Carlton traded for that pick, right? Could have sworn they played a final right after we beat them.

The issue with bottoming out in 2025 is ever rising again. The bottom of the ladder has never been further away from the top.

We wont have a choice this season IMO.

 

[Mowman]

He's not though.

Also, he should not be at Brisbane.

He should be at Brisbane they should have had to pay fair price that’s all

 

[The Punter]

He should be at Brisbane they should have had to pay fair price that’s all

That could only be done by trading for the pick.

 

[stavro#4]

So if we finish bottom 4,with W/Coast,Richmond and North behind us and Richmond having Norths R1 pick how does that drop us back to between Picks 8 &12.

By my reckoning a third of the top rated players listed in this article are either Father son or tied to academy selections

Uwland is a potential #1 pick and he is tied to the suns academy.

So basically we are Furked as far as getting a decent pic if it all turns to poo and we end up near the bottom ?

OWe couldnt control that, we could affect our ladder position. Its like being told the lottery winning ticket is placed between 1 & 7 and we chose 8.

Did you watch Draper yesterday, he will be a star

Riley Onley,Dyson Sharp,Oliver Greeves along with Willem Duursma are rated in AFL's very. early Top 10 that are not and players that suit our needs.
So if we end up with a top4 pick at end of 2025 minor round, more than likely 1 of them will be in RWB even if draft is comprised

Not quite.

LDU is a free agent. So north would get compo if they finished below us.

As would West coast if Oscar Allan left.

So if the ladder finished.

15. Us
16. Eagles
17. North
18. Richmond.

The draft order would likely be.

1. Suns (Uwland academy)
2. Richmond
3. Richmond via norths pick
4. North LDU compo
5. West coast
6. West coast via Allan compo.
7. Us.

Yep and they are another year behind last years crop. Or we trade out of the draft to get a mature midfielder, key defender or another key forward who can stay on the park.

Perhaps we can trade Travaglia to get an early pick to take a midfielder?

We will be constantly playing catch up...

 

[True Believer]

So basically we are Furked as far as getting a decent pic if it all turns to poo and we end up near the bottom ?

We would never do it, but I would love us to have pick 1 in the draft and simply call out the names as we have them ranked, even if it meant that we ended up at pick 5 because of FS and academy links - just to highlight the ridiculous distortion of the draft. Pick 1 gets a $10k bonus or something so clubs never select someone at pick 1 that is tied to a club, even if they rate the kid as the top pick in the draft. They always pick the highest ranked AVAILABLE pick so their kid gets the bonus money and prestige, which further adds to the ridiculous discounts in draft costs to certain teams!!!

Need to finish below west coast and north due to the threat of priority picks for FA

Or, basically until the father-son rule and the academies are abolished.

I hope we do get LDU,but not confident.

God it’s very early and (and very depressing) to be chatting quality draft picks after rd 1

 

[SteeleSaints]

Sorry to burst your bubble Punter but that ain't going to happen.

 

[The Punter]

Sorry to burst your bubble Punter but that ain't going to happen.

You may be right, but I won't shut up about it until it does happen.

 

[Saintos The ITK]

We need to throw a big offer at Ben King. At least that way we should always have at least one of them in the park.
Throw the cheque book at juh tdk sdk and bk.
Stop ****ing around.

 

[Saintos The ITK]

Sorry to burst your bubble Punter but that ain't going to happen.

Yes it will. The day Reiwoldt and Lennys sons become eligible.

 

[The Punter]

Yes it will. The day Reiwoldt and Lennys sons become eligible.

The best part of that will be the rhetorical gymnastics that some would engage in to try and make that the club's fault.

 

[maanco]

I can't believe we traded our 2025 Second round draft pick.

And then we didn't even play Hugh Boxshall in round 1.

 

[stavro#4]

God it’s very early and (and very depressing) to be chatting quality draft picks after rd 1

The discussion was around how the top end of the draft is shaping up early doors vs the compromised nature

 

[CaptainRisky]

Or, basically until the father-son rule and the academies are abolished.

Academies are just total BS , I read an article where ( Don't quote me ) GCS have around 1500 kids in their academies in central and Nth Queensland from ages 13-19 . HTF are you suppose to compete with that .
I agree FS needs to be looked at but christ i will be dirty waiting all these years for the young Roo's and then we miss out on them if that happens

 

[CaptainRisky]

I hope we do get LDU,but not confident.

I cant see any of the big names thrown around out there coming to us , we are more like the retirement village

 

[longtimesaint]

I get frustrated watching Melbourne with Bowey playing for them.
Why didn’t Brett play enough games ?
He would be the perfect replacement for Webster.

 

[thehunterclarkhill]

Yes it will. The day Reiwoldt and Lennys sons become eligible.

speaking of Lenny's son, was spewing we didn't draft Lindsay (no knock on the T's of course). He looks like a left-footed Lenny, ferocious and composed in the clinches and very classy on the outside. dees have a beauty on their hands there.
