5-6 Draft picks
2-3 DFA’s
Stephenson?
I’m also expecting a last hour trade for fringe player - the media have no idea what we aren’t doing so expect a surprise
Ah that makes sense. Ok sweet.
I was really hopefully of those Gold Coast pair instead of Stephenson. But I hope you're right.
I think we need some leadership though. Cunnington, Ziebell and Tarrant can't do it all. Even with the assistance of Polec and Hall
 
What’s all this talk of us being prepared to move on Pick 2 for later picks? The only way we move on Pick 2 is for some absurd offer you would think?

If Brady and the list management team rubber stsmp this for anything other than an absurd offer, then we deserve to wallow down the bottom. Offloading Pick 2 effectively is saying we are happy to give up a better sh*t at the very best talent available for 2 players that with a bit of luck might be elite.

Too risky for mine. Back in your research and take the best talent available, which is at Pick 2.

JUH aside, Hollands and then McDonald are by far the best players in this draft - there’s a mile between them and the next best (incl. Phillips, DGB). Would be insane to throw away Pick 2 for anything less than an established top 5-8 midfielder.

I'd be putting our 2021 second on the table for both guys first thing tomorrow and then walking away. Pick will be around 20-22 which will be valuable points for Daicos.

If they want pick 11 then I would be wanting their 2021 first back, or at least somehow tying in the Dogs' pick this year.
Ordinarily I’d back your point completely but I think we need to negotiate in good faith on this one. Stephenson is a top 4 pick and rising star winner who given a clean run at it can be exceptional, has X factor that’ll compliment Tarryn nicely with potential to move into the midfield/wing. Did have the heart condition but happy to take a punt on him. Would be happy to trade pick 11 and next years second rounder for him and the pies first from next year or second rounder from this year. Or whatever Collingwood need to lock Daicos in next year.

So you want us to act in good faith, whilst Melbourne try and hold us over a barrel for Brown?

Nice guys finish last.
 
l think the only trades now for us are;
Stephenson maybe a 3rd round and taking his contract
Brown if Melbourne give us what WE THINK is a worthwhile trade, #26 and #33
Pick swaps with the Doggies #25, #26 for their pick #14. If these happen then Brady and Clayton have done a good job...

Melbourne are absolutely taking the piss here. I’d almost be willing to swap Stephenson for Brown, take on a small part of Browns contract for a year. Both would balance out in the wash up. We get a top 4 pick and rising star, and Pies get the big forward they need to win a premiership. Thoughts?
 
If we can’t get Stephenson for a 2nd rounder I’m happy to pass on him. He’s a really talented kid but obviously has a couple issues, a large contract and an average/bad two years. I’d rather take a gamble on pick 11.

Agree. Considering we get bent over with our outgoing players.
If we could cop a little win and get him for a second rounder that would be mint.
If he comes out and says he wants to come to us then I'm sure we'll work something out and keep picks 2 and 11.

Don't mind it. Beats the hell out of losing BB to the PSD.

Nah **** Melbourne, they’re absolutely taking the piss and have been from the start. I would love for us to find a way to negotiate a swap with the Pies for Brown. I’d even be happy to take on some of his salary to allow the move. Dees can then **** off and if there are any complaints from Brown, we walk him to the PSD.

That's a more complex tattooing challenge than changing Winona to Wino, though.
Not if there is a facial portrait involved. Just need to pretend you were into Stephenson before he got drafted and he still had foppish length.
 
Just quietly, I'd be stoked if we could do pick 11 for Stephenson and Collingwood's 2021 1st. Maybe throw in a 2021 3rd to balance it out.

They want picks ahead of the McInnes bid this season, plus want to get out of next years draft due to Daicos.

I also think there's a distinct chance the pies absolutely fall off a cliff next season. They have an aging core and a woeful forward line, but seem to think they can still contend. We could really clean up if they start talking future picks.
 
The prob with walking players to the psd is that the players pretty much say they will sit out if another team picks them like Luke ball did and they end up going to the team for free.

They cannot do that.
