You’re probably correct, but none of GC’s plans happen unless they move Luko, so playing it tough could pay off. Unfortunately our recent history wouldn’t give you confidence that we will play it that way.I think pick 6 goes to Richmond sadly.

Rob is way worse a kick, the worst in the game.have you seen sam draper kick? wtf? skills are you kidding. he makes ROB look like dawson when kicking.
I would call Drapers kick elite for a ruck. His 55 meter lace out bullett to Wright in the first quarter against us was possibly the best kick by a ruckman I’ve ever seen. We must see very different things.have you seen sam draper kick? wtf? skills are you kidding. he makes ROB look like dawson when kicking.
His set shots leave a bit to be desired, but still miles better than ROB.I would call Drapers kick elite for a ruck. His 55 meter lace out bullett to Wright in the first quarter against us was possibly the best kick by a ruckman I’ve ever seen. We must see very different things.
Anyway, we’ll see next year.
In fairness, the "wanting to get a good deal for GC" was speculation from Swan97, not his/her source (which he/ she was pretty clear about).So the guy getting pushed out by a club and coach, and getting stiffed on the most valuable 2 years of a back ended contract by that club, wants "the best deal" for that club.
Sounds legit
Me tooWould people be happy giving up future 1st and 2024 pick 25 for pick 12 and Luko?
I would.
ROB is the worst kick in the game and Draper is worseRob is way worse a kick, the worst in the game.
Wasn’t it reported we were into looking at that deal, but Bowes didn’t want to come here?Geelong get the player and pick 7.
We will give up pick 7 to get the player.
The difference between a competent club and an incompetent one.
I have some vague memory that Dangerfield struck a friendship with him and that they were talking to each other most of the yearWasn’t it reported we were into looking at that deal, but Bowes didn’t want to come here?
It does make you incredibly jealous of Geelong’s success and thus the perks that come with it (destination club etc)

ROB is the worst kick in the game and Draper is worse
50.8% ain't elite in anyone's language. no argument he's not a better kick than Reilly but Elite he's not, far from it.I would call Drapers kick elite for a ruck.

Still need a long term replacement but I can see ROB having a good 2025 as it’s his contract year.How much will Sam Draper cost?
I understand the idea of trading in a ruck but that means busted arse RoB cruises through another year. You can see the thought process ' ha Strachan to replace me - they wish '
Are we still talking about Draper?Goodness, you must see something totally different to me. His skills, power and athleticism are off the charts. Plenty of injury that is a knock, but his potential to team with Tillthorpe as a ruck forward tandem is incredibly enticing for me.
Why do you think that about Luko?You’re probably correct, but none of GC’s plans happen unless they move Luko, so playing it tough could pay off. Unfortunately our recent history wouldn’t give you confidence that we will play it that way.
And GC need to take some of Luko's salary as well. $1m? ifs too much for Luko.

Any stats to back that up?ROB is the worst kick in the game and Draper is worse
I would argue that drapers turnovers are worse than ROBs despite the 48 to 50% KEfficiency. They are both horrendous50.8% ain't elite in anyone's language. no argument he's not a better kick than Reilly but Elite he's not, far from it.
Tim English might approach the elite level for kicking with rucks, but then again he's not a tap ruckman's bootlace.
I call BS it's not a factor.This is just an assumption, there is no intel or reports to validate this theory
GC have been vocal about they are happy for Luko to stay if the right deal can’t get done
Salary dump is not a factor in this trade

why would you move him on other than that with two years on his deal?This is just an assumption, there is no intel or reports to validate this theory

Any f/s in next years draft ?why would you move him on other than that with two years on his deal?
they dont say players can shop around of they want them to stay. have you ever heard of that before?
having said that I still believe we will cough up F1.
Better get something back as well especially taking on $2M of their salary cap then hope with a much easier draw instead of what ended up as the hardest draw this year, we just miss out on the 8 next year and Nicks get sacked.why would you move him on other than that with two years on his deal?
