Not at all. You'd do 6 for Prestia in a heartbeat. If your 1st round pick in the draft turned out like him, you'd be stoked. This takes out the guess work.
Totally agree. People totally overrate draft picks given the risk they come with. Look at the Giants 2014 haul - picks 4,6 and 7 have barely played a game and are all likely to leave for the equivalent of peanuts.

Prestia is a gun and you know what you're getting. Suns should hold to demanding 6 and nothing higher than around 50 in return.

Well if the rumour that Carlton turned down Brisbane's offer of Rockliff for 24 whilst paying 25% of Rocky's salary, I still think this could get done:

13, 2017 1st for Gibbs, 24
24 for Rocky
I have a better idea.

13 for Gibbs
Lyons for 26
26 for Rockliff

Keep our 2017 picks

He's had a lot of injuries though? ........great pace and really good player, i agree

Interesting that so many clubs happy to trade their first round picks this year ? .......i am seeing a good dept draft, but not the franchise players with game changing abilities ......time is always the determiner of that though
He has also played a lot of quality football

He has ripped us a new one on couple occasions

Hawthorn look in real damage control

Lewis is majorly pissed off, he accepted less money on his latest contract deal to keep the group together and the pushing out Mitchell with the shopping around of other players to bring in Mitchell and O'Meara has not gone down well with him

If O'Meara gets traded in and considering the moves the club has made to bring him in he will come to the club with even more pressure to not only get on the park but to perform

If they play him in the midfield. But he has trained and played in the backline so far, and we have had no indication that will change soon. The people who want to see him in the midfield are himself and fans (some anyway) but not the coaches, it seems.
The last couple of games in the SANFL we have played him off half back and the wing.

O'Meara deal needs to happen sooner than later in order to find a 3rd or 4th party to trade for Gibbs

Caddy is a interesting one to see if anything develops
Talk was yesterday that Caddy was interested in going to Richmond, Richmond want him but Geelong don't want to give up a player for Delidio as part of the trade.

I like the look of this except Brisbane get short changed. 1 pick for their Captain and one of their best players. Not fair on them.

He is also a tackling machine. Tackles more than Sloane

He is also a bigger magnet than Thommo ever was. His use of the ball is not eliute, but it's not terrible either

Gibbs or Rocky would improve our team a decent amount. Both in would be drool worthy and put us right in top 4 calculations again with even more of a chance of making it
Rockliff is good with hand and prefers a short kick but clean and gets to the right spaces. Great tackler. Smart footballer but does tend to have an onfiield whinge from time to time. I could see Tex pulling him into line if he ever came to us. IMO Prestia and Rockliff are similar players but you would go for Prestia first due to age. Rocky and M.Crouch extracting the ball to Gibbs, B.Crouch, Cameron and Sloane sounds very exciting. Thommo gets the ball but his disposal has gone a bit fumbly of late.

this week, the Hawks!
Moderator #3,598
Just picked up the paperwork for my upcoming trip to Hawai'i so in a good mood...

What I'm thinking

We want
- Gibbs
- Wroklyffe
- currency for Jarman
- currency for Edwards in 2017

And I think it's possible with what we've got, if there's any truth to the rumours

13 for Gibbs
Next year's 2nd and 3rd for Rocky and a late 2nd / 3rd this year
The late 2nd / 3rd this year for Jarman
Next year's 1st for Edwards

I'm in a cafe waiting for GF so I'll have a think with actual draft Picks and values later

Hope their fall from grace is a fast and full of sydney- like locker room arguments
