Agree! good result. This draft is a lottery. Next year will have many kids who matured later. Wells got his players and the side has much more talent injected. Can’t wait to see JC tear it up in 2021

I am sure Higgins is pretty much free. Yeah ok, he cost a draft pick but that’s surely for salary cap room and a jet when fit. He is a better kick and better player than Cocky and Fog have shown so far. time will decide but I am not overly upset

Totally agree. Why trade away potential especially when we have invested so much time in him already? Totally understand the lions position but it’s still not a value trade for the catters

I wonder what the real story is with GWS and where our walk away point is? I really can’t see us satisfying GWS at this point. I would rather see us have pick 8, 13 and 15 and draft some kids than Jezza for overs. Maybe move one of these picks into next year. Or big Sav is part of the deal but...

Totally agree. It’s overs for a 28 year old and totally fair. If not, PSD and pick him up with 8 or 15 or whatever we have

It’s a fair point about the position but I feel Sav’s market value is at an all time high, and his ceiling really isn’t that high...

Bring on the drama of trade week! If GWS think they will get the house for Jezza, they will end up owning another crap contract, and I almost hope they do. It will be the nail on the coffin of that privileged but underperforming club.

Doubtful... He 10% awesome and 90% poor

I like his highlights. He’s winning contested ball and is willing to take body hits to put his team mate to advantage. A building block of a solid future midfield

No. We moved the pick to next year. No list spots so it’s strategically better next year than being forced to use it this year. 37 for 2020 40

Me too. Looking at this years brownlow leaders, top 6 are mainly drafted between 10-25 Fyfe 20 Dangerfield 10 Cripps 13 Neale 58 Kelly 24 Grundy 18 Dusty 3 Bont 4 Macrae 6 Zorko zone selection GC traded to Bris for 34 Higgins 11 Treloar under age selection GWS

I see all these crazy deals to get 3 or 6 or whatever. I predict unless Wells is offered a ripper deal, we won’t see anything like this until trade night if and only if someone slides down the order. you must keep in mind that the kids being drafted are 18 year olds that are unequal in...

Pick upgrade? 24 to 20 or 17 to 15?

Do a comparison to other teams. He’s done outstanding compared to his counterparts

Totally agree! Now we can be part of making other deals happen and get incremental improvements

https://nabafldraftnom.com.au/images/form/booklet_mens.pdf I don’t read the rules like that... but I am not a lawyer ;) On a list, cannot be in national draft. If on a list but uncontracted then preseason is ok

Heh? Wouldn’t he go into the preseason draft... not the national draft. I don’t believe you can trade preseason draft picks

I just love GFCs stance on Kelly. He’s likely the missing piece for the eagles premiership. So, pay plenty of miss an opportunity when you are in the window. Do anyone still think the Eagles have any leverage?!?

Port Adelaide

The only reason I suggest it is that next years draft is so compromised it’s like a 3rd this year

10 + 14 + 2020 2nd but give up 3rd round 2020 2nd round for Stevens

If I was Wells, I don’t dislike the trade but I am busy too, so I would ask the WCE counterparts to do the heavy lifting in getting that top 10 pick from those picks. If that is possible, then we can talk. Please don’t leave me with all the negotiations to get what I want

We need to be more creative that accepting what is known. Neither of those deals will satisfy a trade. He came 5th in the Brownlow. What we know: Geelong actually has all the leverage. They have treated TK superbly and will try and get him his outcome. TK doesn’t want to go in the pre-season...

They were playing him out of position in the first year. Wasn’t he improving his craft in the 2s but was hit by injuries? 2020 he will breakout

Geez. I reckon you are better mightly critical of Sav. He’s a key forward at 21 and has improved every year. His kicking is better and later in the year he was clunking marks from very difficult positions. Give him time

Looks pretty clear cut to me. Top 5 finish in Brownlow. That’s as good as Neale or Sheil, so two first round picks, one high single figures. From what I see is West Coast have a weak hand, and will need pay a fair price for TK. They have no chance of getting him any other way. The draft is not...

The midfield is the answer to most forward line issues. Rubbish deliver. Stagnant ball movement.

Hehe. I am glad I’m not in charge. No winners whatever the deal.

I would take this trade. Pretty tidy position to begin with for the next 2 years. We could trade up with this option. GWS want to get higher than 5, from 9, but more likely will need to trade down not to lose draft points for academy pick. Also, I reckon pick 9 and pick 14 are pretty much...

Nail on the head. It’s somewhat amazing we ever score
