Jesse Hogan(mini-draft)- priority for us

[blue shark]

I thought it was only the Richmond Brain Trust.

This made me laugh out loud, no wonder they dont have any Buddies.

I wouldn't be against trading morabito. He is uncommitted and not a very smart footballer. Morabito for mini draft pick one would be a great deal for us

Because of his injuries and the "unknown" factor of how he will recover, if that deal was on the table I would take it. But those injuries are exactly why that deal would not happen from a GWS point of view.

 

[free at last]

I'm totally for having a crack at getting hogan but offering some one like mora to get the deal done is just not going to happen.

I can't wait for the day to see our midfield setting up for a stoppage and looking down and seeing fyfe,mundy,Barlow,sandi/griffo/Clarke,then from no where arrives mora,receives a release handball,bursts out into the clear and bounces 3-4 times and then mora slots a goal from 50m.

Is his(mora) knee reco really that "unknown"?

Seems these days players have a very high probability of having a successful Footy career,post op.

Martin's going to the Gold Coast for pick 2.

Bunch of ****ing campaigners

 

[Cameron_K]

Freo have no chance of Hogan now. Bulldogs will be in play for Hogan and can offer a lot more than us.

Bunch of ******* sillys

F**ks sake, not again.

So much for the mini-draft helping GWS get mature bodies while giving the established clubs a crack at some youngsters for a change. Nice work AFL.

 

[Lach72]

Bunch of campaigners. They've bent us all over by not insisting and also by not allowing compo picks to used for father son so the tanking scum get to use pick 26 on Viney

But wouldn't Melbourne still have to use their normal 1st rounder if GWS/GC bid?

Gold Coast didn't bid. Viney is a Demon at pick #26.

All in all, maybe it's not so bad. If the Bulldogs get Hogan with pick #5 or 6, perhaps it will allow one of the other KPF to slip to our first round pick.

 

[leeloo]

I am so over Melbourne, GWS and Gold Coast Can only hope that they all hate playing for those teams and want to go elsewhere.

Emma Quayle tweeting that Melbourne will use pick three to pick up Hogan. Allegedly.

 

[Ktrain]

Gold Coast didn't bid. Viney is a Demon at pick #26...

Fine, but why didn't any other club bid 1st round for a so called top 10 pick?

Edit. I see pick 7 was bid, but AFL have let them not use their compensation pick 13, rather next selection 26. Hmmm

So that means he should be traded to Freo in 2014 draft period

Don't see why F/S bidding is done before trading of picks is finished...Could Melbourne now trade away pick 26 for say Dawes, and then just say okay we'll now have to take Viney with our new next available pick being the third rounder? Or assumedly pick 26 is officially locked in?

 

[Taylor]

If GWS do end up with lots of first round picks again, perhaps we can look to trade our 2nd rounder plus a player for their second rounder. It's almost another first.

They have to use pick 26 on Viney. It's locked away.

Those picks are locked in now. Untouchable.

Good luck in your career, Jesse Hogan. You'll need it.

That about the only positive I can get from this. Not sure who the 2nd-3rd best KPF is that could fall to us if we maintain pick 16.

Maybe the go now is to either upgrade our 16pick to increase our chances or trade a player\s or work towards getting another high first\second pick.

Been mentioned myabe trade for a compo pick by trading players to GWS.

That or try to trade it for an unactivated compo pick, to use on Jaeger (or other) in yrs to come.

 

[jedi mind tricks]

I still think a KPF such as Shaw could be available for Freo at pick 16. Most of the top 20 picks are mids in an uncompromised draft.
