Not bidding on Sam Marshall with either 5 or a second first round pick will be part of the trade value for Brisbane. I really like him and would love to bid with a pick in the 9-11 range.

I doubt this deal will happen quickly.

We need to secure that extra first rounder if we can.

Brisbane need to do a deal with Richmond for pick 20 out and a stack of picks worth points in.

Then we'll probably look to do some kind of trade where we give them 40, 49, 54, 65 in return for 32 and Sharp.

He was pick 43 in the 2020 draft on the brissy website. We lost Jordan and got pick 39 from Sydney for him. So figure it will be around this mark or as articles say a combination of later picks. 

we got a compensation second round pick for jj - he left as a free agent, not as a trade

He’s a good runner and competes. Could fill the half forward or half back role.  I’m a Yes. Pick 54 seems about right.  
Probably deal could include us not bidding on Sam Marshall as a gentleman’s agreement 🤔

Has played 16 games over 4 years included 6 as sub

Lions have the best depth in the league so no shame in that

Great left-field moneyball pick up

Please explain the moneyball aspect to this recruitment?

Hope that Derksen is still on the cards too. Both of them could wind up failures like Fullarton, but at least it'd be positive to get in some players that are young but not 18yo.

Below average in every stat which is a little concerning. 

Yes he can run but no point being an elite runner when you cannot get the ball.

With Campbell and sharp as possible ins, how many more spots do we have? 
would have to think this closes the door on derksen, and squishes the chances down of yze and mentha both getting a gig. 

Brown, Brayshaw, Hunter, ANB, Schache out so far.

Likely: J Smith? Tomlinson?

Possible: Hore? Oliver?

At least 7, could be 9 out. Plus Cat B rookie KFW.

3 ins: Kentfield (r), Campbell, Sharp

Still 4-6 spots plus cat B. Mentha is cat B at best IMO. 

4 good picks in the national draft, Yze or another rookie maybe, Derksen or some other mature player (perhaps Hore).

18, 13 (both wing), 12 (half forward) in his 3 full games this year, averages about 20 touches in his VFL games.

It’s not his strength but I don’t think he’ll struggle to get the ball.

Mitch Cleary reporting that the Harry Sharp deal will happen soon.

Hope we can get Sharp and 32 for our combo of late stuff (whilst also keeping flexibility to get a future 1 and a late throw at the stumps for the Derka)

    2024 Player Reviews: #1 Steven May

    The years are rolling by but May continued to be rock solid in a key defensive position despite some injury concerns. He showed great resilience in coming back from a nasty rib injury and is expected to continue in that role for another couple of seasons.

    2024 Player Reviews: #4 Judd McVee

    It was another strong season from McVee who spent most of his time mainly at half back but he also looked at home on a few occasions when he was moved into the midfield. There could be more of that in 2025.

    2024 Player Reviews: #3 Christian Salem

    The luckless Salem suffered a hamstring injury against the Lions early in the season and, after missing a number of games, he was never at his best. He was also inconvenienced by minor niggles later in the season. This was a blow for the club that sorely needed him to fill gaps in the midfield at times as well as to do his best work in defence.

    The first round draft pick at #13 from twelve months ago the strongly built medium forward has had an impressive introduction to AFL football and is expected to spend more midfield moments as his career progresses.
