They must be confident now a bid wont come at 1, so either 2-4, depending on GWS if they keep their pick who if they do, bid first.
It’s rumoured NM informed us they won’t be bidding on Nick Daicos. Nice goodwill building.
Pies don't have the Suns' future 4th. Their other future is Brisbane's 3rd. Which probably won't be far away from the Suns' 4th...
North want pick 1.
Just no chance this could have happened. North would not have let Collingwood make an open selection and then take Daicos
I'm 50/50 on this.
More likely they'd have done a trade. Would have had Collingwood a bit over the barrel. Switch #1 for #2 and get something juicy back. The other possibility is Collingwood would have traded #2 for an (expected) high pick in 2022.
OK. So, it's probably up to Richmond then I'd say. Maybe Geelong for a late 20s/early 30s pick.
You're probably right. But they should be looking at this draft as 4 (minimum) quality players to add to their list.
Because of the lack of footy, I don't think any player is guaranteed to be a star. outside the top 10, Those you pick up late could end up being good players because of the lack of footy they have played.
Not sure why this argument keeps coming up, it makes little sense. If Collingwood had pick 2 and North bid on Daicos there is every chance Collingwood don't match and take JHF instead. North would just pick whoever they think is the better player.
0% chance pies dont match, pick 2 or not. You don't let a star and the best kid in victoria go to a rival when you have the chance to get him. We can speculate what may or may not have happned if we had that pick, but it's furtile. Things are the way they are, and I think both clubs would be pretty happy.
I'm sure you guys are happy, you are getting a gun. But if we bid and you rated JHF higher why would you match? It makes no sense. This argument that keeps popping up just seems like post-justification of one of worse trades of recent times.
Why would we match? Because he is a gun FS. You don't not match a top 3 player just because it may be 50/50 between 1 and 2. The gap is very very small, pretty even really.
And you guys could justify trading down if we bid to get Daicos and someone else later in the first round - which makes sense if you rate them equally. But from our point of view, we gain nothing from bidding on Daicos but risk losing the player we rate higher.
Exactly, clubs don't bid for no reason. I think we can take it to the bank there will be no bid. Clubs will take fantastic players, and we will see where their futures takes them.
We would have at least ended up trading pick 2 for a 2022 1st rounder to a team like North, Hawthorn or Adelaide. So we would have had 2 top 6 selections in 2022.
We would have matched Daicos but with later picks after we traded out pick 2 for a future 1st. Why use pick 2 on a player we can get with later picks. When we can get a different top draft talent with that pick and Daicos.
We would never have matched as good as JHF will be we could get a Callaghan type in 2022 by trading out pick 2 for a future 1st and gotten Daicos with later picks. Using pick 2 on Daicos or JHF would have been the poor choice.
Agree you would probably not bid on Daicos. But imagine you did to force us to trade pick 2 with North for their future 1st you could have had Callaghan and JHF
This ignores other options such as trade. And nothing with regards to Daicos impacts how good/bad the 2020 trade was. At the end of the day Collingwood traded #2 for several kids in 2020, that trade will hold on it's own.
Exactly.
