Not much to it

Has is sending Ryan plus our Hawthorn R1 pick to the Saints for their R1 pick

Then draft Duursma and CDT with our first two picks and Lindsay with the Saints pick which overlooks the probability he doesn’t last till then

He also thinks Erasmus should stay at Freo and we should chase O’Driscoll
I don't mind O'Driscoll, but we don't need wingers/outside players. We need inside contested ball winners.

Erasmus would be nice. He's in that bunch with Davies, where if we could get for our/hawks 2nd rounder would consider it. Probably prefer him over Davies to be honest given he's two year younger.
 
Are we talking about the same Elliott Yeo that would fail skin fold tests the week he returns to the club after Xmas breaks?? This has been a perennial problem with our club.. leadership is also about setting training and dietary standards... not just showing some appetite for a contest on game day..
Kane Cornes is that you?
 
Duursma seems like he's firming for Pick 1 - is that awkward for Harley given his prior relationship? I'm sure they're able to get past it regardless...but a bit odd

Don't think he'll care.

He grew up with the family. Just because he's not dating Yasmin anymore, doesn't mean his relationship with the brothers is any different.

I can't see it being an issue.
 
Apart from the night life, Perth is a nicer place to live than Melbourne hands down. I've lived in Melbourne, it's blody freezing cold with grey skies even in summer. Their beaches are crap compared to ours as well. People banging on about go home factor need to realise how much Perth has to offer.

How many of our recent Vic/interstate draftees have gone home rather than re-signing recently? I can't think of a single one.

We've talked about Murphy Reid ad nauseum but we could have a potential rising star on our list, as opposed to a player that the jury is still well and truly out on, because we were too chicken s**t to back ourselves in.

Perth rules. Melbourne drools.
I'm not saying that in the slightest just that duursma's whole family lives in Victoria and has 3 siblings all playing afl/aflw in Melbourne.

His brother also left port to go back to Victoria.

I also think spending pick 1 on an outside player is stupid .

So we draft 2 outside players and a tall maybe ruck ?

We need a ball pig with leadership skills and an atheltic goal kicking balanced mid/HFF .

A kicker off the HBF would be nice too but not with our first 2 picks
 
OK my mega trade.

Ryan + 12 to Saints for 7.

1 to Dons for 4+22+25.

22+30 to Lions for 17.

17+19+48 to Suns for 6.

Go to draft with 2,4,6 and 7.


I am sure I have gone wrong somewhere in the maths though.

This is an argument to split 1 if there's a right bid for it.

I personally want CDT and Sharp, but Sharp and two others by way of on trade works nicely for me.

Ryan plus 12 for 7 looks way unders for me. Would need some downstream swapsies in our favour to make Liam Ryan only worth a 5 pick upgrade.

According to the point value, that would only value Liam Ryan as a pick 33. No thanks

All in all not bad there Big Bird, I don't hate it, aside from the swapping of future picks in our favour for Liam Ryan
 
Fair enough. Speaking of which, when do the points get locked in? After compo picks allocated i assume? But then, do points change once picks are burnt on matching? Or are they still locked as per pre draft?

Yeah definitely asking the wrong guy. I just used the pick calculator website, but don’t really know how it all works
 


Can anyone do their magic

The only way we're turning Ryan into a top 10 pick is by trading the late first or early second we'll get from him from the Saints. Seeing as the Saints don't have those picks, we either get a player and a top 10 pick doesn't happen, or a third team gets involved.

Depends where their NGA ends up being rated. They won't want their current first being eaten up by a bid.

Currently he's expected to go first round. Where is the question.
 
Clay Hall was only caught chasing in one of those.

Looks like some people owe me an apology

Lol, what's even dumber is that it looks like Bailey is the one who actually hit it to Warner as well 🤦‍♂️
 
This is what we need to solve. The ease at which teams clear the ball out.



Yep. No a big deal if it’s one here and there but when teams do that 2 or 3 times in the space of a quarter, that’s how teams scorer 7goals to 0 against us in a quarter.

Really shoudnt be that hard to fix stopping that, learning how to able to do that is a lot harder.

Which one is Saints NGA?
