Honestly I don't think it's as good a deal for the Swans as people are claiming. They have given up a round in the draft (moving from the 2nd down to the 3rd) to avoid downgrading a pick in the 20s. It underwhelms me.

I did enjoy watching us f##k with them tonight

Bidding on Blakey
Bidding on Quaynor
Selecting a guy who wasn’t even in the room

Fun night.

Maybe something or maybe just just having coffee together

Great start to the draft for you guys, outstanding selections, hopefully you can finish off strong

Maybe we are anticipating the bid on Briggs from Adelaide and trading 28 + 47 for 34 + 41 to get a better later pick. Not sure who would be on our radar though. Stack if available at 41 would be value.

 

[Giant Strides]

May be so. Depending on how you categorise some players (e.g. what's Sam Reid's position? Perryman? Tommo ?) the list balance is such that we could look for any of a running defender, forward or outside mid. Getting as high a 5th pick is an option if looking to take best available. I wonder if Matt Walker is in calculation at all - points for him are another option.

Really didn't want that one, has Pickett mark 2 stamped all over him, hopefully I am a poor judge

Bravo Giants - doing on the bit

What was the trade? I'm seeing that we have given up a future second round pick (we only have Carlton's) for a future 5th round and that 4 position upgrade? If so, that is stupid. Someone tell me it's something different.

Hopefully with Quayle and Caruso at the helm rather than SOS, we have really made sure he is of sound character in his interviews.

Certainly hope so.

Certainly hope so.

Will to give them full support after last year.

I'm sure we will find out soon enough.

And at least we arent using a pick 4 on him. Medium risk (pick 24) for potentially high reward.

Looks like you're right. That's mindboggling, even if Hill was rated that highly.

Carlton's 2nd rounder will be low 20s, Adelaide's 5th rounder will be late 70s-early 80s?

 

[dlanod]

Surely we match Briggs here.

 

[dlanod]

Excellent. Love the local kid.

 

[Giant Strides]

WTF on the trade that got Hill? Stupid, really. Crows are laughing, between yesterday's Carlton trade and now ours today.

 

[dlanod]

F me. Briggs is not an NGA pick you silly people.

 

[Giant Strides]

We will have a points deficit in next year's second round. Sigh.

 

[dlanod]

I don't mind Hill. He's our fourth pick, so take a gamble on needs. Pickett backfired as a top 10 pick.

Interesting decision. Don't make the trade and we have to use 28 on Briggs after the crows bid on him, make the trade and we get Hill and keep the option of later picks for Briggs. Hill sliding that far is a surprise i think and we jumped at it. Means we get good value with Hill at 24 but pay a second rounder (the future pick) for briggs which we initially thought we would pay anyway.

I like the deal

Unless we now get something back from Adelaide, as per the Swans - Eagles trade yesterday.

 

[Andre the Giant]

Australia should bring back knighting people and start with Adrian Caruso.

He could not have nailed this draft any better. What a bloody legend.
