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

    A West Coast supporter just rung up SEN with a trade suggestion:

    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.

    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.

    • POSTGAME: Essendon

      Despite a spirited third quarter surge, the Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, remaining winless and second last on the ladder after a 39-point defeat to Essendon at Adelaide Oval in Gather Round.

    • GAMEDAY: Essendon

      It’s Game Day, and the Demons are staring down the barrel of an 0-5 start for the first time since 2012 as they take on Essendon at Adelaide Oval for Gather Round. In that forgettable season, Melbourne finally broke their drought by toppling the Bombers. Can lightning strike twice? Will the Dees turn their nightmare start around and breathe life back into 2025?

    • PREVIEW: Essendon

      As the focus of the AFL moves exclusively to South Australia for Gather Round, the question is raised as to what are we going to get from the  Melbourne Football Club this weekend? Will it be a repeat of the slop fest of the last three weeks that have seen the team score a measly 174 points and concede 310 or will a return to the City of Churches and the scene where they performed at their best in 2024 act as a wakeup call and bring them out of their early season reverie?  Or will the sleepy Dees treat their fans to a reenactment of their lazy effort from the first Gather Round of two years ago when they allowed the Bombers to trample all over them on a soggy and wet Adelaide Oval? The two examples from above tell us how fickle form can be in football. Last year, a committed group of players turned up in Adelaide with a businesslike mindset. They had a plan, went in confidently and hard for the football and kicked winning scores against both home teams in a difficult environment for visitors. And they repeated that sort of effort later in the season when they played Essendon at the MCG.
