AXVS: TRADE DISCUSSION (2014/15)

I'm not that quick to the banhammer :P.

So while still reviewing what has been said, it is possible that a suspension still may be handed out, but a few coaches have been sent warnings for their actions, and I'd like to repeat that their behaviour has been seen as inappropriate.

That being said, it's definitely time for everyone to move on from the trade decision now. The decision was made and it will stand. End of discussion.

I am extremely disappointed in the backlash that ensued after the committee had made their decision. All this "banter" that we have had may be seen by some as a bit of harmless banter, but in the end it has contributed to one coach leaving the competition, an assistant de-activating his account and a member of our trade committee resigning.

To be honest, I don't really have the patience to deal with this issue any longer, so this is a general warning to all coaches. Any more discussion on the trade, or anything to do with it will quite possibly result in some form of suspension, and it's time for everyone to move on now.

Well said BB.

Btw, the Official trade thread is locked? Is that meant to be locked?

I'm going to unlock the thread now, I think we have all moved past the issue now, so I am prepared to re-open it.

I'll correct BB, one suspension may follow, which is obvious in who it would be... But last I'll say on the matter in general as everybody else has moved on.

Getting back on track.

I've got one list movement out left this period but no ins so i'm throwing the following players on the table and looking for a draft pick in return.

I will be taking the best deal (not necessarily the best pick) for one of these players so if you're interested then let me know.

Dean Terlich, Scott McMahon, Jason Winderlich, Alan Toovey, Travis Varcoe, Clinton Jones (if you think he'll get picked up) and Eddie Betts.

PS - I could package a couple of these guys together or one of these guys and someone else for a first round draft pick.

PPS - Anyone who would trade their first round draft pick please let me know.

Out of curiosity, is the trade period temporarily suspended? The reason I ask is because of Coop's resignation there's one team without a coach.

JBs-Hawks · October 28, 2014, 03:59:30 PM

Why would that suspend other teams trading?

Was kind of hoping Memph would rock up and say "so can someone re-cap what I've missed" :P

Well, iirc trading was suspended while we had the drafts for Rio/Christchurch in Worlds and while the new coaches were decided upon so I assumed a similar course of action would be taken here.

That was a full re-draft of the two teams though. Don't think trading has been suspended in the past when just filling a coaching possie

Would be good if we could convince Koop to come back too

Fair enough, still very unclear on a majority of AXVs procedures. Didn't think there was too much harm in asking.
