2020 FA, Draft and Trade HYPOTHETICAL thread...now with new DFA speculation!

[Strapping Young Lad]

A good reference point for picks.

 

[VandoHawk]

If I remember correctly we were interested in Tom North in his draft year. Inside mid who couldn't break into Fremantle's midfield group. He likes to tackle so could potentially try reinvent him as a small forward?

 

[Strapping Young Lad]

Any clues, who

On SM-G955F using BigFooty.com mobile app

No point mentioning names.

Nothing may come of it, and they’ll only be met with the usual suspects coming in to announce “look at how shit we are if we’re getting excited about player 124 who got delisted”.

 

[Blackhawk42]

Literally zero delisted players from WA I would be interested in so (respectfully) I hope that mail is incorrect.

I would be surprised if we don't take on any DFAs because this is as strong a class of delisted players I can ever remember. We usually take on somebody.

is one i'd take

Not sure mentally he has it in him to work hard enough to be a pro

 

[Yardie]

He's not a pressure forward. Not quick enough.

Kicking goals is putting on scoreboard pressure. I understand the premise of locking it in. But if you get it in and kick a goal the first time.......

Maybe he meant Western Bulldogs not Western Australia

 

[Strapping Young Lad]

What if.....

it gets to pick 4 and Hollands has gone but McDonald is there(slim chance) so we bid on Campbell and once he is matched we offer Pick 5 to the dopers for 7 and 9.

They take McDonald at 5. GC take Phillips at 6.

Hawthorn rolls into pick 7 and takes Perkins, dopers take Bruhn at 8 and then we trade Pick 9 to the Giants for 11 and 14.

Hawks take Perkins, Reid and Henry in the top 15, then take Winder at 25. Plus Downie.

everyone happy?

Nah, Perth.

I'm happy with any of these selections TBH

 

[Blackhawk42]

Nah, Perth.

Still fingers crossed you meant West of New Zealand and Ed Phillips is joining his brother.

[Tugofawar]

I don’t get the fascination with trading pick 4 down to the Dons. If anything I think we should be packing pick 4 and 24 to North for pick 2. Pick 24 is worth very little to us if we want Downie. Pick 4 and 24 for 2 and 71.

Given NM already have 11 & 30, would you do that? I wouldn't.

They wouldn't.

 

[daniel23]

Nah, Perth.

Schulz would have to be one of them

 

[HAWKSBESTEVA]

Schulz would have to be one of them

Freo is re drafting him

 

[Spanish Sahara]

Freo is re drafting him

Doesn’t mean we can’t offer him a longer deal with more security. I would be interested in getting him across

I’d rather we take the better player at pick 4 thanks

maybe up for a spot at box hill

I was wondering whether we could bid on Campbell (or any player) and then trade the pick once the bid is matched?

from the Freo discard pile if he was ok leaving WA. You don't draft a DFA based on what they've been, you do so based on what you think you can turn them into and I'd love to see what he could do alongside Breust and Wingard.

I was wondering whether we could bid on Campbell (or any player) and then trade the pick once the bid is matched?

Yes you can. Carlton placed a bid on Henry and then Green last year before trading their pick out once they were both matched.

 

[Strapping Young Lad]

Yes. We could.

 

[HAWKSBESTEVA]

Wait why would we trade our pick if the bid gets matched ?
