We really need three things: 1- equalise contested ball especially at stoppage and centre bounces (why we get smashed by bulldogs) 2- have a presence up forward, so we teams stack the corridor against us we have a 1:1 marking option up the line like danniher and hogan do for their teams. 3- play...

The irony about all of this is that if his manager and Luke hadn’t pushed for the 4th year, he would have been OOC and would have got there for pick 62. Kinda funny, his extra year let us spread money and then get a better pick, for a player clearly in decline.

If anyone thinks 44 is way unders: Bri’s x 2, GC and dons all have academy players and points in 30s that will be eaten up. I also think GC will need to trade in a couple of points from somewhere. Pick 44 could be pick 39ish or higher. Not a bad pick in a deep draft. Especially if we trade up...

I think we will only take 3 picks, which is why we will try to trade up. Watch us slide back from 44 (40) as well For future second

lol dodo lives on.

The pieces left after the Caleb Daniel trade will show you what this one will be.

My money is on the eventual deal being: NM: Pick 44 + Future 4th Sydney: Parker plus future 4th

Totally agree with this. At the same time, 44 isn’t exactly overs and this could have also been on the table from the start….. Sydney being dumb demanding 2nd rounder, but north not showering themselves in glory either. If we were offered 44 and knocked it back we would be looking like...

so I have a theory that it’s actually the bulldogs who are holding up Parker trade. North want Caleb Daniel and dogs want overs. North can’t finish our deal with anything more than 62 until that deal is done. What would be ideal is if that deal is done early and uses up 62 and then we are like...

44 is going to become 38. We can probably trade it for a future 2nd on thr night.

I think 44 plus swap of f3s

Wanted too much $$$

So we get 44 for Parker. That comes in to 38/39 on draft night. Live trade that for a future second for someone who slides. Points sorted for next year. Not sure we should combine 19 and 22 for 13, but maybe that’s just me.

Interesting if Roos dig in and don’t even offer 44. Will their future 3rd even have points?

Melb are keen. It’s relatively out there now which is why Essendon are pissed. They tried to get Roos pick, but Roos wanted 9 plus future first +. God I hope they keep it and Melb bid on him, they will have a contingency trade at that point ready to go to get points and a future pick, but will...

To be fair this is a tough board to satisfy. We never want to lose key/quality players and we re-signed 5 young solid players this year. Add the three additions last year and we have no $$$ As a result the one thing we are doing is trading the most expensive for least games value player we...

I watched a fair bit of his game. He was virtually exactly what I expected of a first yea ruck prospect. He has better foot skills and hand balling than other rucks, but got muscled out of most contests due to 30kg difference. His tank and running ability looked good too. Basically he showed...

Use all that TPP money, now re-sign Bradshaw on $10m deal and done.

I also loved the “we are a long way apart and prepared to walk away” from north who desperately want senior experience in. Sydney is even worse “he’s a valuable contracted player” who is barely in best 22 and we desperately need his $700k a year off the books. Literally the most pointless standoff

There will be three academy selections before 13

Future first and whatever pick then gives them enough to match bid so pick 9 isn’t wasted matching

I would just wait until Melbourne bid on Kako and then trade for pick 9.

In such an even draft, that seems crazy for a pick upgrade. Let them keep it until draft night then if there is a massive slider pay overs then…. Not now

I didn’t think brissy or GC have enough list spots to attach to points that worthless…

north need 25 for Caleb Daniel who I expect will nominate them. Therefor I think the final trade will be: 44 + future 3rd for future 4th + Parker Gives us 44 this year and helps with points for next year. I actually think when all the academy bids come in 44will be mid 30s

After getting smashed in multiple GF and consistently getting bent over at trade table there would be a revolt if we did it again. If we get nothing fine, but at least TRY.

What about we give Parker and 58 for 25 or is that fantasy land?

What will VFL do if academy player does an Archie Perkins “I don’t want to leave NSW” in interviews and tanks them??

Nah one next year

It will be a large deal, that allows GC to get Lombard (multiple picks) and Rioli, whilst keeping 13 for Nobel and more points. I realised it actually doesn’t matter if GC get screwed as long as they get needed point and 3 players
