We can’t trade our second (as we have no F1 we need to hold a pick in at least each of the 2nd, 3rd and 4th rounds). We do have two thirds so we can trade one of the two thirds assigned to North and Carlton. I really can’t see a F3 pushing us up the draft order.Would cost us atleast north's f2 and our 30
Probably even more tbh, some say he won't pass wce at 12 now
Has been a real bolter
We will be allowed to trade without a future forth if we hold two future thirds, but I don't see how we can shake out a future second somewhere to get North's pick out in trade this year for something of value.
I don't want to see us trade that future 2nd (which I will call pick #20) for pick #45 and a future second from Gold Coast (which I will call pick #27).
If Allan makes it beyond West Coast's picks #8, #12 and #20 then we might be able to trade up heavily (as in giving away all our picks) to any of:
#21 - Bulldogs
#22 - Essendon
#23 - North Melbourne
#24 - Hawthorn
#25 - Collingwood
Before West Coast picks again at #26
Bombers will probably have better options than our pick #30 and objectively shitty sweeteners.
The name Allan and being Ben's son is pushing his number beyond his real value based on form in the colts and state NAB under 18's i feel.
A few have said this draft is has more quality tall's than most years though they come with ris re longer development time. The younger crop of Hagen, Broadbent and Macdonald all post October birthdays if i'm not mistaken, Lemmey will be a beauty, Adams worth a go. Like to think we have a chance to get Lemmey, Hagan and Adams with Broadbent and Macdonald from the rookie draft...something like that anyway.

Don’t we have Norths F4??We will be allowed to trade without a future forth if we hold two future thirds, but I don't see how we can shake out a future second somewhere to get North's pick out in trade this year for something of value.

In the trade we did with North for Logue/Tucker.
We gave up our own F3 for North F4.
My understanding is we have
F2 (North), F3 (North), F3 (Carlton), F4 (North)
Therefore we can trade F3. I’d be offering the Carlton one up for an upgrade but I doubt anyone will show any interest.
North didn’t want the pick. They have another pick early 40’s which they will reportedly swap with Brisbane as soon as the draft starts. They are loading up for 2023 and have a father son that they believe they can get with a late pick either bid match or just selecting him like we did with Benning (or similar to what they did with Archer).I think we might have that pick. I think you're also right that we don't really have much of value to trade at this point. I'm surprised we were able to swap a future 4th for a pick in the 40s.

Yep - picks after 50 will be like North’s father-son prospect Cooper Harvey. Brisbane will likely take a pick or two after using a large sweet on their F/S picks, probably redrafting AhChee for eg.That's their story, but I am surprised another club wasn't interested in swapping a future pick for #43. I do think this draft might fall over early.
Hopefully it's one we look back on in five years as really getting value.
Lived my entire life in Australia, Africa and Indonesia. A few bighty things there. But apart from media reports, I know first hand of one single red back spider bite: mild. Not requiring treatment. Everything else is second hand info.WTFF?! Bring on the cold! The colder the better. Ain't no f***** snakes in the cold! Let it snow, Let it snow, Let it snow!
Trade up for who? Take a punt…Thought we might do something like this tbh.
Wouldn’t be surprised to us use the picks to trade up but I’m more than confident the club’s recruiters can find some very decent players at picks 30, 43, 44 and 67. They won’t all be decent players of course but I reckon we’ll get at least two that’ll be long term AFL players tbh.

Slow news day
If you look at our best 22 that were late picks, or rookied, it’s difficult toGiven the pick swap, the club has a few players in the late second round in mind.
I can hazard a guess, but the words they use are team fit oriented as against best available.
I’m thinking our requirements are in no order.
Ruckman
Small magician for forward pocket
198-205cm Tall forward who likes shoving people around.
Tall 197-200cm key defender who likes to niggle forwards… pinching them is a skill we can get Crowley back to coach!
Speedy winger with sublime foot skills and a wicked side step, and ability to break tackles.
Another Unicorn that can play 2 of the above roles!

I think we'll go best player with our first and then go needs with the others. I agree with your list needs but would extend the forward magician to small or mid size. Banfield is our current first choice mid size forward, or 4th tall, and while he's ok, we need better.
My Magician pick is Munkara, just before pick 40…. Sorry Dodo…. And your right not small magician but a mid sized one!
