Strategy 2021 Draft and Hypothetical pick trade proposals

[Strapping Young Lad]

Lol seriously can we just have a ban on posting things ol clickbait Kornes says…

none of it is interesting and it’s all designed to just stir people up.

Hodgey wants a new rule! Hodgey gets a new rule.

No more clickbait shit from Cornes in here.


Also:

Can we also threadban Rendell quotes. The bloke is senile.

Done

 

[Hawker55]

Can someone please tell me why Collingwood who are down with us would be giving up anything for Jack Gunston?

Two reasons don’t make sense!

He is age 30 and doesn’t fit their needs.
He is on 650k per year.

Those two reasons alone would suggest Gunston is not going to Collingwood.

If Gunston goes anywhere it would be to Essendon is my feel . They are moving up the ladder quickly with a bunch of youngsters, and if his body is sound he could make a huge difference to them for the next 2-3 years as a lead up forward. He would be very dangerous with the likes of Merrett and Parish getting it into him quickly.

plus the family connection I guess

Can’t vouch for how good it is - but this Hawks Twitter account is running a nightly trade week recap and having guests to chat about things. Not sure if he’s there nightly but Ash Browne is there tonight.

It isn’t bad Ash Browne knows his stuff

Yeah I listened to 10 minutes or so and the hosts and listeners all seem sensible.

They were very Pro-Ladhams.

He's just another opinion too though. He put forward the idea of going for Mitch Wallis.

 

[MasterSamurai]

Yeah , I know it's gonna sound weird but I'm not sure if it's worth pick 22 for Gunston! Having 21,22&24 sounds great but this year there are a good bunch of kids up the top end ( top12-15),. So I'd rather the club try really hard to tap into that.
I really want us to get our hands on Ward. Plus a Rachelle, Goater or Hobbs in one sweep

 

[On Topic]

Would be Callaghan. Which is still bloody good.

Yeah, I agree. Even North aren’t stupid enough to pass up on him.
I would happily take Callaghan with pick 2. Hell, I’d even take him with pick 5 .

There's really a top 2, then there seems to be a group of maybe 3-5, and then you could throw a blanket over picks 7-18.

Some kids will slide, and having picks at 21,22,24 would be quite handy to nab one or two of them, and even to trade for a future first should some other club really want a player that's sitting there at Pick 21.

 

[perrdan86]

Wallis. Really.

It was just a hyperthectical of do you bring him in for leadership and play mostly at box Hill.

All of the speakers said no, and I believe Ash said no he didn't think it would happen. More spit balling.

It's not a bad listen. Think it's on every week night until end of trade week. They'll be having cal twomey on at some stage to talk hawks draft.

 

[Turly]

Grab a teaspoon of sugar and you will be fine.

Bottle of Bourbon would be preferable.

 

[Milkshaker]

Burton was a 20 year old kid, maybe a bit arrogant? Wouldn't be alone in the AFL among young players though.

Either way he is not our problem anymore.

Did not think either of them painted themselves in great light to be honest. Club should not have put it up.

 

[Lickmesocks]

pick 5 and a future late pick

I think if we agreed to take McPherson and his 400k a year salary it would be our future first we would roll the dice with.

We would have pick 3 and 5 this year and be without a first round pick next season.

Pick 18 next year is a small price to pay

Haha love it.

 

[CHUBBSS]

I’d rather Gunston doesn’t go, he is worth far more to our developing forwards then any draft pick, unless it was somehow an upgrade to a top 15…

If he does leave tho, (for the worst) I reckon we will rookie green from box hill

Gold Coast don’t want our future first

 

[Lickmesocks]

Vanders and Mitch have thrown it out there that everything is open.

I reckon this ploy will flush anyone out that is not 100% onboard. Has been rumours about Gunners not happy about Clarko and senior players.

Jack has the perfect opportunity right now to put his hand up if he wants out .

 

[Lickmesocks]

Gold Coast don’t want our future first

Strange if true. They are going to need the cash relief this year and will need copious amounts to try and keep King.

I can’t see GC trading pick 3 anyway unless there’s a Wachie Leller available.

Throw in a future 4th as a sweetener and then I’ll have a think about it.

agree really missed his leadership in the forward line with the younger brigade

I’ve never been keen on trading future picks however I’d back is in not to finish 3rd last next season so if the deal was there I’d do it. It really just means we get our 2022 1st rounder a year early which means I don’t have hope we lose games next year so we can get a top 5 pick. The incentive will then be to win which is what it should be.

Reckon Genghis Khan would have been a bloody fearsome rover.

Alexander the Great at CHF, Ghandi on the wing.

I'm seeing a Red Dwarf episode here.
