Realistically Richmond won’t bid they probably received more from Brisbane to stop any scenario they bid. Gut feeling he’s bid on at 3, whether it’s 1 or 3 makes little difference in the scheme of things. GC got a few last year for way unders too

Honestly, I don't think the pick swap between Richmond and Brisbane was that good for Richmond.

They paid a LOT of points for pick 20, and probably could/should have done better....but they were all junk picks to Richmond, and they were probably exhausted by the end of trade week with all the deals they'd made so didn't care that Brisbane was getting the better of the deal.

But really, it doesn't matter, and it's probably realistic to assume that a deal was done on bids.

Pretty sure it was the deal we did

Colina is a rookie

Edit: does having an extra rookie reduce main list size?

I believe he is cat b. AFL approved another 1 year extension due to his injuries

I agree, but really, all clubs would want to get competing clubs to pay as much as possible (after all, they're COMPETING ), so if Brisbane will pay #2, then they'll try to get a bid done at 2 just to ensure maximum points are paid.

Have you thought it through.

There's more than one competing club. Brisbane lose a couple more of their picks in the 40s at a point in the draft well after Richmond have gone home. No actual value is taken out of the draft. The other picks after them move up becoming slightly more valuable. The same players are still on the board. They just get distributed a bit differently between the other 17 clubs. If Brisbane lose out by missing someone they would have been able to take at the back end of the draft, a different competitor gains by drafting him.

He's been delisted, so mustn't have gotten a cat b extension. He'll have to be added as a cat a rookie.

Any picks after 24 or whatever the first is in the second round are useless to Richmond they won’t use them. Was all about getting picks inside the second round. Junk seconds/thirds were useless to them not to Brisbane both parties got what they wanted
