Spoiler: 2024 Draft Picks

Sounds like that washing machine the club bought a few years ago.

We had Scotts, that bloke from Sydney and the other bloke, none of whom bothered to read the instructions, used Cold Power in hot water and all of them messed around with the cycles and water levels so no wonder the bloody thing got our knickers in a twist!!!

Yes the F1 was on the table for Bombers 9, Freo's 11 and GC 13, but you don't know the full deals discussed.
You are making an assumption that we undervalued it because only pick 13 was mentioned.
My assumption would be the deal was 13 and one of 23 or 29.

Given that F1 & 13 were the only two picks reported on, I think it's a pretty fair enough assumption. I, like yourself, hope there was more to it. Very well may not have been though.

Well they are the picks in the deal that really matter to journos, they don't really care about 2nd and 3rd round picks.
I know teams generally have to pay a bit of a premium to get picks in this year's draft, but even on points valuing our F1 optimistically as pick 5 (1795 pts) for 13 (1,212 pts) would suggest something else should be involved.
If there wasn't, then we either can't read a points table or really want somebody in that range.
Anyway, it didn't happen and we'll see what happens.
