I wouldn't be surprised if our plan is actually to trade out pick 47 once it comes up (presumably it'll have come in to around the 36 to 40 mark by then).

Then we will be able to match any Whan bid with the pick in the next round that will come back into existence. If there is no bid at all then we can take a DFA.
 
Ps I haven’t run the numbers before I get

All of a sudden the trade looks better
It’s the other parts of the trade that has everyone worked incl. me. Essentially improving both WC and Brisbane when the two of them couldn’t strike a deal.

Brisbane in particular get 45 and 51 when they shouldn’t need to. Especially bewildering when I hear comments along the lines of improving our position in the draft. If we had retained those picks. Then we could have used 45 and 47 to get further up the draft or otherwise at least demand F3 for the privilege of getting those additional picks. West Coast and Brisbane and Freo could have done a three way F3 swap so we end up with WC F3 for example.

Bloods culture is a myth that refuses to die. I don't think it's existed since Kelly and then Kirk retired.
 
Doesn't matter if they give up draft picks and players anyway.

They still have 2 top 30 rated academy players this year.

This is the biggest advantage of the academy rules as is.

Draft picks are a different currency for the NSW/QLD teams.

Picks I can understand, I doubt those academy kids are going to kick 30 goals and lay 60+ tackles next year, which is what they are giving up if they trade Hayward.
 
I haven't been following the trade period that closely so I checked the AFL app trade tracker to catch up.

After seeing this I rushed here to see the melts and was left very disappointed 😂
Apparently it just re-enforces how bad the draft is that GWS would throw away pick 27 to move up two spots, instead of highlighting how bad it was we let WC move up 7 spots and then gave them a sweetener

That is a typo is 37 not 27

Essendon have 27
 
Gold Coast are looking to trade pick 15 for two picks in the mid-late 20s, in further evidence that 12 and 33 for 19 and 23 is about right this trade period

You mean the opposite right?


Further evidence that our trade was dog shit
