I thought that too when I read Caps draft..

 

[halfback dasher]

Question to our draft freaks...

Live trading....how does it work ? I’m talking actual ‘timing’ ?

eg. Come our Pick 4, if McDonald is still there, do we contact Ess & say ‘give us pick 6,8 and 2021 first rounder....ya got 90 seconds Dodo ?’

Firstly that’s massive overs ....can see 6,8 for 4 and 23 .
Adressing your org qu yes think it’s 2.30 on the clock BUT iv got a feeling a discussion may have been had already so all parties are ready ...

In what universe is Dodo giving 6, 8 and future 1st for pick 4? 2 out of 3 is in the range of reality.

Some appear to think Dodo would be onto us before we could react.

You can also ask for extra time too (I think gives you up to 5 minutes).

But I agree all this stuff should be hashed out before hand.

Maybe. But where is all the fantasy 3 1st round picks for Logan Mc, coming from?

 

[dermott]

In the latest podcast McKenzie alluded to the fact that they had worked on certain scenarios with other clubs.

Wishful thinking? Dodo won’t offer that.

He'll come for the pick, but offer unders. Nothing surer. Was only going to offer 1 of his 3 picks for North's pick 2. They told him to get stuffed.

Not sure if you’ve had any negotiating experience but it’s called an ‘ambit claim’

In negotiation, an ambit claim is an extravagant initial demand made in expectation of an eventual counter-offer and compromise.

It's called a waste of time.

But feel free to carry on with the ridiculous.

4 and 24 for 6 and 8

Essendon take McDonald and Bruhn.
We take Perkins and Cox. Then Downie and hopefully either a small forward or a project ruck later on.

All the speculation has been fun but definitely looking forward to this all being over in 2 nights time

 

[Bugs1977]

We take all 3 off Dodo or we take him. Point blank.

If he actually slides to us and the recruiters aren’t that hot on McDonald then I’d happily trade pick 4 to them for 6 & 8. If there that keen on snagging McDonald then they will come to the party. I’d even open up negotiations with 4 & 24 for 6 & 7. Let’s go

Bruhn and Perkins would be delightful.

 

[MrPremiership]

McDonald if he slips to us. Yes plesae

 

[Rushed_Behind]

Maybe a sign of things to come??????

 

[TylerDurden]

McDonald if he slips to us. Yes plesae

This. On what earth would we trade out a gun KPF for some other picks??
Take the kid and run. Next years draft is all mids at the top end. We wont get another chance like this. And if Dodo comes late, then bend him over. Hard.

This Toby Lerone kid better be good!

 

[Judd2Sewell]

Dodo.
It's 3 firsts or nothing. He won't do it.

6 and 7 for 4 and a third. I'd do it.

 

[Roby]

I’m honestly so unsure about McDonald. The King twins you could tell would be good but with Logan I just haven’t been impressed personally by what I’ve seen.
Doubt he slips to us anyway going by how highly he’s rated by others.

It's funny how nobody likes Logan McDonald yet everybody will be surprised if he slips.

 

[Roby]

Doubt he gets This draft right, Perkins at 16 is piss taking surely. Lucky we are only 2 sleeps away from the draft.

I've been feeding him info.

I think the angst amongst some is that they aren’t sure if he’ll be a gun KPF

 

[hardway]

(6 and 8) for (4 and 24)

or

(10 13 and 20) for (4 and 24)


Would be more realistic. I would be hoping to squeeze them for

(6 and 7) for (4 and 24)

or

(10 13 and 15) for (4 and 24)


Very hypothetical post - so I will add this...

"live trading will make this year's draft very interesting to watch".

Going to do some actual work.... banning myself till Wednesday! Read you all then

If the bombers offered 6 and 8 for 4 and 24, we should do a second trade with GWS with 8 for 10 and 15.

 

[Roby]

The melts on Cal’s phantom draft are amazing.

Cal speaks directly to every draft hopeful, knows exactly who has interviewed them and how often, cross references that with what player managers and club staff tell him and what lists have what holes.....but Bigfooty nuffies know better because they watched some YouTube highlights and read the Knightmare thread.

I thought you said Perkins could be pick 4 what does Cal say?

 

[hfc70]

And if Dodo comes late, then bend him over. Hard.

Thats being ridiculous apparently. Play nice and offer Pick 4 for their 6 & 44(because we need points for Downie)
Oh & if you’d be so kind to not bid on Downie - that would be greatly appreciate.
