It's a completely valid option. North can give you the McKay compo to draft Curtin and then you get a couple of extra first rounders thrown on top.

WCE need quantity over quality at this point. I'd take Curtin + two additional first round prospects over one Reid.

1. North don’t have pick 11.
2. We need contested ball winning mids, not 3rd defensive talls/HBF.
3. Reid is the best contested ball winner in the draft who also happens to be the best player in the draft.
So with all due respect we’re not trading Reid for a pick that doesn’t exist, a player that doesn’t fill a list need and chump change in the mid/late 20s after compo/FS

I’d love to know how discussions are going with JUH, Naughty, Timmy and Baz. Retaining all 4 will certainly put pressure on the cap.
Most noise is around Baz then Timmy.
What if Naughty was the sticking point. Would the Eagles part with pick 1 for him given the noise over Reid not wanting to go interstate.
Leaves us with JUH, Lobb (for now) and maybe a hybrid Bont as talls or Darcy if he comes good. Also frees up to go smaller. The expense is some area moments from Naughty and his pressure.
Still leaves a mix of Libba, Ads, Jacko (more mid time), Smith and Reid in middle with a sprinkling of Bont (like Petracca).

All the talk of pick swaps just got me wondering, would Weagles give up 1 for Naughty, would it need to have a deep of pick also?

I can promise you there is no way on earth we trade pick 1 for even Naughton and 10. We need elite mids, our forward line is just about the only thing that doesn’t need immediate attention. The only trade I see is doing involves getting pick 2 and 3 from North. I’d take McKercher and Sanders but no doubt Curtin would be spoken about too.

In saying the above I really hope you get something good out of your first rounders, it’s bullshit that you’re even in this position of having to look for alternatives to GC pick 4, that WAS a done deal.

Firstly, Naught's is already on good coin so the increase will be smaller. The Salary Cap increases by 10% next year and over 30% in the next 4. There is no reason we should not be able to keep and keep happy all 4 of them unless our list management is very poor.

Secondly, Though I still think Naughts should be at CHB, even if he remains in the forward line he will still be significantly better than the vast majority of alternatives so why on earth would we trade him at all

Their is no way on earth we will be trading Naughton for pick 1 anyway
 
Curious, with the salary cap due to increase a certain percentage. Does that mean all current contracts will go up the same percentage as well? Or if say, someone signed a 250k per year contract. Will it stay at 250k for the duration of the contract, even once the new deal kicks in?

Melbourne going for pick 1 🙄

Let them. It would take an extraordinary offer for WCE to trade the pick.

Unless they plan on playing Reid as a full time forward for the next couple of years, contested bulls in the midfield are the last thing they need with Oliver, Petracca & Viney.

Edmund reporting that Norf want Buku and Carltank want Crozier as a DFA.

Crozier isn't a DFA unless we delist him. If we have any inkling of keeping him, why not offer him a lowball 1 year deal and let Carlton trade for him? We'll probably get a packet of chips for him but given we need points, every little bit probably counts.
 
Buku Khamis (Western Bulldogs)

“Just staying on North, they’re in the mix for that fringe Bulldog Buku Khamis.”

Hayden Crozier (Western Bulldogs)

“Another Western Bulldog, Hayden Crozier, who has fallen out of favour at the Whitten Oval in more recent times after crossing from Fremantle.

“Some interest from Carlton here. That might yet be as a delisted free agent. It’s hard to know what is going to happen there with Hayden Crozier who is out of contract at the end of the year.

“I wouldn’t be surprised if Carlton pursue him a little bit further in the coming weeks and months.”

Race for Gold Coast’s Pick 4

“This is hotting up. The Western Bulldogs have long been seen as the frontrunner.

“North Melbourne had told Gold Coast, ‘just wait, just wait, we’re waiting on our special assistant package, we might be at the table here’. So whether they have enough to compete with the Western Bulldogs.

“On the surface they do. What they’re willing to give up to get it in is another question altogether. We know it’s up for grabs, for obvious reasons, to the highest bidder.

“It will be changing hands. Whether North can compete with the Bulldogs remains to be seen, or whether North pivot and go for Melbourne’s first pick.”

Yeah my thoughts as well.
Wouldn't mind a late future pick or if not, him staying on the list as depth.

That actually makes sense, Melbourne want Watson who they’ll likely miss out on - might prefer a bunch of freebies from Norf.

Norf want Sanders who they won’t need 4 to get
 
Wouldn’t be surprised if Melbourne are trying to lure Tom Lynch / Harry Mckay / Oscar Allen / Aaron Naughton.
 
Ideally net some third rounders for Buku and Crozier
