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.

Do they say how North are planning to do this?

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.

[adonski 11,262]

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

STIFFY ALERT!

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

Cheers Bombers.

Actually a great deal for the Bombers. Helps with their NGA pick in terms of it sliding back, and in terms of draft points the difference in value between just 28 + 40 and pick 9 is equivalent to pick to pick 44.

So for example, if we have a reasonable year next year, get a bit of luck and our first rounder ends up being 12, then Essendon have come out of the trade with the equivalent of pick 21 for free.

Of course, different drafts, different contexts etc, but it's a very good deal for the Bombers in their situation.

Tim Lamb strikes again. Demonland nuffies 0, Lamb 1. 🤦

[PaulRB 6,317]

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…

[Demonland 70,903]

 

[manny100 1,443]

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.

[BW511 2,612]

5 & 9 would certainly get the blood pumping.

DO SOMETHING!

[manny100 1,443]

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
