Is it called Rookie List for a reason?

I hope that question get's asking in the AFC trading room. There will be a massive backlash if we don't take the SA kid in that scenario but it shouldn't play a part in who we select

My surname is Cook so I'm biased. No Cook has made it in Crows colours and Brayden won't be the first. As much as we've all hoped he would progress, he hasn't and he won't. Delist.

Is anyone thinking we should have taken WC F1 last year for Curtin which would have given us 3&4 in this draft (Maybe Lalor & Draper?) or happy with Curtin 12 months on?

Thank you - but I'm out. I'll be back when this thread has returned to its title

My worst nightmare, gets very tricky from here: one of Smith, Smillie, Reid, Langford...but which one?

All about how you rate Lukosius - He's a special talent and may get to show it in a team that will look to play to his strengths. They've overpaid on his salary though - he's being paid on potential and that's always risky

You seem well placed to judge Essendon - but Adelaide might surprise you. Last season was compromised by the loss of Thilthorpe pre-season; they'll be big improvers this year

Gave up 28 for ANB (third in the Melbourne B&F) and approx Pick 30 next year for Peatling (Best 22 in a team that should have made the GF and they wanted to keep). Add Cumming, also GWS best 22 when fit, who you may be underrating, and, that one Pick in the best draft this century is Pick 4; an...

No whispers but I have a sense we are trying to keep our options open in case who we want isn't left at Pick 4. If Richmond get Pick 6 for Rioli we could go Pick 4 + F2 for Picks 6 & 14 or Pick 4 + F2 +F4 for 7 & 8 with St Kilda

I make that 7 & 25 in 2035 for Pick 9 in 2024. If any team is falling off a cliff next year it's Melbourne

Crows: Peatling, F3 Giants: F2 & 42 That's fair. Values him at between pick 22 and 30 unless one of us badly underperforms next year. The thing is he's out of contract and chose us: you don't get fair value in that instance and probably have to take the chance on us bombing again next year...

If we finish above them we virtually get him for free. Hard to see a form reversal that strong for both teams as the Giants came very close to the GF - but they are losing at least three best 22 players

Only six points off winning Melbourne's B&F - impressive, a bit more than a solid contributor as some have him down

If Carlton win the flag GC have given up Lukosius for two tiny upgrades and if Carlton come 12th then GC basically gave up Lukosius for Pick 24. Can't see it

Top 5 were: 1. Hogan 2. Tom Green 2. Whitfield 4. Idun 5. Daniels Given he didn't play a full season and was a regular sub I doubt he made Top 15 but that's hardly relevant

If I was Freo the chance of us finishing bottom 4 again would be the motivation. Be a 50/50 bet

Adelaide F1 to Freo for 13 and F1. There's a reasonable chance we come 15th and they make the GF but it's time to gamble. If we come 12th and they come 6th it's been a good trade. Trade 4 and 13 to St Kilda for 7 & 8 (Battle compensation) We get two gun players to develop this year, Draper...

I would be prepared to finish bottom 4 next year as long as we cleaned out the dead-wood and gave the next generation their opportunity. We are not winning a flag in 2025. Regardless of anyone else's form: Dowling, Taylor, Nankervis, Edwards, Ryan, Curtin, Cook, Bond & Pick 4 must play whenever...

Rory is a club champion and done a mighty job. He's got the most out of his career through dedication and ability. It's not his fault he's been a club champion when we've never had so few champions running around. When Roo and Bunji were running around they had Rehn, Hart, Smart, Goodwin...

Fair trade for Rory Laird

I wanted a Pick to take Dodson and 17 should be around the mark. Freo really should play finals next year and may be a Top 4 side. We will have a better draw and should improve but it's an optimistic supporter thinks we're playing finals. So maybe, Pick 8 for Picks 14 and 17 - which be slightly...

Luko is not elite talent. On the bass of his AFL career he's a nice to have at best. SA based footy reporters and recruiters rated him the best talent from the state since Platten, D Jarman, Bradley, McGuinness etc, and pride means they can't disavow that view. Six years in the system and he...

We haven't made finals in seven years...there's not a realistic Crows fan who thinks we are guaranteed to play finals in the next three years. Sydney are top and favourites to play in another GF despite a major wobble, yet you are arguing we've made as many mistakes as they have in recruiting...
