Mock Trades

[MadAsHell 4,212]

Need something to keep me occupied until the real thing begins, so I thought I'd predict what trades we'd make and how we'll be looking heading into the draft.

Under the assumption that Collingwood & Hawthorn get band one compo for Thomas & Buddy. Picks 11 & 19. Carlton get band 2 for Betts, Pick 21. We get band 3 for Sylvia, Pick 24 and Richmond get band 5 for White, Pick 51.

Trade Jetta & 4th round pick (59) to Freo for Michie and their 4th round pick (74).

Trade Pick 2 to Brisbane for Rockliff and their 2nd round pick (29).

Trade Tapscott & Pick 29 to Hawthorn for Savage and their 2nd round pick (38).

Trade our Sylvia compo pick (24) and our 3rd round pick (40) to Essendon for Myers & Colyer.

Extend Taggert & Nicholson's contracts for 12 months and delist Magner.

Sign Cross as adelisted free agent.

Head to the draft with picks 23 (Luke Dunstan or Patrick Cripps), 38 (Cameron Giles) and 74 (Chris Michaelides)

Rookie Draft with two picks: 2 (Jay Lever or Peter Steffe), 20 (Mitch Thorp, Andrew Ainger or Aaron Cornelius who'slikely to be delisted).

Wonder what other expect/hope to see?

I thought pick 3 was involved in band one somehow? Some crackhead was talking about us getting pick 3 (through band one) for Sylvia?

No chance we'll get band 1 for him. Band 3 is likely (24). If we're lucky Band 2, unlucky Band 4

In regards to the OP, those trades would be great and would really turn over our list. However i can't seeing us getting a second rounder back with Rockliff. He's contracted so Brisbane can afford to play hardball. I also don't think Savage will come to us as better primed teams (Carlton) are also into him. Lastly, I don't think Dunstan will be available at pick 23 but I'd be happy with Zack Jones or Patrick Cripps
