[Michaels]

Plpppp

Cumming can’t kick. No chance we take him

can definitely kick.

It’s more than fine.

 

[tiger_tough]

Sounds like there’s a chance you guys might have pick 2 and 3…

 

[tigs2010]

Tom McGuane in the open pool for ND.

Pies allergic to yoof

Brisbane want 16 for Starcevich so:

1/They can GAGF
2/Starcevich comes via FA for free
3/Robertson comes via PSD for free
4/Bid on Annable at #1
5/SYD or COLL to make a band 1 FA bid

Whether or not 5/ happens is what should interest you.

Yeah that's not happening lol

It's $5 million in sign on bonuses but $3 million can be spent on one player I think.

'In addition the club received a $5 million sign-on bonus to sit outside the salary cap for the first two years in the competition.'

$5m across 2-years. Maximum of $3m in any one season … can go to 1 x player or 50 ….

Swans very clearly have the cap space and appetite for a KPF (Curnow) and we have a great relationship with them.

26yo Oscar Allen for free or 28yo Charlie Curnow for 1R, F1 and Hayward?

A dual premiership player …Eagles rate him so highly offering $4.5m over 5-years. And you think asking for 16 (which will be mid-20’s) is unreasonable?

 

[Aristotle Pickett the3rd]

If the top end of the draft is overrated/not as good as most years, why would you want to trade back? Surely the answer is that we take the picks as early as possible so that we get the pick of the best available talent

Because the players from pick 5 to pick 15 are about the same or just a little worse than picks 3 and 4 this year

Which means they can go after a superstar

Yes when he’s a free agent and should come at zero draft cost. We wouldn’t offer that much if he wasn’t a free agent.

Still doesn't make sense, unless you're trying to say that taking 4+ players in that 5-15 range gets us more quality that just taking the 2 at 3 & 4

 

[eaglevision]

Yep. After a bounty last year you need quality, not quantity.

26yo Oscar Allen for free or 28yo Charlie Curnow for 1R, F1 and Hayward?

Massive downgrade from Curnow to Allen though if they think they can win a flag.

Secondly Allen will just sign with Brisbane.

Lastly you would take Starc in PSD and let Dev rot lol

 

[Aristotle Pickett the3rd]

I meant same or a little worse for picks 5 to 15 not a little better.

Trade pick 3 for picks 9 and 15 for example. There's a good chance those two picks will be as good as pick 3.
Phantom drafts have Sharp going from anywhere between 3 and 15 for example.

 

[Aristotle Pickett the3rd]

You guys seem to forget this draft has weak top end for some unknown reason.

A lot of you have got draft fever and are building up certain players that may well be just good contributers.
Watch what happens, we will be splitting picks.

If you post it another 1000 times it could happen

favorite player senior or junior !!!!!

Allen and Starcevich free agency cancels out. You keep end of first round pick. Of course that wont happen, but Lions have done you an absolute solid to give Allen a package to activate tier1… which is crazy for what Allen has produced over his career. So in reality Eagles owe the Lions and should pay ‘overs’ for Starcevich, not the other way around.

 

[bc27]

I could see Dyson Sharp falling outside of the top 10

 

[hammer180]

Worst case scenario, we lose 1 or 2 and receive outrageously good draft currency in the trade. None of them are free agents.

Certainly nothing worth catastrophising over atm.

The issue is the there is a rule set where if you are out of contract they can get you as a free agent, we will only have a draft compensation pick in that scenario rather then a trade (one player per team).

 

[Aristotle Pickett the3rd]

It doesn't automatically work that there is a clear deliniation in talent from pick to pick .
