2019 Phantom Draft starting 28/10/2019

That rule only relates to using a 1st round pick to match, ie: GWS matching a bid on Greene at 4 means they have to use their 1st rnd pick (6) to match, leaves them 170pts in excess but that carries over to the end of the draft and if not used then banked for future years. If, however, they trade that pick 6 for later picks (after the 1st rnd)and before a bid on Greene is made, then any excess pts can be used to upgrade leftover later picks. It's one of the reasons I was surprised to see them trade up to pick 6 in the first place, I would have thought that they would keep their powder dry and manipulate picks after the bid came in, which they can do.
Thanks for the clarification, points banked only in first round.
THE_GUN I'm pretty sure it works like this for the Phantom Draft

Bid with Pick 27 is worth 703 points
20% discount requires 562 points to match
Port's pick 29 is worth 653 points
91 points left after matching
Port's Pick 29 is downgraded to Pick 65

This is the way it worked when we bid on Naish

#38 Richmond - Brock Smith
189cm 82kg Gippsland


Everything about smith reminds me of Nick Vlastuin
The tall defender compares his games to the likes of Dylan Grimes and Brayden Maynard, just with a bit more “niggle”.
During the 2019 NAB League season Smith was one of Power’s biggest contributors averaging 19.6 disposals and 5.4 marks in his 12 appearances.
Medium defender with a great appetite for the contest and very strong overhead. He is tough and shows good use of the ball. He was solid in defence for Vic Country in the 2019 NAB AFL Under-18 Championships, averaging 13.7 disposals. He has had an outstanding year as captain of Gippsland Power in the NAB League, averaging 20.9 disposals at 76 per cent efficiency and 5.9 marks. A very good player one-on-one and courageous in his attack on the ball.



#39 - Richmond - Hugo Ralphsmith
9/11/01
188cm/75kg
Sandringham Dragons/Vic Metro
Midfielder


Now this kid is X-Factor personified
Ralphsmith showed how dangerous he could be in a final against the Calder Cannons kicking three first quarter goals proving too strong in the air and too quick and slick at ground level. He would finish the game with 19 disposals, eight marks and kicking 3.3 in his best performance for the year. Ralphsmith oozes talent and despite underperforming for Vic Metro he was still able to pull of one of the plays of the championships kicking a long range banana and make it look effortless and it’s almost a case of what cant he do as a forward as he ticks a lot of boxes and is the type of player you could see flourishing in a team like Richmond that like to move the ball on at all cost.

STRENGTHS:
X-Factor
Vertical leap
Speed
Work rate
Clean hands

"Cal Twoomey"
He can outrun nearly anyone (Ralphsmith finished fifth in the Combine's 2km time trial, running 6:12 minutes) and can also leap high and take spectacular grabs (he was equal fifth in the running vertical jump test).
HUGO Ralphsmith's NAB AFL Draft Combine was a clear reminder to recruiters of his athletic attributes.
But his coach at Haileybury College in Melbourne's school system, Essendon champion Matthew Lloyd, didn’t need his memory refreshed in regard to Ralphsmith's qualities.
"He [polarises] people and they're unsure about him, but I look at his athleticism, his speed and his ability to go to full forward and take marks on the lead," Lloyd said recently.

Two good picks. Like both of these.

Good selections, Ralphsmith replaces Menadue. Like Fraser Phillips and Darcy Cassar also.
 
In that case, it will require 506 points to match
Port's pick 29 is worth 653 points
147 points left after matching
Port's Pick 29 is downgraded to Pick 60 (146 points)
What i have seen on other phantoms is the amount of list spaces efect this and the existing pick is brought foward , If you take mead then still have another pick that gets to #60 you would need to drop off a pick at the end and that dis adavantages that club.

Im not exactly 100% sure but there is effectively 2 spot differences between the 2 scenario's so cant be stuffed worrying about it but if you want to work it out and let me know im happy to change it

The number of available spots on a list will just drop off the club's last pick in the draft.

The main thing is that picks are never upgraded, only downgraded. If your next pick doesn't have enough points to match then it is reduced to 0 points. The number of points remaining will then downgrade their following pick and so on until the balance is met. Depending on how many list spots the team has will determine how many picks at the end of the draft they have to fill all their spots, or if the picks are just removed entirely.

GWS Pick 41 - Joshua Shute

Joshua Shute (SA) - GWS Giants
187 cm 74 kg
Midfielder

Probably the most suited player to be a pure wing in the draft Shute really impressed me during the U18 carnival, winning high outside ball numbers and often setting up team mates inside 50 he's everything you want in a winger. Still lightly built he'll need a couple of years to develop but I truly believe he has Whitfield attributes with how he uses the ball, which our talls down forward will love.

Strengths: Disposal by foot, workrate, high production for outside player, football smarts
Room for improvement: Inside game, general athleticism

happy to change it if you have worked it out let me know
 
Pick 40 - Noah Cumberland - Brisbane (Matching GWS bid)
183 cm 79 kg
Reason:
A versatile prospect who was arguably the second best Allies player Cumberland comes to Brisbane as a fairly blank canvas, having shown ability as a forward, midfielder and defender he'll be able to slot into where ever Brisbane feel they need him most with relative ease. Aggressive at the footy I think he could develop and eventually take over Mitch Robinson's role
Also considered: I don't think Brisbane let slip through to anyone else, has a lot of desirable AFL traits and one I'd consider from 30 on wards
 
THE_GUN You're up.

Also what happens with Brisbane's picks now i
I've matched
Its sanaya pick again

Re: Brisbane picks they have #48 , #53 , #56
Im just going to wipe out #48 and bring their pick #72 to #65 with the left over 70 points it takes their pick #72 (19 points) to #65 (90 points)

Pick #42 Richmond -MITCHELL O’NEILL
Tasmania Devils/Allies | Outside Midfielder
21/02/2001 | 181cm | 69kg


Gone with best available with this selection
The top Tasmanian prospect was an All-Australian in his bottom-age year, and has a nice blend of inside and outside capabilities. Given his lightly built frame, expect O’Neill to stick to the outside during the National Under 18 Championships, but he can win his own ball at the same time. He reads the taps well and is able to spread to the outside, pumping the ball inside 50 to set up scoring chains. Having spent time in defence last year, O’Neill has moved into the midfield and found just as much of the ball, and is a crucial ball user on the outside.

Foxfooty.com.au says: The Tasmanian bottom-ager was mighty impressive throughout the Under 18 carnival, pushing forward and hitting the scoreboard. O’Neill had multiple games where he had 20 disposals or more, including a 27 disposals, five inside 50s and four clearance performance against Vic Country in their opening game of the Under 18 Championships. His strong season resulted in him being rewarded with All-Australian selection (Matt Balmer )
