I think George Kramer was being amusing. Why would NM downgrade this and next years firsts for no benefit? Will they turn into Santa Claus?

Not assuming, bloody hilarious

A likely scenario I can see playing out, if we wanted to make the upgrade to pick 2, is:

North F1 for GWS pick 16 and F1
North pick 2 and GWS F1 for Adl pick 4 and F1

This way GWS get a really good pick to replace a midfielder in 2025, while retaining a good pick in this year. GWS have a lot of form with this type of trade.

North slide down to get their man, while also getting back into the draft pick 16 - where they can get someone like JWhitlock, or another tall - which I understand they want - currently second pick is 62.

They stay in the first round next year with our F1, could be top 10-12.

We go up a couple to get the best available mid, while picking up GWS F1, which we will be looking to on trade for NAS anyway, but it's still good currency if we keep it, could be similar to ours, likely higher but who knows?

Who is losing here?

Yeah this is plausible

North not getting a lot of value for their F1, but it doesn’t sound like they’d get much more than that for it anyway. Maybe change 16 to 15?

ain't no way Smith makes it to St kilda

So to try and make this more appealing than sliding our F1 I will put forward the only other trade that I see being mildly appealing to NM.

ADL: F3 + F3 (leaving us with 1 x F3)
SYD: F2 (need points for academy kids and this is a decent points haul)

ADL: 4 + F2 (Syd)
NM: 2

Sure, that would be fine.

Can't see NM doing it, but I'd be happy

just because we might d o it , doesn't mean its a good trade

I'll believe it when I see it.
