Our second round pick

[morgoth]

Any ideas re what we plan to do with this?

Seems like we will still have it post the trades for Adams, White and Karnesis.

Henderson is someone we have been linked to but Crows are not overly keen and were only prepared to do it if it secured Polek from Brisbane.

Do we just keep it and get another kid into the system?

 

[Two Eyes]

I thought we were swapping it with pick 35 as part of the Adams trade?

That was the early story but apparently its a swap of third round picks.

 

[Jelly Bean]

We haven't still got it post the trades for Adams or White... Those trades aren't done yet. There is a chance our second pick will be used in either of these.

Adams: GWS take our pick 27 and Shaw, and give us back Adams and their next pick (30ish).

Or White: they take our second round pick for White (and Armstrong).

Or Henderson: If we can keep it through the above two trades, we would probably use it for Henderson.

 

[morgoth]

Yeah but if th Crows do not land Polec it will probably not happen (they seem to be trying to use Vince to get the pick they need).

So if its not Henderson, where to? Just feel like there is a trade we do not know about. Or that could just be my love of the suspence of it all.

What I think will happen is that it will be shaw and our second round pick to gws.
Then gws give us adams plus their third round pick.
Gws then on trade second round pick for Jessie White to Sydney and we get White.
Or the pies may ask for bugg and gws get our second round pick for bugg.
Then we ontrade our third round pick for White. or Karnesis....White would be our priority out of the two.
Only speculating who knows what Collingwood will do,but this is possible outcome.

wow- had trouble following that.
And I've missed something but when did Bugg come into calculations?

 

[doodles98]

How about we trade FOR draft picks, or to upgrade our draft picks and pick up a new crop of youngsters. I don't see the point in trading for the average players that are being mentioned on this board... unless we could get pick 1 or somebody a bit exceptional then we might as well stick with what we've got and draft in new talent. Players I would consider trading include: Shaw, O'Brien, (1st rounder) McCaffer, Goldsack, Blair, Sinclair, Dwyer, Martin, (2nd-3rd rounder) Paine, Clarke, Lynch, (3rd-4th rounder).

 

[Axe]

If that were the plan I would say that we would wait for next year to do it when the draft runs much deeper than it does this year.

It was mentioned in the media last week that we've asked about Tomas Bugg.

If we can somehow get Adams and Bugg for shaw and 27 that would be nuts.

Nuts being the operative word. Pretty much not going to happen.

 

[SpongePie]

Would Bugg be best 22 next year?

 

[Vinnie Vegas]

Would Bugg be best 22 next year?

If the best 22 shapes up as including Seedsman, Marley and Sinclair, I'd say that Bugg would push ahead of at least one or two of those guys.

 

[Frankie23]

The club has already come out and said they don't rate this draft, no point investing heavily in it if that's the case. Take Picks 10,11 and upgrade Dwyer and/or Mooney (he signed a 2 year extension I'm pretty sure...?)

I'm very keen on Ricky Henderson, his best footy is seriously good, it's a matter of getting him right and finding him a settled position

 

[Lockyer24]

Better not be trading it in the Shawry deal. Shaw is in prime age and a better player. Swap of 3rd Rounders, please.

 

[ccd23]

If we are able to keep 27 after the Adams deal that would be a great result.

Id like for one of the following to happen;

Trade it for Henderson

or

Use it in the Draft to pick up either Luke Reynonlds or Garlett. They should both be there around pick 27. Reynolds is going to be quality. A smooth moving forward who can be our third tall option with a poweful left foot kick, good skills and good goal sense.

 

[MyManLynch]

Keep 27 & draft Garlett.

 

[Obese Arachnid]

Trade 27 for Docherty, just to really piss off the Blewboys.

 

[The Royal Sampler]

Trade 27 for Docherty, just to really piss off the Blewboys.

But that's Carltank thinking. They are irrelevant.

 

[Obese Arachnid]

The off season is boring, I thought some nice salty BlewBoy tears would help sustain me until we can flog them next year.

 

[MarkT2]

The club has already come out and said they don't rate this draft,

Have they actually said this? I've seen it referred to on here quite often but I have not seen anything from any club to that effect.

 

[THATSGOLD]

Would Bugg be best 22 next year?

Yes our defense is now a rabble without Shaw. Toovey will struggle early. Seedsman and Marley are too light to defend one on one.

What do you like about Collingwood?
