Wouldn't have needed all that foreplay if you'd just started with that.

pickett would give us pressure in the forward half more than the others and is rather young with the greatest scope for improvement.

Oh over there and Reddit they're acting like it's a done deal.

Melbourne will trade Trac. It'll be a divorce worthy of Hollywood but they will do it. Kozzie doesn't get traded.

I'd give every single pick we have to land pickett and Bolton.
I'll even throw in a couple of original '90's Duff beer cans to sweeten the deal
Yeah…
I wonder how far their thinking goes.
Gawn and Viney have re-signed.
Petracca wants out.
Kozzie wants out
Oliver is a net negative.
Tassie in three years.
Trade all three and load up and get the kids in with Gawn and Viney?
Try and keep the rest

I think there are many other positive flow on effects not just for our forward line if we get Picket and Bolton. I'm not just a little bit excited at the prospect even if we just landed one of the two but if we got both I think I'll be booking my ticket to the GF in March provided Darcy and Cox get through preseason without interruption. Both should be way better in 2025 if they come into the season with a solid fitness base..
Here's what my projected 2025 best 22+sub would look like with Bolton and Picket
B: Walker A.Pearce Draper
HB: Clark Cox Ryan
C: Sharp Young Chapman
HF: Bolton Jackson Freddy
FF: Picket Cyclone Amiss
Followers: Darcy, Serong, Brayshaw
I/C Switta, Sturt, NOD, Wagner
Sub: Erasmus or Johnson
Emergency: Fyfe, Aish, O'Meara, Walters
Explanation
Boltons averaged over 3.5 clearances in recent years. If we got both Picket and Bolton I think we could afford to have him spend 30% of game time onball. Picket could go in the centre square but for less time maybe 3 tines a game. Having both would not only improve our forward line but also our onball options.
Ive got Sturt and Switta in the team (so an extra forward compared to 2024) to allow Jackson, Bolton and Picket to spend time onball. Jackson was a weapon at centre clearances as a mid when used there for brief periods in 2023. While Picket and Bolton in the team we could also afford to let Freddy spend time as a wing which I think is his best position.
With another preseason I think Draper will be too good to not be in the team and I think Chapman is better when he plays in a super attacking role which is why Ive got him on a wing. I also think playing Draper in defence on the oppositions second best tall forward frees up Cox and Ryan to play attacking intercept roles.
NOD's 5 quarters of afl football played late in the year showed what he could add in 2025 so he's currently ahead of both Erasmus and Johnson in my eyes.
I actually like how we could have experienced players fighting to get into the team. I think thats a positive.
Geez I hope we do everything possible to get Picket and Bolton.

9, 17, future 2 for Bolton and 21?
10 and 21 for Kozzie?
If not use the future first and keep our seconds in both years

Have the feeling if those two come in we won’t have any good picks for the next two drafts..
But that at this point doesn’t matter at all. It’s time to win.
I'd think the coach and senior players would still think they're in contention mode. Petracca's whereabouts and/or replacement will be significant factor in it all.
Yeah I really don’t care.
We have two NGA’s next year and one the year after who is looking like a gun.
We can go hell for leather
Then Goodwin’s on the Olivers
Man. Kozzy and Shai...
Feels like some of that ridiculous old-school Freo talent and fun that we've been sorely lacking for a LONG time. I need it, I want it, I'll cry if we don't get it

So we have 4 firsts and two seconds and a future thirdto make all this happen.
Crash and burn Port, crash and burn baby.
What do we need to be left with for the AFL to tick it off?
Trade firsts but need seconds and thirds

Unless they changed the rules, we can't use the F2 and F3 if we use the F1.

Raz could be good for them. Don't like it though.
Macrae could be a decent cheap pick up for them if Trac goes. Not perfect, but is something.
Talk that DeGoey could be used as collateral to get Trac

Certainly if they can't avoid us in the finals, they're no chance.
