Spoiler: 2024 Draft Order

Will be glad when the new rules come in and all this pick strade shuffle is gone. Make sides pay with their first round pick if that is the case and take out the scenario of getting a free kick with a pick before the bid. Pay the price and work out a formula for when the points exceed the draft pick the club holds.
Someone bids on you F/S or academy player then it costs you the pick in whatever round it is and your pick in the next round goes to the end of the line if the points exceed the points of the first round pick used to match. Or something.
Just get rid of the play where clubs are doing an end run to gain an extra first round player.

Adjusting the points and making the discount only 10% will go a huge way towards ending the stockpiling of late picks.

Its very little change

Teams use to stock pile 3rd rounders, that wont change too much, they may need a 2nd aswell due to the reduction in pick value

It should be 0%

Not hearing a lot about Shiel being traded now after a couple of initial stories that GWS may have some interest. Pretty sure Cal said in the last day or two he expects Shiel to be with us next year.

GWS must not be that interested

I wouldnt totally be against an early delist

Still would want atleast an F3, 46(via crows) and 74

Why would we delist Shiel?

I’m totally open to trading him but if that doesn’t happen then I still have him well and truly best 22. He’s ahead of Parish for me.

I agree it should be zero but it is still significantly different when you also adjust for the new points picks.

This year pick #1 can be paid for with picks #20, 30, #39 and #40.

Next year you would need to use all those picks and also add #14.

It is a huge difference.

And going further down the draft still makes it harder as well.

Let's say Kako is bid on at 10. We would need to use our 31 plus pick 35.

Next year we would need our 31 but would need 21 to match points.

Or even just as an injury back up. Why would we just flush that amount of cash down the toilet when he still has some utility.

Sorry for invading your forum but just asking a question on your thoughts.

If the Pies offered F1 and 1401 draft points this year ( Current pick 9 is 1469)

Would you trade pick 9 and a F3 ?

Obviously based on if you think Kako gets bid on before pick 9.

Still leaves you with pick 31 / Kako and pies F1 Guaranteed vs maybe losing Pick 9 for Kako.

As Essendon's list manager I think that's an ok deal but you could sharpen it up a bit

 

[rusman]

Yeh I rate pies still. Think they had a down year but could easily bounce back next year, not a ff I would target.

Maybe…

given the furor around this draft and what other teams are paying potentially trading pick 9 (which will likely be 11 or 12) for a late first and points when points are easy to get this year. It just feels like unders given your likely jump back up the ladder

It would be a deal that is around something they would look at if we where going before the draft but I still think the play is hold 9 until draft night and see where the bid lands. No bid then look to trade late picks if they have not already been done or if the bid comes then trade out then as there will be a deal to be done. The only thing we need to sort before draft night is enough point to cover most of the points we need on the night. We will get a F1 if we want to trade out on the night. There will be teams that will want in. The only way I am trading out before hand is if someone is that keen that they offer way overs.

 

[nipst@r]

Really just want kako without using/loosing a first on him. How we do that is up to Rosa.

would prefer a small or tall fwd prospect instead of late pick but if need those picks for points all good.

The media is regurgitating the Kamil Yucel story again, in case nobody read it the first time. Essentially the same story but slap a new date on the top and pretend it's new.

I don't see the issue, He has served his time.

Don't the AFL believe people can Rehabilitated?
