    Gives the Suns time to strike a deal for the other two picks

    GC probably have the same philosophy as us. Get a deal done early and move on to the next one.

    Plus these discussions would have been going on for weeks.

    10 and 17 are of interest if Gold Coast had them from the Dogs for 4.

    Same basic scenario, though not quite such a premium pick.

    Would a future first and a collection of our points-effective second-rounders do the job?

    1 X top 10 and 2 X top 20 picks (second one could be high depending on dogs season next year) for pick 4 is a high price IMHO. Id prefer the 3 picks. They must be really keen on someone and think that we are keen on them as well.

    Agreed, I think the market is a bit skewed at present. No current player is generally considered to be worth three first rounders of any kind... but unproven top draft picks are. Strange to me. We would have received less for Oliver! 

    Think I read somewhere the Dogs are keen on Watson.

    Dogs are paying overs; they must be very keen on someone.  It’s also a strange move as they’ve commented on the difficulties of building their list after having to use so many picks on JUH and Darcy.

    I hope we go hard for GCs new pick 10.

    Not sure how we beat the Dogs offer of Picks 10, 17 and Future 1st?

    If that’s what they are offering they are just plain stupid. Pick 4 is not worth that much at all. My guess is it’s 10 and F1 and we can definitely beat that with our collection of 2 and 3rd round picks and a F1.

    deal is seemingly done, as outlined

    Well it’s 2 for 1 since they have a father son they want to get a pick before, if they wait till pick 10 they probably have to use it already. So they can afford to pay overs

    Using next year’s R1 pick is the concern.

    Sure but I don’t think even in dogs worst fear they would end up with a pick 4 next season so they are effectively paying next years 1st and alate 1st round this year for pick 4

    Assuming croft nominates them, which I'm sure he will, it's a smart play.

    • POSTGAME: Carlton

      A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.

    • PREVIEW: Carlton

      Good evening, Demon fans and welcome back to the Demonland Podcast ... it’s time to discuss this week’s game against the Blues. Will the Demons celebrate Clayton Oliver’s 200th game with a victory? We have a number of callers waiting on line … Leopold Bloom: Carlton and Melbourne are both out of finals contention with six wins and eleven losses, and are undoubtedly the two most underwhelming and disappointing teams of 2025. Both had high expectations at the start of participating and advancing deep into the finals, but instead, they have consistently underperformed and disappointed themselves and their supporters throughout the year. However, I am inclined to give the Demons the benefit of the doubt, as they have made some progress in addressing their issues after a disastrous start. In contrast, the Blues are struggling across the board and do not appear to be making any notable improvements. They are regressing, and a significant loss is looming on Saturday night. Max Gawn in the ruck will be huge and the Demon midfield have a point to prove after lowering their colours in so many close calls.
