Stafford re-signs

The Haynes rumour can't be right surely?

Well, we've heard alot of rumours this week.

As yet, I look up the AFL trade tracker and I see 4 deals, and all of them seem reasonable down the line deals.

Strangely no player swaps as yet. Maybe the trade makers are better at valuing players in terms of draft picks, rather than valuing players against each other.

Cole = Pick 23, Hay = two first rounders????? Plenty of suckers out there.
 
Send Stafford a waste basket and 51 cm black & white tv to Hawks
Everitt to Swans
the guy who stands behind the goals at the SCG and the cast of Home & Away to
Carlton
Fevola/Camporeale to Hawks
Hodge to Tigers

and everyone are winners :clap :bdaygrin :clapping

Cole, similar to Tivers, I would have valued as a 2nd round draft pick.

Hay = two 1st round picks? Well that deal got over the line, didn't it?

A reasonable demand, and a deal gets done.
 
From the deal that have happened, it gives us some currency in the current market.

Cole 2nd ROunder. Fair enough, that means Tiva, Krak, Hyde are worth second rounders.
Petts not so sure, proably a second rounder but if your were going to rob anyone it would be with Pettifer. I think ship him to brissy for selwood. That would be great.
If Johnny Hay is worth two first rounders then Razor Hall is worth at lest one first rounder or a good player. talls are worth more.

Not saying these are the right vaules but judging on what has happened so far, that is the way I would be thinking.
 
Just saw, Ted Richards to Sydney for effectively a 2nd round choice.

Seem to be plenty of these 2nd round choices going about.

Come on Greg, now it's time to do your stuff. We'd like 1 or 2 extra 2nd round draft choices.

Off you go. Do your stuff. ;)
 
The talk of the National Draft being light this year has definately "upped"  the trade currency from what most seemed to think is fair.  Perceptions and realities?  Realities are the deals being done:
