What do you expect Blair to say “nah we could careless about bidding” he made the public comments the AFL expect.
The AFL could barely convince themselves to investigate Essendon drugs, dees tanking or hawks racism. They’ll never investigate a team not bidding or some nudge nudge wink wink deal over academies and f/s unless it’s a PR disaster.
Also, basically outside JUH bids come at the end or after the expected range, people on here were convinced Naish’s bid would come in 20s because Twomey mentioned he might be a late 1st and he got bid on at 37 or something. Clubs don’t waste time and resources on father son and academy as they’re not available. We organised to interview Ashcroft at draft combine and I doubt we or he cared that he missed it.
As for screwing over Carlton and Adelaide, I very much doubt it crosses Blair’s mind. If there is a deal that benefits us he might but he won’t do something that has no advantage to us to screw another club over.
And that’s even before you consider that neither are in espn, Twomey, Fox footy, the age etc… top 30 drafts. What club is gonna reach for a player they won’t get?
Land on the camel ???If Jagga falls to us at 6 I’ll do a backflip off the roof of Swinburne Center
There're good cases to be made for all of them, I'd prefer a ruck/forward who has size that can be part of this large group of draftees and grow as a team with them.What’s the disparity between Jack Whitlock and Gerreyn and Sims? Is it worth using a top 15 or top 20 pick when we could feasibly get both Gerreyn and sims with picks 23 and 24?. They are all genuine KPF size at 200cm as opposed to Armstrong, shanahan and faull who are 195 or below.
Hannaford, Barret and Ough too pleaseMate Xavier Lindsay he is a must get holy moly. Watching his vic country vs vic metro, looks like a beast. FOS looks so underdone in this definitely looks unfit or like he had missed a lot of footy which he did. I’m starting to think we just go full Vic Country at this point. Lalor - FOS - Lindsay - Travaglia sheeeesh
He'd be handy on a wing, probably the best kick in the draft. Swap Travaglia with Oliver (Darcy Wilmot mk2) and that's a fair set of weaponsMate Xavier Lindsay he is a must get holy moly.

Where's the news of the Saints wanting to split pick 8 coming from?So Saints are wanting to split pick 8 for two later first rounders..
I know this won’t happen, but a man (and woman) can dream.
Richmond trade pick 18 and 20 to St Kilda for pick 8
Therefore we hold: 1 6 8 10 11
After securing pick 8, Richmond then trade 6 and 11 to North Melb for pick 2 and future first
We go to draft with: 1 2 8 10 23 24 + north future first
This is where the dream goes from good to great..
Pick 1- RICH (Lalor)
Pick 2- RICH (O’Sullivan)
Pick 3- CARL (Draper)
Pick 4- ADEL (Langford)
Pick 5- MELB (Smillie)
Pick 6- NM (Tauru)
Pick 7- STK (Armstrong)
Pick 8- RICH (Smith)
Pick 9- MELB (Trainor/ Reid/ Lindsay/ B Allan)
Pick 10- RICH (Shanahan)
Pick 23- RICH (Faull)
Pick 24- RICH (either on trade for another future first, or take a running back like Jacques or Oliver)
Head hits the pillow on November 20 feeling pretty good about ourselves with: Lalor/ FOS/ Jagga/ Shanahan/ Faull
That year bombers first pick was 38 & the Hawks was 52 & the reason they didnt match the bid was because he was crap, everyone knew it.Explained: Why Hawthorn passed on Irving Mosquito at 2018 draft

That's ok if he Reid gets homesick at the same timeThis might just be me, but I'd prefer if we didn't take Bo Allan due to the go home factor. Taking WA players worked out for us in a way this time around but the last thing I want is when we are ready to challenge again, he gets homesick.
Where's the news of the Saints wanting to split pick 8 coming from?
If they did, it's because they want to trade with North, 7 for 2 and a later 1st from splitting pick 8
I see you like to bet Each way.Also, basically outside JUH bids come at the end or after the expected range, people on here were convinced Naish’s bid would come in 20s because Twomey mentioned he might be a late 1st and he got bid on at 37 or something. Clubs don’t waste time and resources on father son and academy as they’re not available. We organised to interview Ashcroft at draft combine and I doubt we or he cared that he missed it.

Fourteen teams think the will be at least top 4 next year which means they think they are only trading pick 15 or higher. We just need to work out which teams are the most delusional.Sure it will have appeal, but IMO it won't be to the point where clubs are throwing away possible top 10 picks next year
I see you like to bet Each way.
Already doneFourteen teams think the will be at least top 4 next year which means they think they are only trading pick 15 or higher. We just need to work out which teams are the most delusional.
Think North want 6.11 & 23 for 2 & F1
Yes they doThink North want 6.
Our midfield will be full. Won't fit him inWill Bo Allen be apart of the Harley Reid deal next year for our first and north first?
You’ve lost itWatch.
If Adelaide don't take him he's slipping, possibly out of the top 10.
picks 1, 2 and 10/11 for harley reid ? talk about a fistingWill Bo Allen be apart of the Harley Reid deal next year for our first and north first?
