deadly group they can assembleBolton rotating with Serong, Young, and Bradshaw will be deadly. Freo need to get it done.
Sometimes I'm amazed that posters on here think they have thought of draft deals and options than people who are paid to do so and spend the entire years planning, did not think of.Brisbane shouldn’t have had a choice but to trade their future first or multiple players.
If we bid on Ashcroft at pick 1 it would cost them 2400 points. If Marshall gets a bid around 20 it would cost them over 700 points. That’s 3100 points they need to match the 2 bids.
Brisbane will only have 4-5 list spots (I’m assuming 5 because they were keen on multiple picks in the 40s).
Let’s say they get 6 picks to be generous. Find me a way they get 6 picks worth 3100 points without trading their future first. If they don’t have enough points they go into deficit and that first pick drops further down the order in a draft where picks will be worth less points.
The best Melbourne could do in 5 picks was 1703 points. The Carlton pick was only worth another 584 points. That’s not even enough to match a pick 1 bid.
We should have worked pick 20 and Brisbanes F1 into our trades with GC and Freo, and sent them back picks 29, 30, 31, 42 and 43.
We could’ve ended up with picks 6, 10, 11, 13 & 20. Instead we’ll be lucky to have 3 of them.
never trust a man with a permanent smileThought Matty Clarke would be better list manager than recruiter. I could be wrong
Working at the feet of Darcy and Jackson is a mouth-watering prospect.deadly group they can assemble
fingers crossed we can amicably work this out
and it works in our favour
baker doesnt want freo, shite club that doesnt win flagsCalls for 10,11 and 18 at Freo for Shai and Baker is a bad deal for us. Baker is worth more than 18 and 10,11 is bare minimum for Shai. They would need to add a future second round as a minimum.
Yeah, Blair had nothing to do with the list build. I mean we were such a force in the competition when he took over our list management.he did not deliver a dynasty.
We got Dusty on the back of plough the year before when he departed. Cotch, JR and Rance where earlier not to mention others.
would we have won regardless of Blair?? quite possibly in a different way, Dimma was more important than Blair
Francis and the draft recruiting can lay more claim to the dynasty than Blair
Yep he's from WA. He gets how it works.baker doesnt want freo, shite club that doesnt win flags
It could be better, but it also could be worse. In an even draft those are 2 great picks and 1 good one.Calls for 10,11 and 18 at Freo for Shai and Baker is a bad deal for us. Baker is worth more than 18 and 10,11 is bare minimum for Shai. They would need to add a future second round as a minimum.
Yeah but now Blooze have #14 West Coast have nothing to trade for Baker. 10,11,18 is good for Baker and Bolton to Freo imo.Calls for 10,11 and 18 at Freo for Shai and Baker is a bad deal for us. Baker is worth more than 18 and 10,11 is bare minimum for Shai. They would need to add a future second round as a minimum.
Baker is NOT worth more then #18Calls for 10,11 and 18 at Freo for Shai and Baker is a bad deal for us. Baker is worth more than 18 and 10,11 is bare minimum for Shai. They would need to add a future second round as a minimum.
Balanced? He tells us that Bolton is a star and could be the difference for Freo then says:Refreshing to read a balanced article for once.
Bolton is their massive point of difference, especially after watching Brisbane smalls tear it up in the GF.
Blair will get our picks.
the munt twinsWhere is the information linking Carlton to picks 2/3?
Carlton now has picks 12 and 14 and is content to use them both in the national draft.
To trade the future first and second rounders the Blues gave up their No.36 pick and No.66 pick and secured the Lions future second-rounder and this year’s pick 73.
It allowed the Blues under league rules to trade both picks because they still had a future second rounder.
The Camporeale brothers are still likely to land at Carlton. Picture: Keryn Stevens
The Blues have not had recent discussions with Houston and believe he is still Collingwood-bound if the Pies, Gold Coast and Port Adelaide can agree on a three-club deal.
But if the Houston deal falls over _ and there are still five days to run on the trade period _ then the Blues would offer pick 12 for the dual All Australian.
They have traded out pick 36 and must retain their future second-rounder linked to Brisbane, so have little more left to give.
They would use pick 12 and one of Matt Kennedy or Lewis Young but the Power seems uninterested in either of those two players.
I love Mr Magic ’s takes. He’s an original thinker who’s not a hater.Yeah, Blair had nothing to do with the list build. I mean we were such a force in the competition when he took over our list management.
Like I said, you know nada about trading and drafting strategies Mate.
Over and out now, pointless having a discussion with you and your mad thoughts.
Sometimes I'm amazed that posters on here think they have thought of draft deals and options than people who are paid to do so and spend the entire years planning, did not think of.
IF that was an option, don't you think we would have done it? Clearly none of that was an option. At this point I'm just not sure why you don't have a job at Richmond. Over 5 minutes while taking a shit you've thought of a trade idea that gets us multiple first rounders for nothing more!
At some point some of you surely have to understand that these guys know more than you and that every explored trade option IS NOT REPORTED in the media. Just because you didn't hear about it, doesn't mean it wasn't thought of or that there wasn't any conversations with other teams about it.
Nothing that can't be repaired.That speech by o’rourke maybe a hinderance

Yeah if they go to the draft with 10,11 & 18 and recruit 2 players who in 5 years are as good as Bolton and Baker are now they'd call that a success.It’s weird reading some of the Freo posters. They seem more determined to ‘win’ one trade than look at the big picture. They’re close list wise, I reckon they need to push their chips into the middle of the table. Bolton seems perfect for them if they are genuinely wanting to go for a flag…
