Complete madness imo to give away a future 1st to get a player ranked around the same mark.

There will be a very good player available at pick 4.

I think he’s taking his name literally, he’s bored of the draft and wants to spice it up.

If they were downgrading, they getting that every day of the week, and then some. Upgrading a pick in the top 5 costs a 1st at a minimum.

Missing the crucial context that if North are entertaining a downgrade it’s very likely because they want to be targeting a KPP with their first pick anyway, whether they’re using pick 2 on him or using a later pick and getting extra value. I asked the North board if they’d consider 2 for 4 and F2 which was met with a generally positive response. In a draft as even as this coughing up the F1 would be complete madness.

As long as AFC are not thinking along similar lines as would be up there as our most stupid trade of all time.

Would be a different story if a standout top 2 players, but this year it's pretty even to our pick.

Completely different as they did that to stop us bidding on Tom Green so they could get an extra 1st round pick in before a bid was coming for him. So they essentially moved their F1 into the draft of the day

On top of that, if we draft Serong, Young, Day instead of McAsey at pick 6 we suddenly make out like complete bandits in that deal.

You’re trading for players, not the pick number, hence the value changes every year. You could almost justify the pick 2 & 3 asking price for Harley Reid, or the godfather offer for JHF but it’d obviously be completely laughable this year.

Someone check on Mutineer

No surprise that Charlie West would be a family friend of Lukosius, his grandfather is Wayne Jackson who played for West Torrens and was the AFL's CEO for a period, Jack's father Robert played for Woodville/West Torrens. Charlie is a decent prospect too, one of the best contested marks in this draft.
