Possibly, he's not worth any more than your second rounder.
He wouldn't get a game for you
Interesting discussion.
Those picks will move a little in my opinion. What about pick 6 and 11 for pick 1?
Guess it comes down to the quality/depth of the draft.

Thommo done, Douglas nearing the end and DMac finishing up horrendous 4x4 contract we could use some midfield grunt

Probably not worth us trading him for pick 34-36, he isn't worth much more than that but unless we needed a pick like that to get a deal done he probably has more value to us than 35ish

i think that it might suit brisbanes needs more to do some "boutique trading". by that i mean trade down in drafts to have multiple picks like 6 & 11 rather than 1. with high draft picks you are under pressure to take the best player regardless and then two years later attempt to talk him out of going home. with 6 & 11 they can draft queensland kids or kids committed to staying even if they are not the 6th & 11th best players (did i see that berry has resigned?). cant keep having schache scenarios.
1. You need to have Academy kids worth drafting.
2. Depends on the depth of the draft class and Brisbane's needs.
I would put picks 1, 12 & 19 on the table to try and get picks 3 and 6 and say 25.

No club would be stupid enough to offer that much for Kruezer when you can get him for cash under free agency. You will get a second round compensation selection.

You run the massive risk of someone bidding at 2 for your Academy kid (who is definitely going to be a early first rounder). Your best play is take the best kid you feel suits you at 1 (doesn't have to be the best player), and then you get your tall academy kid. There is two elite talents for you this draft.

He's one I'd like Sydney to have a look at. Right age bracket, would suit our side as we rejuvenate our midfield. Worth a punt at a mid 2nd/3rd level. However you are 100% correct if I were St Kilda I'd keep him, you are selling him at the worst possible time.

Would think that Kreuzer would draw offers that would get us an end of round 1 compensation pick at worst (band 2). How many game changing ruckmen who are in effect also an extra mid are there likely to be on the market. Would imagine with the salary cap going up by over $2mill then offers of 3 years @$750K (bearing in mind you have to pay a bit extra to get a player to leave) would be forthcoming. Has comfortable defeated Nankervis, Luenberger, Sinclair and Grundy this year and broke even with Gawn. Has missed 2 games in the last 2 years (so much for failing medicals), entering his prime years as a ruckman and players love playing with him. Worth a lot more to us than pick 19 though.

There is no way you would get band 1, if he does, they need to re-do the band 1/2 stipulations. In fact they should be doing that now anyway. The old 550k is now 700k a season. There is a lot more money clubs can spend. Band 2 is fair enough. You are still taking a massive punt with a player who has done an ACL in the past. It is still a bit of a punt. Would I like my club to take the gamble, maybe.
I doubt anyone would trade 3,6 and 25 for 1,12 and 19.... what would be the point in that? There's no clear standout for the number 1 pick so why would someone over pay for it?

band 1 wont need adjusting as a club requires the offer to put the player in the top 5% paid players over 25 years of age to activate it. the amount required will adjust automatically as players salaries go up.
intetesting that you say he's not worth that much and the suggest he may be worth that much to your team. suspect that your salary cap may not allow you to have a go at him but he would be great for the swans. allow tippett to play 80% up forward and not get injured as much. no more sinclair or naismith. you would be immeasurably better.

I'd rather just trade Tippett for a late pick or a future pick and go from there to be honest. Even a mid 3rd rounder I'd take or use him to get a few small upgrades I do feel we need to make s few maybe harsh but correct calls this off season

Some clubs most likely do believe there's a standout and wouldn't want to risk missing out.
The opinion of many of the Brisbane Academy watches is that Ballenden is overrated by the draft watchers.
Like last year, Allison was spoken about as a top 10 prospect, but ended up being drafted in the 50's.
Long way to go yet.
Academy players are always overrated early on. I mean last year GWS were supposed to have about 4 of the top 10 picks in their academy. Did not work out like that.

Just a tad off I reckon, 4 and 11 yes, unless as you say the depth is very good and it becomes quite difficult to identify a clear top 2-3 players.
If a standout number 1 emerges eg. Fogarty, LDU. O'Brien etc. we would probably keep it.

Fogarty would suit your side quite well.
I'd sooner take Luke Davies-Uniacke and Lochie O'Brien.
Pick 1, 12 & 19 are on the table for those two and a mid second round coming back our way.

Fair enough don't think you can go wrong either way. You'd have your academy kid too.

He's worth bugger all. Could be steak knives. Saints first pick which is currently pick 11 & Dunstan for Jake Lever. Of course you don't wanna lose Lever but if he did make up his mind to head to Vic pick 11 & Dunstan isn't bad compensation.

"He's worth bugger all" so he adds bugger all to that deal. Lever is the most promising key defender in the AFL and is worth a lot more than pick 11.
