Massive positive.

Playing for the mighty Sharks adds 1000 aura

It’s debatable based on who we draft or how we use that pick.

8 + 32 for 15+16+21 could potentially be considered a win aswell.

Unless there is someone we really love at 8 then I would do that.

Gives us 4 first round picks in an even draft.

Pegging is one thing but CBT is one kink that's a definite no no

It’s not surprising that the Crows board will target NWM. He’s from SA and he’s a star.

It’s up to us to lock the lad up early. Offer him a long term deal. Front load it if necessary.

It’s been commented that he has now settled in Melbourne and has laid down some roots in his life here. He also seems to be very happy at the club with a young group developing together.

It’s a predatory competition. We should prioritise the long term re-contracting of NWM, Phillipou and Wilson.

We need to lock NWM in a dungeon and only let him out to sign a lengthy contract extension and game day.

Lombard will be bud on in the top 10 I'm predicting.

Edit: why did I say "bid" with a NZ accent?

Because your post was choice, bro.

The aim is to improve our list through the draft.

We've been bringing in bog average players for 10 years and it's got us nowhere. We finally have a good core of kids coming through to build around.

Agree. You can't have your cake and eat it too. Obviously, unless you can land free agents you have to spend draft capital to improve your list through the trade period. We've stated for months that we were intending to hit the draft this year.

Accordingly, we were never seriously in the mix for guys like Houston, even Kemp. We had decided to sit on our hands during this trade period. I have no problem with that.

Pundits rating each clubs position after the trade period make me laugh. It's not something you can do until the draft is over. Even then you can't do it properly for a couple of years.

For example who won the Tim Kelly trade from Geelong to the Eagles? Kelly was in the best 10 players in the comp when he was traded but cost the Eagles 4 good picks. Given how sh.it they've become did they sell their future for little gain?

Decent numbers.

 

[sauce_head]

Who led our ruck division the following year?

Ah, of course, Billy Longer.

I'd pushed all this out of my brain.

Should have been Hickey.

His stats look good will search to see if there is any footage available of him.

Link of some small snippets. Has a really good leap and from what I saw looks like a cross between Stanley & Blicavs.

Sidelined by injury but yes, he was first fiddle

8 + 32 + F2

For

15+16+21

Made on draft night on the clock for P7

Have thought the same thing, I think it works for both parties. Would prefer a smaller slide with Richmond's 10/11 + 18/20, but just to explore this some more...

Very interested to see what they do with Josh Fahey. AFAIK they only have 4 free list spots and he's the only player without a contract, but also has a six-match ban hanging over his head.

Delist and they can take 15,16,21,37,56 to the draft. 74 lost to the ether. Will get smashed for hanging him out to dry.

Retain and they can only take 15,16,21,37, and need to consolidate picks beforehand or shift into the future.

Cats/Dogs are the only clubs that might realistically be willing to offer an F1 for 15 or 16, but they could end up very late firsts in a heavily compromised first round - would the Giants accept?

37 feels a bit late for someone to trade for an F2 and 21 is far too early (unless it's Richmond, but they are hardly short on picks), so they might need to get creative if they are the picks they try to shift.

Seems like the best move for them will be to trade up, and I think 8 will be the best pick on the table. We should haggle the F2 down to an F3, or get their F3 back, as it might have to be done before the draft order is locked, and not on the clock (when more generous offers may have come).

Also would live trade 16 to Essendon for their F1, post Kako. That's gonna be a top 5 pick IMO. Still can't believe this is allowed from Essendon's POV but Cal seemed to indicate it is.

Beat me to it , was looking at ruck stats at WAFL level and he stood out as someone who could win a hit out and still get possessions around the ground.

Fair improvement this year was a reserves player before halfway through the year.

Stumbled across the article , Geelong also interested.

I dont think we will have enough list spots to take 4 picks before any academy bid.

I'd like to see him offered the same kind of contract Max King has been offered. From performance so far, NWM is ahead of Max and I'd be very happy to lock away for as long as possible. Potential AA.

How much extra time do we get after taking pick 7 and possibly doing a deal with 8?
Assume we would have put plenty of feelers out to Tigers and GWS beforehand and if we don’t get someone on our wanted list at 8 would bring in the split then.

Why?

We didn’t land Kemp and we had prior aspirations to trade In.

Pretty sure we can.

We will after we delist the 4 uncontracted players plus Crouch.

Sobering, but very valid post. Hopefully RL & Enright can work some magic with our Battle sized hole back there.

Didn't you hear?

We've literally got an "AFL star" replacement

I'd happily give Nas, Pou and Darce 6 year contracts. Build a list around those 3 (and King).

Personally wouldn't be surprised if we looked at him, I see him as pretty similar to Cordy in quality tho
