One potential exchange is

Lions give Harry Sharp and pick 32 (584 points) 

Dees give picks 40,49, 54, 65 (1041 points)

*Brisbane get additional 457 points

*Dees then have 5,28,32 in draft …

Yes? No? Maybe? 

Nb …Equivalent points match for picks 49,54,65 is roughly pick 32. Dees giving up 40 for Sharp.  ?!?!?! But actually it’s more like MFC giving up 49 because Lions would only give up pick 32 for picks that deliver much “higher points” in exchange. 

🤔Dees also could exchange MFC 2025 future 1st for 2024 GC Pick 13 to get Four picks in first “32” … JT 🧙‍♀️

We might need to have a late pick for Noah Yze.

    Personally don't think he gets picked up.

    To be honest, I would like to think we don't get sucked in by the Yze name because talent wise, he's either a late rookie or he goes undrafted. 

    He didn't get any invite to the national or state combines which speaks volume as you at least need one AFL club to register an interest which he didn't.

    He was tried in a few positions this year with little success in any.

    Not sounding great for him at this stage.

    Reported Nth after Dons pick9. We may have to chase GC's pick 13. They will want a future 1st and picks in this draft.

    We should take pick 5 to the draft. There may be a couple of KP's available around 13?

     It looks a race in two between the Pies and Demons, who have thrown big pick offers at a number of clubs in the hope to land another first-rounder in 2024. Gold Coast's call will be trade period-shaping one given the impact on Houston.

    The issue for Bombers is that Kanga’s future pick, whilst appealing, does nothing to help them match Kako bid in first round.

    Saints keen, a new favourite emerges?

    Also, Hawks now looking to trade into pick 13...after trading away pick 14?

    Of course it does, it doesn’t absorb their 1st pick and they can use later picks

    Wowzers, that's a good deal for us if we can make a good fist of it next year.

    Cheers Bombers.

    Given it’s looking more likely than not that we’ll have first round father son in K White next year trading out for good return this year is genius…

    Good deal for us to get pick 9. Dons get more than enough to get the discounted Kako.

    We get a good mid at 5 and maybe a KP at 9?

    White next year probably a 2nd or 3rd round bid?

    We probably agreed not to bid on Kako with either 5 or 9 too, that's a big bonus for Essendon.

    Twomey suggests further action by us. A swap with North. Picks 5 and 9 for pick 2 and 25 plus maybe 44 or the future 2nd?

    Hope not i would rather go 5 and 9.

    Could we slide back? 5 for Saints 8 and 27 or something to that effect

    Pick 5 & 9 puts us in the box seat for a couple of champions, thanks Mr Lamb, reckon JT will be ecstatic if this comes off.

    • REPORT: Brisbane

      “Max Gawn has been the heart and soul of the Dees for years now, but this recent recovery from a terrible start has been driven by him. He was everywhere again, and with the game in the balance, he took several key marks to keep the ball in the Dees forward half.” - The Monday Knee Jerk Reaction: Round Ten Of course, it wasn’t the efforts of one man that caused this monumental upset, but rather the work of the coach and his assistants and the other 22 players who took the ground, notably the likes of Jake Melksham, Christian Petracca, Clayton Oliver and Kozzie Pickett but Max has been magnificent in taking ownership of his team and its welfare under the fire of a calamitous 0-5 start to the season. On Sunday, he provided the leadership that was needed to face up to the reigning premier and top of the ladder Brisbane Lions on their home turf and to prevail after a slow start, during which the hosts led by as much as 24 points in the second quarter. Titus O’Reily is normally comedic in his descriptions of the football but this time, he was being deadly serious. The Demons have come from a long way back and, although they still sit in the bottom third of the AFL pack, there’s a light at the end of the tunnel as they look to drive home the momentum inspired in the past four or five weeks by Max the Magnificent who was under such great pressure in those dark, early days of the season.

    • CASEY: Southport

      The Southport Sharks came to Casey. They saw and they conquered a team with 16 AFL-listed players who, for the most part, wasted their time on the ground and failed to earn their keep. For the first half, the Sharks were kept in the game by the Demons’ poor use of the football, it’s disposal getting worse the closer the team got to its own goal and moreover, it got worse as the game progressed. Make no mistake, Casey was far and away the better team in the first half, it was winning the ruck duels through Tom Campbell’s solid performance but it was the scoreboard that told the story.

    • PREGAME: Sydney

      Just a game and percentage outside the Top 8, the Demons return to Melbourne to face the Sydney Swans at the MCG, with a golden opportunity to build on the momentum from toppling the reigning premiers on their own turf. Who comes in, and who makes way?
