Analysis The Rebuilds of West Coast and Richmond and their Future Prospects

[Morro]

If Ginbey is a failed mid based on his first season (the time he actually played mid), why do you not consider Lalor a failed mid?

FWIW I rate Lalor, just interested on your justification for this.

was 2025 his first season?

 

[THE_GUN]

it’s actually not pick 24 as academy/FS’s can be picked up by other clubs - Adam Sweid/Lachlan Carmichael.

Richmond received the 31st best player in the draft, calling it pick 24 is massive cope.

But they didnt and he was selected with the 24th live pick ( now that you know what live pick is )
Pick #18 couldnt get Adinsall did it so NO they are not available and only available if you get that player

They are available though, Richmond’s first pick could have got Addinsall if they wanted. If there’s ten academy players than the 1st pick you aren’t calling 11 pick 1.

You’re basing it on 2025?
How can you call Ginbey a failure in a role he didn’t play? The basis of him “failing” as a midfielder would be when he played that role in his rookie season.

Speaking of Addinsall, what a brain fart from the Eagles ‘brains trust’ on draft night.

If they are available then why couldnt we get Patterson / Annable / Dean

No you are being silly kid

Totally normal

If they were smart they would have wiped out the suns early with their picks and got players they wanted
Oh but they had rankings lol

You said you couldn’t get Addinsall, that is blatantly incorrect.

Tigers took the 31st pick in the draft, that is a fact.

I said the eagles couldnt get him with #18 and that pick went to the Suns and eagles had to select another player
looks like you having another bad day with comprehension kid
take a nap

Tigers took the 24th player available - Now that is FACT

Irrelevant, they always had enough points. WCE just banked on GC not taking a 12th string midfielder but I guess they'll just flip him for another first rounder in a couple of years, probably from Richmond.

It’s not a fact, Tigers had more than 24 players available to them on draft night, including Addinsall/Murray.

The trade was pick 38 anyway.

Hilarious they're desperately claiming it wasn't.

Basically flicked Chesser for Young.

All they had to do was bid on Patterson before taking CDT.

Instead they didn’t and flagged early what they were going to do with Addinsal. GC got wind of it and did some extra trades to get more points.

West Coast burned the Ryan compo to trade up and bid for nothing in return.

It was cunning on one side and farcical on another.

If WC don’t trade up they don’t get Lindsay, it’s common knowledge the trade up was to secure one of Addinsall/Lindsay.

Except GC would've still had 5 points left over.

Twomey wrote an entire article on it.

They didn't expect GC to match a bloke who'll never play for them but they also didn't want to miss out on Lindsay.

Sure it was, post draft.
Pre draft they wanted Addinsall. Seeing the west coast recruiting team faces sink when the bid was matched was pretty funny.

Nope. Twomey said there was 5 points in it when you bid on him.

If you bid on Patterson before CDT they wouldn’t have had enough points and Addinsal would have been an Eagle.

The hawks weren’t keen on Lindsay so they pretty much burnt their Ryan compo to move up slightly and take Lindsay even though they didn’t need to.

Bulldogs made an offer to the Hawks to secure Lindsay, rumours Geelong did as well.

Yes we had probably 100 available
But selected the 24th available player.

Looks like your struggling with that , Lets see how Peucker's career goes and if he becomes a good player i will make sure i remind you of that selection and thank the eagles for that pick

#14 for Tyler Young

what a deal

Were Addinsall and Murray available to the Tigers on draft night?

The answer is yes.

Not that’s it’s relevant, the poster wanted pick 21-25 and got pick 31 (not live pick 21-25), then proceeded to pretend to be happy about it.

That was what could be stated as a amateur hour trade by Clarke
But im sure there was a plan, But i just cant work that out maybe our friends here could explain the reasoning

Wasnt Clarke banned from doing the trading ?

 

[THE_GUN]

Were Addinsall and Murray available to the Tigers on draft night?

The answer is Yes.

They were available to the eagles at pick #1 & #2

But they were already gone at the 24th live pick

 

[bzparkes]

#14 for Tyler Young

what a deal

Could be worse.

Could've blown #9 on Josh Gibcus.
