Flexibility for next years trade period
Gives the ability us to be in the running for a big fish player target or ability to trade into better picks again or even the year after
We'll be able to trade down our last pick or 2 while collecting F1s. Like last year's pick 35 on steroids.

That’s always the risk but if you look at our list as well it’s extremely unlikely we take 8 players in the national draft

It would mean having no selections in the pre season draft or pre season supplemental period and historically our club likes to have options for those two things as well because we have found some success with them

They traded it to Essendon
Druggos will be looking to trade back in after Kako bid. Rosa is a noob who's already been fleeced by Melbourne, he can have pick 24 for an F1 and F2.

Houston is a good player. He's underrated in Vic. He's now overrated because he's in Vic.

Theoretically what do you think our pick 24 is worth in this current market?

I think we hold it until draft night. In live trading I think we can do a pick slide like last year and pick up a future first as well.
 
If it’s supposed to be the best draft as in good players all the way through why would we gives picks away for next draft
Exactly. Let's get them in and get them working. Imagine picks sliding every year, you would never get anyone in. Use them all I say. Maybe kmacz Dow, Coulthard etx to the rookie list if we want them

It’s an interesting situation. We could easily trade for futures and do pick slides with 18, 20, 23 & 24 but in our current position is it not better to take the best available players.

I don’t think we should trade away the picks if we think the players on the board are good enough and meet our needs.

Can’t see us trading for pick 2

We had our chance to accept 10&18 from Freo

Then trade 10&Baker for 3

Means the eagles would have had Baker & 10 instead of baker & 12 like they have after the Carlton deal

We could have had 3 and 18

Instead have 10 11 & 18

We obviously prefer 10&11 over 3 so can’t see us trading for 2 unless it’s 10&11 which I doubt norf accept

Rose coloured glasses …. 1 x AA and 1 x B&F between them. Houston has 2 x AA in the last 2 years alone, is long-term contracted, and Rioli and Bolton both secured much better trade deals than him.

We got more for 26yo ex-rookie Baker than Dogs will get for 23yo ex pick-7 Bailey Smith.

We did amazingly well given the depth and quality of this draft - amazing.

I prefer to think that they did badly. No, poorly.

Both clubs got shafted. But, if you ask me who had the greatest value of the five: I have no hesitation in saying it’s Shai.

And it’s not close.
 
If I was smith/ his manager I would be pretty filthy at the cats right now

They would of known about Smith coming over since last year but the cats have done nothing to try and secure enough capital to make the deal happen

Their only tactic is holding out and hoping the dogs fold and just stinks of arrogance
That’s Mackie for ya. Going to be a scourge on this period every year ‘til 2050.
 
if Lynch doesnt fire the spoons almost a certainty again,so we select 2 KPF's in the first rd of the draft yeah ? ( JR was what a #10 pick ?)

a key back with another pick that allows Balta to be the swingman (Valustin was a #9) and a gun mid with our first pick obviously who slots straight in next year along with McAuliffe under the protection of Taranto,Hopper & Co in preparation for 2026 when we'll probably have pick #3 or better along with more in that draft so the possibility of trading in a gun FA ?
or the FA could be the year after that ?,we could most likely be in a tussle with Tasmania for HR come 26/27 ?
 
Also - re Taranto and Hopper - if they can stay on the park they will be pretty invaluable for us in the coming years. Will be very important in leading / protecting / setting an example for whatever young talent we draft in the next few years.

Whilst Taranto and Hopper haven’t lived up to the expectations we all had when they arrived (Taranto kicking skills / hopper durability), they’re key pieces moving forward.

Without them, I don’t think we’d have let all of Graham, Baker, Shai and Rioli leave at once.

They’re both ultimate professionals though so will be great at setting standards around the club, driving improvement and of course will protect all the draftees coming in with their big bodies in the midfield.

True that. Hopper playing Dad & winning our B&F next year would make me very happy
