I think you are right, would be nothing better than getting in Pickett and Bolton, but, more likely we will end up with just Bolton or as planned Bolton and Baker. Surely, Melbourne is going to go all out to stop the bleeding from their team (unlike Richmond who appear to be on the rebuild) and will simply say no to Pickett, they just can’t afford to lose him.

Possibly they will just say no, but they will weigh up how Kozzy will respond to that, some players would get on with it, others drop their bundle and lose form.

They may also decide not having disgruntled players on the list is important to arrest the constant leak’s destabilising the club.

Also may depend on how they see the draft, and where they see themselves over the next 3-5 years.

I can’t recall the Dees holding players to contracts, have there been any over the last few years?

We kinda just roll eyes at Dan, I shouldn't have bitten.
He is funny though. Meanwhile my friend who has contact with Dockers board members and gets told plenty of inside information which I share a bit of only online has said Freo was contacted by Boltons mamager in July not the other way round andhe beleves a deal has already been arranged and Baker comes it would be a seperate deal.

He's also said the club wants another pressure forward which is why they've made a play for Joe Richards but if he choses Port they've also inquired about Malcolm Rosas Jnr from GC who's apparently elite at pressure stats and was averaging 2 goals and 10 possessions a game before he suffered a very bad hamstring injury last year. When he came back he played a few games but his form dropped off.. I think he's a potential bargain.

Honestly good luck to the coasters if they go that route - trading or even splitting 3. The short answer is they won’t. They did that once before and understand significant consequences of doing so.

I understand the coasters are chasing Baker and there are other mid range (in terms of trade cost) players they will hit up as part of trades (names like Denver GB and Devan Robertson) and Free agency pick-up with no loss of draft picks in Jack Graham.

One thing they won’t be doing is trading out pick 3.

They will get pick 12-14 or whatever the Hawks end up with, which is lower than the 9 or 10 we end up with. The other non-negotiable will be trading F1.

I’d ignore the antagonist.
 
Baker can come in the situation that Bolton and Pickett are already traded in, if we have extra capital for funsies then sure, bring in Baker.

Petracca and Pickett for Reid?
While you're here would you mind explaining again why we can use our 2025 first in trading this year. Im still not quite sure how that works exactly. Ryan Daniels who I rate has just said on social media basically Freo cant use their 2025 first rounder due to the 2 1sts in 4 year rule.

Erasmus and Amiss.
We’ve used two firsts on the last 4 years

We used two picks in 2021. That was 21,22,23,24 three years ago. We can trade future firsts.

Ryno is talking about next year when we want to trade a future first again for Chad Warner. That one might be a bit more complicated.
