News Scully Compo

🥰 Love BigFooty? Join now for free.

So it seems we would need to part with more than our 2 x compo picks to get O'meara. Thats a pretty steep price, and we'd be putting 3 eggs into 1 basket..

Any ideas what Crouch would cost us?

My opinion/intake of the situation would lead me to believe anywhere from 1 good first rounder 10ish and something thrown in, upto 2 first rounders.

Maybe minus some hype from this scenario, and the O'Meara one to get an actual valuation?

Sadly true :p

Why do we have 18? Assuming we finish 10th in 2012 we should have Pick 11 as our first rounder, which means the compo would be Pick 12.

Dont think pick 18 comes into it mate - its going to be pick 10 - 12 approx (depending on where we finish).

other clubs will use there compo picks next year as well and if i recall correctly there are a few mid rounders and 'after first pick' compos going around. priority picks back next year as well i think.

anyway, doubt we would be so stupid as to trade 3 first rounders for a 17 year old. not even Judd was worth that much.

not sure the club would be so reckless.

EDIT: the 'ishs' on the end of those picks i put up mean 'ish'. i didnt just put them on the end for fun.

Picks 12 and 2x $cully compo with Warnock for mini-draft pick 1 and Saad???

We can dream... I would take that any day.

Two compo picks and our first rounder? Get f***ed.

I can accept parting with the two compo picks and a player (Warnock, Bate, Dunn) but no way in hell do I give them 3 first round picks for a 17 year old kid that can't play until 2013.

My preference would be forget about him, draft three kids next year in the first round of what is supposed to be one of the best drafts in years and reap the rewards of them.

could not agree more.
 
See that as overs, makes Saad quite valued in the scenario....

I do like what we get though, and the more i think about it it seems better and better.

I would be happy with pick 2 and Crouch personally, only using a compo pick and pick 12, keeping one for next year

Will be interested in what happens to Lovett, not saying we take him but would have to be useful to a premiership contending side
 
I would be very happy if we could get Crouch for pick 12 plus a compo pick, then use Warnock or Bate for a second round pick upgrade which nets us Ahmed Saad.

That would leave us with a compo pick and Jack Viney for next year :thumbsu:

Another option could be to package all 3 picks and ask for O'Meara plus Saad.
 
My mate had a Saab once.. It was shit, broke down and cost him thousands of dollars to fix. Eventually took it to the wreckers and got 100bucks for it.
 
Scully=O'Meara (talent wise)

Scully>Two compo picks

And I'm sorry BigSexc but why did your mate pay $10,000 to fix up a car that cost him just over half of that?

Don't know how you came to that conclusion when O'Meara hasn't set foot in the AFL yet and won't for another year.

Having seen Scully at the same age it's pretty easy to make the judgement. Probably should have specified what I was looking at though.

O'Meara's probably tracking as well as, if not better, than what Swallow and Scully were at the same age. Probably not better than Swallow the underage Larke medallist but he has a smaller body.

If you watch enough underage footy the superb players standout. It wasn't hard to see that Cotchin, Trengove, Swallow, etc. would be first rate AFL players. If you watched Zac Smith in the VFL last year it was a no brainer. It's actually not that hard to pick the elite, it's getting the lesser lights right that is the skill.

O'Meara has the skill sets to be better than Scully. Will he ? Who knows, but I'd back my hard earned that he will.

I know your fixated on getting him mate but i just fail to see how we can beat the GC's offer of pick 4 in this years draft, maybe if we offer them our two compo picks they would consider it, but would you trade pick 4 in a draft for picks 10-11? Probably not. GC's offer is going to be hard to beat, the only saving grace we might have is that our picks are flexible and they can use them when they are a much better side, who knows? Maybe its better for us to save the picks and then go after some of GC's youngsters who are gonna be pushed out due to the fact you cant have a list of 40 superstars.

Yeah but they same to make out its not a huge chance, this systems ****ed when GC and GWS get access to all the best kids in AUS, then theres a chance for the other clubs to grab one of 4 17yr olds, and the bloody GC are favourites to get him... I hope people understand how ****ing tough its going to be to win a flag when GWS and GC are up and running... there gonna be better than the Bris PA pairing early in the decade
 
I'm not sure they'll be too keen to deal with the GC..

I was sort of thinking that, but on the other hand are they really gonna cost themselves a better deal just because they are scared GC will also be good at the same time as them?

The two compo picks are better than pick 4.

GWS could have 3 picks in the first round of the "Super Draft" next year whereas the quality of those picks would be as good if not better than pick 4 in this draft.

I don't doubt it.

They already have a multitude of young talent available to them in this draft, the compo picks are an excellent commodity to have.
