    Massive news! this changes things considerably.. we keep pick 2 and get one of the guns or our Pick 2 is more valuable than any other pick.

    Teeming hordes in red and blue pouring into Gosch's as I type. Cops concerned about riots, civil disobedience. Stock markets plummeted. Premier kept notified of developments.

    I may have read this wrong. Are they getting pick 1 and 2 or not. They said they weren't on trade radio.

    Yep, their priority pick is pick 2.

     They are getting a great ride here by the AFL

    Nope. Apparently they get pick 1 in this years draft, which bumps the pick they already have to 2. We are now at pick 3

    Incredible hand out considering some of the blame for their position should be on the Suns. Eg trading Lyons.

    Unbelievable really. They had a good hit at the super draft and now this. Top 2 seem clearly the best. Victorian players. Can you believe it? 

  • Quote

    It’s odd they have split Rowell and Anderson - maybe we have made an agreement to give them pick 2 for King?

    Shocking, he initially didn't read out that pick 1 was a priority pick, this is crap.

    Move on now.

    Yeah very misleading that first tweet. They get picks 1 & 20 as compo picks, then their real pick is pick #2.

    Seemed way too good to be true

    Let's not sugar coat it.

    First and last picks in round 1 this year then a middle round 1 pick next year and another end of first round the following year

    They can call it round 2 all they want but it's essentially 4 first round picks

    It's three years of draft assistance includes:

    • Picks No.1 and No.2 at the 2019 NAB AFL Draft.
    • The first pick of the second round (currently pick No.20) at the 2019 NAB AFL Draft.
    • Mid first-round pick (currently pick No.11) at the 2020 NAB AFL Draft.
    • The first pick of the second round (currently Pick.19) at the 2021 NAB AFL Draft

    That is two priority picks this year.  One at the start and one at the end of round 1.  The public dialogue was about either the start or the end.  Staggering that they get both!

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Adelaide

      Noffy, Hatchy and Randy lead Adelaide’s finals-hardened flock to IKON Park for a blockbuster semi-final against Kate Hore and Hanksy’s mighty Demons.  Adelaide has dropped four of its past five matches at this ground — let’s hope that trend holds.  But don’t expect charity — Doc Clarke brings an experienced, battle-worthy murder of Crows.
