Yuck - another horrible outcome for us.
Bailey Laurie looks good and a positional need so it wouldn't be the end of the world.Even getting a KPF we Badly Need

Even getting a KPF we Badly Need
I'd really like us to get Cox, but position-wise, I'd be happy with a small forward and an inside mid. They're both positions of need for us.Thats what makes it so yuck as much as anything - a small forward and Reef doesn't exactly excite me.
Had a friend mention Pies are sounding out Crows to get up the order and receive more points.
Something like:
Pies: 16 Future 1st 2021
Crows: 9, 23, 24.
If we can get 9, 22, 23 for 16 and our future 1st take it and run. If Ess bid on Reef at 6-8 then we call their bluff and they can have him, there are other options available.Sounds reasonable. We are giving up a first to get a better first, and a future first to get two top 20 picks. The only risk is that 9 is not enough to land Reef.
I'm happy with any trade where we go up the draft order and dont give up 2020 picks to do it.

I haven't seen much, if Essendon want him at one of their picks, then that is what he is worth, if we think that then we match. It would be nice to pick him up cheap but it's more important, this year especially to get this draft right.Where is this discussion about Essendon bidding on Reef actually coming from? Don't give me the whole "Dodoro likes to play funny buggers," is there actually any legitimate speculation that that's what Essendon is planning?
Cant see them being dumb enough to do it personally, what i can see the asshats doing is taking both Reid and coxWhere is this discussion about Essendon bidding on Reef actually coming from?

You would also think that if they are going to be complete "Asshats" , they would use the first selection with the highest points match in case we go that way.Cant see them being dumb enough to do it personally, what i can see the asshats doing is taking both Reid and cox
Non what so ever and Essendon would have to stupid to bid on Reef with any of their picksWhere is this discussion about Essendon bidding on Reef actually coming from?

This page doesn't do anything. Just sits there and can be made bigger but appears to just be an ad.

Maybe posters don't like seeing him ranked in the 20's and are trying in their minds to boost his worth by pretending that Essendon might bid on him at 8.Where is this discussion about Essendon bidding on Reef actually coming from?

It's a promotional image... the draft guide comes out tonight at 8pm as per the promotion imageThis page doesn't do anything. Just sits there and can be made bigger but appears to just be an ad.
P4L is involved in AFL draft central. He’s promoting their draft guide, so yes in a sense it is an ad.This page doesn't do anything. Just sits there and can be made bigger but appears to just be an ad.
They’d probably consider 9 and one of their low 20 picks, but very unlikely that they’d give both away.From what I can gather it’s grown legs amongst the pessimists on the basis of Essendon having a cluster of picks. Personally I don’t see them playing funny buggers because they have their own NGA’s. I wouldn’t rule it out because I think McInness projects top 10, but it’s not based on much currently.
FWIW the Adelaide trade speculation is garbage. There’s no way they’re taking that deal when they’ve made it quite clear their aim is 5 top 40 picks in this draft.
flipping jelly if they took both Reid and Cox. I'm expecting it thoughBombers are all over Reid Cox and Perkins. Why wouldn’t they be? It would be an amazing haul from them and every other club would be jealous. Suits all there needs to a tee. I’d be more worried about a bid coming from North or even GWS. Hence we should be looking to deal with them trade picks and ensure we get 2 picks in before Reef. I’d imagine Freo will go local talent as there seems to be plenty. Unless anyone has info regarding the players GWS and North are in to at those picks?

I've heard from a reliable source within the industry that Essendon were considering making a bid. But at the same time, Collingwood have basically said they're not committing to him so they're playing a game of chicken at the moment.From what I can gather it’s grown legs amongst the pessimists on the basis of Essendon having a cluster of picks.

Bloke needs all the help he can getI've heard from a reliable source within the industry that Essendon were considering making a bid. But at the same time, Collingwood have basically said they're not committing to him so they're playing a game of chicken at the moment.
There's some belief Reef cops a bid before Lachie Jones, though most expect if it's not Essendon, it probably won't be before that pick. The only reason it has grown legs is that Essendon need a big-bodied inside mid, and after doing a podcast on the exact topic of 190+ midfielders, the only top 30 players who fit that bill are McInnes and Poulter effectively.
I reckon there's a way we could get 8, deal with Essendon with two of our picks, they could pick up Poulter at #14 or #16 (as not to have to use a Top 10 pick on him) and then we can take Reef with whatever our next pick is.
I mean Adrian Dodoro has subscribed to our Draft Guide so I'll just quickly start rubbishing Reef now![]()
