They are the picks we are about to receive for Hogan, see the earlier posts. You can do this in make believe.

Been reading Twitter have you? Hogan isn’t going anywhere. Love #ETthetradebreaker.

I'm happy to brand anyone who even remotely believes Hogan will be traded as slightly thick. 

It ain't happening. 

Ever?

Just for now, my good friend.  There are still a few poor souls trying to argue him being traded is still a chance in this trade period.  It just isn't happening.

Part of feeling the Hogan trade may still be an option and I acknowledge it is still only a remote possibility is that Melbourne , Freo and Hogan May have known about this for some time. If so the targets for those picks may have already been identified.

Still? It never was!

So they will trade a player that literally just signed a new contract ummm ok.

Gives us plenty of time to court some clubs RE: a pick upgrade with our second rounders.

Am I clinging to hope unrealistically? :lol:

I'm thinking that sending #66 to Freo means that #47 is in play for the draft. Just vague speculation.

Maybe.

Off: 6? = Watts, Lumumba, Trengove, Hulett, Kennedy, Garland?
On: 3? = Lever, Balic, J.Smith?, 29, 31, 36

Edit: This is incorrect - please see below post from LH

Only speculation as mentioned, but my thinking was that we would have better compensated Freo if we weren't using a later pick. Thus for the three ins: 47, a second-rounder, and something packaged. Still, I wouldn't be surprised though if we just see the #47 used in some odd positional jockeying up and down the draft order.

I'd say they may be looking to do a 2 for 1 upgrade and maybe pick up a de-listed free agent as well.

I thought we would be able to use all 4. If we add J Smith to the list doesn’t that give us 36 and we are permitted 40.

Slight update, Fifty:

 

Spencer has also left.  So 6 out (exl Garland).  J. Smith is in and we will use pick 84 for him.

So atm we have 3 list spots but 4 live picks.  

Re other poster comments, we can only use pick 47 if Garland agrees to retire before the Draft (or we delist someone else, highly unlikely as all players are contracted).

OK you're absolutely correct thanks!

So I should have posted:

Off: 7? = Watts, Lumumba, Trengove, Hulett, Spencer, Kennedy, Garland?
On: 3? = Lever, Balic, J.Smith?, 29, 31, 36, 47

Should be asking Richmond if 29 and 31 for 15 would work.

    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
