Geez, we are terrible poker players!

What’s with telegraphing all our moves and thereby looking desperate and undermining their value? Hine has just told all Clubs what we want/need to do and they’ll now know that they can offer unders on a “take it or leave it” basis and as the clock runs down we’ll probably flinch and accept.

Why not just publicly shut the hell up and then be judged when the dust settles???

Instead, Hine has now told all Pies supporters and rival Clubs that the pass mark is getting 4-5 picks in this year’s top 40. So they’ll probably have to sell the farm in terms of 2021 (and 2022?) picks to hit that target, because after the Treloar and Stevo trades debacle can’t afford to look foolish again.

It really is amateur hour down at the Holden Centre!

Dont think you can trade off a pick 2 years into the future?

Probably a good thing - it feels like we’d fire-sale everything we can lay our hands on right now.

The clincher will be selling off next year’s first round pick for something in the teens this year, only to finish bottom four next year.

You can’t. Can’t actually believe you responded to that nonsense post.

I know it'll take a miracle but if we end up trading up and landing Will Phillips, please @ me.
Will Phillips is your new [PLAYERCARD]Jack Billings[/PLAYERCARD], isn’t he?
 
I know what number it’ll wind up, but you’re getting access to the 8th best player available regardless of the pick number. Either way it’s not happening because there’s every chance our pick next year is outside the top 10 so there’s zero motivation from the other team to accept the deal.
If pick 8 ends up at pick 11 you are getting the 11 player picked and if everyone nails their picks (which they wont) the 11th best player. The 8th best player available doesnt mean much in my opinion. Theres every chance our pick will be in the top 10 next year and a lot of other clubs would be thinking the same after we lost 3 solid players and some of our other guns like Pendlebury and Sidebottom reaching the end of their careers. Maybe someone would be willing to gamble a top 10 pick on our future 1st in a draft that is less compromised and with more talent. If we trade our future 1st for pick 13 which will end up pick 16-18 and we crash and burn next year the laughter from other clubs will be in our ears for all of next summer.
Yes yes Daicos will be a high pick next year....... but we could do so much better the a late 1st pick for our future 1st.

That Age phantom makes for some really nice reading. Looking forward to what we can manufacture tomorrow night, and fingers crossed the Reef bid does slide.

Personally I hope we don't bypass Finlay Macrae at one of our picks, would really like to inject him into our line-up if at all possible
 
I wonder what 21 and 23 from Melbourne would require with us involving our future 1st.

Haven’t been keeping up with this years draft unfortunately.

I tried looking for Conor Stone draft / highlights package, but couldn’t find any.

Anyone have any videos? Thanks!
 
it Could get worse, don’t tempt fate
A bit like when I woke up (I work nightshift) and read our final day's trading one after the other:
"No",
"Whaaat?!?"...
"F#*&^@k!"

Did come into contention from nowhere.
