I’m a Tigers fan. So no comment on your hawk questions.

Yep, I see now I was looking at location

 

[sregit]

We could let them know we are discussing a pick trade with you guy's. Reckon they will be spooked and do the F1st trade.

Their target is clearly Robey

Cleary Robey? Last week it was CDT. I have no idea who they want and I doubt you know either. They will not do pick 5 or 6 + an F1. You could persuade their F1 alone. Is this what you want ? There is not a hope in hell you get both. Pick 1 would not get you both.

 

[Aarick13]

Trade 13 and 34 to Carlton for pick 9 then trade pick 9 and WCE 2026 2nd or Saints 2026 2nd to Essendon for pick 5 (or pick 6 if they won't take Sharp). Take Duursma, CDT and Sharp and everyone can look back on this thread and think about how much time they have wasted arguing about taking CDT or Sharp.

 

[RanaNaved]

It's amazing that hypothetical splits and slides are still being discussed. Club has been settled on Duursma and CDT for a while, lock it in

 

[sregit]

Cochrane is rated but not to the level of Harley. He might not be available in the open draft anyway.
Who are those other players you speak of, would you care to name them and stack them alongside this year's top 6?

Just look up 2026 draft prospects. Plenty of info available. It’s known Cochrane, Barker, Walker would be 1,2 and 3 in this draft. This draft is considered shit. Even Richmond has made it known they’d like to trade out but can’t at this stage find buyers.

Anyway, I have imposed on your board long enough. Good luck in the draft. Hope to see WC rise up. 5/6 years down is long enough.

Seriously? Are you trying to ruin our entertainment?

Next years draft is always the better draft. Everybody knows that.
Weren’t people slobbering over Sharp last year?

Known by whom? Where can I find an AFL recruiter/list manager saying those guy's would go 1, 2 and 3 this year?

 

[kokedoodledoo]

Next years draft may be slightly better but a lot of the wants to trade out this year into next is the upcoming bid matching changes. First rounders will be worth even more next year, and it seems a lot of clubs have NGA or FS next year.

Nice little article on Williams and Evans, and ex Eagles player/recruiter who's now their teacher

How delicious would one of these taste on a hot November evening?

They're delicious all the time.

Fred Rodriguez was a top 3 prospect according to this board this time last year

Didn't he then back up his form this year?

Which two picks would your prefer?

Keep reading and the rest of the post might give you some clues on that.

I cannot show you in righting but I can tell you that at Richmond’s draft strategy to coterie members it was declared that next years draft was considered way better than this years and provided they could get suitable trade(s), would move picks. At the same time they emphasised that there were a number of draftees next year that they believed to be of higher quality at the top end than this year.

You can believe what you want. But even Cal Twomey has stated this is considered a poor draft year.

Thanks for keeping things civil.

Is there an audiobook version?

 

[sharps24]

This is how we end up in mid table for the foreseeable. You need the best of the the best.

Boy, can't build a successful side around pick 5 or 6 or 9 anymore, footy is getting tough. Try put them all together in one side and do it 2 years in a row and you're aspiring for "mid table". Fold the club.

 

[sharps24]

Champaign comedy. Dane Cook would be thoroughly impressed.

Not according to some!.ok ok no more

I assume you’re referring to Arki Butler?

 

[daddy_4_eyes]

Missed a day or two and the thread ballooned 20 pages, is there anything worth reading in there or just more of the same?

We don't want CDT.
Sharp is a must.
Trade 2+13 for 5+6.

And round and round the same conversations go.

Such a shocking draft cohort that Richmond trying to ditch picks 3 & 4 for future unknown picks.
Meanwhile posters on here losing their minds that we didn't make a 6th main list spot available and might lose out on one of Williams or not-top-50 rated Banfield/Evans if a bid comes.
