What do people reckon about this
Pick 1 - Fos (mid)
Pick 6 - Lalor (mid)
Pick 10 - Langford (mid)
Pick 11 - Armstrong (key fwd)
Pick 18 - Hotton (mid/sml fwd)
Pick 20 - J Whitlock (key fwd)
Pick 23 - trade for someones 1st rounder 2025
Pick 24 - Hannaford (mid/sml fwd)
1, 6, 10, 11, 18, 20, 23 and 24
8 x No!!!If St Kilda offered picks 7 & 8 for 1. Would we take it?
We will lose if we see FOS end up with the filth. He’s going to be a very very good player. But in the end, it’s up to Blair and the recruiters to determine if the player they rate as pick 2 is going to be better than say players at 6 and 18 as a package.We can't lose either way.
I reckon you're dreaming.What do people reckon about this

On the flippity-flip-flip, some of us might occasionally flog you with it when FOS becomes a star and Jagga is good but not great.On the flip side to that, if we do pick him and he doesn't become everything posters expect him to become,there won't be many who put their hands up and say they got it wrong.
Speaking of cards, Blair just called me and asked me to make double-triple-super-duper-sure you come to my poker night.Reading between the lines it would seem that unless we got something that was heavily in our favour we won't be trading up into the top 6. Sounds like we will hold our first 4 picks and then look at what offers some for the later picks and decide whether we trade back and/or into 2025.
If we play our cards right we could very well add a dozen top rated kids across the next 2 drafts, with at least 8 of them coming in the first round. That is a rebuild that is done right and sets us up before Tasmania start scooping up talent like GWS & Suns did
Yeah, you're dreaming.Came up with the below this morning, while it's unlikely to happen it does allow us to keep 6, North still have a reasonable shot at Tauru, the obvious hurdles are getting Saints to trade back from 7 to 15 & 16, Giants could well be interested in getting up to 11
Wrong songCarly Simon hates this
none of these scenarios make sense we simply holdRealistically, the absolute most I would give for pick 2 is 6 & 18.
1,2,10,11 is huge
Id make this offer to North

Then sit back and wait.
If it's still a no, then just before draft night id offer this

If we end up with the first 2 picks I'm going:
Pick 1 Lalor
Pick 2 Jagga Smith
Pick 3 - suck eggs Carlton
With picks 10,11,20,23 & 24 to play with.
I don't think they see it as 6 vs 2 - more likely they see it as FOS vs Langford/Smilie.Not as confident that we'll do it without it being very much in our favour especially if we're needing to give up 6 to do it.
Now your talking! That's exactly what the RFC need...and that's why we pay Hartley the big buck$! Go get them Blair!Is there anyway we can keep 6 and still get 2 from north?
People never think about the flippity flip flip and just the negative scenario.On the flippity-flip-flip
Maybe re-read what they said. Already Offering the 3 picks.heck off. Give us all 3 and we'll think about it a bit before still saying no. The only picks for sale are our last 2.
I don't think they see it as 6 vs 2 - more likely they see it as FOS vs Langford/Smilie.
They also have to think about player retention and pairing FOS and Lalor together will be another Rowell/Anderson situation where they stay together likely their entire careers.
I think North would end up accepting 6 and 18 for pick 2. It means they don't reach for Tauru and they still have another selection on the first night.
Makes sense to me.
Being a supporter of a club doesn't guarantee retention (it definitely helps) but being able to start and take the journey with one of your best mates would be massive.If staying together and player retention was the major selling point then
1 - Langford (Richmond man)
2 - Murphy Reid (Richmond man)
Potentially 3 - Jagga lives in Richmond but ultimately loves Collingwood and Daicos.
There are so many options still available at this pointOr the far more realistic scenario, the above will never happen for 1 reason.
RICH - Lalor
NM - FOS
CARL - Jagga
ADE - Draper
Melb - Langford
RICH - ?
Prepare to be shockedLots of talk that tigers will take Lalor and FOS if they have pick 1 and 2.
I see Jagga as your next Cotchin like captain. I’d be shocked if you didn’t select him. Thoughts?

Reckon you'd be an easy mark, you find it hard to hide excitement when something 'great' is in front of you.Speaking of cards, Blair just called me and asked me to make double-triple-super-duper-sure you come to my poker night.
No different to everyone else on here including you.Yeah, you're dreaming.
Don’t think it has to be very much in our favour at all. Blair is pretty decent when it comes to trading, he’d do a fair deal which may slightly favour us, if he does it at allNot as confident that we'll do it without it being very much in our favour especially if we're needing to give up 6 to do it.
Soz I didn’t realise ‘or’ actually meant ‘and’ in the English languageMaybe re-read what they said. Already Offering the 3 picks.
Being open minded to best and worse case scenarios is something more posters should embrace rather than just being focused on their ideal scenario happening and then melting when it doesn't.People never think about the flippity flip flip and just the negative scenario.
Imagine if we don't trade up to pick 2 and FOS turns into one of the best players in the comp. Everyone saying "let's not trade up to pick 2 and just hold" will do the old flippity flip flip themselves and claim we should have always done it.
heck off we are taking FOS & Lalor. You traded up for no reason!Lots of talk that tigers will take Lalor and FOS if they have pick 1 and 2.
I see Jagga as your next Cotchin like captain. I’d be shocked if you didn’t select him. Thoughts?
