Trade Week starts next Monday!

Post: # 1157328Post saintspremiers »

I love trade week.

Full of hope but often disappoints.

At least it is a full week this year.

So bring on the rumours!

FWIW I think Pelchen may deliver a trade or two - he prob wants to make a statement and get on the front foot.

If Pelchen wants to make a statement he should just use his mouth and start talking like most people do.

He made a statement by getting the coach to move on.

One or both of Jones and or Peake will be traded, I'm not sure what their market value is but it's inevitable that we make some room in the cap

Hope we are active. Don't mind seeing a change. As long as we don't pick up another richmond player. Seems like we get one every year! :lol:

Save it for Lee Purcell. I hope we do trade, but for draft picks only. Unless we can trade Peake to Freo for Zac Clark.

Pick 120 will be enough for me. Get rid of this big headed egomaniac. At least the 4 blokes who retired(?) put their head over the ball!!!!

i just put this in another topic:

rumour that we're making a play for jack gunston - who has put hawthorn as his preferred club although adel are not satisfied with their offer - apparently st kilda have put an offer on the table that they are

if true my guess it involves:

offloading stanley who is not contracted and a sa kid
using pick 20
three way deal involving jones + player/pick to eagles > brad ebert to crows > gunston to st k

If we were to trade Stanley then we would definitely would have to draft a ruckman in this year's draft. Interesting though.

How about:

Jones to Fremantle for pick 56

Gunston to St Kilda for pick 20
(if that isn't enough then through in pick 56 to sweeten the deal)

it would have to be better than the roos offer of pick 18 (rumoured).

Where are you hearing these rumours Old Mate? Big footy?

Not sure how we can improve our offer any more than our first pick. Pick 18 is better than 20 + a third rounder or peripheral player like Stanley.

Maybe

Picks 20, 42 for Gunston and pick 53

If we trade it must be for picks only. And really unless a player wants to leave why would you trade a regular for a third rounder. Just leave trade period alone.

Maybe someone like Gunston, who is a young potential medium forward is better than what we might pick up at 20 in the draft.

Yep but to get young talent means you are going to lose a first or second round pick. Isnt that what people are bagging RL for. Anyway the way i see it young must be really young, like under 22 because if they any older they wont help us in the next rebuild.

Schneider and Dempster werent old. Anyway you are happy to lose a first or second rounder obviously. That isnt what I would do. With inly about 10 trades this year and no coach I cant see us being big players.

According to Ameet Bains or whatever his name is, we won't be doing much in trade week.
