Why would Powa do that, they'd be crazy?

GC pick 12 is still sitting there.
Carlton keep 11 and give up F1
Port get Luko and give up F1 - and get GC 12

I suspect Port get another pick in that scenario as well.
GC don’t want pick 12 and can’t possibly see media reports of Noble for pick 12 coming to fruition. Looney tunes stuff

They might need that pick 12 to get Lombard over the line though?

port just also get owies
 
Twomey sounding a lot less confident than last week that we'll just hand over 25 for ANB.
Going with such certainty on that 2 weeks out from trade period always seemed an odd hill to die on. Clubs can come to tentative agreements before trade period, but there is never certainty it plays out that way if other options pop up (e.g. Peatling).

Owies is better than most of their other small forwards so it's not a bad thing.
Is he though?

Wouldn't want to be Tom Anastopolous or Lachie Charleson playing the small forward role in Port's diabolical SANFL team.

Poor buggers are set up to fail.

4 wins 14 losses most losses by big numbers and a percentage of 40 odd percent.
 
Twomey also just said (yes, I'm stupid enough to be listening) that we're interested in Pick 12. I like this. Regardless of the outcome, you can't say we're not being aggressive.
My priorities for this offseason have been :

Pick 4 on a mid
Cumming via free agency
A ruckman

If we can land pick 12 we'd be well placed for dodson (or a draft slider).
