most port fans think we will be lucky to scrape home a trade for pick 30 for polec, a promising kid who has done nothing of note on a park in years. pick 28 for docherty is taking the piss. your pick 12 is overs though too.

You dont pay the heaviest price, you drop back a couple of picks a get a yound midfielder who has bee unlucky with injury and maybe if you took out pick 30, it would look more appealing or if hawthorn gave you thier second round pick.why would hawthorn get two picks back with a promising ruckman ?
and why do port pay the heaviest price for the least well performed player amongst those trades?
Brisbane get: pick 12
Carlton get: docherty, pick 24
you have absolutely zero idea of the port list so why comment on it.
as i mentioned, renouf didnt get many games because he had an injury that made him miss pre-season and port have two ruckmen that are very highly rated. lobbes 2nd half to the year kept renouf out of the side. lobbes 2nd half of the year was very very good. just because our rucks are young and up and coming and you dont hear shit all in the media doesnt mean we have shit ruck stocks. it just means you knwo sfa about our ruckstocks.
Pick 4 + Higgins for J.PATTON keeps getting thrown around. Take it Giants, take it!
Was A carry over compo pick they activated, can't remember the details though.Didn't want to start a thread so thought I'd post it here - why do GWS have pick 9? I'm confused
You're serious?
Patton is more of an unknown now than any top 5 draft pick.
Two knee recons on an undeveloped key forward...Comparisons with Gumbleton wouldnt be far off.
I mean sure hes touted to be a gun, but you're giving up your chance at the 4th best kid (and a gun) to get a total unknown.
I'd say they are relatively equal in terms of value on the market today. Savage on ability and Lucas on potential. Lucas was given a good run in our best 22 this year, and didnt show enough (for mine) to warrant a permanent spot. He's got the skills, but lacks the size, aggression and confidence. It may take a change of scenery to fix this, and you guys could use his outside pace.Carlton have put Lucas on the table and are after Savage .....interested in peoples thoughts on value ..?
Savage V Lucas
Yeah fair enough, id much rather go to the draft with Pick 4 and Higgins.It is a risk yes. But sometimes you need to take one. Look at the Blues and taking Menzel in last years draft. As a dogs supporter - I think we are happy either way. If we trade for Patton we will happily give it a go - if we don't and go to the draft we will be happy with that too.

Sounds like a clone of Brad Sheppard.
WCE & Carlton really stuffed up their first picks in the 2009 draft.
If you wanna see a botched draft check out the Dogs' 2009 draft. Massive lols if you're an opposition supporter, crying in a corner if you're a Dogs supporter.
I think it might have been Scott Clayton's last draft with us, who's now Gold Coast's list manager. Not certain though.Have you still got the same recruiter? That was his first draft wasn't it? If it's the same guy he seems to have improved.

Got pretty lucky in 2010 as well with Libba and Wallis FS selections.Ah fair enough, cheers. He's also got Jason McCartney with him now; they seem to be doing a much better job now at least, haha.
