Imagine trading out Richmond royalty to then waste the capital on Houston ffsAccording to who?
He's out of contract. We don't have the same leverage we do with the Rioli / Bolton trades.I like it and it mostly seems realistic but I think we will want a tad more for Baker.
enough to know he isnt a need for us, great kid though.Know much about Hobbs?
If we trade pick one it will be the end of Blair.
If I were Norf and Richmond took FOS at 1, I'd be bidding on both Ashcroft and Lombard at 2. Lombard is as good or better than Draper.
If Norf didn't do it, good chance West Coast would given they're one of the most vocal critics of the Northern academies, and that Lombard would suit them to a tee.
After last year's haul I don't think any clubs are keen for the Suns to pay unders again.
There's no Harley Reid, but this statement just isn't true.#1 has no value if there is a blanket over the first half dozen picks.
Two early 2nd rounders are not 'a bag of chips'One thing people are forgetting in regards to Baker is we have pick 1 in pre season draft with ample cap space.
So idea that we give him away for a bag of chips will not happen if we have any balls. We need to be ruthless in this next phase when it comes to trading.
two second rounders is not very fair, they will be put back and you get your dime a dozen players. Your in the Phillips fringe categoryHe's out of contract. We don't have the same leverage we do with the Rioli / Bolton trades.
West Coast are at a similar stage in their rebuild to us. I doubt they'll want to trade pick 3 or whatever 1st round pick they get for Barrass for Baker. Two second rounders seem very fair, especially considering how good this year's draft is until pick 30-odd.
I understand but for mine its still unders. I think West Coast would need to work a bit harder in securing adequate compensation. Its not our problem they only have picks that they have. Two second rounders will probably end up being picks 23-25 or so in both drafts.He's out of contract. We don't have the same leverage we do with the Rioli / Bolton trades.

Yeah haven’t forgiven the * for that!!! Although We probably didn’t do due diligence in that tradeyou mean like Carlton trading us Yarren knowing he had a raging drug problem
Current picks 1, 21, 33, 39, 41, 51, 57, 65, 73
Graham to WCE for band 3 compo = 22
33, 39 & 41 to Brisbane for 2025 R1 pick
Rioli to Suns for 5, straight up. Daniel isn't worth pick 5 but given he is contracted until 2027 that's the price is the Suns want him, take it or leave it.
Baker to WCE for 2024 & 2025 R2 picks = 23(2024) & 19-22 range for 2025
Bolton to Fremantle for 9 & 13. Understand that people want 3 R1 picks, but no club is going to give up 3 picks for him. Take the 2 R1 picks and move on especially if he doesn't want to be here.

We just got to get more for Bolton than that. If that means getting multiple clubs involved or a future r1 pick on top of that then get it done. We’ve absolutely got the whip hand in this one, it can’t be unders has to be overs.Current picks 1, 21, 33, 39, 41, 51, 57, 65, 73

If there is no clear cut #1 then why care if we trade #1 when we are seemingly as good a chance to get the better player at #5 as we are at #1 - and in fact may get our first preference at #5 anyway …. If we can parlay #1 into 5 and another first rounder this year or next I’d suggest this year seems the perfect year to do it.
#1 has no value if there is a blanket over the first half dozen picks.

I truly hope that’s the case. Keep it and take the player you covet the most, it’s not that difficult. Don’t care at all that this is an even draft with no clear standout at this point, pick one guarantees you get the player you rate the best. USE IT to your advantageI think people are under valuing the power of pick #1. Us fans may value it less because their isn’t a Harley Reid in this draft who is clear number one, but recruiters do not think that way. Every teams recruitment will have someone who they are enamoured with. Pick 1 allows them to take that player without any risk of someone else nabbing the player before them.
I’m all for trading down if possible (difficult trade to make), but it’s probably more than likely that Toce, Blair and others have a player in mind that they want. It’s more likely they’ll just want to take him without any risk of missing out.
Wut? Why would they do that? They need points this year. Even if they didnt, that's a horrific deal for Lions.33, 39 & 41 to Brisbane for 2025 R1 pick

Edit. I should say they need way more points than that.
