To put pressure on your club?

To either get Brisbane to increase their offer or shake out any late interest from other clubs. Not great if you're a manager who has advised your client twice to got to clubs in the middle of a pick 1 bidding process (Marra in 2020, Ashcroft this year).
Pickering needs this to work as much as Dunkley does.

Dunkley is a very good player and any club who wants to bolster their midfield would be interested, and someone may think they are now a sneaky chance. It's rare but it happens.

 

[Nathan Barley]

Nope, you are wrong. It's easy to do a quick check on what the reported offer was (by multiple outlets now).

15 and a future first

For

Dunkley, 30, 39 AND a future 3rd

That's a rubbish offer and as much as you try to say those later picks have no value, the reason Brisbane asked for them back is because they do.

Looks like that'll be pretty close to rhe outcome the Lions get after the trades yesterday

 

[RoyBoy17]

Asking for two second rounders back rates Dunkley somewhere around pick 30. Pay what he's worth or miss out.

Your picks in the draft are first rounders? You're happy to reject two first rounders for picks in the 30's and a pick in the 40's.

It's about maximising top 20 picks. If your recruitment team can't get 100/ 200 gamers from at least one of those first rounders then they're struggling.

Well given it came out after we did yesterday's trade it's not going to work that way

 

[Mofra]

Second rounders are (especially late ones) aren't worth a pinch of shite

You just accepted a second rounder for Berry

 

[RoyBoy17]

We weren't expecting to get someone's B&F for the change left over.

Change left over is two first rounders?

 

[Milux]

Imagine losing your best player to the pre season draft. We all know it won't happen. But still.

As a poster said before if we had to chose between Ashcroft/Fletcher and Dunkley then Dunkley will be going to the pre season draft.

 

[Milanista28]

If Dodoro offered that for Dunkley the internet would fold

 

[Mofra]

Well given it came out after we did yesterday's trade it's not going to work that way

Hence the commentary that the deal may not get done

 

[adogsfan5]

Its two first rounders.

Second rounders are (especially late ones) aren't worth a pinch of shite

Players drafted in the 30s recently:
Brady Hough
Paul Curtis
Rhett Bazzo
Errol Gulden
Harry Jones
Trent rivers
Keidean Coleman
Chad warner
James Jordon
Bailey williams
Tom Berry
Tom De Koning
Bailey fritsch
Tom mccartin
Harrison Petty
Jack Petrucelle
Nathan Murphy

 

[Foxman98]

If it's a choice between Dunkley and the number 1 pick in the draft, any fan not of the Bulldogs would choose the latter.

They weren't choosing between that though they had enough ways of getting the points as was outlined multiple ways in here

 

[PhoenixBonez]

Poor Dunks must be feeling some deja vu right now.

What is likely 2 x pick 15s for Dunkley + 30 + 39 + F3 is surely massive unders.

Dunkley is also significantly better than Taranto for me

 

[Nathan Barley]

Hence the commentary that the deal may not get done

Again. Why would Pickering want to leak that?

 

[weltschmerz]

Second rounders are (especially late ones) aren't worth a pinch of shite

So don't ask for them.

 

[RoyBoy17]

So don't ask for them.

We aren't using them to hand pick a superstar at pick 37. It's for matching a bid. Otherwise we wouldn't be bothering with them.

 

[master bate]

The deal was Dunkley + 30 + 39 + F3(42) for 15 & F1(15).

That would 'value' Dunkley at nice pick 26. No where near it.

I’m talking real world value, how teams actually rate picks when it’s not decided by the computer system designed to prop up the Northern clubs and make father sons easy.

Future 3rd is meh. 39 in this draft, meh.

15 + 15 = 8, minus pick 30 = 12. Not far off.

 

[weltschmerz]

Pick 39

 

[RoyBoy17]

You just accepted a second rounder for Berry

And?

 

[RoyBoy17]

Pick 39

Can we please have a list of all players selected at 39?

And we know this years would have been pick 16 after the Ashcroft bid. Could have been 17 if someone bid a little early on Fletcher too.

 

[RoyBoy17]

Looks like this will get done for a future first now

 

[Mofra]

Again. Why would Pickering want to leak that?

Get other clubs interested/involved in either Dunkley or a pick swap deal that could help the trade along
Or he may simply be pissed off that the Lions aren't dealing in good faith

 

[Neale4brownlow]

Can we please have a list of all players selected at 39?

I think that was it.

 

[Nathan Barley]

Why haven't the bulldogs completed the Lobb deal? Are they not offering a fair deal?

 

[Mofra]

And?

You quote about 2nd rounders is clearly incorrect.
