[Topiary]

I understand we are considering an offer from Melbourne. We swap our first for their this year first, 7 for 13, their 2023 first and a couple of our 2022 picks 30+

 

[Topiary]

If they are that keen then they need to pay. Not sure 28 does that.

Cough up or * off.

Agree

 

[Scrads]

Whatever happens on Monday night, I reckon the scenes here are going to be unmissable!

Love this news

Wait, just so I have this clear:

We give:
Pick 6
Pick 41 (example)
Pick 45 (example)

We Get:
Pick 13
Melbourne F1

That's enough to make me pause before hanging up on them, but it would feel weird to move off 6 for that. I'll trust us if we take something like that though, it's a bold play.

Another thing that I notice which impresses me with McKenzie is the way he moves. He takes off quickly with little steps, has a nice side step and can change direction quickly. He looks and moves like a small dude but he’s 6’2! Reckon Lewis would be licking his lips seeing him with the ball running towards him.

Whatever happens on Monday night, I reckon the scenes here are going to be unmissable!

Nothing beats the howls of derision taking rough buddy and Lewis. In hindsight they arguably took over 50% of that entire drafts talent in terms of output

Apart form talkback I think the hawks fans were in HHQ those days

Need both their F1, maybe throw in our f2 (although they’d be no more than 8 picks between them but sounds better in trading
Go into with 3 first rounders. We will be seeing our team take shape

If they throw in Freo's 1st for a F2 that's a massive win. 3 firsts are going to be hard to beat, especially going into a strong draft.

 

[JaegarTime]

I’m just trying to will Humphrey getting to us into existence. My heart is set and I know I’m gonna be hurt again like I was when we didn’t take Hollands

Yep. Absolutely stitched.

Yep probably won’t happen

Gold Coast flew all the way out to Ginbey's home apparently. Could still be a shot.

Would be willing to throw in a F2/3 in to make it happen TBH.
We still end up with a solid player at 13, and next years draft depth means that even if it's a Freo/Melb final we're coming out a fair ways ahead imo.

Picks close together feed off each other too

If we end up with potentially Hewett, Ginbey or Allen with that first this year and manage to snag George/Jones with our second I'd be ecstatic

 

[TheFourPillars]

I reckon he could well end up on a Wing.

Makes literally no sense

Did you miss a full stop? I think they want pou and Tsatsas will slide.

We pick tsatas if he gets to us but the dons will pick him mate he wont slide

If this happens we must have some insight that one of McKenzie or clark get to that pick which is a possibility.

Geelong - Allan
Eagles - ginbey
Saints - McKenzie
Carlton- hollands
Bulldogs - buslinger/weddle
Eagles - jefferson

Essentially getting the player we were happy to take at 6 + adding a future 1st is a big win.

They sure did, I heard their list manager talking about to it.

The more I think about it the more I think Allan is the target.

We dont have pick in the 30s do we? Are we trading with brisbane first?

 

[Ned Ryerson]

Some of them will be in the 30s after all the bid matching.

 

[TheFourPillars]

Ahh potential 30s pick gotcha

 

[Hawk the Talk]

The more I think about it the more I think Allan is the target.

2 games short of getting him as a father son is so depressing.

Not happening.

That was my thought exactly. they might be confident one of our targets could get to 13
