Review 2024 National Draft Thread Part Deux - Welcome FOS, M.Whitlock, L.Urquhart & River Stevens

[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.

[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.

 

[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

 

[kingcarey1]

Ah so this is what it’s like to be bent over.

 

[tales129]

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

They were pretty happy with themselves too

 

[koshari]

Ok just when I think Brady can't do anything stupider, he manages this trade. A potential top 5 pick for 27 and a pick in the 20s.... if F1 was going to go and you get 27/28 I kinda get that but we backed ourselves into a corner after trade week and we just continue to cave on trades, especially with Richmond. Like, what kind of incriminating photos do they have to continue to make us /Brady roll over?

Ffs, anyway welcome Matt, hopefully he's the decent one of the brothers

Can only imagine what the tiggers ringtone on their trade phone is when brady calls...

Possibly crusty the clowns rendition on "bring in the clowns"

Reading the melts and bedwetters on this forum. As if they are some type of expert, and what a player is worth, and what trades get the pick. I think laughable reading some of these comments
