For the draft gurus…..
Do we have to participate in the National draft ?
Or
Can we just choose to participate with delisted free agents…?

We don't have to participate, but it would mean we'd have to upgrade three rookies and instead take three picks in the rookie draft.
I don't think so, at least not in recent years. GC only took one pick in 2020, but they'd already prelisted two players through their NT priority access.Ahh ok. Do you know if a teams done it before in the past..?

I think we'll have two or three picks based on the way things are tracking.
Yeah, could be. The risk of taking too many kids late in the national draft is that you have to give each one a two year contract. We may look at a delisted free agent for a year instead if we feel there's nothing in the backend of the draft, or alternatively upgrade more rookies and take a couple of shots on speculative kids in the rookie draft, as they'll only be on one year deals.Only reason I ask is the fact they are such low pics that wouldn’t it be best to go a delisted player as a rookie instead of a unknown kid in a shallow draft
Or the kid with knowledge in the fact that it’s gonna be tough to break into our now strong side.
All hypothetical of cause.

Who is the indigenous kid that has been training with the Riolis that Richmond and Essendon are after - required to use a top thirty pick to secure him ?Only reason I ask is the fact they are such low picks we will eventually hold that wouldn’t it be best to stock up on delisted player/s as a rookies instead of a unknown kid in a shallow draft

You're allowed to have up to 2 picks above available list spots to take into the draft for the possibility of trading up to and during the draft. If you can't/don't trade then you lose those picks if you don't have available spots to use.Could be mistaken but didn’t think we would have that manny list spots to use draft picks if we get Taranto and Hopper
Sheds, Caddy Lambert frees up 3, Soldo frees one so 4 free spots
Taranto and Hopper take up 2
Pickett needs to be elevated off the rookie list so takes one
Stack needs to be elevated if he stays putting us at 0 main list spots
Martyn and RCD could free up two more but we don’t know if they are staying or going yet
Chances are probably one or two at max in the National season draft and a few rookie picks
Could see some moves depending on if the club still wants to keep RCD by putting him onto the rookie list and giving stack his spot on the main list or just using it to free up a spot on the main list.
Not sure to be honest. I heard someone on the radio mention it.What stats are those exactly? I thought Rioli had the most points off turnover despite playing significantly less games. His and Rohans goals per game are fairly similar and Maurice averages more tackles
Henry played 15 games (two as unused sub, so really 13) this year, for 21 goals. 25 games (28 goals) in his first two seasons. Been a teenager every time he's got on an AFL field. Can play.Can the 189cm pseudo tall who couldn’t crack a game at Collingwood add much at Geesook? I hope not

They are rebuilding for future years, not just next year. Shovekins turns 35 next year, Rohan 32, Stagerfield 33, Duncan 32, Guthrie 31, Smith 35, Stanley 33, Gutless Dog 30, Cameron 30, Bitcharse 32, Tuohy 34, Ceglar 32, Menegola 31. They can't replace them all with 18-year-olds.I can't see what the big deal is about Geelong's off season. They will have picked up 3 players that were not top 18 at their old clubs and a #7 pick that may or may not be any good. If Bowes deal is spread out over 4 years you would still be spending $500k per year and a list spot on a 2nds player. Plus Bruhn and Henry will be payed much more than rookie wages. I can't see these guys getting a game in a premiership team. It's baffling.
Dunno. I was just pointing out he could and did get a game at Collingwood. In time Shovekins' spot maybe.Who's spot is he taking?

You think or we 100% should? Which one is it?I think we 100% should take 2 selections with later picks to fill list needs
1x Ruckman
1 x KPF
Hawks in 2016 took Mitchell Lewis with pick #76 and everybody laughed as that was the year they sent mitchell to Eagles and lewis to melbourne and the name combined was the same as the 2 guns they allowed to leave
Must draft Shane Lambert or Josh ParkerI think we 100% should take 2 selections with later picks to fill list needs

They better have thrown in car mats.Essentially it’s done.
If Hopper was a car sale you could say the purchase has been made, now they’re just detailing it before delivery and assessing our trade-in.
