They would call out bluff if we are too greedy. So an F3 would be enough for them to burn to definitely secure Draper
Agree. What’s the worst case scenario if they called our bluff…ending up with Smith at #4? We don’t have a lot of leverage tbh.

If fact Adelaide should come out and say they’d be equally excited at the prospect of Draper, Smith, Lalor or Finn being available at #4.

Pick 38 is a lovely little conundrum.

It is unavoidably tied to Ben Camporeale.

If a bid comes before or after the pick will change our draft night (night 2 obviously)

So what are the scenarios?

Well right now pick 38 is worth 465 points

(38 is where it will stay as 4 picks before will go to on bids and 4 picks before will be added for bids)

That alone matches a bid at pick 32, so a nice little bit of insurance against a team who bids early.

If a bid is earlier, we can manage a match until about 20.

Before trading in 38, we could manage a bid until pick 44 without going into deficit.

So 38 will be used to match a bid unless that comes after about 32, when I assume we will have some trades for points lined up to preserve 4 National Draft picks.

Something like 38 for 46 and 65 with Essendon to help them get up a bit in the order.

How about if we get to 38 and Ben has not been bid on?

Well I think the club would be comfortable matching a bid after this so will probably take the pick.

Who is available around here?

Probably a lot of talls.

Clancy Dennis, Noah Mraz, James Barrat etc.

Huge fan but his athletic profile won’t be what we are after. I’m sure we will draft Draper and bring another average ball user into the squad alongside the campo twins who can’t kick over a jam tin.
This is a solid melt over absolutely nothing. 👏
