Game Day 2018 DRAFT - Christmas is early this year

[betterthanu]

Would be funny if Carlton had a massive year and finished above us. This thread would make for fun reading for Blues fans

 

[Murray2503]

Worse case we gave up pick 16 and pick 7-12 for a top 5 pick.

 

[mattymac]

This is far better than any of the vic metro dross we were about to pick up

 

[dplggr47]

Can't see it being worse than a top #2 pick.

Draft day commentators are predicting Carlton to finish mid-table next year

 

[FR0GGY]

Nah, I think that Gold Coast will still be partly decent next year. They will win games at home more than Carlton will.

They weren't partly decent this year, they are only getting worse, not sure carlton can get worse.

Crows receive a future round 1 pick
From Carlton

Blues receive pick 19 and a future round 1 pick

Crows got done in this trade. Two picks on a gamble for a top 5. What if Carlton have this Collingwood type year. jesus this is stuffed. I am not happy at all and I think the club just showed utter disrespect to an opposition club. We should have demanded carltons 2nd rounder at least in return. This is a horrible trade and one that could just absolutely bite us in the arse. Just horrible.

 

[Samcro24]

you were right on this without knowing why. That footage we would have made out pick and were talking about the next move.

This screenshot shows what I thin you saw and also shows what Reid thinks we are getting in that trade

Look at fagan.

[ams4crows]

This is bloody Crazy! like Carlton's 1st rounder, CARLTON, like perennial wooden spooners.....

What the actual *?

 

[Scorpus]

It's so hard to move up the order with picks alone and we've likely done that with two mid double digit picks

 

[Danger in Texas]

Keep in mind our first could be pushed out due to academy players

If we finish 6th, it could be 16 and 19 for 3

HUGE gamble, but I’m excited, we haven’t done something like that in a long time

We need another pick in this draft, though

 

[Thetrader15]

The giants have done well with caldwell and hatley

 

[jackster83]

Imagine winning the flag and then going into the draft with pick 1.

 

[Elite Crow]

can people stop saying pick 1. Carlton won’t finish bottom Gold Coast will easily

 

[70lethal]

To those who melted over the McHenry pick and said we went to early?

 

[Bicks]

RCD looks like a gimp

Tex is pissed off, he would have had competition for the biggest "wingnuts"

 

[Magma]

really like the pick trade.

this ely smith bloke looks about 25

 

[Crowbling]

With pick 21 the Brisbane Lions select a douchebag.

 

[Rankine2Rachele]

Pretty happy with our haul tonight, but I'll save ramping up my excitement at Carlton's round 1 pick until I see just how crap they seem to be next year.

 

[King Elvis]

That's one of our greatest trades in history

No it isn’t mate.

This was the year to go all in, not continue to kick the the can down the road.

It’s an awesome trade move, and great to have it - but it doesn’t help us win a flag.

Where's Malifice now? HAHAHAHAHA

[Runnin Blue]

The Fox Footy “experts” are idiots. Basically talking this trade as a bold move by Carlton who think they’ll finish next year around the same mark as us.
