Honestly Tas, I don't think Marshall was giving us any structure. Just my opinion.

I'd rather stick Josh Walker in the goal square for team balance.

I'm not advocating Marshall, I am advocating for anyone who can help the structure. We don't rate McDonald, we don't rate Cadman, we don't rate anyone but could have gone after someone, ANYONE. Just having one key forward is just bad list management

Walker isn't a realistic option. He hasn't kicked more than a handful of goals ince 2016, that ship has sailed.

There will be some options available in those picks in the 30's and potentially in the rookie draft.

However, if we go through the whole draft and trade period without adding another genuine KP Forward then I'll have serious concerns about the direction of our list build.
 
People gotta calm down the hate a bit. He is a kid who was too young to leave his family. I'm not going to hate on him too much.

Just wish we got a bit more out of that trade.

Nah. Plenty of kids move away from their families when they turn 18 and most of them don't get paid hundreds of thousands of dollars to do so and receive the instant community and support network that a footy club provides.

If you aren't prepared to leave your family don't ****ing join a national sporting competition.

Realistically, any kid we take late in the draft or as a rookie is going to take a while to develop. Unless Comben or Edwards make a quantum leap forward we don't really have short-term options other than to rely on Goldy, Xerri and CCJ to plug holes.
 
Throughout the year I thought many were being too dismissive of JHF's attitude issues on the field, simply writing them off as "he's just competitive" or the like. But, equally, now that he's gone I think there's an overplaying of the "he was a cancer". Not saying there aren't players glad to see the back of him or that we even should have kept him, but we really should have been able to extract more value out of the trade. Simply adding Port's pick 33 going our way would make it a more acceptable outcome IMO, that way we could package up 40 & 43 and get a couple of picks in the 30s at the draft*. It's also not a disaster though, so we move on and death ride the sh!t out of Port next year.

*There's quite a few, including Brady, saying picks 40 & 43 will come into picks in the 30s. This is unlikely - people often seem to forget that the academy player moving up pushes all remaining picks back a spot. So, as picks currently stand, and if Ashcroft, Fletcher, Davey, Rowston & Michalanney are bid on before out pick 40, those two picks will come all the way into.... picks 40 & 42. And if Brisbane trade 21 to Bulldogs for Dunkley then it'll be picks 41 & 43. And if Brisbane trade back those picks in the 30s at the draft (as Collingwood & Bulldogs did last year, remembering that once the draft starts there's no need to match draft picks to list spots), then they'll go back further, getting closer to when a bid on Harvey might come...

There are a thousand excuses of why we have 1.5 kpf on our list but no real reasons.

How long does this go on for?

Probably been mentioned but listening to Brady on SEN this morning, he gave the impression that the only way we move on pick 3 is for a future first.

Sam asked "is there any consideration being given to splitting pick three as well?" And Brady's response was "we'd be very comfortable picking two of those top three players (this year) ... but we've got two future ones with our own and Port Adelaide's, and if it helps us get another massive hand next year in what we believe is gonna be an extremely strong draft then it'd be something to consider".

You just have to look it it holistically. That’s the way the clubs look at it.
Yep, I think the value of getting him out of the club and having 2 of the top 3 draft picks (+ a F1) was an overall good result, even if breaking the trade down into its parts suggests we maybe should have done a bit better.

The key is to now maximise the valuable draft assets we have, we won't really know for at least a couple of years exactly how we have fared.


There are similarities to last year's trade/draft period. There is a lot of angst about our F2 being included in the CCJ trade and it is certainly hard to argue that on that trade alone we extracted maximum value possible.

However, when you look at the picks we got back and how we used them at the draft, we turned 2021 R3(43), 2022 R2(currently 19) & R3(currently 39) into CCJ, Curtis and Bergman, three round 2 picks using one R2 and two R3.

There is a way to go to know if that has been good value, but I'd argue that Curtis alone would already be worth more than this year's pick 19.

There may have been other ways to get to a similar position, but from that holistic point of view (with some perhaps fortunate hindsight and a bit of luck) the net result is a lot better than the often lamented "CCJ for 19".

stop talking about clark we don't need to spend so much on a speculative hbf.
no more speculative than the kid we'd take with the mid-late teens pick that he'd probably cost.

he's talented in his own right, in the perfect age range, and fills a hole with his ability to play half back and wing.

if the deal's there to be done, we should absolutely pull the tigger

CCJ should have played more this year as the forward/relief ruck. He looked decent up forward for the tiges. Goldy is still our no1 ruck. If X wants a game then he needs to ruck better than goldy or play forward better than CCJ. Another Noble fk-up.
