Strategy Draft assistance 2023 [Twomey: NMFC get #19 in 2023, x2 end of 1st rd picks in 2024, and x2 extra rookie list spots in 2024; no Sanders/#11]

Hoping we get to deploy its most popular formula to those unhappy at what we get

All we have is hope

The AFL has granted North Melbourne future draft concessions that must be traded for listed players as part of a special assistance package approved on Monday.

In the announcement Chief Executive Gillon Mac announced that the AFL hadn’t had quite enough fun yet in fisting the kangaroos, and shared that Harry Sheezel and George Wardlaw would be able to be ontraded only to Port Adelaide or Essendon in deals that benefit the clubs the AFL actually gives a flying **** about.

No further statement will be made, if you don’t like it should have gone to the Gold Coast or Tassie.

Hope no one was just listening to Sammy Edmond on SEN. You would be smashing your head against the wall if you were. They are still referring to the McKay compo as part of the assistance package.

I liked Dwayne's comment that us getting too much isn't fair to the team who busted their arse & finished 4th last. Classic...

 

[chubbspeterson]

So there should be if they're just going to cop it in the a**.

What can they do though really? Put out a statement or make noise in the media? That's about it. They can't appeal it.
Like it or not it's the commission's decision whatever happens. If it's a rubbish package we channel it into * everybody else mentality.

Obviously satire. The AFL would never mix up a comma with a full stop.

 

[LB2Snake]

Because they are ******* morons.

And the media has zero integrity....they are just supporters of a particular club with microphone.

 

[speedy]

AFL media statement:
North Melbourne to receive unprecedented priority picks 2 & 3 of the 2023 national draft, but must be on traded for fringe players or they will be forfeited.

 

[LETSGOKANGAS]

Need someone to kick me in the face before club statement

 

[Makeshift Park]

Anything less than pick 11 this year and pick 11 next year and this gif gets a run.

Reject it, in all honesty if it's end of R1 just reject it

I bet this the Gil and the AFL commission right now speaking to Sonja and Jen when we asked for 3 and Sanders.

Talking about how all get it wrong re pick 3 ( if we get it ) being " assistance " and the AFL Racism " inquiry " which screwed us over- losing our coach, affecting recruiting

Definitely scraping the bottom of the "why North shouldn't get decent assistance" barrel when you're resorting to the unfair disadvantage to the teams 1 and 2 places ahead of us on the ladder!

-Hawthorn, 4 flags including a 3-peat in the last decade, with a team in a large part built by the priority picks they received...
-GC, Hahaha, more assistance than Karl Malone received from John Stockton in Salt Lake City in the 1990s!

That bloke was outstanding, breaking it all down to what each pick is/ potentially could be, and why.

Dick Brain gave him all the time he required to explain it all calmly and logically then when asked for his opinion on what we may or may not receive (and if compensation should be included given the AFL’s botched character assassination of Clarko) couldn’t be swayed from the Kornesque “but pick 4 would be too much” crap.

Great call, well reasoned, well explained

The f**king Pipe basically just glossed over it. Turnip. F***wit. Gronk

Anyone got audio of it…would love to pass it on to my stupid bluws mate who thinks pick 3 re Mackay compo shouldn’t be a part of our assistance…

Does the Hawthorn "punishment" also drop today?
