List Mgmt. 2019 Draft Thread

Yep.
The good thing is he's surplus to needs right now so if it's a top 20 bid then thay can have him.

I want to see us trade that 3rd and future 1st round pick and grab a top 15 kid, then it doesn't matter since we can get Biggie with p80 and shift the remaining balance into next year.

Lets say picks 15 and 70 odd, and a F2nd in, for our F1st, 51, F4th. Something like that anyway.

No way Biggy is a top 20 bid.

No way Biggy is a top 20 bid.

Reckon we will offer him a NGA Rookie position.

 

[BrutThough]

How come we year after year trade away next years pics,then are left having to trade back into the draft/trade period? Dont these idiots who are responsible know what they are doing?

Does it really matter?

We traded out of the 2020 draft this year, so then next year if we want more picks we can just trade our 2021 picks to get more for 2020. And the cycle continues.

makes no difference to us if he's bid on at 1 or 49.

How does it work though if say he was pick 5 and our first pick is 51. Isn’t the discount only 20% so we would have to somehow come up with more picks to gain points?

Won't matter as looking at his stats he won't get drafted. Best to rookie him.

 

[Veer Right]

Best young ruck in the state leagues @ 51 aged 20-23

rookie Biggie and Cunico

Points get deducted from the next year if you don't have enough

I think we should try for Elijah Taylor. Around pick 45, looks very good. Trade a future 4th and 51 for 38 and 95. Then I’d use picks 82, 95 and our other 4th round to get 58 and pick Riley Garcia, that’s two very good kids.

Other option is if Melbourne refuse to move from pick 3 to 6 we trade our future 1st for pick 6.
We select Kemp.

That gives us Kemp, (at 6) Taylor, (at 38) and Garcia, (at 58) that’s a very good hand.

Elijah is a freo academy kid.

Unless none bids then we can Rookie I imagine.

Thoughts on Ben keayes?
just delisted by the lions but was highly rated in his draft year only a few years ago

Just thought I'd read up on him. Looks like he was offered up last year as well. The Dogs bid on him and ended up with Dunkley instead. Holy shit that was a lucky miss. Lions fans don't seem to love his skill set. Some said he was rated a top 10 pick in his draft year but they say he lacks size skill or speed. Sounds like a target for us for sure.

Elijah is a freo academy kid.

No I don’t think he is I reckon he’s open draft. Just read something by Cal Twomey about him no mention to Freo.

The WA young gun with star dust in his blood

Elijah Taylor impressed at the under-18 championships and is in first-round draft calculations

[gringo2011]

No he’s not he’s open draft.

I just looked it up, you are right, he was training with Freo but not academy. I thought they were getting Henry and Taylor. That's not so bad. He looks pretty good.

I thought he was too. Adds a little more to the midfield.

He looked good at the champs. If he goes late enough for us I'd be very keen.

https://www.theroar.com.au/afl/afl-phantom-draft/. Have a look at that, might be worth jumping into the top 20.

Makes me sad we don't have a pick. I want Ash or Flanders. Shit box Carlton getting my boy Kemp cheap as well.

And the Bulldogs have 13 and Bruce and Keith

 

[borderbarry]

We have got ourselves into this situation, and it looks as if our people cant get out of it.

 

[CarnTheSAINTERS]

I would definitely be happy with trading our 2020 first for a top 8 pick this year. If we get 10 next year come our pick it will be 15 (guess). Plus, if next year any good player wants to come, we have
2021 First, Second and so on. Trade into the draft by trading out of next years. Win for me.

 

[ScrappyDo]

Reckon we will offer him a NGA Rookie position.

Is there such a thing??

 

[Mindtraveller]

Is there such a thing??

If he gets through the national draft without getting select I believe we can put him straight onto the rookie list

Glass half empty
If we trade our next years, the person trading with us will assume worst case that we end up near the top of the laddder. So we lose in the trade.

Think of it this way, the Academy guys are off limits, but we will get a prime choice from the non-acadmemy players. Those with academy picks won't be able to get them

 

[stfan]

If our Recruiters go with over Agers which is a good chance, i think we will swap Pick 51 for an extra pick.
I dont think Brisbane or Richmond will use all their Available picks after the Season they have just had.
So P51 swap with Lions could give us their Picks 55 &72.
While Tigers could give us Picks 56 &75.
They are late picks, but we can get an extra Player/Pick

You do not have to trade for more late picks. You just have to delist more players. Delist 20 players and you get another 20 late picks.
