Rankine's finish to the season was always worth around pick 10, had he done that for the entire season then definitely worth pick 5 which he has now proven he is easily worth and arguably another pick 10 given how he has moved into the midfield.

Phillipou would be a great get, 190cm young bull with exposure at AFL.
Pick 10 a couple of years ago, probably worth about the same now.
Is he a more proven entity than a current top 5? Probably, but we should do everything to trade something else.
Berry was pick 26 (Crouch compensation pick ironically).
We also have Gollant. I wonder if Milera might want to join his cousin? Schoenberg might be on the table? Sholl and Hamil are worth something.
With Keane on another year, if he wants to leave we might get a Collingwood pick, can't be a first though can it?
Wasn't there a rumour that one of the 2023 draft haul wasn't fitting in well (not Curtin)?

If we could trade down with say Gold Coast who are looking to go up or out, probably up given they have a possible pick 1 in 2025, they might look at a trade such as pick 4 and 27 (30 after compensation) for pick 8 and 10 (9 and 11 after compensation).
This equates to us giving up 2687 points for 2737 and Gold Coast get a pick before Leo Lombard - so they would be super keen.
We then use 8 for a sliding Draper and 10 for Phillipou.

1st should be totally off limits...
There's no way we can swap keane for petty... Petty is an upgrade on every way...

One of the podcasts has mentioned that Freo is certainly going to be trying for Warner in 2025 and will look to move one pick into next year (maybe it was Tradies?) - might be drawing a long bow though, and was only their guess!

Depends if the trade gets you Draper and Phillipou. You would have to consider that, even if it feels very unlikely

Even for 2x best 22 players?
Any rumours about us getting Tim English?
Not even a sniff about his management using us to "set the market"...

I hope we haven’t dropped out of the race for Perryman, even though you have to overpay to get him, not having to use any trade capital is massive, him and Cumming next year would be amazing.
Our first pick cannot be on the table and has to be for a midfielder, I’d love for us to use our first next year for another first this year, with a few teams looking to trade their first out in Carlton, BL or GCS there’s a great chance this year before they change all the access rules next year.
If we end up with pick 5 & 10 before a bid for Welsh that would be ideal, but I doubt St Kilda are letting Phillapou go this year no matter the circumstances.

He's going West I believe as in WA not West Melbourne.

Perryman appears to be heading to the Hawks for $800k pa.
We need to be going hard for Cummings.

Well it's West Coast where he is rumoured to go.
Given they're playing Bailey Williams you'd think so

Berry + 2nd round pick for Phillipou + 3rd round pick might be about right?
Phillipou, Welsh and using our Pick 5 on a gun mid this draft - I wouldn't be devastated with.

Doubt Saints go anywhere near that.

If we could turn our 1st into draper and Phillipou, that is start the car and run territory..made out like bandits. I think that to get one of the best mids a drop from 5 might push us out of that range. I'd be looking at bringing in our F1 and looking at trading it with a side looking to trade out to try and get a pick around 8-10 for Phillipou and if needs be, we also include Berry in the deal.
IF we landed Phillipou, Draper and grabbed Welsh and a project ruck late, thats as good a trade / draft hand as we could have hoped in terms of addressing a major need in midfield, bringing in a young ruck to develop and getting Welsh as that next generation forward. A decent FA ruck would have also been a real positive too and maybe Isaac Cumming as a free agent too.

A contracted Phillipou would take a pointy end first rounder you'd think
An uncontracted Berry would only be steak knives.
I doubt we'd give up 5 for Phillipou. And St Kilda's pick is too close to ours for a swap to have any great value.
Can't see how it can get done.

Maybe - but got to start negotiations somewhere... Berry would actually be a solid fit for the Saints lulz aside...

More likely swap of future 1st with a 2nd.
I would be trying to get Marshall too, as would make a huge difference to our midfield set-up... if rumours are true he wants out.
