Having 12 and 14 helps keep Collingwood honest. What we paid for 14 to hawthorn needs to be of similar or more value for Collingwood now to get 13 off GC. And having the extra top 15 pick allows port to pressure Collingwood for more for Houston if that’s what HE wants.

 

[bradfisher14]

Why would Port sweat? Pretty sure they'd prefer to keep Houston...

They want to capitalise on him at his highest value IMO. If they don't act now, they will get much less in 12 months time. See the Joe Daniher to Syd/Bris scenario for reference.

They could just make him play 4 more seasons with them.

OUT: F1 + F2 + 34 + 66
IN: 14 + Lions F2 + 73

OUT: F1 + F2 + 34 + 66
IN: 14 + Lions F2 + 73

When one looks at it this way, it doesn't look great on paper, but if the pundits are correct and the draft this year is solid, 14 may be the next Cripps!

Blues land pick No.14 in huge trade with Hawks

The Hawks and Blues have agreed to a huge pick swaps trade

If Oliver is demanding out of Melbourne..

Hope we’re in the thick of this, players of this calibre don’t come up very often and suits our needs much more than Houston…

We now have a culture as good as Geelong and I’d back us to get Oliver back to his best..

I’d give pick 12 or 14. If Oliver was to take the (media discussed) pay cut and Melbourne are going to pay some of his wage.

Oliver Currently - $1.2m
Pay cut -$200k
Melbourne - $400k

That would mean he would be on our cap for $600k a year… We’d still have flexibility in the future and can still hit the draft this year.

Nope
Sure he was elite but we don’t need another inside midfielder no matter how good he WAS

 

[bigm386]

So we done now?

I recall agresta months ago saying we want to bring in 4 players.

So 12&14 plus the Campos is a great hall

 

[Juice030103]

12 and 14

vs.

12, 19 and 22

12 19 and 22 plus the campos

Make it happen Austin

 

[Aphrodite]

You absolutely nailed it!

It was on Twitter (X) earlier ths morning.

In
If Houston comes to us, a dual AA, elite ball user..

Out
If Houston goes to the Pies, an overpriced 28 year old HBFlanker past his best.

 

[skadoosh]

Strange timing on the pick trade with Haw.. Denver Granger-Barras was seen at the cafe inside Ikon earlier today.

Maybe our baristas make a mean latte

Pies get 13, we have 12 & 14

This is going to be fun

When did the Carringbush get 13

 

[HereComesJuddy]

Straight to the draft thread

 

[BigFrizz36]

12 19 and 22 plus the campos

Make it happen Austin

Most seem to think that there is a big gap from about 15 down (of those that are available ). We would prefer quality over quantity.

Plus getting another list spot might be problematic.

 

[RoyalBlues]

Who would have goodwill and links to Hawthorn and a score to settle with Leppitsch and Collingwood? That would be a great strategic advisor to have right now.

Well i've had the coffee there & I do admit it was good enough to make me want to sign a contract for a few years

 

[Red_man2008]

12 19 and 22 plus the campos

Then on trade 12, 19 and 22 for pick 2 or 3 and a late 3rd and take smillie.

 

[RoyalBlues]

Well I’m not actually but I get what you mean

Front loaded?

Am I the only one that feels like we missed on getting something else back from Hawks in that swap, such as a F3 or a 4th rounder this year?
We traded a F1 and F2 for a current 1st rounder (14). Our F1 could be 14 next year and so we have just handed the Hawks a free 2nd rounder in 2025 with nothing coming back. I realise the talent in this draft is supposedly better than next years and so that may have been a factor, but still feels like the exchange was not balanced.
