Review 2024 National Draft Thread Part Deux - Draft Picks: 2 (FOS), 27(MWHITLOCK), 62 (R4),76 (R5)

[Jay-Z]

Think we just took the worst trade in history title off Freo. Brady should be sacked

 

[chickenonachain]

Just when you think we can’t make any more bad decisions what do we do fmd

 

[stavro#4]

Umm, no you couldn’t! No club wanted to do that trade.

Yeah but this was more fun

We wanted FOS. So did the Saints.

I think if I say what I’m really thinking it might get me banned guys.

So I’ll just say - I feel sorry for you. That might be the worst trade I’ve ever seen

 

[winalotroos]

Time will tell if this is a good trade or not what we do know we needed a good Full Forward

 

[amaz199]

Not just Brady. Big team in that room to make and act on decisions, and they must have been very keen. It’s ballsy.

100%. Risky move but if it pays off then we can live with it.

 

[CBSlogger]

You'd think our F2 + F3 would have got it done.

Remarkable.

 

[Kangaroos4eva]

lol.

You realize our F1 might avoid a lot of the bids?

The picks we traded for are the compromised ones

Not necessarily. Could easily be a number of early bids.

 

[The Lone Latic]

Well in better news 20 for ccj now isnt our worst trade in the last 5 years....

This is true. Brady at the wheel, driving the list and draft hand off the cliff

 

[ChopChopDigDig]

Do we have a FS that might go first round next year?

 

[My Left Foote]

BUMP

The Tigers and the Saints melts are all time but until we see what we do with our F1 I'd be holding fire on the schadenfreude.

 

[giantroo]

 

[Ball Dont Lie]

Sorry did we just trade what will most like be pick 3 for pick 27 and at best 25?

 

[Ashley B]

We better be calling him The Great Matt Whitlock by round 1 next yr Gonzo lol

 

[travelli]

FRom pick 8? God we are desperate. Brady might never work in football again.

 

[Ligma]

Matt will win rising star

 

[fusion]

27 & 19 for hopefully 10 plus isn’t horrendous - especially if Whitlock is good.

Gee i hope he is.
Richmond's round 2 this year is 28. If we've traded pick 3 for 27 this year and 28 next year and he's no good then we are going to be waiting a long time.

 

[Ichiro #51]

Has to be done.

My favourite all time gif:

27 & 19 for hopefully 10 plus isn’t horrendous - especially if Whitlock is good.

The problem here is that the margin for error is zero.

Zero.

Anything less than a Hawthorn style year is a ****ing disaster that will set us back.

 

[Boozeroo]

Maybe the club don't rate any tall forwards/defenders for the first round 2025.

 

[SWMD]

Struggling with this. Very much struggling.

I just posted I wasnt going to lose the FOS high. It's gone. Fmd.

 

[GoRoos2023]

Surely at spending 2 on Tauru or Faull is better than spending a F1 on pick 28 and a second round pick lol.

 

[Harvey Manfrenjensenden]

Well that was better than watching Cobra Kai

 

[kool kangas]

His brother looks devo hahaha

Wouldnt be laughing yet Ligma, Brady still has 2 F2nds and F3rd and F4th to play with and Jack Whitlock might be who he wants next..

THIS!!!

Let’s now invest into the million top [emoji[emoji6][emoji6]] picks we’ve selected in the last [emoji6] years.

North time is NOW!!!!

You’d think we have our midfield sorted.

We have the talls now, and may get another tomorrow

From next year onwards it’s picking the gaps in areas that aren’t of high value draft wise anyway.

 

[juss]

27 & 19 for hopefully 10 plus isn’t horrendous - especially if Whitlock is good.

It wouldn't be 19, after a few Academy / FS picks next year maybe 21-22 odd?

Yes we're hoping for a top 10 pick, if we snag a top 5-8 you've been destroyed, it's always the gamble though
