[Bender_]

You're the saddest sod. Don't take your dead bedroom situation out on me mr pedantic

Thread already reached dizzying heights.

 

[Jupes]

am i crazy not to want anyone unless they come very cheap? seems stupid to be shipping blokes off for draft capital only to be used in trading other blokes in. we need as many cracks at the top 20/30 as possible.

 

[Crimson King]

**** Baker and Pickett.

Would rather we end up with FOS & Travaglia somehow.

 

[Obeanie1]

What's Travagalia's expected draft range?

Anywhere from around 8 to 15.

Hawks pick may just miss him

However reading through an article yesterday with each clubs priorities and players ranked only one had Travagalia mentioned as a backup option. Most were chasing a pure mid or tall.

So maybe he does slide to the Hawks 1st.

If Richmond has multiple 1st rounders which it will feel they would look at him as they need everything.

It's a pity we couldn't get him and another quality mid.

 

[maverick001]

This is my understanding too. Battle offer from Hawks hasn’t changed in the last month, which was reported as band 2.

That may be so but I’m convinced AFL will award band 1 anyhow because it’s St Kilda the battlers

 

[Obeanie1]

It's a pity we couldn't get him and another quality mid.

We can.

If we really want to.

 

[Happy Mastenator]

Highly doubt it. Difference is Dees don’t want to sell or have to.

Now with Houston saying he is staying. That rules out the Power imo.

I think the Crows are too far down the Lukosius/ANB and needing a mid path.

If Freo think Chad is coming next year they will stay on that path and don’t want to be on the hook for both $900k for Pickett and did I read $1.2m for Bolton a year.

I think unless Trac changes his mind and stays. Pickett might pick the Eagles if he really wants out of the city. Ryan could help make it happen. We would love him and have a sort of need for his position but Mids and HBF are more pressing imo this off season. Interesting

The Dockers will be hoping that Darcy can stay on the field next year, then the can flip him to Geelong or someone else, to take the contract off the books and help their draft hand for Warner.

 

[shoutsatclouds]

I’m upset Keys didn’t put up the poll I suggested

May as well just put the poll up yerself…

 

[Jumpoff Joey]

Mark Readings on 6PR, I think?

What happened to Cripps?

Is he retiring, i assumed he was good enough and willing enough to go another 12 months.

So much for hoping for a big game from FOS tomorrow

Feel for the kid, incredible frustrating year

I dont know about anyone else but I really hope history repeats itself Pick 3 vibes aka Judd 2.0

 

[amazingjoshy]

The Dockers will be hoping that Darcy can stay on the field next year, then the can flip him to Geelong or someone else, to take the contract off the books and help their draft hand for Warner.

Only issue is I doubt anyones forking out a good pick AND taking on Darcy's contract

 

[Boohemian]

The Dockers will be hoping that he stays off the pies.

 

[Happy Mastenator]

If he's healthy he's a top 5 ruck in the league. Teams will be happy to take him.

 

[Ambrose Burnside]

An alignment isn't going to fly with any club other than Peel because of the hubris of the other clubs.

Maybe we should align with Peel too?

Although our players might all end up in their Reserves side.

 

[greatwhiteshark]

No way in hell is Bolton worth 2 first rounders.
Picket is far better and Melbourne should be stoked with #10 alone

Picket is not in Boltons league.

 

[Miguel Sanchez]

What happened to Cripps?

Is he retiring, i assumed he was good enough and willing enough to go another 12 months.

This is getting a bit circular.

“Where’s the Cripps retiring rumour come from?”

Mark Readings on 6PR.

“What’s the rumour about Cripps?”

That he’s retiring.

“Where’s that come from?”

 

[Elite Pete]

The Dockers will be hoping that Darcy can stay on the field next year, then the can flip him to Geelong or someone else, to take the contract off the books and help their draft hand for Warner.

Yeah. A lot to play out and that would be their hope but let’s hypothetically go 13 months in the future.

If Darcy stays fit and when he’s on the park they go pretty well plus add in Pickett and Bolton, you’d think they go very deep into the finals, if not win it. Not sure they would be getting rid of Darcy in that case.

If he is injured again for 2025 and they get those 2 and go well. They would certainly look to trade him but what value has he got on a huge contract? And missing nearly 3 years of footy? Would nearly be a salary dump and not sure they will have the trade assets.

 

[amazingjoshy]

If he's healthy

 

[Elite Pete]

That may be so but I’m convinced AFL will award band 1 anyhow because it’s St Kilda the battlers

100%.

 

[Hoskin300]

Picket is not in Boltons league.

Yeah Bolton is a level above Pickett.

 

[Elite Pete]

**** Baker and Pickett.

Would rather we end up with FOS & Travaglia somehow.

Likely can still get FOS?

 

[eaglevision]

I dont know about anyone else but I really hope history repeats itself Pick 3 vibes aka Judd 2.0

I am 100% FOS at 3, Travaglia/Lindsay at 12 then the 2 best KPDs unless there’s a slider. Baker, Kosi et. al. can head straight to the Purples and push out Knobel and O’Driscoll types.

 

[Biggie]

Picket is not in Boltons league.

Not sure that is such a matter of fact statement tbh - Bolton has a higher ceiling, Pickett more reliable

Would happily take Darcy’s contract and a good 1R pick in a salary dump. He wouldn’t even have to move house.

Not much in that set of stats that puts Kosi anywhere near Bolton.
