Luko should be tied into the Soldo deal, not the Houston deal

We’ll have to give back something with Soldo then, unless GC really value the salary dump.

That dweeb looking Cal Twomey is suggesting that Daniel Rioli will fetch Gold Coasts pick 6. A guy, who outside team success only personal accolade is 2017 Goal of the Year. Dan Houston is coming off back to back All Australians with 3 years on his contract remaining. North's Pick 2 or nothing.

Rioli is 27 too.

Pick 6 should be more like pick 16.
Gold Coast are there as back up for Victorian clubs.

Is Sid Draper the best available at pick 2 or is it the SA factor?

Draper is actually this good.

Draper is actually this good.

Agreed, those repeat efforts at 2.34 were sensational.

 

[Relativity]

Draper is actually this good.

That mark running with the ball was ridiculous.

Not necessarily, the pick we get for Soldo could get the deal done. We can take on Luko's salary and smooth it out over a longer period.

Our F1 is a top 4 pick.

We could triple our wins and still get pick 4.

Maybe. It’s pick 3 at absolute best, tigers and west coast, well, they’ve got pick 1 and 2 sewn up.

But you’ve got the most improved ruck in the league (yeah prob more than sweet) , there’s going to be improvement from your highly rated young players , and Houston will improve you out of sight. Another year under Clarkson.

Honestly, if your still bottom 4 next year might as well fold.

Your future pick could easily be 4-12 (not unrealistic to expect a priority pick could be handed to tigers or eagles or compo picks get handed out).



Landing Houston , for a club that has missed out on gun players time and time and time and time again, would be the biggest recruiting coup for your club since, **** I don’t even know when.
