I've had enough of all of these kents already.

Nothing would satisfy me more right now than drafting H.Reid and watch him kick a bag against the tin-rattlers.


And anyone else wanting to entertain splitting the pick in this massively compromised draft needs to give themselves an uppercut as well.
 
There's other ways to get GC pick 6

Adelaide have Welsh next year and hold picks 20 and 25 this year

Trade F2, F3 and 38 for 20 and 25 this year.

Trade 6 to GC for 20, 25 and 36

Trade Barrass and 6 for Sydney 4, 23 and 24

Draft hand for 2023 of 1, 4, 19, 23 and 24

We can always trade back into the 2nd and 3rd round in 2024. He'll we stink again and we'll get a PP 2nd and 3rd round similar to NM

Just to add to the above, if NM get 2 and 3 we could then split pick 1 and guarantee ourselves Curtin and Mckercher.

Draft hand will be something like 2,3,4,23,24 assuming the deal with north is 1&19 for 2 and 3

Do we need or want that if we plan on picking up our 2 NGA players after pick 40 though?

Seems to me we can run with pick 1,4.7 and then pick 60 an 70 to get Livingstone and the other whose name escapes me atm

I honestly wouldn’t spend to much time worrying about the Suns pick. They will have 17 clubs eyeing it off and like last year will do what suits there interests not ours because it’s there pick. No one saw the salary dump coming and the Cats getting pick 7.

We don’t know who’s out at the Suns at the end of this year. What there salary cap looks like and who’s coaching them even never mind what there trade/draft strategy will be.
 
Why wouldn’t the Suns just give us their first pick and one of their good players who is slightly overpaid. We could renegotiate the players contact to suit us and use the pick in the draft.

Agree that using Adelaide to shift pick(s) from next draft to this one might be easier to do than the GC one for current pick 6 (which could become pick 8 or 9).

Keep Barrass and use pick 1 and then see if we can put something together for their pick 6.

Noting that with f/s and Northern Academy bids often push 1st round/early 2nd round picks back before the points payments then drags the following picks roughly back to their pre-draft value.

Crows want GC 1st pick this year.

Really hope we tell them we'll use 1 on Walters or else!

Believe clubs are waiting on an announcement about the mooted changes to the rules for matching father son prospects.

Along with what the salary cap will be

It’s not like there’s any rush
 
I hope a change will be killing off the 20% point discount.
From the little I’ve “heard” (i.e. insinuated rather than outright said it) that clubs matching a father son (only) bid, will have to have a pick in the round the bid comes in. I.E. Brisbane can’t trade out their first round pick in next year’s draft if they want to match a bid on Levi Ashcroft.

You can work out the implications from there.

I think the bid having to come from the same round only half works, the complication comes when you have a bid say pick 16, you would have to hold pick 17 or 18.

I think it should be something along the lines that the closer the pick is to the bid the more discount you receive,
Eg bid is pick 1 and you hold pick 2 or 3 you get the full 20% if the picks held are too far from the original perhaps you have to pay more points or can’t match.

I'm only guessing here, but if the bid comes in the same round, after you have made a selection, then you can't trade out your next pick.

The thing I don't like in that is Grand Finalists then have the opportunity to trade up in that round that the worse team won't.

I.e. if Sydney have a F/S who is going to go im top 3 picks then they will do a deal with one of the GF teams resulting in that top 2 team getting access to a top tier player. Yes it would cost them more points -but they'd probably be happy to do so.

Just turf the 20% discount.for starters.

To take it further - maybe make it a 20% cost to the F/s club if they are a top 30? pick for the privilege to have sole access.
 
Just make it you can only match points within the next 18 picks. Incentivise clubs to trade up to the fair value instead of down (or out).

Whilst you at it, look at the points scale. I.e. get rid of points in the fourth round since nobody values these picks anyways.
 
I was all for trading pick 1 but are happy to have Reid instead

Would also make taking Harry Demattia at pick 19 make sense

Best mates and fellow captains together
