The only issue is we arent using more than 2 picks imo so if we end up with 7 25 and 33 33 is dead to us. So i reckon we only trade sav if theres a pre agreement with coll eg 25 and 33 for henry and 41-7 and 41 as our 2 picks.
Or we only take 33 if theres a club that will buy it off us for a future r2/3 which would be better to give us a future pick.

I’d do that to put the ball back in their court. If they don’t agree we’ll offer 7, 25 for 5 and then offer them 33 for Henry!!

He's been touted as the next Joel Selwood... 2 or 3 is a bargain. Should be Numero Uno

Deep breath. Every year is the next "XXXX". The kid Cadman is the next Cameron


IMO... they miss on the tall but they have a few good mids they can choose from. Speaking from my keyboard ignorance I cant see him jumping a few of those earlier names.




What today does ... is it might allow an in draft trade with WC... if they want to get to 7 ...
 
we are Mother Hubbard in 2023 but yes the ins are good
People said that after previous trades and get too hung up on the "here and now". What picks you have in future can change very quickly from one year to the next. We've also got retirements looming which frees up cap space, and then there's free agency, players and pick swaps etc. Take this year for example ...... if we were discussing this 6 months ago we would not have expected Jack Bowes (for top 10 pick) to join the Cats and bring Pick 7 with him.

Geelong have made an artform of not getting hung up on going to a draft fully loaded with picks they have no intention of using. Keep your powder dry and keep an open mind to possibilities that emerge.

If you look at my earlier posts I said as much.... The last three year have seen cap dump trades if we have cap room we could easily pick up another player

... still there is no denying atm ... not much in the draft next year atm.

How much hardball we play depends on whether henry is prepared to go the draft and wont sign with pies for 1 yr. If he wont go back there we prob wont offer more than 25 and make the pies blink. If he wont risk the draft we might add a bit more to get it done (but id rather we didnt).
 
33 from Port for Sav looks like the deal now

No use taking that if Collingwood wont take it FWIW... Or is that for a F2 P33?? If so that takes care of the GCS.

No port cant trade their fr2 (locked as fr1 gone) so it would be 33 this year.
We would only take that from them i think (as we using minimal picks this year) if pies agree to take 25 and 33 for henry and a later pick..otherwise we might just keep sav.

That seems a bit we would have given up for Henry

Very, very, very long odds they take Clark with one of those early picks.

I'd think Tsatas would be a safe bet for them, then they take their pick of Wardlaw or Sheezel (assuming GWS take Cadman prior).
After Ashcroft & Cadman...
Those mids ranked by Deore, Twomey etc etc... are all the same Tsatas/Clark/Wardlaw/MacKenzie/Phillipou/Hewitt/Humphrey.
Throw a blanket over them. Tsatas can go 2 or 3 or slip to 6 TBH.
Humphrey could go 3 based on his upside even Wardlaw could and probably should slip to 7-10 mark with his inability to get over a succession of hamstring strains.

WC want Buss?? Hewitt?? Do they think we want Buss, might trick them to pony up something ?
Yeah not sure.
FWIW i think Cadman is a beauty for a big forward that has a few strings to his bow.
 
24 + 33 for Ollie Henry seems like a lot to give away for a player we don't really need. I'd rather swap them for a future late first for 2023 or two early 2nd rounds for 2023. At least we'd have something to take to next years draft to trade for a key position player.
We do need him, he is a ready replacement for 32yo Rohan

That is exactly the scenario.

I think we've reached the limit of our assistance ....... and patience with Collingwood. Those picks to them and we get something back, but I'm not even convinced we need / or want something back. Not like I think we'll use it.

People in here just need to accept that if it gets the Henry deal done then it doesn't really matter. Geelong would have let Sav go for a wink and a nudge anyway.

Yes u have a point.. But they might be better at handling a Victorian kid without that mantle of Numero Uno.
I just have doubts on Norths ability to create a winning culture. Even getting Clarkson I had Norths ceiling of success at MAYBE a PF if they were lucky. Its a poorly run club, shit facilities, small crowds, constantly sent to places like Tassie to play, and if you are talented after a few years you will get the option to go to a bigger club if you want.

Can't wait to see what careers North torch with picks 2 and 3.

Gibney might be as good or better than both.

If we miss on Clark. Moving back a couple of spots is one option if we get a pick back next year type deal.

Lots to lay out here... but I will be happier one we get our trades finialised

This is entirely fictional until any trade goes through but if
Sav = 33
And henry = 25 +33 with pies sending back 41 or a similar pick
That 40s pick cancels out the 38 we traded to brisbane
So it would have basically worked out at henry for our future 2nd (mid 30s) + sav + 48 +55 + f4.
Given the f4 will be in the 70s next year and we were never using 55 anyway its basically sav 48 and a future 30s pick for a guy who was drafted at 17 2 years ago.
Not an absolute steal but not a bad trade. About ok (i still wonder why we really traded so hard for 25 though but thats a separate issue).
