Welcome Liam Baker

Ultimately Hawks are to blame but WC did him dirty. They really needed that pick.

Expect Freo to be difficult still. Even if Baker agrees to go there.
 
I wonder how Graham feels now? He would have been sure that by going to West Coast he was going to be reunited with Bakes.

When does Baker become a free agent? End of 25?

Sign him for another year and let West Coast and Fremantle get in a bidding war for him.

We might get band 1 compensation that way.

Sign Baker up for another year and he will be a free agent in 12 months then all WC have to do is make him an offer he can't refuse and they get him for no pick and we get a first round compensation possibly pick 2 win win.

With Hawthorn pick 14 now off the table, it’s looking more likely that it will be Baker + a pick 10 or 11 for pick 3 and maybe something else.

I wonder if Westcoast are after F1s for Barass so they can chase Warner next year.

The only way bakes gets to west coast is if they trade pick 3 for bakes and pick 10 going back there way !

Hawthorn appear to have reneged on the Barass trade with WCE so this could impact on a potential WCE pick trade for Baker, means Freo could make a play for Bolton/Baker combined.
So do the Hawks still want Barras or have they got cold feet all of a sudden?

Tom Barrass is 29 WC should have accepted 14 and F2 with F3rd going back. Hawks got Battle for nothing so probably not too fussed except for *smile* over Barrass and his player manager.

The crying on PRE should be about this, and not the Brisbane pick swap.
