Saw someone on the draft thread talking about a Logan Purcell who he's pretty sure is connected to us in a few years. Anyone know about him?

He's also very bullish on El Souki as being a very good prospect despite his size.

Purcell will still be in our zone after the adjustment.

El Souki is elite, he'd be getting games for us next year he has the ability to play as a small forward close to goal or high half forward/mid. He has alot of Rankine like traits.
 
Will be interesting to see how the relocations affect player development. For example, why would team A bother pumping resources into a player in their zone now, but whose draft year is 2028. That also happens to be the same year that said players zone becomes teams B's zone?

And teams can't exactly start developing someone from another zone now, who will be in their zone, and also in their draft year in 2028, ahead of time can they?

Think you will see the current players stick to the development program via Ballarat Rebels and Dogs focusing on under 16s in the new areas

When is Purcell’s draft year?
 
How the hell do we get butters and el souki and.. (who else). next year?

Some players will have be traded out for picks ?
We have West and Cooney as well next year
Reckon a few future picks will be traded

If Port are bad and we are good we can effectively trade our entire draft haul over three years (with Tassie coming in) and it's arguably worth less than Port getting pick 2 or 4 or whatever as a compensation pick if Butters walks. So Port would rather take the compensation instead and we have our haul.

Will Buku and Garcia have any trade value at the end of the year? Should we have traded Buku for a future pick?

I'm not sure the presence of a F3 makes a huge difference in the trade balance of trading for an All-Australian player.

It makes a difference in terms of marginal quality you get for fringe player squad depth, but that pales in comparison to the difference between Butters being or not being in your team.
