And your açcurate evaluation method is?

Don't have one; it's not really possible.

You could have some sort of points system like the one you're using and a coefficient based on the perceived strength of the particular draft in question, but it would still be a flat number, not allowing for things like a sublimely talented top 10, but little depth beyond that.

It will always be imperfect, so trying to apply any points system is inaccurate and a very rough guide at best.

Trying to say pick 43 & pick 21 is equivalent to pick 11 will never work, unless a team is willing to accept that deal because of the players that will be available to them, or what they can do with those assets to get another deal done.

Their value is determined by the market, not by a points system.

It's great as a rough guide, 55, but equating a plethora of mediocre picks to one good pick and applying a players worth by adding all these numbers up is not giving a true reflection of worth.

The lack of another model - other than case by case 'eye test' doesn't prove this more righteous.

it's just a highly contentious fantasy points system

all it does is waste countless hours of time and internet bandwidth with people arguing its fallacies and merits

it was generated for one purpose only and that was to add a better degree of fairness to father son and academy draft accountability

whether it achieves that aim is for future judgement

trying to use it for any other purpose is fraught with problems

use it for other purposes at your own peril but don't expect others to similarly waste their time

I used it to make a legitimate objective comparison of two trade scenarios involving Carlisle.

the formula provides a (dubious) method for evaluating the relative merits of new DRAFTEES (i.e. u18 KIDS) only based on pick number

you can't then just add in a mix of semi-mature and mature players with draftees and claim any form of "legitimacy"

Also, that points system tells me that I should trade picks 16, 17, and 20 for pick 1 - and that it be fair.

I mean - lol...

Yes all sorts of unlikely scenarios can be dreamt up but I used the model for a real scenario. The closest real scenario to the one you raise is 2012. That's Whitfield for Broomhead, Kennedy and Grundy. Who's lol now? Edited by Fifty-5

There should be a provision strictly forbidding clubs with Academy or Father/Son commitments from completing trades where only picks are exchanged. Trading picks for players is fine, but giving up a top 10 pick for multiple second rounders to bid on Academy players is clearly manipulating the system. It opens a can of worms that would allow Academy teams to collude behind the scenes and draft tamper. For example, Sheedy's relationship between Essendon and GWS could play a part in this.

Is there a provision which stops Academy clubs from trading out all their first and second rounders for established players, then hoard a bunch of third rounders to use for Academy bidding? It's the equivalent of paying for a car with a jar of 5c coins.

I will wait on that a few years...

Amen. Said the same thing to someone earlier. Not only are they paying coins but using a dodgy exchange rate.

To claim your academy/father son player you should have to use a pick in that round in the draft. It opens it right up when these clubs have worked out how to slide down the order.

Luckily we are switched on this year and getting in on the deals. Carlton, Essendon and us have now all used the clubs with academy picks to make win-win deals. In fact we probably got the lesser one of the bunch. Essendon and Carlton had huge steals.

On SEN they are saying he was filmed allegedly snorting a line of white substance. Will be on Channel 9 after 7pm.

Will fit in well down at St. Kilda. It's just a shame that the Saints Disco has been defunct for so many years.

Wonder if they sat on it until the deal went through...

With 100% certainty; Essendon infiltrated the media years ago. Robbo would be licking his lips right now; he couldn't hide his disdain for Carlisle on 360.

Jake's certainly not alone in his escapades though, could post half a dozen anecdotes I've witnessed of players on the icing sugar.

    HEAVEN OR HELL by The Oracle

    Clashes between Melbourne and St Kilda are often described as battles between the forces of heaven and hell. However, based on recent performances, it’s hard to get excited about the forthcoming match between these two sides. It would be fair to say that, at the moment, both of these teams are in the doldrums. The Demons have become the competition’s slow starters while the Saints are not only slow to begin, they’re not doing much of a job finishing off their games either. About the only th

    THE BLOW by Whispering Jack

    Narrm’s finals prospects took a crushing blow after the team’s insipid performance at Optus Stadium against a confident Waaljit Marawar in the first of its Doug Nicholls Round outings for 2024.  I use the description “crushing blow” advisedly because, although the season is not yet at it’s halfway mark, the Demons have now failed abysmally in two of their games against teams currently occupying bottom eight places on the ladder.  The manner in which these losing games were played out w

    HALF FULL by KC from Casey

    It was a case of the Casey Demons going into a game with a glass half full in their match up against the Brisbane Lions at Casey Fields on Saturday. As the list of injured and unavailable AFL and VFL listed players continues to grow and with Melbourne taking all three emergencies to Perth for the weekend on a “just in case” basis, its little brother was always destined to struggle. Casey was left with only eight AFL listed players from who to select their team but only two - an out-of-form

    Many warned that this was a danger game and the Demons were totally outclassed all game by a young Eagles team at Optus Stadium in Perth as they were defeated by 35 points.

    GAMEDAY: Rd 10 vs West Coast

    It's Game Day and the Demons have returned to the site of their drought breaking Premiership to take on the West Coast Eagles in what could very well be a danger game for Narrm at Optus Stadium. A win and a percentage boost will keep the Dees in top four contention whilst a loss will cast doubt on the Dees flag credentials and bring them back to the pack fighting for a spot in the 8 as we fast approach the halfway point of the season.

    WARNING by William from Waalitj

    As a long term resident of Waalitj Marawar, I am moved to warn my fellow Narrm fans that a  danger game awaits. The locals are no longer the easybeats who stumbled, fumbled and bumbled their way to the good fortune of gathering the number one draft pick and a generational player in Harley Reid last year. They are definitely better than they were then.   Young Harley has already proven his worth with some stellar performances for a first year kid playing among men. He’s taken hangers, k
