AFLW 2024 - Round 10 - Chat, game threads, injury lists, team lineups and more.
Adelaide had to Give Melbourne a 2nd back as well so it was Lever + Pick 35 + F3 >> Pick 10 +F1 +F4That’s incorrect…Jake Lever did but he was 21
Just wait until we cop up two firsts.
Carlton traded out of the first 2 rounds next year to move up 9 spots in an even draft. If their pick 3 (4 after Ashcroft) isn't a star, or if they aren't a top 6 team next year, it's a terrible series of trades for them.
This and the Owies trades are because they have not managed their list spots well. They couldn't accommodate the Camporeales and 2 first round picks with their list spots so they had to consolidate that into one pick. And now they have no hand next year.
Rather have both Travaglia and Trainor as an example than just O’Sullivan. The Camporeale twins are very average!Not just 9 spots.
9 spots in the first round up to pick 3.
Completely disagree with your take, they are killing it bringing in BOTH the twins and their 3rd rated player in all the land.
No hand next year?
Future picks mate, they're coming in next year......
Are Houston and Perryman moving the dial that much though? They need key position players at both ends not 2 HBF. Houston is very good don't get me wrong but they clearly feel they can contend for a little while yet which is why there topping up. It will only be a decent trade if there contenders the next 2-3 years and he is a big part of that. If not we'll than they are in a bit of trouble list wise.Collingwood went into the period without their first or second round picks after finishing bottom 10.
They come out with Houston and Perryman.
Pretty good if you think there's still juice to squeeze out of that list.
Sidebottom, Howe, Pendles, Crisp, WHE, Mihocheck, Mitchell. A third of the team could drop off any day.
Have a lookSave face from what exactly?
Where was this taken from? Pick 20 seems very high if I am reading that correctly.If Cody Anderson is a Hawks Academy player do we have enough points to match if he is bid in the 17-23 range?
NFI how all these systems work.

I think its basically talent wise pick not position when it's your first pick generally and for where west coast are and what they see in this draft is the talent is comparable across the first 20 or so picks. So they are not losing much in terms of talent.
The Herald Scum don’t have him rated in the top 60 and DoDo lost his job so can’t fist pump.If Cody Anderson is a Hawks Academy player do we have enough points to match if he is bid in the 17-23 range?
NFI how all these systems work.

Its not mate the draft is very even pick 12 almost as good as pick 3
Mid year, probably rubbish source - https://www.espn.com.au/afl/story/_...ower-rankings-josh-smillie-jack-matt-whitlockHave a look

I believe we can go into deficit if required on next year's draft but could be wrong on that.
Guarenteed that Esscum bid on him early to try fk us over.If Cody Anderson is a Hawks Academy player do we have enough points to match if he is bid in the 17-23 range?

I LOVE the two you mention and was not against splitting the pick and taking two.Rather have both Travaglia and Trainor as an example than just O’Sullivan. The Camporeale twins are very average!
Regardless of how even the draft is, would you rather have 3rd bite at the apple or 12th?Its not mate the draft is very even pick 12 almost as good as pick 3
They won't swap 3s and 4s as they'll be lower than our picks.If the haggling is over the F3, I hope we can make the first ever connect four trade in AFL history to split the difference.
In: Barrass, F3 (WCE), F4 (WCE)
Out: F1 (Haw), F2 (Haw), F3 (Haw), F4 (Haw)
No but I would rather 2 bites at 12 and 14 than 1 bite at 3 in a very even draft across the first 15 or so kids. The proposed top 4 are far from standouts. Trading pick 14 for Baker was the biggest mistake in that trade.Regardless of how even the draft is, would you rather have 3rd bite at the apple or 12th?
It was a 3 way trade, they never actually got 14. I get the point you're making but it was just a bad trade - if the difference between 3 and 12 is as negligible as being made out, there would have been zero issue with accepting 14 over what pick we might have had if we didn't end the season so strongly.No but I would rather 2 bites at 12 and 14 than 1 bite at 3 in a very even draft across the first 15 or so kids.

It will be interesting. They will never have a hand like this again because they don't have anyone else left worth trading for. So from now on it will be one pick at a time I reckon. And while they might be bringing in 8 players they have to replace three good players as well as a few average ones in a team that was already the worst in the comp, so the net gain is really only three or four. And while those recruits mature the few good players the Tiges have left will be getting older. Lynch and Prestia, Vastuin, Broad and Hopper could be gone before this intake is up and running so Richmond need to have a lot of their replacements among this crop of recruits as well. There are so few good players on their list under 25 that whatever success they get will need to come from this draft. If they get 8 guns they might be ok; but if they only get four guns, a couple of decent players and two spuds they will be in trouble. And of course they have a new coach trying to wrangle it all.Tigers are set to have a putrid team, but 8 picks within 24 in a very hyped draft.
Genuinely interested to see if going that all in can be a valid way to build a side. Probably won't know for 7-10 years.
I am having a good chuckle, but could you imagine us, we would be flinging shit on wallsPorts board is even more feral. They've lost it.
