2016 Pre-Trade Phantom

[Matty411]

With trade period just days away and the draft combine beginning, I thought I'd throw up a two-round phantom with the way I see things possibly panning out - bids included based on current picks. I'll revise this at end of trade/FA period.

I've tried to keep team needs in mind as well as the likeliness of bids coming and being subsequently matched. Happy to hear feedback.

So who exactly do you think won the premiership this year?

S*** my bad CM - obviously hadn't updated the order since Saturday! Will edit now

Ha, no worries. You could also include all the second round picks instead of stopping at Geelong, I would like to see who you have going to us in the second.

Thought I'd cap it at the 2nd round. Might try a full phantom once we know the final order and have had the combine, but don't know enough about it at this stage to confidently suggest past that range. Reckon Cats could pull out something interesting, so who knows. Another Stephen Wells special perhaps?

You've capped it early in the second round though - second round doesn't stop at pick 36, it stops at the premiership winner's second pick (or whoever has it if they traded). Since priority picks, compensation pick, and new academy rules, the size of the rounds changes every year.

Ahh I see - still a bit new to this caper given so many likely bids for A/S and F/S players. So you're saying it'd finish at 38 should it pan out this way? Next rung would have these guys in there:

Cedric Cox, Macraedie (GWS A/S), Sam Walker, Jonty Scharenberg, Zac Fisher, Callan Wellings, Myles Poholke and Ryan Garthwaite.

Take your pick!

Yep, it'd stop at 38.

Coin flip between Cox and Fisher. Probably Cox by a nose.

Will be annoyed if Bowes gets bid on that high - if he were in the open draft I would doubt he would get taken that early.
Do you not see Brad Scheer getting bid on in the second round?

I see Bowes rated among top three picks and if was open draft, Lions a certainty to take him there being QLDer. Scheer should get bid on in there as well. Bit of a lottery at this point.

Matty411 brisbane now have pick 19 PP, will be some good players available there by the look of it, would love the player you have there now ie. Daniel Venables.

 

[briztoon]

If you want to slot Brisbane's priority pick in to 19 you can just select Alex Witherden there, and then with our pick 21 (formerly pick 20 - moved back one slot by the PP) you can select Dylan Clarke.

All talk is on GWS not matching Mutch inside the top 30 what makes you think they will?... also be suprised if Richmond take Ainsworth with Taranto and Scrimshaw there (fit Rich needs more in my view)... Also think you mean Jake Waterman not Alex

WA lads grouped as sections 13 thru 18 inclusive ? Seems a bit clumsy or did this really just happen by chance .

Far too high for me having seen much of them

Not intentional but think it could happen.

 

[missionpossible]

Can we lock that draft in please, oh I think you will find GC have Ports second round pick

 

[CrusaderAussie1]

No locking in for quite a while plenty of draft shuffling to go

Hoping that Waterman won't cost us a pick quite that high. I can see us picking up SPP with our first pick, not sure he's worth it but we seem keen.

Did you see the under 18s allstars? pretty bullocking and demanding

Oh definitely I love that about him, it's mainly his footskills that concern me. I feel he is more of a late first round pick/early second rounder but I suppose he's worth the pick on potential if we go down that path.

 

[dajesmac]

Heads up, there is no Alex Waterman. It's Alec, and he was draft two years ago and subsequently delisted.

You're thinking of Jake.

SPP equal second in clean hands drill , 3rd agility , top ten.

Won't mean much for him and other Academy lads whose test records are used much by clubs.



Bit more to his game than muscle and grunt.


Almost all done for these lads at Combine , long wait until end November for them .

Ten (I think) of the expected high draftees invited to Sydney function balance watching TV Friday not knowing where they are living in 2 days time . The expectation is to be on the plane (if necessary) Sunday .
