Rumour 2019 Draft rumours thread

[ferrisb]

Whats the point of Sydney being into Green when we cant get him?

1) You could bid on him before GWS's pick, forcing them to use pick 6 or trade it out
2) You could spook GWS into trading up again before the draft

 

[Holden Hillbilly]

What about rumours - not discussions ya numpties.

If he is still available at pick 5:

GWS trade Pick 6 and their 2020 first round pick for Pick 5.

They would be effectively trading Pick 6 and say 15, for Pick 5 and Tom Green (Tom>15).

Out of interest what part of the first round?

I have not hear a Specific Spot in the 1st Round.

My Guess be Higher the Better

I'm sure they hope to, not sure why anybody would want to move out from the first round for pick 35 this year and potentially a pick in the early 20's as a first rounder next year as a lure. Should have used trade week and shifted some players.

Forcing GWS to match the bid and take Green.

GWS trade Pick 6 and their 2020 first round pick for Pick 5.

They would be effectively trading Pick 6 and say 15, for Pick 5 and Tom Green (Tom>15).

If GWS trade pick 6 and move ahead of a bid for Green, they need a mid to late 20’s pick back as well, to help match the points. They really have a poor hand, points wise, in thi years draft.

If say Gold Coast bid on Green at 2 would they be able to muster the points?

Maggies - Are drooling into Riccardi

That would be a smart pick up. Very close to mid-year draft selection.

 

[Soups]

Riccardi is all the talk for us atm. Ben Sokol has also been flown over and interviewed.

Don't they use the following years picks if they run out of points? In which case they would lose the first round pick anyway.

Yes, but there is a cap on how many future points the AFL deem you to have.

Basically the AFL assume you hold the last pick in each round (that you have picks in) and if that’s not enough points to match the bid, then the AFL don’t allow you to match, and the team that made the bid gets the player.

Richmond, Bulldogs and Port all like Rivers

Richmond, Bulldogs and Port all like Rivers

From the 3 you mentioned i would say Port most likely with #18

 

[Northernsoul74]

Doesn’t seem an obvious fit for the Dogs.

It could also be the Bulldogs playing games with Port wanting them to pull the trigger at #12 and letting another player slide to #13.

Everything said publicly and most things that somehow get out privately but publicly hehe are "playing games".

For instance, Melbourne list manager yesterday naming the 3 players they are tossing up for Pick 3 coincidentally being the 3 players that GWS apparently want most. Green, Jackson, Young.

"Hey GWS, let's deal".

I don’t buy Demons taking Jackson at 3 at all.

Both would be astute picks for the pies

Yeah, it feels like a bluff

I’m keen on both, so I hope it happens.

 

[Gold Rocks]

Hopefuly this thread heats up in about 12 days time..

 

[bone2468]

Rumours circling that Melbourne are gonna bid at Henry with there pick 8

 

[anotherletdown]

There is no way they are passing on Green. He's too good.

Owwww, can’t you just let me live in hope for at least a week or two
