Rubbish, Houston was as good as done at Melbourne until Trac lit the bonfire

No it wasn’t as good as done - Melbourne were always willing to pay more in draft capital though

 

[Its an amigo!]

Touted GCS trade is lose 13, 26, Luko, and Atkins, get F1 (PA), F1 (Coll) and Noble?

That is a shocking trade if true. Absolutely shocking.

Imagine having 5-6 clubs at one stage in a bidding war for pick 13 and coming out of it with Collingwood's future first and Noble.

 

[Wickzki]

People are too caught up making this a pissing contest with Collingwood and making out we 'lost' the trade.

We didn't lose anything - we had a plan and stuck to it. We wanted him but at the right price.!

Agree. If it wasn't Collingwood we probably wouldn't give two shits about it.

Better than well.

cant see it

Port supporters are ropable

 

[Blue since 72]

Let's see what this push for pick 3 looks like

If we got it who do you think Austin will pick?

 

[VainGlorious]

Travaglia + Berry
Campo Twins

Sign TDK
Chuck the chequebook at SDK end of 2025

Pick up Cody Walker in 2026

Win the next 3 flags

 

[Ken Navies]

Ken ****off….

Harsh..

 

[Zlatan]

I wonder how we’d be any closer to a premiership by addressing…

1. One-paced midfield
2. Small forward lack of contribution
3. Missing one KPD

…by getting a half back flanker

Just don't see the need to take 4 kids.... and the other Irish kid too. Five!

I'm sure the Campo boys will become good to very good players.... in a few years!

Oh, I'd be swinging hard at Bailey Smith....

Fitness is our key

Next year all being well we get a fit Docherty, Silvagni, Saad, Boyd, TDK, Cerra, Walsh, Williams. Motlop, Durdin, Fogarty. Another pre season into Cincotta Cowan Wilson Ollie Lord Moir Binns O'Keefe

So many areas we should be so much better.

Names like Campo twins and other early picks don't need to step up next year BUT if they do it's even better

Houston is ONE player. We have many many possible "recruits" that make us better in 2025

 

[CarmenSandiego]

I'm not fussed if we land Houston or not but I really don't want him going to our biggest rivals who will be competing for a top 4 spot with us. Have a feeling he will improve them a fair bit.

Is a shame.

 

[zeeCFC]

If we got it who do you think Austin will pick?

Has to be one of Finn OSullivan, Sid Draper and Sam Lalor. Maybe Murphy Reid

 

[Blue By Blood]

Port have done well

So the nuts and bolts of it are they’ve got 13 + 29 + Richards for Houston and given up a F1 for Luko and Atkins?

If that’s the case, they’ve done pretty well considering they were never going to get two 1st round picks outright despite that being their demand. That’s more than we would have offered for Houston. A F1 for Luko is about right also in what is being touted as a weaker draft. Atkins is merely a salty dump and to improve the seconds. I don’t see their outrage on that personally. He clearly didn’t want North and that removed any significant leverage they had.

I think we get pick 3 now. Odds shortening considerably. Reckon it will be done by tomorrow morning.

as much as I wanted Houston, I assume this is the reason we are going to the draft. this is a paper-thin list of young talent right there comparative to others.

Would like to think we can get over teams like Pies & Hawks next season who will both add important piece's to already strong teams….

Hopefully our draft strategy addresses areas of need also!!

Hooo boy.

That’s great news EP, do you think both Owies & Carrol are involved ??

[ESKIE]

This is good …..

 

[Foucault1989]

I'm surprised we are in contention for pick 3 with what we're offering.

I wouldn't be shocked if we head to the draft with 12 + 14

 

[Arr0w]

If we got it who do you think Austin will pick?

Reports are Lalor or O'Sullivan, but I prefer we look at 1 of Lalor, Draper or Smith

 

[Stamos]

It's really nice to have you back EP

 

[ronpingwins]

wtf. Surely West Coast get more than 12 and 14?

 

[ESKIE]

Draper looks great
