Traded Ollie Henry - Traded to Geelong as part of a reported 3-way deal (details tbc)

[MisterMarcus]

Pick 25 and 33 would work in the end.

We get to claim it as a win because we keep Pick 7 and F1.

Collingwood can twist it into "It's the equivalent of a first rounder" so they can claim they got the win.

Opposition supporters will melt, so both Pies and Cats fans can laugh at them.

Win-win all around.

LOL Both??
1300 points? Pick 11?
Yeah Nah... Pick 25 is plenty for a bloke who couldn't solidify a spot in the team. See Exhibit A... J.Clark

Stop with the point bullshit.

 

[iGNITER]

Stop with the point bullshit.

Points thing is rubbish. "Worth pick 11" blah blah. Point is, it is not pick 11. We don't get a pick 11 pick.

AFL’s points curve… lol

Best you could trade those two picks for would be like 21.

Stop with the point bullshit.

Yes indeed... take your own advice an apply it to oneself.
25 is plenty now jog on dannyboy

Thats why it's 25 or 33. Commonsense to separate the 2. Less confusion for those at the Carringbush.

 

[STPer18]

With what else?

With Bowes and pick 7 coming the other way.

But the AFL has said no to F3 apparently.

Especially this year where there are tiers to this draft. Apart from WCE who clearly want WA talent, most clubs have said there are tiers even in the first round. Would say the Dogs trade their first for 25 and 33....they would laugh at you repeatedly. My club benefits from the points scale but it's the biggest load of horse dump ever produced. Highly overrates later picks.

 

[STPer18]

Yep. They don't want to.

As it stands you've got 25, Sav and a future third to get Henry and the pick 7 deal done. If it's true that the AFL and GC agreed to a future 2nd for that deal to go ahead, Mackie has played brinkmanship and tried to box, Collingwood, GC and the AFL into a corner. Hubris and greed may cost him here, with Ollie Henry being the real loser.

Watch #mackattack land them all.

Win for Cats
Loss for Pies

Majority Collingwood supporters are happy to let him walk as we know pick 25 which will be 28 wont get us anywhere near the type of future forward Henry will be.

Its a nothing pick in a shallow draft.

I just thought a team that knew he was coming home since draft night would have planned better.

 

[STPer18]

Jon Ralph is saying that's done. We snookered all three of the GC, AFL and now the Pies by offloading our F2 early days. It's all about wheeling and dealing.

Nice reply.

Wouldn’t expect anything less from a Cats fan.

For all fellow points index haters check out the real deal:

Analysis - Accurate points curve and table

This is really on the nerdy end of trading/draft stuff. I get pretty frustrated with the AFL's points index as it doesn't reflect how clubs value picks. This is because the AFL based on it salary, which doesn't line up with the pick-for-pick trading market. It's basically garbage, and yet the...

You've still got a bunch of potential trades in works, including possibly Mitchell and some fringe types.

25 + 33 combined would let you close all those deals out with no need to touch your existing picks or the Grundy pick.

Why do I have a bad feeling that somehow he ends at Geelong anyway as the Pies will take horrendous under. Just once can a team not gift wrap the Cats a player this trade period please.

It wouldn't shock me tbh.

Will you guys pay $300k of the Mitchell contract as compensation if we take the pick that is not in the first round and use that for Micthell?

 

[LukeParkerno1]

Yep, unfortunately

 

[Stokey]

Pick 25, which will end up at 28 is underwhelming. Can't see a trade happening here.

Better go to SpecSavers.

Bet you thought that was funny when you typed it.

Let us know when you want us to get you back.

See your honour. He approached us

Why? He told us before you even drafted him.

They have?

I think he probably will. The Cats leaking that were into Bowes anyway, before that deal was done was mighty stupid though and may be the stumbling block.

That's fair enough. I just read a few people saying it'd be scuppered as a F3.
