So what numbers are available? Surely he picks number 1?

After free agency period (with all the compensation picks pushing everyone down), we held Pick 14, Pick 40 and Pick 53.Given that we traded down for points, you could probably say we got him for more than a 20% discount compared to our original draft hand, though I've not done the calcs.
Eg. Our original 1st, 2nd and 3rd are only worth about 2000 points in total and pick 1 was worth 3000 points pre-discount.
We didn't even have our second to start the trade period, it was swapped for Adelaide's 3rd. Depending how you "value" the picks pre or post bidding, it's something like 1500-1700 points we paid for JUH. We don't have next year's 2nd or 3rd, if you consider that the price for Treloar and Hannan.Given that we traded down for points, you could probably say we got him for more than a 20% discount compared to our original draft hand, though I've not done the calcs.

Too difficult to work out exactly, with pre draft trades and other bids on the night, but in short, every time Sam traded for points he increased our effective discount.
Shocking system open to abuse. Thank God they're getting rid of it next year...

I'll believe you. Works for me!After free agency period (with all the compensation picks pushing everyone down), we held Pick 14, Pick 40 and Pick 53.
After picking up Hannan, Martin and Treloar, plus giving up our 2021 2nd + 3rd, we walked in with Pick 29 + Pick 33 + Pick 41 + Pick 42 + Pick 52 + Pick 54
Based on this year's ladder, the future picks would have been worth roughly Pick 29 + Pick 47 (969 points).
So by giving up Pick 14 + Pick 40 + Pick 53 + future picks (total value 2,792) we brought in Hannan, Martin, Treloar and JUH.
It's difficult to nail down the true discount we got since we turned some of our picks into Treloar, but you could look at it like JUH cost us 2,400 points, which means getting in Hannan and Treloar cost us 392 points, or the equivalent of Pick 42 (a 3rd rounder).
They had one this year, he just didn't nominate the CrowsSooner or later Crows will have a father/son or academy player they want, it pays to create goodwill in this business, not go out of your way to screw another team over.
So what impact did crows bidding at 1 have on us rather than say pick 3. Do they get any benefit out if it?
If my calculations are right, if JUH had been nominated at 2 or 3 our next pick would have been 48.
Rowe was taken at 38.
Yes it's possible that we could have traded up to get him but it sounds like BS justification to me.
How would Adelaide have known who we would take anyway.

Doesn’t seem like the club is worried about putting any pressure on the kid. Would he silly not to do it from a marketing point of view. Honestly can’t remember the last draftee who had this much hype coming in.Only one team gets to do pick 1 marketing like this this year and it's not Adelaide.View attachment 1026960
That guy needs to put his crack pipe down and go get some sleep

With Dunks in the doghouse Bont has a new BFF.
Haircut also looks sharp.
have you seen this?
That's the thing, to trade in Treloar on 600K and get back the 400 odd points for Marra was as the the great Ritchie would say, that was sooo brilliant.This is spot on. The Adelaide recruiter does not like Sam - thought he could put one over him in the Keath trade because he was new and thought he had us over a barrel with pick 14 as well - Sam told him to get stuffed and used pick 14 in th e trade for Trealor and ended up with about 400 extra points back.
