I'm wondering did we change tack late?

Did the price for Petracca push our asking price higher? It looks like we sought the additional first and in giving back second rounders lost our hand with Khamis.

You do that 10/10 times for the additional first, but I'd already emotionally invested in Buku...seems like a good dude.

Carlton when they cut players due to no fault of their own. Do we help them still?
Really feel for them as I think they are worth persisting with. Very sad 😔
I'd cut & pay out both Lij and 1 of Fog or Boyd to keep those 2 on the list. Both (especially Willie) exemplify what the club is asking from the players - team first, play for the logo, and leave it all out there.

Hypothetically... Say we take Ah Chee in the PSD and he doesn't kick up a huge stink about it... This forward line actually looks better than it did this year lmao.

KPD depth is still a massive issue for me. Need to pick up a Derksen or Blight type as a DFA imo, give Dean the opportunity to develop in the VFL and build up his body to compete with the AFL level KPFs.


Lachie Cowan - Jacob Weitering - Harry Dean
Ollie Florent - Nick Haynes - Nic Newman

Ollie Hollands - Patrick Cripps - Campbell Chesser
Marc Pittonet - Jagga Smith - Sam Walsh

Ben Ainsworth - Hudson O'Keefe - Zac Williams
Will Hayward - Harry Mckay - Callum Ah Chee

Adam Cerra - Ashton Moir - Matthew Cottrell - Adam Saad - George Hewett
I was wondering what will happen with him, even if it was for one season and then trade him for a 2nd or more, that’s good business.
 
Can't see us as a chance for Ah Chee, either due to list spaces (tight for us), plus salary cap. I reckon for Adelaide to get Ah Chee in the PSD, they're going to have to put a massive first year salary on Ah Chee, and still hope to navigate past clubs like North, Richmond, WC, etc... It'll be an interesting watch...
If we have the cap space for him take him. Then try and trade him for a first rounder next year to Adelaide

I actually think Fog is another heart and soul player, but with Hayward and Ainsworth coming in, Moir looking like he is ready to take the next step, and Kemp returning in the course of this year, some hard calls will need to be made. And I'd be interested in opinions of where Ison, Gresham and Clarke stand in relation to White and F.Young...
 
Has to be some very nervous players atm.

Picks 9 & 11 looking to be upgraded for Top 4-5 pick
Harry Dean
Jack Ison
Looking at Gresham and/or Clarke
Looking at DFA/SSP possibilities for KPD

We have 3 spots and could need up to 6

I posted this a month ago but a contracted player or two could easily be cut

Elijah, White, McGovern, Binns, Fogarty are all a watch IMO

I'd call it more a necessity than an option.

We only have one spot - at least until further cuts are made.

I can't see us adding any more than 4 players from this point. We just don't have the list spots.

I also can't see us getting a top 4-5 pick. We might upgrade 9 slightly, but we can't use up both picks to get ahead of a Dean bid, as we'd then not have anything to match a bid with.

Current picks: 9, 11, 43, 54, 67, 72

At this stage I think we just use 9 on Dean. 11 on best available, or trade it to 2026 maybe with a pick back at ~30 to match Ison. We won't take all of 43, 54, 67, 72 into the draft, we don't have the spots. I expect we might try trading these in the next few weeks.

I hope we are more active with trading picks - using 9 on Dean would only be of benefit fi that managed toi convince the AFL not to go too hard on F/S and NGA in 2026, That may be a bit of stretch tho

Im not sure if we rate someine enough at the upper end of the draft to try to trade down, if not Id like to be trading 9 and 11 into points for this year and picks next year

Unfortunately on that basis and the commentary out of CFC, EH will make way. His manager is sprouting the right words and says he’s in ripping nick and ready to go (hopefully that’s with us, as EH is wishing as well).

Unnecessary move re-signing up Motlop.

Fogarty shouldn’t get a look in for ‘26.
Binns has much to work on with his disposal and physicality.

McGovern isn’t a KPP but a forward back up as a pseudo key post but he’d need to be contested and involved/running.

We def need some bigger bodies in reserve (potentially mainstays) in the KPP roles. CHB is a hole ATM.
We obv have the planned Buku role (was mentioned we saw him as a defender) to replace.

Edit: maybe Boyd is more danger, probably lesser dollars and not looking likely for senior opportunities after ‘25’s no show (for whatever reason that was..?)

We can’t use 9 as it won’t be 9 by the time a bid comes. It will be 12. 9 and 11 are far more attractive than 15 and 18 that GC hold and 17 and 23 that Brisbane hold. I really hope we make it hard for them to slide back. One pick needs to either be before a bid or moved to next year.

if we dont rate anyone this year then i would like to trade for points this year and picks next

Who knows what the rules will be next year for bid matching so another future first would be good
 
Whats the chances if Flynn and White aren't retained due to no spots. We offer them a vfl contract and see how they go for maybe a spot on the seniors next year.

Carlton when they cut players due to no fault of their own. Do we help them still?

We should be ridding ourselves of those that continually let us down and reward those that give their all …
