Something doesn't seem right to me with this pick 13 business.

How sure are you that it is part of the Hogan trade? It doesn't make sense to me why GC pay less for MD1.

I'm getting a sick feeling that if pick 13 is gone, GC have it. And we have a player that doesn't want to be on our list.

Someone tell me it can't be possible.

And who is a FIGJAM.

Actually drafted by the one and only Barry P.

Spot of revisionism going on on the boards.

No, Neeld drove this one. BP may have been the recruiting boss at the time but it doesn't mean he was the decision maker.

as you said Caddy is very unlikely as he has said melbourne is virtually his last choice! Like the sound of these though :) good work

Any truth?

I still have hopes for Gys

Not sure how truthful as it was stated as just rumour. I would say most likely would be for Dawes as we seem to be chasing him pretty hard

Heard this morning;

Adelaide - Pick 13

Sydney - tippett

Pies - Sam Reid

Demons - Dawes

Came through a friend who was talking to Sam Kekovich, according to him we are pushing extremely hard for Dawes

Something must have changed for WCE to be interested in any member of the Morton family. Pretty sure the Morton family burnt that bridge to the ground.

Hope we keep Evans.

Maybe thats the Key Utah, the bridge is now the 'Gap'. As maybe, the gap to Sydney has shown.

Lift & Seperate, looks the goodes.

Pick 13 is apparently going to be used for about 4 different trades now according to the media...

A tad convoluted. We'd only need trade 13 for Dawes, everyone else can do what they like, doesn't directly affect us so why so involved.

Might be the eventual result,but not our requirement

Spot on why would we trade a top pick and get the worst deal?

Posted

I didnt get it either why do we need to help Adelaide and Sydney out to strength their lists when we could deal directly with Collingwood, The only thing I could think of his Collingwood didnt want pick 13 for Dawes, they would prefer a ready made replacement.

I am with you Born to Run, I didnt like it either when I heard it, I think 13 is paying well over for Dawes.

I would hate that trade.

yeah everyone else seems to have done well out of it apart from us!

If the repeatedly reported trade of 3 & 13 for Hogan & 20 goes through, I'd say Dawes for 20 would be a comfortable result. Bear in mind we also have the Rivers compo pick which could be about late 20s.

Martin for Ray would be a loss for us IMO, would take a late-ish pick on top of it.

Every deal the media spits out works against us. They have an agenda...

Kidding yourselves if anyone thinks a Rivers (alone) pick is a first rounder. Even with Beamer going our nett result is one (1) loss as we gained Byrnes.

I'd expect a mid to late 2nd rounder at Best.

If the 20 pick comes our way then the Pies might go for it. Their wallet's a bit light on trading picks, the poor dears ;)

    UP IN LIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Those who watched the 2024 Marsh AFL National Championships closely this year would not be particularly surprised that Melbourne selected Victoria Country pair Harvey Langford and Xavier Lindsay on the first night of the AFL National Draft. The two left-footed midfielders are as different as chalk and cheese but they had similar impacts in their Coates Talent League teams and in the National Championships in 2024. Their interstate side was edged out at the very end of the tournament for tea
