I'm confused. Is it a good idea or a bad idea?

Everyone agreed that it wasn’t a bad idea.

Season 4 is the greatest season no doubt

Season 4 is the greatest season no doubt

It's exceptional, although just about anything from S4-7 is gold. Some great episodes in seasons other side of that range, but they're the most consistently top notch

Homer Simpson Vs New York City is a great season 9 ep imo. Easily in my top 3

However i can also see why they removed it from syndication and then censored it... But they don't pretend it didn't exist like that one season 2 ep

 

[ABray10]

Given everyone is trying to trade into this draft the cost is likely to be quite high. I would like to see us go the other way, offer Bombers a chance to trade up from 9 to 5 for their future first, and some crap later picks to help them with points.

If the top end of the draft is as deep as they say might not impact us much for our first pick, but I would say it will give us about pick 7-10 next year for doing it. Bombers get ahead of the Kako bid so think they would take it.

Only way it could be better is if we also managed to ditch Oliver for Cats future 1st. Puts us in a good position next year whether we go to shit, enter the dreaded mid-table or somehow against all odds bounce back.

I would include season 3 in that maybe even 2. Season 1 is a bit raw but still some good stuff. Season 8 is definitely the beginning of the decline imo.

I still think there is a group that's top end talent in this draft. With pick 5 we can grab one.

It will be hilarious when Geelong fail to get its deals done. Imagine bringing a contracted bloke down to a farm for a wine and shmooze and then leak it to the media only for them to absolutely fail at getting close to a trade done.

Lurking on Cats board those blokes are all over him to.

Dogs should be holding out for more than cats first. Smith is worth more than that. There’s are also the off field concerns over smith so perhaps that’s why cats think they can get him cheap.

Dunno, coming off an ACL major off-field concerns, out of form even before his injury plus he's ooc. Feels about right imv.

Cats pick will be 20. I would be wanting more for Smith to.

Proven performer, top pick, great engine and has an off field following. ACL won’t have an impact like it didn’t with Trac.

There whole recruitment strategy is just trying to buy blokes at a low and then try offer ridiculous under. Will end up with egg on there face if they can’t get them done.

Dogs will fold. He's OOC, they won't walk him to the draft.

Cats will throw in more, likely F3 is my guess.

Who cares about a pick in the 50's?

Bulldogs?

What do you think would even up the deal?

May even need to be a F2.

 

[Bluelegs]

Nevermind.

 

[I Love Lamb]

Nevermind.

At you trying to be funny about 2 completely different scenarios?

I’m not.

So again, what do you think will they trade Smith for?

 

[ABray10]

Maybe, but it seems like all of FOS, Smith and Draper could be gone. The next wave probably stretches out to 9-10 anyway, and may not be a big difference in quality if this draft is as deep as they way. If it gives us an additional top 10 pick next year it is worth it to me, we have a lot of gaps.

 

[markm106]

Dogs will relent. But expect a little more to be thrown in.

A future third is basically a token pick, as you've alluded to yourself. I already said the dogs will fold. If they accept a single first with some paltry late pick as steak knives then I would say that is absolutely the dogs folding.

 

[I Love Lamb]

Mackie thinking he can get both deals done without losing any players is absolutely comical. Especially since he doesn’t even want to pay Oliver’s salary. Bloke is quickly getting a rep, especially after his dealings last year on Esava.
