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

 

[CobberRodgers]

no more big name blow ins

lets draft our next stars - organic build please + targeting emerging fringe talent for cheap.

Agreed!

Get big name blow ins when we need them to go from contending for it, to winning it.


Regenerate the list over the next 3 years, chopping dead wood and trade bait players that are not in the next flag each season (not all at once) and bringing in talent via the draft.

Secure new young talent and existing young talent via front loading contracts as we should have lots spare.

been waiting to see hypotheticals

126 days til trade period

I think the biggest query is whether we could even convince him to come to us.

800-900k a year x 5 years can have a lot of influence to a young mans life.

Do we try and turn Picks 20 and 21 or whatever it is into a mid 1st ? Or do we take both those picks to the draft ? If we can trade a Mitchell or something for another 1st it would be quality going into this draft with 3 firsts or 4 picks inside 25.

I think we'd probably benefit from taking one or two of them to the draft if we can offload one of our big names for a first. Four picks in the top 25~ is huge for us and technically allows us to cover more holes in one go.
Would love for us to somehow manage 4 first rounders over the next two years and as many second rounders. Unless we can bring in established youth (like Cerra) I'd want us to only increase quantity.

 

[derp de derp]

I call this the in Wright we trust hypothesis.

Trade whatever it takes to get GWS’s first pick (tied to Collingwood).
Trade 21, 22 to Collingwood for a future first. We also do not bid on Daicos.

Recruit a FA this year - ??
Recruit a FA next year - Moore

Richmond do have 3 firsts over the next 2 years. Will take Bolton off their hands also.

 

[westhawk]

Happy to get this deal done. Out of our mids, he is the one with good currency and we can afford to lose. Would be good for Worpels development as well.

 

[The hands of stone]

In yesterdays game Cerra lasered a 50m bullet that hit the leading Docker in space 20m out from goal.
The best part was the kick forced his teamate into the space through the zone.

If thats his strength , well we need that . Most teams need that and want it.

We would be silly not to look at him and make a decent offer imo.

 

[Judd2Sewell]

In relation to the discussed potential Cerra trade - pick 2 is really pick 3.

The top two talents have completely separated themselves from the rest of the pack, and if we have pick 2 we aren't getting either of them.

Don’t think this is the right view to be taking so early on. There’s still plenty of games + championships for players to announce themselves. There’s every chance one or two players can bridge that gap by seasons end.

* as it stands.

But based on what all the draft watchers and recruiters are saying - Horne and Daicos are simply a class apart. Hard to see anyone closing that perceived gap.

Kids can improve rapidly , I wouldn't be suprised if by draft time there are a few more in the mix .
Also likely see a few current rated 20-30 kids rocket up the ratings too .

We will get a very good player with our pick.

 

[Wingnut19]

tigers ideal. I think in any scenario we will pay a chunk of his salary for extra draft compo. My top would be Chol plus first rounder or CCJ plus first rounder.

Saw that pass too, and thought that it was exactly what our forwards would love.

That says a lot more about Horne and Daicos than the rest of the group though.

Put them in Cerra’s year and they would also be way ahead of him or anyone else drafted in that year.

 

[westhawk]

I don’t mind Cerra, but there is no way in hell I am giving up pick 2 or 3 for him. If we get a pick in the early teens for Mitchell, then would give that pick up for him.

 

[Gene Simmons]

Pick 11 + CCJ

 

[Lickmesocks]

Go your hardest guys....

Perfectly timed leaked story that has been brewing for a while.

Let the games begin.

 

[The Cleaner]

My top would be Chol plus first rounder or CCJ plus first rounder.

And just like that, we replace the “Titch can’t kick” moans with the “Chol’s soft as butter” moans.

 

[Rhayader]

We'll give you a packet of peanuts and a third round pick for him.

I believe he wants to go to a good side

 

[dusty1234!]

Hey guys, sorry to intrude...
What would be a reasonable asking price in your opinion for Mitchell? Not that it's going to happen anyway...

 

[Blackhawk42]

One of Chol or CCJ in exchange for Mitchell (alongside one of thos higher picks Richmond currently possesses) would be ideal.

Would be even more ideal if that selection could then be used to acquire Cerra.

However a lot would need to go right. You'd need to get any of those 3 players to want to come to us which isn't as easy as it used to be.


IF Cerra nominated us, let's consider a reality where we score 11 and Callum Coleman Jones in exchange for Mitchell. Then send that pick and one of those early picks in the 20's to Freo for Cerra.

That gives us pick 2 (based on current ladder), Cerra, Coleman-Jones and pick 21 (estimate).

I'd take that in a heartbeat. Two 21 year olds with massive star potential, the 2nd best free available 18 year old and another solid early pick in the second round.
