Jacob Edwards from North?

Wouldn't have thought so. Despite the initial hype, he was horrendous in the VFL.

Over 34 games and 2.5 years, averaged six disposals, 0.2 goals, seven hitouts and a mark per game. Massive bust

Jacob Edwards from North?

I suspect he’s a dud. That said, a Forward/Ruck is a good shout. Elliot Himmelberg, Lachie Gollant or Tom Fullarton would enthuse me more than someone who couldn’t get a game in a shithouse side.

Agree on the Fwd/Ruck Pos.

Reminds me when Sarah Jessica Parker had a lot of involvement in Chris Nolan's batman begins.

Never heard a stranger made up term than superstar league. The AFL has clearly moved in the complete opposite direction of a superstar league it's about 22 role players and curbing people's natural ability to conform to team needs

Yep. Peak over-thinking having teams like us and Carlton playing anything but attacking football.

There are reports floating around that other clubs think they’d take Curtin if they only had the 1 pick as they are stacked in the midfield and light in defense.

Gives me hope that we could get their pick 3 and still get McKercher - although I doubt we will be get pick 3.

There is always a chance North could give up 3 for our 5 and 13 depends how they rank the top 10, but it would certainly give them a stronger draft hand.

If we really want someone like McKercher then we will have to give up a bit to get him.

Ah well, the commissioners didn't give them P3, but a host of other tradable picks. Which could shoot us in the foot, re trading up.

'They', know how to shuffle the deck, and still compromise the draft in favor of who they want.
..

Do we up the ante`, for North's Pick2... Or up the ante`, for the Suns P4...? hReid, or o'Sullivan.?

Non academy picks >>>
Curtin WA - P1.
hReid Vic - P2.?
McKercher Tas - P3
Duursma Vic - P4
Watson Vic - P5
Sanders Tas - P6

Let's change pace to slightly less polarising topic ..

"We should trade Salem"

My 3rd year of running this topic and it seems his value, therefore trade compensation, gets worse by the end of every year. ie: we should have traded him 3 years ago when I said it originally.

What is the point of keeping this chip kicking lazy w***er? Surely some coach is as dumb as Goody and thinks he's best 22. Come on, make us an offer pleeeeasse.

Where do I sign.

 

[SugarHealey]

Are they allowed to trade the assistance picks?

Yep.

This is how the AFL... are allowing THEM to get around (beat) the draft rules. cutting us out unless we go overboard on overpaying.

 

[SugarHealey]

Surely they can’t trade the picks that are subject to ‘review’?

In 2023, they can.

That's how/why its been designed.

Haha I thought the same. Nope, just BaliDemon coming back from his holiday to stir the pot about Oliver, and good old TK and Nev taking the bait.

Oh, to hear some actual trade news on the trade thread.

So we’re keen on Flynn from GWS but sounds like he’s likely to go to the eagles.

Don’t get the obsession with Lynch, bloke has a cooked foot and will just join our dinosaur tall cooked forward ragtag crew. Hawkins the same.

We should be looking at Kings, JUH, Tilthorpe, Lewis ect

 

[SugarHealey]

An Oliver trade is the quickest way to fix the club. Its fairly simple: weaken a strength (got enough on our list as it stands but if we wanted to add another inside ball winner they are easy to find and inexpensive) and strengthen one or more weaknesses (class/quality ball users, KPF, KPD, draft flexibility, salary cap relief)

Oliver to North for P2, plus P19 & P21_

Melb > P2, P5, P13, P19, P21, P25, P33...

Melb on-trade, for Suns P4.?

Would try squeeze a player from North with that.

Makes sense, we bid on him during his draft year but Giants matched.

 

[Lord Nev]

The Age journalist Marc McGowan has reported that the Hawks are 'forward-thinking' after missing on backmen Ratugolea and McKay this year.

Gold Coast's Ben King, Western Bulldogs pair Jamarra Ugle-Hagan and Aaron Naughton, and Port Adelaide spearhead Todd Marshall are all bound to contracts that expire in 2024, as McGowan surfaced the quartet as potential future options for Hawthorn, led by list manager Mark McKenzie.

King, the brother of burgeoning Saint Max, has continually been linked to a move home to Victoria, though remains in the Suns' grasp for the time being.

The Bulldogs should be desperate to retain Ugle-Hagan and Naughton for the long term, though Naughton, who originates from Western Australia, has been touted for an eventual homecoming after having played junior football for Peel Thunder.

Marshall, meanwhile, a less-speculated goalscoring commodity among this crop, hails from New South Wales but played in the TAC Cup for the Murray Bushrangers prior to his drafting in 2016.

Hawks getting s* done. Or at least trying. Wtf are we doing? Trying to eek out a 2nd rounder for Grundy!

 

[MarcMaverick]

Somebody needs to tell Tim Lamb that siting static is not good. If you're standing still, you're going backwards. Why are we sucking/twiddling our thumbs?

Nothing in the media doesn't necessarily mean nothing is happening. Wouldn't crack it just yet.
