Pick 26, which was after Port Adelaide bid pick 7 on him, as he was highly rated by many clubs in that draft.

This information is pretty freely available, but I hope that helps.

No worries. Can you look up ‘rhetorical’ for me?

Zero chance we use 7 or 8, his highlights show flashes of kozzie-esque movement but not too much else.

Imo it's not between him and Dovaston - Dovaston an early first and Sumner Pickett a more speculative late first/early second.

Dovaston cake Latrelle cherry on top.

Good summation. No disrespect to the kid he looks a quality player but it sounds like we're being baited to use a higher pick on him. Clubs know he'll be a carrot to keep Kozzie happy, so others slip through.

If he's there at our pick 37, sure you'd take the risk. Picks 7 & 8 need to be guaranteed 200+ game players, and hopefully stars. I don't see that with Latrelle, and there are other more proven small forwards who have stronger athletic attributes. If his surname wasn't Pickett, I doubt he'd be getting any attention.

i think whilst similar enough dove and pickett are very different players, afl teams even our shoddy team of the neeld/bailey era have space for electric forwards. latrelle has a wicked side step and the type of goal sense u cannot teach likewise his balance. he can take a game away from u in 5 minutes with 4 goals and you wouldn't even be surprised, whether the timing for him is right with where our list is at now, think liam ryan and willie rioli as cherry on top mature age selections who got 6ish years out of themselves, or could he be a tippa, stengle, cyril and has that prime at 25-26 but then loses it a bit sooner too

Kysiah was a pick that we reached for. I am sure it took our ‘grade’ in the draft from the experts down to a ‘B’.

Pretty glad we had such poor judgment at the time tho

weightman went at 6 too, it is quite a similar connundrum to the dove v pickett debate on our hands this year in some ways, although weightman is more a leadup then a genuine small.

i think latrelles forward craft genuinely is a step above say a jesse motlop, he has lighter steps and quicker movement than jesse did in his draft highlights i just went back and watched them

A month ago this draft was so bad we traded out of it, now it's on our doorstep we're selling the future to have more pics in it...

We have to make up our minds 😂

a month ago robey and pickett were rookie picks and JT was laughing and he had already sold our first round picks so could sell to the members that it was so hence our exit, now not so much, those players are first round locks and we have to make two prominent choices

Weightman went pick 15 in the draft.

LSP… nickname “Lisp”??? 😁 Unless of course he speaks with a lisp in which case it’s back to the drawing board

What pick did we get Jack Viney for again?

pick 26 or so

Unsure where this hype came from. If his name wasnt pickett i doubt it would be there. He wasnt drafted in his draft year and has played SAFL reserves for most of the year.

Happy to pick him up with our current third pick, but i'm confused where the hype is coming from.

That 2019 was that rare draft with 3 gun small forwards. We liked all 3 but took Pickett at 12, with Liam Henry going to Fremantle at 9 amd Weightman 15.

Ah yes. But normally rhetorical questions make a point.

Sassy biatches.

I’m sure we’re smart enough as a club not to pick someone just based on their surname. Latrelle has talent but just how good he could become is a punt as it is with every draftee.

Hi back….

Rumour over on Bigfooty( decide on the size of your pinch of salt) that we are offering GC first and pick 37 to move up and grab LSP.

Jesus. I hope not

I don't buy it. We traded 23 to GC as part of the package that got us their F1 in the first place.

The vibe seems to be pick 24 that we traded to GCS (1st pick of the 2nd round) will be too late for Pickett

as i said the other day i think JT is feeling pretty stitched up at the moment, the two smokies he had in the back pocket have become first round bottlers because of the shallowness of the draft

I haven't read that thread and I have no clue when it was posted, but I have heard this and have respect for where it's come from. I'd suspect it would probably require something minor on top, but we are massively in the hunt for Pickett and are seeking to move into the second order of the first round in order to get him on the list.

Every chance this happens, especially given that there's a few clubs who would much rather trade into next years first round than stay in this years.

West Coast might be the play. Especially if Essendon trade up with them to get pick 2.

Gc F1 & 37 to WC for # 13 & 34. Or just GC F1 for WC pick 13.

WC spread a pick into next year presumably Ess trading up will give them an extra early pick this year..

If Adelaide are interested in Schubert then maybe 8 + 37 for 16 + F1. Would 16 be early enough for Pickett?

Actually, if Ess were to trade up, surely it would be their 5 & 6 for WC 2&13.. If that happens there's no other obvious avenues for us to trade into an early second..

I heard it was Essendon trading later points picks to GC for 15 and then 5 + 15 for 2.

Then trade GC f1 to west coast for 13 and 41

Turns 7,8,37 and GC F1 into 7,13,16,41 and Adel F1
