Correct. Of course Jackson is still worth pick 3. we're not going to accept 2 glorified early 2nd rounders for Jackson. 1 pick needs to be close to top 5. otherwise, the trade won't get done. Happy to let him go for nothing. Freo are so keen on Jackson that they've lose their bargaining power also. You can't offer a guy 900k over many years and then try to play it cool.
Mate, no point in trying the hard sell on me, I don't want him.
You keep saying 900k when the reported value is closer to 700k.
I haven't heard any reports saying it's close to 700k. I've heard 900k and 800-900k
That's fine. I don't want pick 16 and 17. And let's not talk about hard selling when freo fans are trying to convince people that Griffin Logue and Lobb are worth 1st round picks. double standards. Especially after Logue's game on the weekend.
I don't blame you for wanting plenty. I don't see how we get it for you but fair play for having a crack.
Unfortunately you are wrong, Freo and Melbourne will get a deal done as the only other alternative is the PSD and no one wants that. When it comes to bargaining it is Jackson that wants to leave Melbourne and come home he is OOC and Freo have put together a very attractive offer.
I agree that a deal will get done. But if Melbourne aren't happy with the offer then the ball isn't in freo's court. They've shown their hand, they're desperate to get Jackson. Desperate. They'll have to find a way to improve their draft hand.
well yeah, if I'm the dees list manager I'm asking for a lot more than we'll get. My starting offer is 3 firsts, knowing full well that it'll come back to 2. I wouldn't be starting at 2 firsts. Let alone 2 extremely late firsts which mean we miss out on all of the elite talent in both of the drafts.
lol. sorry, I'll try to calm it down. But if melbourne come out of the gates asking for more then my posts are justified.
You won't on either score.

According to those in the know it is a very even draft this year. You could throw a blanket over 20 blokes. A late first rounder is nothing to be sneezed at. (next year might be a different story).
Had a knee issue which he seemed to get over. But hurt a calf in round 23.
They say that at every draft. "it's really even after the first 5 picks". A late first rounder has a 60% fail rate based on 10 years of data across all of the clubs. It's is not worth all that much.
it was looking like pick 11 at one stage against the bulldogs
