Recommitted Zak Jones [re-signed]

[LukeParkerno1]

Mitchell clearly went for enders

Jones worth something 10-16 for mine

Anywhere in the 10-18 range I'd be comfortable with. 10 being the top end. Would take a pick in the middle if he wishes to leave.

Fair enough. I can see why other team are willing to pay a pick from 10-15 but if my club were after him I wouldn't Be offering that. Good player, I just don't value him as high as others

Zac Jones 1st rounder? lol Yeah ok.

You'll get more value out of Jones for a 1st rounder than you did with Lovett.

[RUNVS]

Considering we took Jones for something like pick 15, I think a top 10 pick is reasonable.

 

[CrazyJoeFevola]

If there's a bidding war between Melbourne clubs 10-15 or equivalent value, if he's got his heart set on one club, probably closer to 20 or similar value

 

[HellasOle]

Don't want him at the Cattery
Need a Jacob hopper type player who is also out if cotnract

 

[schmuttt]

From a Dees perspective I don't think he adds much.

Pass.

Agree, we have enough average kicks as it is.

 

[aussierulesrules]

He averages a turnover for every 4 disposals and is only averaging 21 disposals in his 4th year, so I don't see how that equates to a top 10 pick, or anything particularly close to it. If he was more proven in the midfield then maybe.

GWS only got pick 30 or so for Jack Steele two years after he was drafted and he was bid on with pick 15, the same number Zac was drafted at the year before.

 

[Snake_Baker]

Pick 22ish?

Last Sydney player the Saints tracked closely turned out all right (Tim Membrey)

You don't have any collateral. Don't even mention Motlop.

They can trade next year's first rounder, plus this year's 2nd and so-on.

Not sure you can use a future two years in a row?

The rules as originally announced:
- Clubs must make at least two first-round selections in each four-year period. If they don't, they will face restrictions from trading any further first-round draft picks.

- If a club trades a future first-round selection, it may not trade any other future selection from that same draft. But if a club keeps its future first-round selection, it can trade any of its future selections from other rounds.

Geelong presently don't have one in 2017 (gone to Carlton as part of the Tuohy trade), didn't in 2016 (also Carlton for Henderson) or 2015 (to Adelaide for Dangerfield). Their last one was in 2014 (Nakia Cockatoo). IF the AFL stick to their original concept, Geelong can't trade next year's first round pick without picking up a first rounder this year.

 

[aussierulesrules]

The AFL came out and clarified this a couple of weeks ago and said that stuff doesn't start until 2019 and that all clubs are eligible to trade their 2018 first at the end of this year.

Reckon we will trade our two second rounders for Adelaide first rounder as they need points to secure Jackson Edwards

He's a massive St. Kilda fan too (before his brother played for Melbourne)

Be interested to see if he can shake his flat track bully tag, tonight will be a good test

 

[Pykie]

Getting more expensive by the week for the Swans.

I reckon we will be going pretty hard, he's got the pace around the contest we need.

Also getting more expensive for you guys.

 

[aussierulesrules]

If he keeps that up he'll be worth a pick closer to 10.

Wouldn't mind adding him and Fyfe/Dusty.

 

[BarneyBent]

Ball butcher. Would be a terrible acquisition. Clubs should focus on people who can actually kick.
