How do we end up getting pick 4 and keeping pick 5?


All our 2nd round picks & late first rounder to GC, as they need points to match academy bids & their pick 4 would be absorbed into matching for Walter at pick 2.

Later picks give points to GC to use on NGA players.

I’d imagine a future first might also be involved. 
Happy to load up!

Possibly.

It is scary to possibly give up so much for Reid, if we in fact can get him..

If North get Pick 3 for McKay, I expect they'll trade Pick 2 & 3 to West Coast for Pick 1 and steak knives (maybe Gaff after all).

 

Reckon they'd want 1 + WCE 2nd rounder (about 22 or 23) for 2 + 3

Our future 1st would allow GCS to bank some of this year's draft value into next year, that way they use lesser picks for matching points this year

Pick 5 and JVR to West Coast for pick 1.

As a massive JVR fan. I still think we’d consider that. But respectfully decline.

Norf will be silly to do that trade. Make WC sweat and call out Curtin. I think we should instead make a play for NOrf's 2nd pick Pick 2 for 5 and 15. is a fair trade. Norf end up getting Watson with 3, McKercher with 5, Sanders with 15 with  NGA. We can also throw in Tommo to give them KPD stock for 2024 to sweeten the deal. 

We either get Curtin or Reid. 

 

Knee injury at 2.44

Hopefully not serious

Edit: only minor but probably won't play again this season.

Bendigo Pioneers star Harley Reid is highly unlikely to play again this year, with the No. 1 pick favourite set to be placed in cotton wool after suffering a minor knee injury on the weekend.

I agree. Pick 2 is Reid anyway. North know it and won’t trade it. WC won’t trade 1 as they’ll miss Curtain. I think Reid is inevitably off to North.

I actually think this has already been arranged

I’m all for it depending on what comes with pick 1.

4&5 is a lot to give up. Harley would want to be even better than I already I think he is.

I'd do it, whether WCE would depends if they were sure Curtin would be there at 4. Then the added bonus of getting another top 10 player.  If they don't we get 2 top 5 players like Duursma, Watson, McKercher and or O'Connor. Then we pick K.Brown as a late pick 89 or a compo pick for likely departures like Jordon etc.......  then if we get more spots or trade we could go for a Liam Henry and or Georgiadas from PAdel if we lost Grundy.

How it could transpire would be we get Reid at 1, Gold Coast match their top prospect Jed Walter at 2, North go for McKercher, Hawks go for Duursma and WCE get Curtin. Only real spanner is if North go for Curtin to replace a departing McKay. If we can't get 1 then we go for plan B see above and trust in Lamb, Taylor and their crew.

North could even grab Duursma considering his late season form. Wouldn't discount Watson from being in the conversation for both North and Hawks as well.

Give the West Coast Losers nothing.  Last thing I want to see is them becoming a powerhouse again and we helped them along the way.

I've said it before, JVR is worth more than pick 1. JVR is proven, Harley Reid is not.

Bundling up our natural first rounder, our two 2nd round picks for this year & our future first.

Edited by ChaserJ

If we manage to snaffle pick 4 along with pick 5, either trade them for quality players (unlikely given our cap) or bring in 2 quality kids. Watson and McKercher please.

  • REPORT: West Coast

    On a night of counting, Melbourne captain Max Gawn made sure that his contribution counted. He was at his best and superb in the the ruck from the very start of the election night game against the West Coast Eagles at Optus Stadium, but after watching his dominance of the first quarter and a half of the clash evaporate into nothing as the Eagles booted four goals in the last ten minutes of the opening half, he turned the game on its head, with a ruckman’s masterclass in the second half.  No superlatives would be sufficient to describe the enormity of the skipper’s performance starting with his 47 hit outs, a career-high 35 possessions (22 of them contested), nine clearances, 12 score involvements and, after messing up an attempt or two, finally capping off one of the greatest rucking performances of all time, with a goal of own in the final quarter not long after he delivered a right angled pass into the arms of Daniel Turner who also goaled from a pocket (will we ever know if the pass is what was intended). That was enough to overturn a 12 point deficit after the Eagles scored the first goal of the second half into a 29 point lead at the last break and a winning final quarter (at last) for the Demons who decided not to rest their champion ruckman at the end this time around.

  • POSTGAME: West Coast

    Following a disastrous 0–5 start to the season, the Demons have now made it three wins in a row, cruising past a lacklustre West Coast side on their own turf. Skipper Max Gawn was once again at his dominant best, delivering another ruck masterclass to lead the way.

  • GAMEDAY: West Coast

    It's Game Day and the Demons have a chance to notch up their third consecutive win — something they haven’t done since Round 5, 2024. But to do it, they’ll need to exorcise the Demons of last year’s disastrous trip out West. Can the Dees continue their momentum, right the wrongs of that fateful clash, and take another step up the ladder on the road to redemption?

      • Thanks
