I remember for the period at the end of 2018, Aaron Francis was the best player in the world. heck me he could play, shame it didn’t work out.

It was always pointed that he never had enough of a tank to play out a full game and it was our job to improve him.

We never did.

 

[Kyptastic]

Huge if true

 

[Gumby2Hurley]

Guessing something like 21 27 30 or 21 27 and a future 2nd to keep 30 for our academy bids?.

 

[Skipper_]

I love Matt Rosa

 

[Keystone agony]

Hope F2 isnt involved, but makes it hard to believe it wouldnt be

21, 27, 30, 43, 54 and norths 25 would be alot of points id imagine (most of these move in a fair bit aswell though) maybe not so much if the bid is at pick 3 which Twomey said theyd then trade though

Maybe not

Maybe we get
9, 43, North 46, 54

For
21, 27, 30

 

[Keystone agony]

I do feel were letting Sharp slip to 9 now though

Taking 1 of Robey/Cumming and Farrow

 

[rusman]

Do you trade 5,6,9 for 3,4 and 38 (if they don’t use it now with the extra pick)

cumming Grlj dov/farrow etc

Vs

Robey Taylor and points for sweid.

 

[Hazardinho]

This is telling me Carlton feel Dean is gonna get a bid early from West Coast. It’s interesting how little they’re getting from both us and north Melbourne for their picks. There was one Richmond itk that’s been adamant Essendon will take Robey, Taylor and Dovoston, and Richmond will take Sharp and Cumming, even said Essendon would trade up for Carlton’s pick. Then we see those 3 player at the hangar this week. Imagine he was right…

Nope, definitely not.

Every chance we get Robey and Taylor at 5 and 6 anyways based on recent rumours.

 

[Hazardinho]

I’ll be honest guys if we trade up for pick 9 and pick Schubert, I’m gonna be very f****** angry.

Laylor Smiley sharpe cumming

kinda works

I mean clearly fans rate Robey cause cal and the story. But dees and dons both interested in cumming. Maybe he is considered the better prospect for the legit scouts.

I’m not sure about Robey. Cool how much he’s come along this year, but he didn’t play in the national championships, so there isn’t much evidence of him playing against the best u18 kids. If Melbourne want him so bad, I’d be happy with them paying 7, 37 and 63 to get up to 5. 63 will move up so far it’ll become valuable to use on a bid for Sweid with 37 (I think they should match it on him, not sure about El-Achkar).

Maybe missed playing against the interstate sides but he had a cracker of a final series here.
Oliver did not play Champs.

So if this pick swap is legit, when will it go through? Is the pick trade window open or do we have to wait till the draft night?

Draft night because it’s currently closed

 

[Atavistic]

Trading up for 9 seems like the perfect move for us.

I'm excited about the prospect of Kako and Dovaston working together. Should make the forward line function a lot better.

 

[FlyingV]

if we get 9 - I hope we are considering Dovaston or O.Taylor

 

[Bunk Moreland]

Three picks in the top 10!

I haven’t been this pumped since 2020

 

[Red Black and Blue]

hows the swap gonna work if it’s just 21 and 27? Points value goes up after the early bids? Pick 13 for 21 and 25?

 

[Red Black and Blue]

It’ll be pick 13 by the time we use it.

 

[ant555]

If we are moving up to 9 I suspect it may not be either of them.

It is but it is still 3 out of the 5 or 6 we are looking at.
