2015 Draft Discussion

[Ironmonger]

Anyway, sorry to everyone for my terrible effort to figure out the numbers earlier in this thread.

I think the key number tonight is 11 - if Hipwood goes before then, the third in our quintet of picks gets moved back, and won't be a factor in matching a bid for Keays, which likely means our highest live pick post the academy players is somewhere in the 40s.

If Hipwood goes at 12 or below, then we'll most likely have pick 36 in the draft after matching Keays' bid, if everything goes as scripted. I think, but I'm not sure, that's also the case if Hipwood goes at 11.

Mr MM (and me) wanted to know what this bidding system is about....I had no idea, told him I would ask my peeps

Ok, Huddo and BJohnson have just explained the bidding system.......bloody hell, even Einstein would find it difficult to follow!

 

[Groo2]

But what if Carlton take Schache?

Come on Browndog one more time!

 

[Ironmonger]

Geez I like Matt Kennedy.

 

[pulpdriver]

Can't wait for Schache to officially be a Lion.

Weird year. Since the players we're taking are a foregone conclusion waiting for bids and to see who we'll be in a position to take with our fourth pick is the only real surprises we can get. Not complaining, just a strange, new feeling.

Your numbers were good, if we're required to use that 3rd pick on Hipwood, we lose that pick but the remaining points are credited for other academy players (First round selections only.)

Would rage really hard if the other clubs screw us over

Ah, not quite. That's only where you're matching a first round bid with one pick with a points value higher than what you need to match. That was my mistake.

My numbers carried over the points even when multiple picks were used to match a first round bid, which is wrong.

Bottom line, it's not quite as good as what I thought.

[Crawb]

[Toffee Lion]

This is the moment we start our journey back to the top.

Keays/Schache/Hipwood on top of the last few years of brilliant drafting.

Hype train is now boarding.

 

[Balony_pony16]

But what if Carlton take Schache?

We take Weitering and back ourselves to keep him... could be a huge win for us

 

[HowYouDoin]

Lol hard at the Adelaide crowd.

 

[The Flying Belgian]

 

[HowYouDoin]

Fawwwwkkkkk

 

[lionshine]

Weitering a Blue.

 

[lion4life]

Carlton take Weitering

Welcome Schache.

 

[Toffee Lion]

Why can't they do it like the NBA.

Get Huddo to say:

"With the first pick in the 2015 AFL draft, the Carlton Blues select: Jacob Weitering.

Oh well, Schache time!

 

[carnthemlions]

Thanks Carlton.

 

[Viceregal]

I guess the SEN feed is behind since they have only just mentioned Carlton now?
