Bluemour Discussion Thread XV - Facts Not Welcome

[Jabba73]

I've heard from a very good source that we will either use pick 1 or trade it. NOT both. Lock it in.

Has that even been done before?

 

[thylacine60]

unpresidented...........like the US..........

Oh in American sports you can trade the player you literally just drafted. So if that gets introduced here it will happen.

Carlton drafts Luco at 1 and then dangles him for a King's ransom.

Not sure we should be sharing this. Want other teams to believe in the chance we will pass on our first pick.

Crows are hoping for this.

Not having it. Your source is playing funny buggers.

I'm hearing we will actually trade 1 for 3 and 6, then take pick 1 to the draft.

Hit the draft with 1,3,6

 

[gardiner stand]

It’s not just talk, GC have offered 3 and 6.
2 and 6 and the deal gets done.

sos wants 3 & 6 and every second rounder gc will ever get...........won't happen..........

Holyyy hell!! So if we can’t get Walsh he def wants Luko assured

I’d take 3 & 6 and use em on Rankine and Rozee.

ericpascoe said we're locked in on pick 1 though? Walsh

Its just nonsense, more ridiculous hype created by media, earning a living glamorising the event.
Sam Walsh will be called out at pick 1 as certain as Death and Taxes, ther'll be no trading of pick 1, perhaps our future 1rounder may help us to snare another jet 5 to 10?

 

[gardiner stand]

I’ve got no idea who sos wants but it’s clear he’s got his eye on someone at 6. Maybe sos just doesn’t have Walsh at one and the player he does have at one he can get with 2 and the bonus is he gets a free hit at 6.
Got trust him

I wouldn’t bet on it just yet.

Agree would be a fantastic haul.

I agree. I doubt we will just pass on pick 1, but if we do SOS has a plan. #trustSOS

Yup Silvagni would definitely look at an attractive offer, due dilligence and given the novelty of trading picks during draft with a little shove by AFL to glam it up a bit, who knows it may materialise, most likley GCS given their obvious player retention difficulties

If this is true I have seriously lost faith in the club, definitely won't be renewing my membership. When will they learn.

same - despise you but learning to like posts from shockingly despicable posters.........

Gold Coast source:

• There's interest on both sides to do a deal
• Extremely low likelihood of a deal happening
• Carlton looking for massive overs for #1 (rightly so)
• Gold Coast looking for maximum value with picks 2, 3, 6 (rightly so)
• Only way a deal happens is if a third party is willing to pay both teams their asking price (Adelaide / Port) but the likelihood of that happening through draft picks alone is almost impossible and though there was some discussion during the trade period that was their best chance and nothing came remotely close
• Fully expecting Carlton to draft Walsh
• Expecting Gold Coast to draft Lukosius, Rankine and Rozee/Smith
• Carlton talking to guys in the 2-10 rank is just "due diligence"

 

[cfc4life]

Don't want to be a broken record, but geez I'll be very disappointed if we pass on the chance to pick Walsh.

The most bulletproof mid since Kelly. Kelly. You know the guy everyone is obsessed with picking up next year?

I understand the merits of two great players vs. one but we'd be regretting the decision in five years.
