Traded Jaidyn Stephenson [traded with Bosenavulagi and #39 to North for #26, #33 and 2021 R4]

[00Stinger]

Yep, don't massively care either way as we have early picks this year to bring in elite talent.

with very little exposed form to go on its going to be a chook raffle looking for elite talent in this years draft

- did his knee and missed playing in their draft year. Max went at 4 and looks like a superstar in the making.

There is the odd bolter but at the top end there isn't much movement during the year.

I guess its something to hold onto not having a 1st round pick.

whatever makes you happy to be rebuilding through a draft where most players have no exposed form for 12 months I guess

Most Victorian players? Plenty of highlights of McDonald, Thilthorpe and co.

Some of the Top 6 or 8 have exposed form, it gets dicey after that.
I don't want your pick 11 so not saying this from that stand point, i would prefer Stephenson to stay.

But knowing a couple of coaches in TAC Cup, this draft is going to be great for clubs that don't have the strongest draft hands.
Will be some absolute steals had in hindsight once we fast forward 2-3 years.

This doesn't really make sense.

You can have a strong draft hand, high picks and still a lot of mid round picks.

They aren't mutually exclusive.

Of course, great if you can have both.
The more picks you have the better imo.

 

[CaptainHowdy87]

I would much rather lose Treloar than Stephenson.

My ideal outcome here would be keeping Stepho, offloading Treloar, and getting Gunston in.

 

[Kangaroos4eva]

The pies have tried to add Phillips to the deal. North maybe keen as a steak knives option.

 

[THE_GUN]

Wow looking like a 2nd rounder for Stevo. What a bargain

Two actually, but still a great deal for the Grinboners



Well played North. Will happily admit iwas wrong.

Collingwood oh dear

 

[Mofra]

The pies have tried to add Phillips to the deal. North weren’t keen.

Interesting - their cap squeeze is serious.
Who mentioned that?

A North specific ITK, so grain of salt and all that.

We were linked before when Polec was likely to leave, but no one wanted Polec, lol.

 

[Mofra]

Fair enough.
Risk/reward profile of getting Stephenson is a good one for the Roos who presumably have a ton of cap space with Brown/Higgins out.

 

[Pykie]

Disagree but they play different positions

I think you will find most wouldn't even have him in the top 5 of the 2017 draft anymore.

Naughton, Cerra, Brayshaw, LDU & Clark all made big strides this year.

This years draft is very unknown after the 1st round.
Pies would be better off asking for 2021 2nd rounder

I still think it’s too early to judge them, but the Freo boys and Naughton are going real well, as is LDU now that he’s had an injury-free run at it. I suspect Stephenson will be the same at a new club and a full preseason.

 

[Peter Sidorkiewicz]

Agree. Plus they may need points for Nick Daicos next year, if they trade their 2021 first rounder.

Correction, apparently Phillips might be chucked in for steak knives. He's a lesser Dumont and as bad as Polec has been, we aren't playing two slow wingers.

You can have Phiilips for free, very good runner with poor skills and football IQ.

He'd still be top 5 if you discount this year, glandular fever is no joke.

Pruess is a good player, i would've kept him.

He’s not that bad.

 

[Kangaroos4eva]

Similar to the Greenwood situation before he left. Built good form before we sold him off. Our people never rated Pruess beyond a good VFL player.
