2025 Draft Order

Current Draft Picks:
Round 1: 1, 2, 13
Round 2: 34, 41
Round 3: 53, 58 (These picks are in excess of available list spots so will be forfeited if we don’t consolidate our 2025 picks up the order or trade some for future picks)

List Spots Available (39 of 48):
• Main list (33 of 38) - 5* (in: Starcevich, Young out: Allen, Ryan, Chesser, Hunt, Petruccelle, Jamieson)
• Cat A rookie list (5 of 8) - 3* (in: Robertson (pending), out: Rawlinson)
• Cat B rookie list (1 of 2) - 2 (out: Livingstone)

* Based on Dewar being upgraded after the maximum 3 years on the rookie list. Hutchinson may also have been upgraded but this isn’t confirmed - if it is we will have 4 main and 4 rookie list spots open

* Matthew Clarke has stated we have 5 main list spots

Matt Clarke wraps up the trade period - 6PR

The only mutually beneficial trade I can possibly see would be something like

Eagles trade: 16 + 23 + 37
Brisbane Trade: Starcevich + 19
Freo Trade: 12 + 33

Eagles get: Starcevich + 12
Brisbane get: 16 + 33 + 37
Freo get: 19 + 23

Eagles trade 22 for Starce and 12 for 16 + 37, Freo get a more suitable pick for rivers, Bris get points a slight pick upgrade.
I haven't read to see what the details are, but this looks like the first close guess to me.
 
My guess is this signals either we think we retain enough capital to trade up to at least Carlton’s pick if not GC, while upgrading 16 to 12, OR a definite trade down of 1 to 5+6 with other picks thrown around with the bombers.

Not sure I want Grlj if we have Duursma. Both have great outside games but I really think we need to target balanced and inside mids. Someone needs to get clean ball out to them. I would prioritise Cumming and Sharp ahead of them.

If we keep 17, I would be OK with Dalton. His wrist injury stuffed up his draft year but he came home strong.

I do like Dovaston. Watching him at Shark Park in the carnival and early he tore our backline a new one. Yes we have some NGA small forwards on our list and coming on our list but he is more the Watson/Weightman angry small forward.
As much as I like Doverston I feel like
we need to allocate our resources for mids and elite talent like duursma.

Fix the midfield first

We also need to back our NGA talent and brockman to step up and take those roles .

Brockman long newton
then NGAs champion, walley

Owies can get in the bin

Twilliams and Kevens more those HFF roles than crumbing forwards but still free hits

There is this kid playing for SA this year Zane Peucker who looks really good as a late pick but I feel he goes around where we get bids for our NGAs

 
So much so that we are willing to overpay for any experienced player who will come. All the other clubs know this and use it against us.
I’m glad we use this logic to go get players that fit this “criteria” like Matt Owies - then we win 1 game for the season anyways😍

How many from team dry sheets have finally converted to us wet sheeters now? Writing was on the wall that Clarke was gonna bend over.

There's been a little trickle. I am nervous.

Reckon this is the best crack at it
 
I've said this before, but Clark would have to get approval from Pyke etc. for any trades he does, right?
