It’s not that bad a suggestion.

Pick 2 for Pick 9 and a Pick next year that could be anywhere from 9-18.

If you were able to get a deal like the Houston one done using that future first from the Bombers it looks like a great trade.

Essentially Pick 2 for Pick 9 and Houston. Pick 2 just isn’t as valuable this year with such an even spread across the top end of the draft. Also if we hold 2 you would think we are committing to another midfielder?

If it’s the Bombers wanting Pick 2, it’s to get ahead of a Kako bid, so you would be asking for a premium from them, so maybe some pick swaps to get more our way?

Disagree. It drops us way too far back, needs to be a cut of point and that Gold Coast's pick 6 for me. Yes it's an even draft but at pick 9 we will miss out on the best midfielders along with Armstrong, Tauru etc.

 

[The Nostradamus]

Nostra, you were doing so well, first poor post of the trade period.

What 2 top 10 picks for a pick 2?

Pretty similar to splitting pick 2 for pick 6 and 13

What 2 top 10 picks for a pick 2?

If we're gonna trade pick 2 we need to still have access to the better players in this draft don't we?

 

[Disco Dew]

Gold Coast have amazing production line via Academy - draft currency isn't as valuable to them for acquiring 18 year old talent.

Its better deployed acquiring seasoned talent, which comes at a premium.

Tldr if you had a golden goose laying solid 24 carat eggs in the backyard, you'd piss your pay away too.

Gold Coast shouldn’t be given draft picks…

I believe Rawlings has stated before that they are prepared to trade down by a couple of positions, so pick 6 and below.

I’m happy to take Shanahan with 9

I’ve got tauru around there also

 

[The Warlord]

Jeez when even the dud Giants don't want to head down to Tulla any more.

 

[Shinboner Supremacy]

Whats your 10???

 

[Better Loosen Up]

Offer up pick two, that should about do it where Port are not interested in future picks

Told you guys already Bevo, you need to get pick 2 off the brain. It ain't happening and no amount of wishing will make it happen.

As senseless as Rioli for 6 and some seems, this trade is still miles more palatable than the Bowes deal.

 

[The Warlord]

Indeed, why would Gold Coast give a hoot about draft picks in the main draft when they've got an unregulated pipeline of academy players

Real talk the Gold Coast Academy is already far more valuable than Sydney's, if for the simple facts that lots of people from Victorian and elsewhere around Australia (Jed Walter etc) move to the Gold Coast already inculcated into footy.

I can't remember if it was one of the reforms agreed to next year or one the clubs want (which will come in) but GC will be limited to one Academy player per round very soon.

Regardless of the situation you’re in you still need to maximise the value of every pick and trade.
If GC had of they’d be in a better position than they’re currently in.

 

[The Nostradamus]

Whats your 10???

I’ll do a 13 to give a live top 10 cos it includes 3 players who are father son or academy

Ashcroft
Smillie
FOS
Jagga
Lalor
Draper
Shanahan
Armstrong
Kako
Reid
Lombard
Tauru
Langford

 

[Tiberius]

What’s the highest pick or quality player gc have traded to one of the smaller 4 clubs in Melbourne

Tom Hickey?
It's definitely May, but the question remains pertinent.

100%. Their cavalier approach to draft picks is evidence that their academy concessions need to be reigned in.

It’s all well and good for them to throw the picks away but it makes a mockery of the system that the other clubs have to live with.

It all depends on what the club is targeting?

Agree at Pick 9 you aren’t getting one of the top rated mids (do we want another mid?) and most likely not Armstrong, but Tauru is a possibility.

They are though - for them pick 6 is far more valuable as currency for trading for experienced players than it is selecting 18 year old from the draft pool

It's a good point.

But really, how stupid are the people running the club to think they can waste draft picks, when they have failed to make the top 8 in their entire existence.

 

[Farthers]

Surely we can provide a better deal to GC if they are just giving away picks.

 

[Roosurgence]

If we're gonna trade pick 2 we need to still have access to the better players in this draft don't we?

Given what is touted to be an even draft, I think you will find you are going to get a very good prospect in the top 10.

Pick 2 just doesn’t have the value this year with so many options available in the top 10 and no standouts.

And this is a good counter point ...
