I dont mind the trade. Considering our only academy players will be late picks/hopefully through the rookie draft, the points are fairly irrelevant to us. And seeing as we have said we want 5 picks inside 30, anything outside of that is useless to us. We now have:

2,3,19,24,29,58,79

That gives us the resources to move up again and with 19,24,29 potentially, seeing as Sydney just gave up 13 for 26 and 28?


Also interesting, Port now have 10 and 11 and Adelaide have 8,13 and 16. You would think both will now be all over us looking for 2 or 3. Would potentially deal with Adelaide for 3 if we were sure Rozee would last giving us lukoscious and Rozee + 13. But I think if we did that Port would jump above us with 10 and 11 and we would miss out. More of a draft night trade I would have thought.

24 and 29 to Geelong for Pick 12? Geelong doesn’t currently have another pick until 50, so 2 x top 30 picks might appeal?
 
Gee Adelaide will end up with
8,13,16,21

They will come at us hard for pick 2 or 3.
Will make draft night interesting with live pick trading
Think they’re unlucky this year of all years.
4 top 10 prospects from SA, all friends, and we’re putting in a lot of effort with draft pairing to mitigate the go home factor + need a replacement for Lynch. Can’t see us giving up 2 or 3 for later picks when we could get Lukosius + Rozee/Rankine at 2/3. We also just don’t have enough picks to draft 5 or 6 + kids

Fully expect us to trade our 3 second round picks for say, pick 11 from north

I doubt it, as at a minimum we’d be getting 20 and 22 for Kelly from WC. It’s the highest pick we’ve had for a while too, so reckon we’d want to use it. IMO we’d only trade it to get into the top 10.

EDIT - and with now Dahlhaus, Rohan and Krueger, need to get some quality kids in. How bout 12 and 20 for pick 3? ;)

Nahhh ;)
 
This whole thing where we draft Scrimshaw at 7, pay him outrageous money and he even slightly entertaining the idea of leaving has really got up my nose.

It’s a crap situation, but it was all done with the old footy department hierarchy. And the new hierarchy don’t seem big fans of his.

He looks to be the only miss for us from that draft so if we can get something reasonable back, looks like we will take it?

Using his trade, we still might turn him into a positive somehow.
 
Did anyone catch what Cal Twomey just said on trade radio about the Suns & Jack Lukosius ?

I just heard the back end of the conversation sounded like cal was saying the Suns have gone cold on Lukosius and are making a play for pick 1 to get Sam Walsh.

They then twitter this

They absolutely loved him - as confirmed by people with GC club contacts after the combine - now they have gone cold?

Think Cal might be talking crap to fill in the dead air of Trade radio

What we could do though is:

Adelaide:
IN: 2, 24
OUT: 8, 13 16

Gold Coast
IN: 1, 8
OUT: 2, 3

Carlton
IN: 3, 13, 16
OUT: 1

Think Carlton are just set on Walsh but SOS on trade radio did say that they are open to trading it.

No he was putting forward the idea of us giving up picks 2 and 3, to get pick 1 and take Walsh as we need quality mids. It's a shocking idea and one that the same media nuffys would belt us about if we did it.

I listened to it. Cal did not say it at all. Just discussing what would be the best strategy for Suns from retention point of view. Walsh is his favourite. Some silly ideas from Cal recently.

Not for me

Take the 2 elite picks, having said that I am going to contradict myself and say if the Crows coughed up 8 and bundled 13 and 16 into pick 6 I would be open to giving them pick 3

Crows out 8 and 6 (made from trading 13 and 16)
in pick 3

Suns out pick 3
in picks 6 and 8

This is well in our favour as the elite in this draft are recognised as the top 8 but its the kind of deal that the crows would have to come up with.

Yeah you are probably right Cal was probably just try to drive up some social media traffic.

One minute cal is saying Suns are into the king twins next minute it's the SA kids then it's Walsh

Really like this deal you suggested , no need to help Carlton get back to the draft .

You'd take it in a heartbeat. The Crows would want pick 2 to guarantee Lukosius though.

They would push for it no doubt but it depends on how desperate either club was on Lukosius. If we really want him we could just say no and take Luko and Rankine

Lukosius ,Rankine , Walsh are all overrated , I rather pick players 30+ Sam Mitchell , Dane Swan , Neale ..

So who are the players 30+ who are better? If you can do that you should change your occupation to AFL recruiting
