I am comfortable with trading the pick if our first remains inside the top 5.

Sydney, Hawthorn, and Gold Coast are the only teams we should pick up the phone for

You wouldn't take 6, 7, 8, 9 and 10 for pick 2?
 
Yeah but who is going to give us that deal?

Essendon don't have 9 and 10 unless I'm mistaken?


Yeah, there are scenarios when you step outside the top 5, but they would want to be heavily weighted in the clubs favor, and how many draftees can we take anyway?

There are limits to "splitting".

I think as mentioned elsewhere, the deal would have to be stupidly skewed towards us. As it should be if you're trying to acquire #2.

6, 7, 8 and a first round pick in 2021 is one I've mentioned as a possibility from Essendon. But I don't think they'd offer us that. Dodoro would offer 7 and 8 and then walk away and call us difficult for not agreeing.

GC's 5, 27, 37 and a 2021 first rounder is around the mark. Sydney's 4 and 2021 first/second would be appealing too.

I would swap 2 for 6, 7 & 8 alone.

Phillips, Bruhn & Cox/Reid, tyvm. We are set.

We can throw the kitchen sink at a ready made KPF straight away.

Nah you have to make them bleed if they want their chosen one. Three first round picks is nice but I want them to really mortgage their future for McDonald

You won’t get Phillips with an Essendon pick.

Don't worry, they'll do that themselves by trading out 2 years worth of draft picks for the next Dylan Shiel.

Not sure he'd be seen as a long term hf. Clayton and Finnegan would be looking at what they will become, not what they are.

Anyway, I have NFI, it has just been mentioned to me that he is rated more highly than you'd think.


I have seen him rated in the early teens to the mid 20's.

Based on the little I have seen he appears to be a bit "speccish".

Yeah. Most of that is independent opinion. Twomey had him at 10 yesterday. He'd be getting some decent mail fed to him.

Look, I've just had it mentioned to me that we like him. I don't know if we like him enough to be part of a package of picks for 2 though.

Interesting that you raise that.

It just recently dawned on me that many of these "draft watchers" seed the kids based on club gossip and not their own football eye.
