So why has Harley Reid no signed on yet? His definitely going but what will we get for him?

 

[Wooshaaaa]

It about the value you are swapping pick 1 for compared to other drafts.

Pick 1 in a non compromised draft could be traded for with 5 and 20. All good.

But in another draft that is compromised that pick 5 ends up pick 10 and 20 becomes 30 then it's a dud deal.

Something else needs to be added.

Pick 1 is pick 1. The quality of the player ranked pick 1 also a factor.

Why give up a diamond for access to players ranked 10 + and 30+.

So the level a draft is compromised does effect what you accept for pick 1 or 2.

Ok

So we trade pick one for 5 6 and you say that's the equivalent of say 9 10.

But then the bombers actually bid on who they believe is the best player at that pick. There are some who have all three NGAs ahead of duursma

So the bombers big on all three and then take duusma at pick 4.

So then our trade becomes pick 4 for 9 and 10.

You can't argue the goose and not the gander.

I’m aware I am in the minority but I think trading away Willem Duursma will be a huge mistake, he has everything you want in a star.

I think if his last name wasn’t Duursma, this board and the general public would be a lot more keen on him.

[Deplorable trumpster]

We should be able to do with HR what we did with Judd which is use our relationships in the corporate world in WA to set him up off field aside from what we re directly paying him. Then we could pay him a bit less than what St Kilda are offering but help him turn that into successfull businesses and he wold come out better off.

The other thing HR's management will be pondering is how would St Kilda get a deal done? What if Carlton decide they are not happy with getting pick 10 compo for TDK and match their offer so they have to trade for him. What are they going to have to give up for Aleer? Plus what if NAS decides to stay on top of that. Where is the draft capital to get any of this done coming from? To much chaos, too many balls in the air.

We should put an offer of $2 million a year to NAS. He won't take it so we will never have to make good on it. But he can use it to push up his price with St Kilda like they are giving HR negotiating leverage over us.

 

[Boots73]

If Port can’t get a fair deal done with Saints and if Nas wants to go back home.
Would Adelaide take pick 2 off us ?
We get Curtain
Adelaide get NWM
Saints get pick 2
Probably a few more picks thrown in to get the deal done

 

[RanaNaved]

It’s annoying how much quiet Oscar Allen has been for the past month.

I'm sure it's a very awkward time for him and the club

 

[thebigshowperth]

I'm sure it's a very awkward time for him and the club

Still he should be completing some media he still is the captain of the club.

 

[The Gtrain]

is devon robertson worth a try? he's still a good player, just cant become a regular player at brisbane

We tried twice and he knocked us back, I wouldn't be begging for his services

 

[Happy Mastenator]

So what would St Kilda offer in a trade for Ried, with NAS and without NAS, and if this was true wouldn't we be talking to Richmond and Essendon to at least leverage trade numbers ?

It does sound like a Conner Sports rumour to get the Eagles to $24m.

Reid is not going to St Kilda in front of half filled stadiums

If he leaves us he'll be agitating for a big Melbourne club. Any shortfall in cash against a St Kilda offer he'd more than make up if playing for Pies/Bombers/Carlton/Hawthorn/Geelong in sponsorship.

 

[Spange]

If he’s not the target (Dursma) then we still hold the cards and need to ring every ounce of leverage we have out of the bombers. North may want him to be paired with his brother too. Who holds the 2 Dursmas holds the cards to get the 3rd

Ruthless aggression.

North have nothing to offer us for pick 1 or pick 2.

Interesting question......what if we got Marshall, Windy and Wilkie for Reid (with some pics swapped)

Wilkie is from SA, so it's not like leaving Vic is an issue....offer him a good 4 year deal.

Marshall is 30, but still a huge improvement over Flynn and gives as 4 years to draft and develop a ruckman

Windy wants to play fulltime not as a tagger.....I'm sure he would be a great improvement into our mids.

Keep picks 1 and 2, draft Durrsma and CDT (to get Marshall to take under his wing)

Not a bad draft period when you can loose 1/2 best 22 and gain 4???

Good write up on some young VFL prospects.

 

[Donkers]

If they want 1 I am not doing that deal.

1 and our 2nd for 5 6.

The difference between Hawks first and our second might only be one spot but could be 7 spots if they are knocked out week one of finals.

Leaves us with 2 5 6 Hawks 1st.

Ess duusma
WC Lindsay
Rich CDT
Rich shubert
WC cumming
WC sharp

Hawks 1 farrow

Richmond took 5 talls last year. 5 in the top 30. They are not picking another one this year.

 

[Obeanie1]

So why has Harley Reid no signed on yet? His definitely going but what will we get for him?

Rookie account.......

 

[Wooshaaaa]

North have nothing to offer us for pick 1 or pick 2.

I would take FOS for pick 2.

If bombers want 1 for duursma, north might want CDT.

They might actually recognise there list management is unbalanced with all the mids and minimal decent talls.

 

[Wooshaaaa]

Richmond took 5 talls last year. 5 in the top 30. They are not picking another one this year.

Maybe marsh then? Not exactly a tall forward at 191. I just think they're not taking mids with the 2 picks they have, unless they can get Lindsay.

 

[Obeanie1]

Ok

So we trade pick one for 5 6 and you say that's the equivalent of say 9 10.

But then the bombers actually bid on who they believe is the best player at that pick. There are some who have all three NGAs ahead of duursma

So the bombers big on all three and then take duusma at pick 4.

So then our trade becomes pick 4 for 9 and 10.

You can't argue the goose and not the gander.

Geez you've confused me and everyone with that scenario.

What has that got to do with different drafts with different levels of being compromised.

Pick 5 in an uncompromised draft gets you a crack at a top 5 player.

A heavily compromised draft pick 5 could get you access to the 12th ranked player.

So if you trade pick 1 in a compromised draft you want a better offer than in a not so compromised draft.

Good write up on some young VFL prospects.

So the question for the draft watchers of classes 2020-2024, which is where most of these would've been considered but not taken.....

Who in here did you have as a potential draftee and what was there knock that there now VFL form seems to have addressed?

I am all for taking a mature body who has blossomed with a later pick rather than an 18yo in a shallow draft. We might just find the next Tmac.

No you're just confused.

Think closely
