another near miss from memory - Tomlinson for about pick 11 was almost a done deal, instead we had to settle for Charlie Curnow :-(

The rumour was simply they inquired about Marchbank...as they should since they are short of KPD's.
Sounds like we are inquiring about just about every player in the league, including other clubs' captains.
The poster said it was not an indication that we would actually trade him or that he wants to go, just that Sydney asked...nothing more.
Let's all relax.

Surely we could trade our 2 third round picks for a second
Yes, I'd much rather get a young draftee next year in first round than skip it.
This years draft we can afford to skip early rounds to ensure we get more ready made players.

Ah yea good pickup, although if i recall we would have selected Curnow with that pick instead and missed out on McKay.
Still, another massive blessing in disguise.
Who knows, maybe even the Coniglio one will be too if we land someone with the money we would have thrown his way next year (eg Whitfield).
Possibly.
We are just assuming because firstly, Liddle has been quite vocal about us trading out this years first rounder for a mature player.
Also, clubs would typically prefer the pick right now, rather than have to wait a year to cash in...unless there were specific reasons to wait like an academy kid.

Random discussion starter: Harry McKay would be more valuable at the trade table than Charlie Curnow. Discuss...
JUST A HYPOTHETICAL NOT SUGGESTING WE TRADE EITHER...

Which Sydney have next year, so might want future picks for their academy picks seeing as this draft is shallow.

Apparently Whatley said on SEN that Norf would have gotten pick 9 as FA Compo if Goldstein left. Although I think that is nonsense, massive lol to Norf it was true
How convenient of him to say that after the fact Goldstein just re-signed with North for 3 more years.

F off...
Marchbank has become a key player in our defense and has had some bad luck with injury. I'll stick with the mantra.
Of course it's opinion but it's a pretty good one.
March has teased us with some great 3rd defender games but has had a huge problem staying on the park. On another downside, I don't see him as able to play as 1st or 2nd defender.
If it was a straight swap, it would be a strongly considered.
From deano35 on TC.
Marchbank isn't going anywhere.
Clubs can only ask the question like West Coast do every year with Cripps.
You have a wishlist and work your way down.
Pick 8 will be enough IF the Giraffe leaves the ZOO

Whately is probably communicating out of his posterior....
IF true and I was North (yuck), I would have let Goldy go and used pick 9 and Goldy salary to pry Rowan Marshall from Saints...
Instant replacement and I get 8 years' more service from nowhere.
I agree this year will be Carlton preference, but thinking like Sydney, next year better draft, would expect pick 8-12. If I’m Sydney I’m wanting that.
Then let’s say Essendon get involved, is Carlton 2020 First more appealing than pick 8?
Then it makes things sticky for Carlton because if they trade the 2020 first instead of 8, without the AFL ticking it off they can’t trade a 2020 second & without a 2019 Martin becomes complicated & may end up with GC getting 8 with the Brisbane first for this year coming back

You can't kick goals when you're unconscious.
I'm certainly not an ITK, but I've been told by someone that usually feeds me solid info that Jacobs is a done deal to Blues, UNLESS Geelong make him an offer, but nothing has been forthcoming... but this might change as Goldy has re-signed.
Opinion based on facts*
With all the talk about pick 8 & Papley, is he really worth pick 8 regardless of contract status? - he didn’t make all Australian squad let alone the team.
I’m pretty confident that it’s a firm no for 8, he would be great addition and what we need but I can’t see parting with 8- it’s overs

In contract for multi years he is certainly worth giving up pick 8 to get him now...

AA is irrelevant. Lucky to get 1 proper actual small forward named in the AA squad each year.
Unless it's someone named Cyril kicking 30 goals and everyone fapping over it
I’m so sick of all this pick 8 in this years draft is not worth pick 8 in another draft.
No one knows, some recruiters have said this years draft has 2 standouts and then is even after that. Nw everyone reckons they are an expert and continues to say that this draft is weak in this thread
