Lol you pick and choose your stats.
When it's a concrete stat like 'goals kicked' I don't have to pick or choose anything.

IMO, we would only do that if we were looking to pick up some players via trading, otherwise we would probably want to keep our first pick.Hey guys. Good luck for tmw. Delete if I'm not allowed to post here.
I read that you guys were looking for points instead of high picks. Do you think your club would consider trading your 4+23 for our 11+16+33? Would give you another 100 points or so by my calculations.

My belief was that you had some high value academy players so didn't care about the specific picks, just total points value. If I'm wrong there, then obviously you'd take Pick 4 over 11+16IMO, we would only do that if we were looking to pick up some players via trading, otherwise we would probably want to keep our first pick.
You are right, but it looks like they go later than our first, so at least on the board we are hoping to get a top 5 player + our academy kids. We will probably have to do some future pick shenanigans.My belief was that you had some high value academy players so didn't care about the specific picks, just total points value.

No. To have a chance to use pick 4 is invaluable. Yes we need the points to cover Campbell and Gulden thereafter but see what position we are in after trades in terms of picks. I’d try and do the three....a Phillips/ McDonald followed by Campbell and Gulden. If pattern goes true to form pre known academy picks tend to slide a little so who knows where Campbell and Gulden go in the night
That's fair then. If you don't expect to need to use your Pick 4 to get one of them, then no point trading it out.You are right, but it looks like they go later than our first, so at least on the board we are hoping to get a top 5 player + our academy kids.

It could happen in live trading i suppose? If a bid came in for Campbell at 3, it would make sense for us to trade 4 for more points, and pay with those. But i would expect we are hoping a bid won't come for Campbell before 4, giving us a top 5 pick, Campbell and Gulden.My belief was that you had some high value academy players so didn't care about the specific picks, just total points value.

Sounds ideal. From what I had read, Campbell was a top 3 pick, but with everything going on this year no one really knows ey.If a trade did eventuate then it would be live in the draft if somebody bid on Campbell before our pick 4.
Other than another trade target that would require us splitting pick 4 I don’t see why we would devalue our draft hand when we can just take some points deficit (aside from any other side trades we might make to boost points).

Wonder if the cats would bid to force the trade. The live pick trading and F/S + Academy points for picks has certainly made draft night more interesting than before.
True. Which would also negate the need to trade for pick 4. Forget I said that.Cats would need a pick in front of Sydney at 4 to force a trade.
we never offer two first rounders for anyone
Your offer (as it were) is made a poor one for us if our first academy guy (Campbell) is selected at say pick 8 (where he is projected to be in the running) It would then blow the second pick out a long way - and we'd need to use that on our second academy guy (Gulden).My belief was that you had some high value academy players so didn't care about the specific picks, just total points value.

I love Goodsey, no issues there. Keep trying.There is no other way to interpret what you said. You didn't want us to trade him in because he has a passion for social justice issues. Was Goodes less of a footballer because he was the same? It's entirely irrelevant.
Ronke for a 3rd round pick. Reckon there'd be a few teams interestedI reckon we look to bring in a 3rd round pick somehow to make up the points we need
McKernan is 30. They moved on Mitch Brown who was younger last year.I suspect JD staying put. McKernan delisted

As I've stated in all my earlier comments, grab 3 very talented kids this year, 2 of which will come from our academy. If it means we go into deficit next year, so be it. It will mean our first round draft pick next year may be 5-6 places lower than what it would otherwise be. We will still have a first rounder though.I dont disagree with the intent of your argument. However, with two highly rated academy players and a potential pick before them this is not the year to colour outside the lines. take the best available, pick up two highly rated prospects and next year your arguments has legs. All due respect to you.

Our picks in 2021 should be used predominantly for trades and not draft picks.
Like you, I agree with #caesar88 in his thinking to a degree but I just think he's a year too early with going heavy in trades.

Given that Wicks seemingly rates behind Bell, I’m not too sure he’s part of the future team.FWIW your preferred outcome is also my preferred outcome. It's highly unlikely anyone worth a pick 4 presents as a trade target, and I wouldn't be in favour of splitting pick 4 unless we were guaranteed to be trading in two quality players with those picks. So I too want us to take pick 4 to the draft and try to get an elite junior before a Campbell bid comes.
However I guess where we differ is that I am less resolute in that plan than you, in that if the right players to trade in entered the frame, I would be willing to abandon the go-to-the-draft thing all together. I really am convinced that between Heeney, Mills, Papley, Dawson, Hewett (if he stays), Florent, Hayward, McCartin, Blakey, Rowbottom, McInerney, Wicks, Stephens and, hopefully, Campbell, Gulden, Warner and Gould, there's enough of a nucleus of a good future team for us to start adding the right pieces to it.
