Spoiler: 2024 Draft Order

 

[dank420_]

pick 9 was a crap player anyway delist

 

[eth-dog]

Zero chance we get that haul on draft night.

 

[Milanista28]

28+31 to Pies for 52+55+F2nd+F3rd?

 

[Howard Moon]

So does the stringer pick even matter?

 

[Bjchan13]

In an deep and even draft i would be happy with Kako, a few picks in the 30-50 range and then Nguyen. Considering we have Melbournes F1, and had no 3rd or 4th rounders to begin with. Stringer and Laverde if they've decided to go can help improve our hand over the next few days too. Rosa off to a good start in my opinion.

 

[DonsRule]

So does the stringer pick even matter?

Nope. Pick 9 is worth 1489

The picks we are getting in are worth 1747.

So that more than covers Kako,

 

[eth-dog]

Flip the tactic for Stringer and go for their F2.

 

[eth-dog]

This is the scenario where they win the flag and we win the spoon. I think we made the right call

 

[Bunk Moreland]

If Port like the offer from North for Houston and believe if push come to shove Dan would eventually agree to join North why would Port blink and take less from Pies or Blues.

I find this trade fascinating.

Think it would just about be over the line already if Houston was willing to go there.

He doesn’t want to go to North and his management were floating last week that he’d just stay at Port.

Red herring for mine… North have a crack but can’t land him or anybody else in demand.

He’ll find his way to Carlton or Collingwood.

 

[naraku]

Zero chance we get that haul on draft night.

Actually, that is a great haul for us.


Anyone think Melbourne might try to usurp Houston deal?

Port would walk Dan to the airport for #9.

 

[JT_the_Man]

Would’ve preferred a top 10 pick this year than a first next year but it’s whatever I guess. I get it.

 

[Bunk Moreland]

The highlight here is probably the reply… “Are your parents related?”

 

[Milanista28]

Cats out 17+38+57+F2nd
Dogs out Smith+48
Dons out 28+31

Cats in Smith+31
Dogs in 17+28
Dons in 38+48+57+F2nd

 

[footyfanatic111]

With all those extra picks now making up the difference for a bid, and as others have mentioned 28 and 31 now beneficial to us to be traded out.

Do we have another swing at a maginness? Late
Offer hawks 28. They may not bite but it would a solid deal for them I think, we have now options with 2x 2nd rounders this year for any players that may arise late in the draft. If hawks want back into this draft after trading their 14 to Carlton I’m sure we would be open to listening

[Jobe Watson]

Damn, I would've much preferred to cheer on North's demise next year than Melbourne's.

 

[DonsRule]

And its done

 

[Milanista28]

Good move, gives Rosa options.

 

[Petrify]

There's 4 things we're trying to achieve with this trade:

1. Get out of pick 9 in case it gets absorbed by Kako bid
2. Get enough points for Kako bid
3. Have extra to try trade back into first round after Kako gets bid on
4. Load up on next year as we're going to offer 3 first rounders and $2m/year for 10 years for Harley Reid

I like it a lot

 

[thebigboy]

The highlight here is probably the reply… “Are your parents related?”

Stop it. Don't play with my emotions like this! I get enough of that shit from March - August

 

[Red Black and Blue]

If the bid for Kako comes at 10, the discount drops it to about 1000 points required which can be covered 28 and 40. We could trade out a second rounder for future second on draft night.

 

[TheGreatBarryB]

Like the deal but can’t see why teams won’t bid early now for Kako as they know there’s no way we’re going to pass.

 

[bombreys]

Bit of a worry for this year. So we're going to be drafting Kako and maybe a couple of picks in the 50's/60's, is that correct?

Not a great result really, especially for a team finishing 11th that's supposed to be rebuilding.

Reality is what reality is. Likely keep two picks in the 40's. We got lemons, make lemonade.

 

[JayJ20]

Wow Melbourne were pretty generous there.

 

[mIKe9441]

Is this the first time we've held a future first pick from another team?
