How does Twomey's Suns trade work?

" will be a wait and see who gets through to St Kilda's third pick after their two early selections but they have been looking to move up the board and are expected to trade a future third-round pick for Melbourne's pick 42. They will then likely turn that pick, plus 40, into Gold Coast's pick 27, handing the Saints three top-30 selections. "

The way i see it, if someone bids on Walter 2, or 3, pick 27 will cease to exist.
At pick 4, pick 27 might slide out to round 3 or 4.
Maybe if he was bid on at pick 5.

Will they do it before the start of the draft?
If so , why didn't they already do it at trade week?

Probably waiting to see who is available, who slides, who they rate at that pick still being there, etc
 
I like the look of this kid more than DeMattia at 13 😂



A ruck capable of dominating the domain on his day, Green has seldom had an issue racking up hitouts. This year, his averages of 22.8 hitouts and 6.5 to advantage at Coates Talent League level were boosted to 24.3 and 8.0 in the National Championships, highlighting his ability against the best possible opposition. Ruck craft is clearly Green's top trait and he's a clever hitter, often improvising while utilising his size and reach.

He may not be a particularly high-production player elsewhere just yet, but is certainly taking great strides in that department. Green's best game this year came in Round 9 with the Knights, where he posted 22 disposals, five marks, 18 hitouts and two goals. His ability to take grabs around the ground, follow up on his ruck work, and even impact up forward were ultra impressive.

Though, that effort was more so an indicator of his ceiling rather than the norm. Of Green's 13 Talent League games, nearly half yielded single-digit disposals and he only hit the scoreboard in two of them. Going forward, boosting his consistency of production and maintaining a steadier output from week to week will be key to proving just how effective Green can be as the primary ruck.

It's certainly an attainable goal. The 204cm big man is mobile and has a great running base. His 2km time at the National Draft Combine (6:34) is up there with some midfielders in the same crop, and allows him to move from contest to contest. If he can get his hands on the ball, Green's fundamental skills and overall mechanics are quite sound too, meaning he can join in on the play with high efficiency and little fuss.

With enough nourishment in an AFL environment, Green can become a tall who does many things which are elite for a player his size. He kicks well, moves well, has clean hands, runs down smaller players, and is an extremely dextrous with his touch. With those attributes combined, there is more than enough substance to see him given a chance, and the best is yet to come.



agree. i dont think going a ruck is a bad thing.

Trade would have to be immediate wouldn’t it?

You don’t have to wait your turn.

So once proceedings open. You imagine the trades drop and we land 27.

For Twomey to know. It’s probably done and waiting to be announced. Hence the black out on trades a week before the draft
 
Smoke and mirrors that green pick I think. Probably want to do a trade with north to get there two picks for our pick. Meaning we would probably still be able to draft either Demattia or edwards (or both) or potentially Hardeman
Angus Hastie looks similar to Hardeman's playing style, & out of the Geelong factory

For Context and who knows how many games were full time mid these are the guys we are all talking about and a few others for comparison purposes

Coates Talent League Average Disposals
Dimattia 19
Edwards 17
Windsor 19
Wilson 25
Simpson 22
Schoenmaker 27

Harley Reid 19
Sanders 31
McKercher 29
Ferronato 28 (and he wont get drafted)

Ferronato 28 (and he wont get drafted)
Simpson & Wilson thanks, both like a goal too.
Schoenmaker reminding me of Kamdyn McIntosh-Tigers
Ferronato may get a rookie spot?
 
Will Murphy still be avaiable there?
Expected to be.

Not sure he is who we are targeting though and I believe we are targeting someone at this pick. It’s such a random spot to come into and it will work out roughly 5 spots better then we were if we held 40
