If we keep Pick 1 and draft Sam Wash = 
If we trade Pick 1 for 3&6 =
My opinion is that there will be hardly a trade in the 1st round though. The easist way to lose a longterm job as a List Manager is to stick your head out and get it wrong. I think the 18 List Managers will be cautious and seeing that all 18 are competant i can't see anyone getting a clear "win". Therefore i think caution will reign.
The exception is Gold Coast. Not because they are incompetant now, but because they have unique circumstances right now. They have a whole set of issues that no other club has.
The 2 trades that i've long thought are "some" chance are:
GC swap 3&6 for Sam Walsh.
or
GC trade Pick 3, 24 and 29 for Adelaide's Picks 8, 13 and 15.
I've posted my reasons for both before.
Besides GC, maybe StKilda might swap 4 for Adelaide's 8 & 13 if they think one of their supposed list of six is a chance of getting to 8.
It's gonna be a fun 3 weeks though. Even though the rule changes have kinda killed the interest in Phantom's post trade week it has added a lot of time for speculation. And every FigBootier loves a bit of good ol speculation.

that would be a fantastic result..... given we already brought in McGovern, I can't see us taking JL or the King brothers.
Who’s ur top 6 arrow in draft
Cal Twomey is hinting at a Top 8 in his latest column as:
1. Carlton: Walsh (possibly Lukosius)
2. GC: Lukosius (Walsh if there)
3. GC: Rankine
4. StKilda: M.King (possibly Smith)
5. Port: Rozee
6. GC: Caldwell
7. WB: Smith
8. Adelaide: B.King
1. Carlton: Walsh (possibly Lukosius)
2. GC: Lukosius (Walsh if there)
3. GC: Rankine
4. StKilda: M.King (possibly Smith)
5. Port: Rozee
6. GC: Caldwell
7. WB: Smith
8. Adelaide: B.King

I'd rather start with our future 3rd, and milk the supposed premium that Walsh is worth.
We won't be able to do either of those trades without offering a little more up, and that would mean throwing our future first into the mix. That requires AFL approval, so we'd want to make sure it was a good deal for us to improve our list long term, or they won't approve it.
Max is definitely the higher rated brother.
Couple of rumours on the D&T boards.
GC going for the SA trifecta with Hately. (Poster claiming this from a loose lipped Craig Cameron.)
Port keen on Smith. (Source, Mother of Bailey)

Would depend who you talk to I suppose. Max is injured and while he has proven himself as a forward its Ben who has shown he is just as capable up forward as he is downback. Ben is a ridgy-didge swingman so I reckon of the two he gets picked first.

His versatility counts against him when you watch the production of his brother.

very bad - democrats want our country flooded with bad things - terrible people - maga!
I always take notice of what you write Dravid
.....but parents are just lovely aren't theyA couple years ago a mate of mine's son was highly rated. The ol man was convinced that 3 clubs had promised to use their 1st Rounder on him in interviews. He went mid 2nd Round after all those 3 clubs passed(once twice) and he ended up going to another club altogether.
In saying that, it has been mentioned by others that Smith is in Port's mix. As he should as they hold 5 and 10. Likely to be strongly considered at 5 and a small chance to be there at 10.

Youre probably right, I have heard Ben needs to work on his set shots but is otherwise a wonderful field kick and with kick ins. Still reckon he goes first of the two though.
bingo...and thats why we should do it...if offered....unless walsh is the next judd,and that much better,than the rest,id do it in a heartbeat.

Contacted my mate, who rang his ADE source.
He’s heard a couple of things in light of the proposed trade for 3&6 and also the supposed visit by Lukosius and Rozee. He threw this up. 1 - Walsh, 2 - King, 3 - Lukosius, 4 - King, 5 - Rankine, 6 - Rozee. PA are apparently keen on Rankine to replace Wingard and reckon on him falling. GC want Walsh and also a KPP to replace Lynch. He thinks GC will go King as Lukosius won’t be KP, rather utility, and the fail to remain in QLD is a factor. He thinks the two SA boys mentioned would stay and play in Vic, doesn’t think Rankine would though from what he’s heard.
If all this scuttlebutt is true, I’d be happy with what he’s thrown up.

We may give one of those 3rds, as part of the deal

Not sure about Twomey anymore. Doesn’t seem to be as on it as he used to
