Confirmed Pick swap: Brisbane trade #20 to Richmond for #32, #42, #43 & #45

Wonder if we keep this pick.
Could be for a tall forward- Faull or Whitlock perhaps. Do we try to grab the best ruckman in the draft here?
Will there be a slider that we had our eyes on with an earlier pick make it here?

Or do we use it with another pick to trade up?

Hoping we keep it and call out five players on the first night. The first pick

At what point in the draft order is a bid expected to come through for Sam Marshall? We know Ashcroft will be bid on with pick 1 or 2 so let's say it's 2517 points for a pick 2 bid with so that's 2014 points with the 20% F/S discount. From what I've seen, a bid for Marshall is expected around pick 20, which is 912 points, and that becomes 730 points with the 20% academy discount.

So Brisbane likely need around 2750 points to match the two bids. They currently have pick 32 (584 pts), 34, (542 pts), 42 (395 pts), 43 (378 pts), 45 (347 pts), 60 (146 pts) & 66 (80 pts). That's 2472 points, which means they are around 300 points short and that's assuming a bid comes through for Ashcroft at pick 2, not pick 1.

Looks like Brisbane still has to complete some more deals next week.

We also didn’t have a bidding partner…. Who else could put bid us?

We didn't need to get all our points in the one trade though, you can make smaller trades with multiple clubs who want to move up and still end up with a bevy of picks.

Couple of years ago when we had pick 15 to sell (Ashcroft draft), the first trade we did was pick 21 and FR2, and then traded each of those to different clubs, which gave us more picks, some of which we trade down etc.

It wasn't really Richmond or nothing for Brisbane, which is probably why Richmond were also keen to lock it down early. In the end, Brisbane were the ones with the more valuable asset to most teams, whereas Richmond's assets while still valuable, were more valuable to teams that needed points than other teams.

Early 20s most likely

Twomey has him at 23 in his recent phantom draft, while RookieMe has him at 22.
