Confirmed Pick swap: Carlton trade F1 & F2 (both tied to Carl) to Hawthorn for #14

[Foxx]

I would have thought Hawthorn would want to add another young top draft pick to this young group asap. Get them all building together.

 

[Orange Agent]

We are targetting the draft and pick 14 in this years draft is like pick 8 in next years draft.

Nobody could definitively rate the 2025 draft class at this point. Look at the players being talked for this year, 12 months ago. It completely changes in their final year.

So the point of the trade is to use at the draft and not to get Houston?

I think it gives us flexibility to explore both.

Top 20 is known from under 16s

This trade reflects a real vic bias to form an alliance against interstate teams.

So what we now have is west coast will get a future first and second (later in the draft going by hawthorn's second half of the year) for a premiership key back. In the top 5 in the league. Which is unders

We have Richmond getting pick 6 plus maybe 13 from the sun's. Overs
Collingwood getting a first for noble. Overs
Houston pick 13 or 1r and early second to either Carlton or Collingwood which is unders

Bolton 2 firsts from freo is overs
Baker a first is overs too

But the afl turn a blind eye

It will be funny if tigers have a 4 year period of form like North have and their 3 top 10 picks leave after 3 years.

 

[Gumby2Hurley]

Good trade for both sides.

 

[Chism]

Can’t complain with the trade and even if we dont land a Houston or Barass with one of em taking those 2 selections to the draft along with Campo twins i am happy.
