We simply cannot have another season like this year’s. Despite finishing 17th, we are (ironically) in the premiership window right now, and we have to go for it - full bore. Great move - Josh Mahoney is a gun at trading picks IMO. I love it. He’s a Gun at throwing out valuable second rounders for nothing. Edited October 15, 2019 by Bay Riffin Quote

If GWS don’t come to the table, they effectively “lose” their high 1st round pick on Green (which they could use later picks on). Do a deal with us then they use pick 3 on the player they want and later picks on Green, effectively 2 top 5 picks for pick 3, later picks and whatever they pay us. Quote

Lachie Ash is Jayden Hunt 2.0. Runs away and boots it to no one . Would be a shocking choice at 6. Quote
billyblanks29 184 Posted October 16, 2019 Posted October 16, 2019 I'm worried if we give up 3 we lose Caleb Serong, who will go 4 or 5. He's a very good footballer. I suppose at 6 we could get Sam Flanders as a similar type player, then Weightman at 8 which is a bit overs for him IMO. Quote

Rubbish. he's a good kick, shown great leadership, reads the play well and is consistent in his position. you should probably know what you're talking about before you plot players because you clearly have not seen him play. 1 Quote

Have you seen his highlight reel? Almost all his kicks are OOTF/to an opposition player or smothered. Just ran and booted it Into no mans land like Jayden Hunt does. Not a player I would want to spend a top 10 on. Edited October 16, 2019 by olisik Quote

It's because he tries to kick when running at full speed under pressure. a very easy thing to address and fix up. if that's the worst problem he has he's in a very good position. Quote

Nice PO. A slight variation?... ?? Pick 3 - same deal ?? ?? Pick 8 - to Hawks for Smith, 11 & 42 ?? 42 to Adelaide for Jenkins & peanuts ($300k to ensure the Cats have to at least pay a tad more if they want him...yeh what's up pussycat!). ??

The Stigga 1,097 Posted October 16, 2019 Posted October 16, 2019 At the end of the day, we are giving away pick 3, the third best young talent in the country. That's a lot for mine, we better be asking for plenty back in return. Quote

No complaints for me. greatly increase our speed and class on the outside address small forward need re-enforce key targets forward build on young core add on field experience and leadership all major areas of list concern addressed is a success in anyones books. don't mind the idea of offering up the future second to the Crows for a last minute hail mary at Alex Keith potentially.

If the rumour of us knocking back the GWS offer of Pick 6 and a future first is true, then I'd say that's a fair indication of us playing hard ball for the pick. 3 Quote

Need to agree to disagree. Hunt has spent years and still does it. i am in the Stephens camp for pick 6. Dead-set gun. His highlight reel is up there with Oliver’s. Quote

Cam Schwab's Whiteboard 209 Posted October 16, 2019 Posted October 16, 2019 Not sure if this has been floated, but what if GWS offered 6 + 40 (Tomlinson compensation) + 2020 1st for Selection 3? I think it should be a player like most here, but if there is no possibility of getting a player what would it take? Quote

GWS 2020 first selection is diluted so it won't help us much either. The value needs to be closer to what GWS will receive out of the deal from a net perspective. In effect if we help them out GWS are going to draft 2 top 5 rated players from this draft, they better be willing to offer up something better than that IMV. 2 Quote

Unless we can realise a net gain equal to if not better than what GWS stand to reap they can G.A.G.F...... 4 Quote
