Auction timeRichmond is keen to trade for Collingwood’s No.27 pick in next month’s draft – which would give the club five selections inside the top 30 – with 38 and 40 in play now it has parted with 42 and 47.
Those selections could help the Pies complete the Patrick Lipinski deal with the Western Bulldogs. Essendon is also showing interest in Collingwood’s top pick.
Agreed. 95% of the risk sits with the Bulldogs. So why should we be the ones jumping through hoops when the Bulldogs can get creative. I'd hope that Wright would be clear to Sam Power that he's willing to accept the 5% risk that North jumps on Lipinski.No they aren’t. We aren’t going to do a deal that compromises our needs, and if a deal doesn’t get done then we have the option of using the PSD, which Wright subtly indicated today could be a possibility.
We can provide their points without compromising our draft position, it’s then their prerogative to make another suitable trade to reduce the amount of list splats they have to use, just like we’ve already done.
The smartest post I've read today.Maybe the Dogs don’t have a false sense of their position.
It may be a case they want to drag this out to the last moment in the hope we blink first as an attempt to maximise their return for a player who has asked to be traded.
If they intend to do a deal to prevent him going to the PSD, then it serves them best to wait until the very end.
Just a thought.
The smartest post I've read today.
Marc McGowan from the Hun is reporting Richmond may use picks 38 and 40 to trade for 27.
I think we did that because it made sure Reef went a couple of places lower than he could have gone.We bid on Lachie Jones too
27 to Richmond for 38 and 40?
One of them to Dogs for Lipinski, the other should cover Daicos points.

Understand but this isn't Ned with his hands on the reins this is GW.Maybe the Dogs don’t have a false sense of their position.

With 5 senior list spots available, we could currently use 27, 36, 43, 46 and 48 to match for Daicos. This is 2216 points.So pick 27 = 703 points, pick 38 (465) + pick 40(429) = 894
Seems like good business. If we lose 43 (378) our Daicos points position is still strong.

Agreed it destroys the credibility we have built up already in this draft I WON'T be happy and we fold to their demands.Because ultimately the outcome will have been that we essentially traded out our future second just to match the bid on Daicos and not much else? Or, if you prefer, we're strengthening everyone else's draft hand except our own with these repeated downgrades.
It would be a bloody terrible outcome if that's the case, given the value our future second may have held and the value that pick 22 this year actually did hold, which as hard as it may be to see in this points-trading frenzy, is far more than their underlying DVI points value.

Think you’re giving seasons 5 - 7 too much credit. If the clubs trade period was up to there I’d be already calling for Wright’s head.Game of Thrones was a masterpiece that peaked in season 4, was still pretty damn good by the close of season 7 and turned to sh*t in season 8. They ultimately tried to squeeze too much in to that final season and I feel like we’re leaving ourselves with a lot of work to do with this trade. Not an insurmountable amount, but a lot all the same…

If Daicos gets to pick 3 we don't need 27 so we can trade it for a future second + change.Does anyone think we'll be able to nab a future second and a few later points for Daicos this year for pick 27.
So pick 27 = 703 points, pick 38 (465) + pick 40(429) = 894

I hope we do this but with Richmond's future second thrown in. Make them pay.
