I don't think the issue is that pick 1 makes no sense. I think the issue is that pick 1 (or any pick) is not a human. Melbourne could only trade Jackson with Fremantle, meaning only Fremantle's assets were in play.This is literally what we paid for Jackson but with an extra 1st chucked on top and it’s not enough. The value of pick 1 continues to make no actual sense
Yep - I think a Melb/WC deal will only happen if Melbourne scrape together a deal for 4 with GC (and so have 4 and.5) and NM don't get pick 3 compensation (but they get the NGA exclusion instead).Any deal has to net us Curtin or McKercher you’d think, otherwise don’t bother asking.
Only way a deal like that would make sense would be if Reid explicitly says he’s not leaving and we just try to get something of value out of the trade like last year. Even then I’m inclined to just take Reid anyway because I don’t feel as though we’d get the same result.
Wardlaw for Ginbey and Hewett is a huge W on our end and worked for North too. I can’t see Reid for Duursma and pick 15 having the same sort of win win scenario.
Much like Serong hey.lol.
keep van Rooyen, take Duursma, take 15, Harley leaves in 2 years
Pretty simpleReid > Jackson
Except Reid doesn't want to go to WAI said all along it makes far more sense for WCE to end up with Reid and North to end up with Curtin.
Hopefully the result bears positive fruit for both clubs.
How would you know. Making crap up or reading fake media articles.Except Reid doesn't want to go to WA
Got a link to an article where's he's quoted as saying that?Except Reid doesn't want to go to WA
Curtin happy to go anywhere?Except Reid doesn't want to go to WA
You don’t seriously believe this do you? There isn’t just smoke, it’s a bloody bush fire in Tongala.How would you know. Making crap up or reading fake media articles.
The only person I believe is Harley Reid himself. Who's gone on and said that his fine going to Eagles and anywhere.
That's all anyone needs to know. Not some garbage media who's been trying to get clicks.
Keep ReidGoing to be fascinating watching this play out.
Personally I think North are in the box seat to trade up for pick 1 if WCE prefer taking Curtin. Cannot see us paying more then Pick 2 and Port pick though. Pick 2 & 3 for Pick 1 are delusions of grandeur.
Whether Sanders is prelisted or requires a bid will have a part to play in this. Because it means North won’t actually be able to use that pick.
I don’t see the Dees offer as likely, simply because it won’t secure WCE Curtin. They aren’t trading away the rights of Reid for Duursma/Watson (Freos pick) and likely a worse later pick (Melbournes first).
North - Pick 1
WCE - Pick 2 & 15
This scenario or WCE taking Reid are the only two possibilities IMO.
I hope WC do offer that. I will enjoy getting pick 2 when WC get stripped of their draft picks.Keep Reid
Offer picks 19 (948), future 2nd (949) and no bid on Walters (976) for GC pick 4 (2046)
1906 points for 2882 points. Win win
That is absolute trash. We wouldn't even land one of reid, mckercher, curtin or duursma, not to mention walter. Those other picks probably get pushed back 5 extra spots too due to academy picks. Please tell me this isn't even in the realm of possibility of being accepted?

I agree that WCE won’t trade pick 1 for unders. However I disagree that Pick 2 and Pick 15 for Pick 1 is unders.Eagles wont trade Reid for unders to just land Curtin IMO.
Melbourne get pick 4 from the Suns and with that Eagles get two of Curtin, Duursma or McKercher. More than happy with either two of the three. Plus a F1st in a mid fielders draft in 2024.
Add six 1st rounders in 3 drafts. Last year 9 and 14, 4 and 5 this draft, pick 1/2 and Dees 1st in 2024.
How do you get 976 points for no bid on Walter?Keep Reid

On paper, 2 + 15 for 1 isn't unders but that isn't a deal we should be entertaining. Then factor in how far pick 15 is likely to slide and that offer is well short.I agree that WCE won’t trade pick 1 for unders. However I disagree that Pick 2 and Pick 15 for Pick 1 is unders.
It would be a great deal if WCE & Melbourne are able to manufacture a deal that nets WCE both Freo’s and GC’s pick. I just think it’s unlikely.

But then the next team can bid on him? The benefit to Gold Coast is only 25% of the difference to the next pick, right?It should be 750 points. 25% of 3000.
Historically, WC should be very happy if Reid is as good as Jackson yet alone so much better you’d have to trade Jackson and pick in the teens to get him.Reid > Jackson

Ah here we go. Another know it all that's knows nothing. Wasting Oxygen.You don’t seriously believe this do you? There isn’t just smoke, it’s a bloody bush fire in Tongala.
