List Mgmt. 2024 Draft & Trade Hypotheticals

[Kbroome]

Might’ve been a terrible draft but we had a free hit at one of the best out of it and chose to overlook him for some inexplicable reason

Also we got Grundy for junk picks, the trade would’ve proceeded regardless, we just would’ve used other junkier picks

If you think of it like that if we disregard that trade we end up with Grundy and Cleary but don't have pick #22 that we got from North for Stephens last year as we would have asked for junk picks rather than that future 1st at the time

 

[BloodySwan]

Everyone gets up and arms about the Weddle thing it was a terrible draft go through the first round there’s probably 5 decent blokes in the first 25 picks. Yes the Hawks lucked out it happens. The trade allowed us to have the picks for Grundy

Go back over that draft, it is looking to be a decent draft especially the first 12 picks. We did badly, some players have taken a while to come along but we're the only club to strike out completely

I think the moral of the story is that we are very clever at manipulating picks but terrible at actually using them.

Yep need to manipulate picks to eventually trade them, not actually draft someone with them unless it is bid matching

My theory:

If we win a flag, we’d become an unstoppable juggernaut, as we’d never have a pick in the top 20 & hence would nail the draft every year.

We do well in the rookie draft, and MSD. Something allows us to find a diamond in the rough but we're unable to differentiate between stars

Our recent drafting across the board has been pretty poor.

There are a couple of exceptions (eg Roberts), but our strike rate with mid to late range and rookie picks has also been average

Pity we weren’t picking in the first 12…from our range it wasn’t a great draft. It was expected COVID draft

We wanted Ed Allen unfortunately the Pies took him. I’d have rather taken Allen then traded our next to the Hawks

Darcy Jones another small forward taken just after us. He's looking good

We flubbed that draft. Pure and simple. No need to keep excusing the club for it.

Who came with plenty of injury concerns looks good but it wasn’t without risk at the time

It was a covid draft clubs were more likely to stuff it than not. The talls everyone wanted here have been duds, Weddle is playing as a tall utility

We do well in the MSD? Not one hit.

I thought McLean was from the MSD but you're right, none of them have come good

 

[Bloods86]

You say that, but it's not true. Even if we didn't pick a true tall, we still gave up a pick because we didn't rate players and got Vickery instead.

Weddle clearly not a dud
Gruzewski tracking well, even if you disagree
Allan tracking well
Jones clearly not a dud

We obviously didn't rate Reidy highly enough to grab him later in the ND, when ruck was a clear need, instead left with Owen.

Magor was good, but we changed the role that made us select him, go figure.
