Best way to avoid that is to tell the AFL we're open to trading them the number 1 pick anyway. The motivation in giving them the PP would be to let them land Lukosius as a marquee replacement for Lynch - by opening up that possibility ourselves it gives the AFL a convenient out.
Lynch goes, they get Pick 4 compo.
1 + 23 for 4, 16 + Brodie (values Brodie @ 26).
4 for Shiel.
Gold Coast get Pick 1 (Lukosius), Pick 3 (Walsh/Smith), Pick 23 to replace Lynch, Brodie and Pick 16.
GWS get better value for Shiel than they're likely to see next year, and can get a Smith/Rankine/King at Pick 4 depending on their preference.
Carlton turn Picks 1 and 23 into Shiel, Brodie and Pick 16 (Taylor, Rozee etc). Retain Pick 27 as well.
Still don't think Id want to spend pick 4 on Shiel. I think Id go to Adelaide with it and try to nab Mitch McGovern who wants out reportedly, and pick 8.
