Rumour GFC 2024 Player Trading, Drafting FA, Rumours and Wish lists Pt 2

[cats_09]

Ask and we'll try our best to assist - so here's 2024 Provisional AFL Draft Order

As normal, would like to acknowledge & thank Lore for creating this, keeping it up to date and making it available for all users on BF to use and keep track of the picks ahead of the upcoming draft





I'll also sticky this post to ensure it's easily accessible for discussion of our hypothetical trader

 

[Gee Class Loco]

For us to have pick 10 we will have to fall in a heap and lose all 3 remaining games and even then with compo picks for FA it will still probably be 12ish

I am thinking before FA and other bullshit we will probably have pick 12-16

Haven't u seen what's happened this season to a few sides.
LOL one team even went 7-0 only to cough up a few easy home wins.
Interesting times ahead.
Hope it's pick 18-19 TBH. But thats just blind hope on my part.

Who do you reckon we're saving this year's pick for, if the F1 is for Baz?

Cam Rayner if he wants out.... lol. Yeah Nah... not sure TBH.
Heard a few stories but nothing worth posting yet.
Pretty sure we are balls deep into a few contracted players.
Some which would surprise... they did me.

Maybe......but then Mahlepi had a particular way with their prose, and I've not seen it repeated here.

Do you think we will get any other deals done JJ? Looking like Waterman is about to sign a long-term deal with WC (surprise-surprise).

Would we be looking at some mids that aren't getting a game elsewhere?

Waterman was never happening and Geelong were not a serious player in those discussions.

Outside of Bailey Smith I'm really not sure and have not heard a lot.

Not a lot of "free hit" midfielders around so we'd need to trade and I'm not sure we have the draft capital after a Smith first rounder goes to the Dogs - unless the right player is available and we are prepared to trade a future pick. So that really just leaves salary and player dumps in trade period by other clubs if they're trying to clear space to bring other players in (like Bowes and the Suns a few years back). There's generally a few left field surprises so let's hope Geelong are on the receiving end and bring a good player in for peanuts.

Not contracted coming off a 12 month stint on holidays account a ACL.
Cards are not really stacked in the clubs favour.
A pick in the teens is about where it is IMO.
Next years 1st Round Pick with a 3rd coming back... I reckon.
We need our 1st pick this year for another player.

Future first? Heading into a rebuild?
Are you nuts? This year's first and a future 2nd are MORE than enough for an out of contract, post ACL player.

Think he means the current first would be used on another player (his rumour), while the F1 would be used on Baz.

It all depends entirely on who that player is, but it could potentially have some merit.

We've brought in a lot of quality kids over the last few years, both from trading and the draft.

Again - heavily depends on the player - but surrounding them with some prime aged talent might not be the worst idea.

I don't listen to it, but I've read it was reported on Gettable that we're invested in Rayner as a FA - which he will be next year

I can make a few rumours up if that will make you feel better
