Cal Twomey's Phantom Form Guide: Top draft prospects' July ranking
Draft guru Cal Twomey has dropped his July rankings of the 2021 draft poolwww.afl.com.au
Matt Roberts at 15.
That's not a realistic offer to expect.Didn't we trade 4 for 6 and a future 1st? (Ended up pick 9 or something)
That's more in the ballpark.
Also I think we'll have pick 3
I should have clarified, it was a superdraft at tge top end..the top 7 were considered well above the next group at the timeI think the super draft makes a worse indication
Picks are worth more, including the ones coming in
4 for 9 & 17 gets you laughed at in regular draft. 6 for 11,23,37 is better when 23 & 37 are worth more
I’m hanging up the phone and cursing the mother of anyone who offers me 9 & 17 for pick 4

Or 9 & 17 gets Aaron Naughton and Jack Higgins, 4 gets you Luke Davies-Unakie?9 and 17 gets you a Jones and McHenry. 4 gets you a Max King. Pretty sure I know which one I’d be taking.

Thats why it was such a disaster for us watching port get inside that top 7 with a worse selection of picks than we had.9 and 17 gets you a Jones and McHenry. 4 gets you a Max King. Pretty sure I know which one I’d be taking.
I don't think you can use the Stocker trade to compare - that trade involved future picks where there is always a bit of a gamble for the clubs involved. I doubt the bLoos would have traded pick 4 (heck, it could have been pick 1!) for 9 and 19 from the same draft period.I should have clarified, it was a superdraft at tge top end..the top 7 were considered well above the next group at the time
As for the 4 for 9 & 17, its close to what we paid to get carlton's pick 4 in the stocker trade. I'd not be closing the book on a trade like that if it happened far enough out if we were comfortable we would be getting a comparable talent at 9 as we would at 4 if that 17 + another of our picks could be used to get back up the order around 12 or 13. I guess i would be open minded on things unless the player we want wont be there after 4
its cal... of course i’m not confident reading Roberts at 15.. Cal barely ever gets it right.. especially this far out.. he normally gets some good intel in the day or two before the draft.. rest of the time he’s unreliable.I wouldn't be confident in that based on some other clubs boards here on BF.
9 and 17 gets you butters and Dursama9 and 17 gets you a Jones and McHenry. 4 gets you a Max King. Pretty sure I know which one I’d be taking.
This is a good plan. Package up our seconds to move into the first round. Might be possible...I know it's a long way out and rankings will likely change considerably between now and draft night. If it is looking as though Roberts is around the 15 mark like in Cal's phantom, I'd hope we keep our pick 3-4 where it is, and then find a way to move into that 10-15 range to grab Roberts. Gives us the best available mid at our first pick and then the 2nd best SA mid with Roberts with our 2nd.

That's not a realistic offer to expect.
GWS did that because of Green, to get ahead of bids.
They need 2500 points to match a pick 1 bid on Daicos and there's an old Emma Quayle article which indicated clubs can carry forward around 1700 points into the next year as a deficit, so if they do nothing else that just wipes out their r1 pick next year.Question - given that Collingwood only has 1600 odd draft points, and their 1st pick has gone to GWS, how the hell will they be able to put together any kind of a bid to get Daicos, who Cal Twomey has listed at pick 1?
They would be signing away even more future first and second round draft picks to get 1 player?
9 & 17 doesn’t get you 4
Or in other words Naughton.
A lucky pick at 9 doesn’t make it worth more
Thats why it was such a disaster for us watching port get inside that top 7 with a worse selection of picks than we had.
If you take the next draft though it gets you a kosiah picket and mitch georgiades for lachie ash..puts a different perspective on things
Fair enoughI’d hang up and then fire anyone who thought that was a good deal
It’s ******* horrendous
