Picks 5 & 6

[Redleg 40,926]

Could this happen?

"IF", we retain pick 3, meaning Viney goes to second round and Dogs as rumoured swap picks 5 & 6 for U17 pick 1, could we swap pick 3 for 5 & 6 with GWS and trade pick 4 for U17 pick 2.

If we assume GC keep pick 2 and select Toumpas, my view is that GWS would be desperate to get Grundy to fill a major need. Pick 3 would probably get that done. 4 is more gold.

Hypothetically that could give us something like Hogan, Wines, Stringer and Kennedy/MacRae etc plus Viney. That's 5 good players for 4 original picks.

How good would that be as a start to rebuilding our list?

After my head stopped spinning I actually arrived at the view that this is a nice piece of lateral thinking.

GWS would need to really want Grundy...... maybe if we could trade a decent compo pick back to them say a second rounder we get for Moloney and Rivers

it would be GWS giving up Stringer and Wines ect for on Grundy......doubt Grundy is this good otherwise we wouldnt do the trade

i think their may be chance if we bundle it as one trade. 3+4 and a decent compo pick

for 5-6 and U17 pick 2

I know this is the same as you said basically aside from the compo pick but you made them sound like 2 trades, i dont think 3 is enough for 5/6 personally but maybe if pick 4 is overs for mini draft pick 2 this compensates it all?

Change the meds Red, they're doing your head in. Must be, it's doing ours ! Lol

Love the notion Redleg.

If GWS really want Grundy they will need 3...

Funny things happen in trade week. Unlikely but you never know. Clubs involved would be all getting what they wanted.

Highly unlikely, but a great idea

I find your ideas intriguing and would like to subscribe to your newsletter.

I can't see the Bulldogs swapping picks 5 & 6 for MD#1. He must be a once a generational type player Martin for the dogs and it's supporters to wait 12 months. (Even though McCartney stated last night that the Dogs are at least 6 years away from being something).

And I'm not sure on face value that they'd be happy in spending 5,6 for MD#1 whilst we've snagged MD#2 with pick 4.

In answer to your question though it would be a great start. I do like the strategy.

Wasn't the proposed doggies trade 5 & 6 for MD 1 & 9?

depends on where 9 comes from? caddy i assume

I think the report was:

Picks 5 and 6 (WB) to GWS

Dom Tyson to Richmond

MD1 and Pick 9(Rich) to WB

This might've been debunked since reported though. Tyson sent a tweet saying hes more than happy at the Giants.

Won't even be a chance if we have to use 3 on JV.
