Traded Jason Horne-Francis [to Port Adelaide in multi-club trade]

Are GWS looking to use picks 3, 12, 15, 18 and 19 purely for the draft? Or do they want to get some players in via trade?

Maybe we could upgrade pick 33 or 43 for one those later picks and offer up Byrne-Jones or Bonner?

We genuinely need to trade away a player for 2nd round. Can't see it happening another way.

Hayes, Drew, Bonner, DBJ, Farrell. DBJ with most value in that lot perhaps as an All-Australian and club BnF although he was off it best this year. I know he just resigned but yeah either him or Drew

In all seriousness North have actually done fine out of this deal. So have West Coast. GWS showed up, bent over and handed over the lube to make it work for everyone else, and I salute them for it.
Yeah I think north have done well. What more can you hope for to get for a player that wants out than a similar pick + a future 1st on top. That’s a good deal.

Also west coast, despite people knocking them to get out of pick 2 and the private school vic boys and into hewett territory , whose not far behind, if at all those vic boys plus get another pick. That’s good for them.

Ports given up a lot, but the fact we get future 2nds and 3rds back helps a lot,

In the end rozee butters jhf Bergman sinn to look forward too in our midfield.

I really rate that group of players as a future midfield. High end young talent there.
 
Don’t worry when other clubs raid you in the future I expect the same logic from you instead of demanding players
And you'll get it, because I'm not a delusional flog. Enjoy being wrong.
 

What I don't understand if someone is homesick not just JHF nominate in this instance get me back to an SA club I remember Tim Kelly playing the extra year at Geelong as he wanted to get home to WC if he'd been open to Fremantle from the get-go may have got back to WA 12 months earlier. Many would have a preference that is natural but if the main underlying factor is I want to get home due being homesick then nominate just back to your state.

If a Sydney lad wants to get back home as he is homesick nominate a NSW club. Don't do a Kelly and say I only won't to get home if I get to WC.

I think this deal works really well for you. 2 cracks at the best young vic talent in this draft plus a future first
And getting rid of a guy who was problematic for you this year. I think north should be pretty happy.
Agree - this has worked out well all round. Freo set a trend taking 3 WA boys in their 1st 3 picks - I think more clubs will start to target local.

Most of the top picks this year are Vic kids.
 
I'm fine with the deal. You got us a pick in the top 5 & a future first, which is what I wanted.

Now to death ride...
We didn't even have to give up Bonner! Hahahahahaha.

Next time you spend a week being this smug, try to make sure you're not wildly wrong. xo

Not convinced you really want an answer to this.
 
Port have done pretty well here, there is a bit of a drop IMO at that stage of the draft but North will likely trade up to 2 anyway so it shouldn't matter too much.

The Power are probably 50/50 to make the 8, F1 is maybe 8-12?

Surprised a senior player, even a 'junior' senior player eg Bergman wasn't a sticking point.

Have you seen Esva play?
If it is for pick 33 in a weak draft, I am happy to take the punt on a big bodied guy who we can try out as a big back. We do not have one.
