An interesting read for those wanting to trade up to pick 2 to secure Callaghan.


Compare the Pair: Finn Callaghan / Josh Sinn (Sandringham Dragons/Vic Metro) - Aussie Rules Draft Central
That was written before Callaghan moved to the midfield and went ballistic. He had 19, 13 and 24 touches in his first three games, at half-back, then 31, 31, 28 in the midfield to win Sandy's B&F with 76 votes (second got 69). Sinn never had more than 20 touches and finished equal 10th in their B&F with 14 votes.

If you watch them play you see the difference. Callaghan has time and makes space. He's quick, has great spatial awareness of what's around him and a beautiful jink-step. Sinn is a dasher but more of a straight line player.

Have a sneaky suspicion he's the one @7.(If he's still there).
He'll still be there at 15(17) and I hope we ignore him there too. Sloooow. He had 10 touches yesterday.

Out of interest who would be your choice?
 
Let's get Callaghan. Trade 7 and 15 to the Giants and get the midfielder with the most potential in the draft.

If not Im asking Brisbane how much they want Pick 7. Can't split the guys from 4-20.
Not as silly as it sounds.
Along with the Dogs pick we could corner the draft so to speak.
14/15/17/18/26/28.
7 & 38>>Bris
39/40/44/54ish(Chol comp)>>Dogs

At 7(9)? Ward, if he lasts. Which he won't. Or Amiss and then go mids, but he might not be there either given Freo is likely to have the pick before ours. Maybe Sonsie. His quiet NAB League game was 15 disposals in Round 9 after missing 4 games. His other games he had 34 and 2 goals, 21, 21 and 2 goals, and 24 and one goal. He was poor for the AFL Academy vs Geelong reserves, but had 24 and 2 goals on debut for Box Hill. Quick, skillful, goal-kicking mid.

Josh Rachele is another I'd consider. Very talented, great kick. Hybrid forward/mid. We could possibly have the chance to get both. The good news is we need quick, classy players and there are plenty of them in this draft.

Agree on the classy players.
Need class by foot.
 
If we end up trading say CCJ for Tarrant and 38, and end up with 39 for Chol compo, would we be better off trading 38, 39, 40, 44 for Dogs 17/18? Ends up around 1702 points and I don't see us taking more than 5 players in the main draft.
5 picks ND would be great opportunity to address multiple needs

leave a spot or 2 for selections post draft and Midseason.

looking like outs
CJ
Chol
Astbury
Houli
Naish
Egg
Caddy ?
Garth??
Pickett ( if he requests a return to WA)

Ins
Tarrant
X5 ND
X1 post draft

Who of the mids would be compared to Cerra if we are still at him
 
Exciting times. Our draft hand is strong and likely to get stronger. If we can manage to get dogs pick 17 or 18 and Norths pick 20 (hoping), that's 4 picks within the top 20

Pick 9 - Amiss, Erasmus, Goater
Pick 17 - Sin, Sonsie, Rachele, Butler, Johnson, Roberts, Draper
Picks 19/21 - Roberts, Butler, Nasiah Wanganeen-Milera, Chesser

As much as he's a talented young lad I would not entertain Mac Andrew at our first pic. He's a bean pole (70 kgs), will take 3 years min. Our ruck stocks ain't old, Nank 27, Soldo 25, Samson Ryan 20 years old/206 cms and Colina who may or may not make it but he's 22 years old/ 213 cms
 
I see a lot of posts where we offer the dogs a heap of picks for their first rounder.
They won’t have enough list spots to be able to stockpile that many picks so we will need to offer lower picks and less of them to get their pick.
They have announced that you can carry two extra picks for live trading purposes during the draft
 
Sam Skinner has been impressive for South Adelaide since moving to defence and will be picked up. If we still have our picks in late 30's/early 40's I would be using one on him.

I think you can just sign him if he agrees.

There’s been a fair bit of talk about him on different threads, sounds as though he might be on a few clubs radars.
Exposed form has got to count for a lot considering the lack of footy at all levels in Vic
 
Not sure about that, we could have picked him up in the MSD same as Schlengsog but now they both have to nominate for the draft.

Skinner has had 4 ACL's, bit of a risk.
I thought ex AFL can sign on these days like Zac Clarke did for Bummers in that SSP period

Had 2 before he was 20, had 3 operations first reco was a failed patella tendon reco.
Gawn had 2 before he was 20, maybe with your opinion Melbourne should reconsider keeping Maxy

Not really fussed if we end up with the doggies pick #17/#18 to be honest as its only 8/9 spots after our #26 and 10 spots after our #28
this years draft pool you could throw a blanket over from picks #15 - #30 and every team will have these players ranked differently

e.g We may have Rhett Bazzo or Ned Long ranked 15-20 but very good chance they are both still available at pick #26 & #28
Im not sure if its worth trading picks 38,39,40 for pick #17/#18 when we could possibly get pick #18-#21 in 2022

Im happy just to take 7 , 15 , 26 , 28 this year and have another loaded hand next year as well

Don’t disagree but we will be looking to upgrade picks in my opinion. Especially if we get a reasonable pick from Norf for CCJ and a decent compo pick for losing Chol.

I wouldnt be in a major rush to trade these later picks to be honest

We seen last year that clubs were in a position at picks in the late 30's or 40's where a player they liked was available but they didnt have a pick so traded their future picks to grab that player.

Carlton may trade their picks #6 + #25 for Cerra and see a player they rated still available at pick #40 and decide to trade 2022 2nd rounder for our #40
we then have a pick like #28 in 2022 etc.

We could end up with 38,39,40,44 and possibly move them into 2022 ending up with 3 more 2nd round picks ending up with a strong hand in 2022
Richmond have great flexibility with our hand this year

Oh wow. That makes getting a deal done with the Dogs even easier.
Totally missed this announcement. Do you have a link so I can read about the details of it?

Draft rules so confusing these days. I've been trying to find info on whether the Mumford/Zac Clarke SSP rule still exists. If it does, in theory if you wanted a previously delisted player you could just tell them not to nominate for the draft and chuck them on your rookie list afterwards. Skinner would be very handy if we could get him for free.

Ok, well 3 operations, said it was a bit of a risk, didn't say that he should be delisted.

Unlike what your club did.
