Ultimate Glory 2023 Trade speculation and Shinbeggars discussion

[WatWouldCyrilDo]

Duursma or bust dragt?

If duursmass is not available, for me i would trade back or look to future picks

You would trade pick 4 for a future pick? Lucky you're not in charge.

 

[peetoo]

I'll take any/all of:
The Bont
Andrews
Taylor
LDU
Brayshaw
Weitering
Allen

Bring out the war chest.

Brayshaw was the compo pick from frawley? Bont should have been our compo pick from buddy

 

[Sixpence]

Angus was, not Andrew. Freo got Andrew thanks to GC being grossly incompetant and giving up pick 2 for Lachie Weller.

So in your fantasy land why do we randomly get pick 4? I’m all for valid criticism of the compensation system in free agency but you can’t just make up a draft pick to say ‘boo hoo we could have had him!’. I’ll take the threepeat over the Bont.

Just spitting in the breeze mate

i reckon we will look to pry one of those "pre-agents" away while also making a big play for an FA. hopefully another year of development and we will start looking even more attractive to players on the market

 

[Dewnior]

We more than have the money, but do we have the gumption?

$5.20 at Woolies. Who should I send it to?

LMAO, mix in a water bud

If WCE trade 1 for 2 and another pick or 2. We could consider trading 4 for their 2 and we throw in a future 2nd? We can take Dursma and they still get Curtin.

Assuming Curtin is who they're after. Maybe they want Duursma.

 

[Back Pocket Rocket]

If West Coast get 2 and 3 I'd be willing to bet that they'd take Curtin and McKercher. In this scenario there is no need to trade any assets and move up.

They won't get that trade.
North more likely to trade for Cats pick, and package up with 2.

 

[flinchfree]

I see that as a solid core of talent to build around and add to.
I'm not as sold as some as to the certainty of that list having the star quality we need to be a contender.

Jagging a bonafied alpha star this draft would have been the cherry we needed.

Walter or Reid would have been perfect.
Not to be. There's still hope at our pick, but no certainty. Much like our list.

Every chance any of the next 4-5 players taken on the wish list are every bit as good or better than those two.

 

[dermie50]

Yeah because Sam Taylor played a whopping 4 games and averaged an amazing 8 touches a game in year 3. Year 4 is usually when a young a key defender/forward really starts to blossom. Cut DGB some slack ffs.

I have to come in here and remind people that the Hawthorn side, loaded with top-end draft talent- Mitchell, Roughead, Franklin, Lewis -was thrashed by Adelaide by nearly 100 points. The then hope-driven Hawk supporters were crying... will they be any good?
I reckon they turned out okay! Looks like a case of de ja vu as now we have a similar cry.

Only difference being the derogatory threads about hawthorn didn’t go on for pages or years?

Seriously, the Adelaide north hawthorn thread is now going into its fourth year. In 2000 it wouldn’t have. Bigfooty it’s own worst enemy

Was pretty interesting to compare the progress of Hawthorn, Richmond and Doggies who each got the super draft picks in 2004.

We got Buddy and Roughy
Richmond got Tambling and Deledio
Doggies got Griffen and Williams.
(It's interesting that only 2 of those 6 were one-club players)

I'd say we did pretty well.
Richmond got a double dip not long later with Cotchin and Dusty and that worked out pretty well for them.

Is that poster psicosis still banging on that Norf have the best youf?

Always goes missing during the season when it becomes obvious how bad the Shinbeggars are.

Will no doubt be back again come January and February.

Cotchin and Martin were different drafts

Popped up a few times in the draft/trade forum around trade period

 

[hawkinoz]

Did some one say Wardy is ready to go

Bigfooty etc including hawthorn fans were openly derisory then. Not all quite a divide. Getting two top 5 KPP prospects when all the talls seemed to be breaking down seemed super logical to many
