You mean they will BUY our picks?
Never thought I'd see Quairading such a topic of discussion on a footy forum
This little atheist is praying hard too...
Another day of this I'm crawling up the stations of the cross!

They can push him all they want but he won't want to go to a basket case that is seeing the best players wanting to jump ship.
Yeh definitely not getting my hopes up. Is probably stays or heads to port
Coach
Nope, doesn't fit my narrative for dramatic affect.
But seriously I got the impression the player was contracted.

You'd imagine if we got kozi and Bolton, Emmett will be Gonski
Out of contract
Article also has Odin Jones, Stanley, Tabs, Noddy, Kuek, Corbett are OOC
Of those, for me, noddy and Stanley are worth extending, possibly Kuek
Corbett and Tabs are behind Voss

He does but he would become the least of the oppositions worries and be running free. Would be deadly.
He only moved to SA to improve his footy as a teenager under guidance from Uncle Byron. Not sure he's got much of a network there other than that.
His closest and most extended family network is in WA, where he pretty much grew up. He has said before, this is where he feels closest to family.
I would think if it his family reasons driving the move, WA would be the most likely destination.
You’d think we would target only one of those 2, and use the situation to better
negotiations between Tigers, Dees. Play one against the other and see which club
buckles first.
Guaranteed that if it was possible to get both that is would shake another player from our club. Salary cap issues, and history has proven this to be true with best
22 players short changed and leaving for more coin.

Haven't been here much since the weekend. What's the vibe on the Bolton/Pickett combo? Surely we're in the box seat to grab both and still take either Port's first or St Kilda's second to the draft. Am I being too optimistic?
Too optimistic.
I think it's highly likely our first pick in this draft will be beyond 30. We'll probably get some of the Tigers late junk back with whatever we give them.
Some super popping of collars required there.
(I reckon the most odds on result for Pickett is to stay put. If it's genuinely family reasons behind the move then WA is the most likely destination, would think it would consume all 3 first rounders to get them both.)

Are you sure it was him?

I'd happily pay the 3 firsts to get them both. Instantly turns our biggest list deficiency into a strength.

Any chance 9 and 10 for Bolton and 29?

I’d happily pay the 4.
Is Kozzie Pickett a touch overrated?
I’ve watched him a lot and while he is a class player, he’s got a few flaws too.
His goal kicking accuracy can be horrible at times. He treads a fine line on the discipline front too (I actually don’t mind this brute physicality though as we have too many soft players in our B22 in my view relative to most other teams).
His pressure and ground level game is elite for sure but I’ve seen him kick some seriously momentum sapping behinds and even out on the fulls over the last couple of years in big games.
Bolton is a classier player for mine.
However our small forwards are so bad that getting either or both is a massive improvement.

Does that 29 turn into 35~ on draft night?
I'd hate to see 9+10 gone unless tigers paid a significant part of the Bolton contract, every year left of his agreement with Tigers

He is the Hayden Ballantyne we have been missing for way too long now.
Every player has flaws. If you're looking for goal accuracy, Bolton is probably the least accurate of the pair.
