Correct. Though it depends on where Bedford gets bid on. If someone bids on him before pick 28, then we will have to use that pick on him. If it is after pick 28 but before pick 54, then we use pick 54 and pick 62 slides slightly. If it's after pic 54 then happy days.

When I heard we were after pick 28 I was pretty excited. Happy to see we've managed to get the deal done.

Perhaps we are up to something? Maybe trying to get into the first round.

They actually didn't based on the points system....

Bye Jesse.... it is what it is. I'd love to see us give GC pick 6 and pick 36 and get back May & pick 24.

hahaha

4 way trade maybe? Dees, Freo, Brissy and Suns

People keep saying this but it is not different to any other club. Grundy goes down, Collingwood are stuffed. Kennedy or Darling goes down, Eagles are stuffed. Martin goes down, Richmond are stuffed.

They got up one spot so technically they received pick 15, Burton and Mayes for Wingard.

If we get a player Ed Langdon would be the one I want. Obviously Cerra or Brayshaw would be a dream, but I highly doubt this will happen. Langdon will add another high pressure player in our froward line and some needed speed.

Scully's ankle is [censored] and Wingard is a downhill skier. Plus they are losing Burton who is a very promising young gun. Had a poor season this year but was a gun in 2017.

Legend!

With my namesake already departed, I've decided to go early on a new display name based on the impending arrival of KK. @Demonland could you please update my name from Is Dom Is Good to Collar-Jazz-Knee Photo to follow....

Byron Pickett

WTF are Freo up to? They are seriously a shambles.

Agreed ProDee. I'm comfortable with 5 and 23 as I think we can make that work for us in some way such as a swap with the Crows. Pick 5 by itself is massive unders in my view and would be a fail by Mahoney and Co., even if it nets May & KK. There is being pragmatic and then being a pushover and this would be pushover levels. I was comfortable with the Lever deal last year as he is an outstanding talent and two later first round picks are different to a top 5 pick, but it is important we get fair valu for a player of Hogan's talent.

The only other option I see as palatable is if we already have an in principle agreement to send pick 5 and a 2nd rounder to Adelaide for picks 8 & 13.

Sounds more like stand over tactics.....

That's what Bell is attempting to do.... unfortunately for him he would never be able to reach

I believe it's Jason Dover

A mate who actually spoke with Lachie on Friday. Obviously it is dependent on the Bell-end but the feeling was it's pretty much finalised. The Hogan deal I was assuming. I highly doubt the Dockers will want to lose Neale without a 'big fish' to show to their supporters.

Word is the Neale deal will be done tomorrow. I assume the Hogan deal will be done on Tuesday and then the May deal finalised on Wednesday.

That article suggests it will get done once Neale is traded, as everyone already thinks. Freo are just using tactics to try get the best deal possible, but obviously they aren't trading with amateurs so we will have our 'walk-away' price and that is fair enough. Pick 5 and 2019 2nd round will get it done, which is a bit disappointing as I think he is worth pick 5 and a pick around 15-18, but that is really just crying over spilt milk. We will send 5 to GC and hopefully get a 2nd pick back to use in the draft.
