2024 Picks



2025 Picks

 

[Strapping Young Lad]

Was certainly a tough listen today.

I usually cruise through at 1.5x speed to see if there's anything on Smith, Battle, Hardwick, Hawks. Usually not. But if there is anything, it's a waste of oxygen.

I think they need to change the title to unlistenable.

 

[Hawk the Talk]

Cals love for the Bombers is so evident… that’s enough to put me off.

 

[tl92]

I will never get over the fact that this goober tries to tell other people that ‘adults shouldn’t wear guernseys to the footy’ as if it’s a bad thing wearing your teams colours to the game. Can’t stand the dweeb.

Even a broke clock is right twice a day.

 

[TylerDurden]

Cal has Dodo on speed dial. Hence the heavy Dons focus.

 

[Hawked Wings]

This is how Cal gets his hair cut too
Flogga

 

[Brucie Buffer]

I’m nearly 50 and wear mine when I’m watching my team on TV

Or simply put “4” in front.

 

[Hodginator]

Cals love for the Bombers is so evident… that’s enough to put me off.

Yeah, he really struggles (or doesn’t even try) to hide it.

 

[tl92]

Would there be any interest in Jack Lukosios?

 

[smish]

Would there be any interest in Jack Lukosios?

I would say absolutely, but I've heard he's only interested in staying at GCS or going back to SA.

 

[FB19]

Would there be any interest in Jack Lukosios?

Yes but he surely is crows bound SA boy they need another forward to replace Tex seems a straightforward fit.

 

[killerspud]

If I were the Crows and the Suns id actually do that trade now while Tex has a year or two left - the suns get Tex to mentor King and Walter for a year of two and they could still command a 1st round from the crows. Crows get their man and Tex gets his super payout

Interesting idea not what I meant I just see him replacing Tex when he retires not a swap.

Suns should straight up fold if they give a first round pick for a 35 year old.

 

[Sixpence]

Suns should straight up fold

FIFY

 

[Dewnior]

Unwatchable has a better ring to it.

They said that about the Bowes deal. AFL call all the shots for GC so nothing would surprise me.

 

[killerspud]

No. i meant the Suns still RECEIVE a first round pick for Lukocious whilst also getting Tex

 

[killerspud]

Unwatchable has a better ring to it.

Ive thought about this too much and think it should be called
For-gettable

"Hawthorn have wanted to sign him for awhile now, he has a connection with Alastair Clarkson and he knows his talents, can play as a reliable defender but also a small forward, if I'm North Melbourne I'll be asking the question especially with alot of money to spens"

Love Dimma but if he wanted to leave and it would net us Band 1 compo, he’s got my blessing.

Don't worry, most of us read it that way.

I'm hearing any deal for Bailey Smith

to Collingwood is 100% off.

Hawthorn bound with their first pick involved.

Pies dont have the draft capital to make it happen. Dogs at a point where they know his exit is imminent. Will maximise value.

Dogs get: Pick 8, 2025 Round 2 (Haw)
Dogs give: Bailey Smith

, Pick 9
Hawks give: Pick 3, 2025 round 2(Haw)

Thats essentially what I've heard.

Suns need to get above any picks for Academy players, and currently at 8/9 thats a risk.

Points wise this rates Bailey Smith

at roughly a pick 9.

 

[Blackhawk42]

News of a proposed mid season trade period falling over due to unrest from the interstate clubs is actually music to my ears.

I guess the point is fair. There will be far movement between Victorian clubs than anywhere else.

 

[Ned Ryerson]

As posted on the trading board. Not sure how legit, but actually seems fair and works for all parties.

In a mid-heavy draft I would absolutely do a swap of picks with the Bulldogs if it still landed us close to the first available 10 players. Future second and a minor pick slide for Baz - pull the trigger.
