What about George?Would love to see us grab Stengle back, he would walk right back into the team imo. He, Baker and stack can apply the pressure and theyre all very skilful. Crum off Jack, Lynch, Cads
Here's my prediction (based on my deduction only)- we will try to move up as far as we can in the draft with pick swaps but if they don't happen we wont care. We think we can get some very good players with our current first 4-5 picks. We are looking at NGA players as "smokies". That's why we want pick 20 from Norf - that is the last pick to bid on an NGA player with the team being able to match.

Funny how many people are saying trust the club yet it's been reported we've chased both pick 17 and 19 and been beaten to the punch both times.
Was he not injured?Doesn’t make sense to me. Port have Dixon, Marshall and Georgiades. They don’t need another tall forward as Georgiades couldn’t even get a game in the PF. So unless Finlayson or Marshall are planned to play KPD I don’t get this acquisition at all. Weird.

At this rate we're going to go to the draft with 7, 15, 26, 28, and the rest of the picks will go unused.
If we can find a buyer
Our late picks are all inside 50. There will be more than 50 players drafted. Ergo, there will be a buyer for our picks.I get people saying that it's an even draft. But what are we going to do now with the four picks that potentially we will have from 38 onwards now that 17 is off the table? We could have easily matched and bettered the dogs deal. Either they have something cooking for those picks already or they have made things a hell of a lot harder for themselves. Have to say I'm am pretty disappointed at the moment.
For those currently playing at home…
It is good Collingwood have 22 and WB have 23… means 26 and 28 will hold their position (i.e. two less players will be taken before those picks).
It also looks like…
Pick 38 will become 37
Pick 42 will become 41
Pick 47 will become 42
*Pending Dunstan compo.
They gave up next year's first pick for it though .We've had our strongest draft hand in years and had 2 opportunities to capitilise with clubs who need points in Collingwood and Bulldogs.
You can cut it any way you want and say "wait until the end" but not getting pick 17 for backend picks is a failure.
Being passive gets you nowhere.
The Dees never fail to work their way into the draft.
Finally some actionBREAKING: Richmond have sent a future second and third rounder to Carlton for Liam Stocker after mounting pressure from Richmond fans to "do a trade".
Correct. Both might be affordable. Then maybe Brissy might do next years first for 2 x 20's picks given they have a high pick F/S coming next year.The other thing is we can still trade for picks 23 and 22 to give the Bulldogs and Pies more points so they can use other picks
No, that's what it cost Melbourne because they had **** all picks. It SHOULD have cost us a few picks in the 30s and 40s that we already had locked and loaded.Are you willing to trade our future first for 17? Cause that’s what it’s ended up costing. We don’t even know what Freo are giving up for 19 yet but one component is the salary dump that Brodie represents.
A list spot for Brodie that's enough.Wtf are Freo giving up to get that
Spot on. This board has tunnel vision. Plenty of action to be had outside of Dogs and GCS pick. Blue will be desperate for draft picks if it’s looking like they only have 64.Our late picks are all inside 50. There will be more than 50 players drafted. Ergo, there will be a buyer for our picks.
Adelaide now only has 4, 33, 75. They're rebuilding, they will want more picks. Carlton will lose 6 for Cerra and possibly 25, then only have 64. Etc. etc.
Thank you. Thus bring on a R1 or a couple of R2 2022 picks!!Our late picks are all inside 50. There will be more than 50 players drafted. Ergo, there will be a buyer for our picks.

you do know getting 'beaten to the punch' just means we were outbid yeah? If you're buying a house and have a budget of $700k (ie the house is worth taking on a mortgage of $700k) and someone comes in and bids $800k, you don't go and try and top that, you just walk away. Yeah ideally the other party wouldn't have bid and you'd get it for good value, but it's bad list management to pay overs if we don't consider it worth it.Funny how many people are saying trust the club yet it's been reported we've chased both pick 17 and 19 and been beaten to the punch both times.
We went through this last year. Dead were being done and the usual trust the club bulls hit was being padded out. Active clubs grabbed the pies 1st and GCS end of 1st for fu** all while we were “happy” to take our picks to the draft… then we traded it out on the day which suggests we weren’t that fussed on taking it to the draft rather we were too risk adverse to use it when it might of got us something good.
Rather than suggesting the club are all over this, simply accept our team are overly risk adverse and will take what we have to the draft and probably accept mediocre trades on the night.

We couldn't have really beaten what the dogs got in that trade for 17. We would have had to give up 26 and 28.No, that's what it cost Melbourne because they had fu** all picks. It SHOULD have cost us a few picks in the 30s and 40s that we already had locked and loaded.
