I forgot to mention that they also said that Kemp may be there at 14 and 17 too. If we could get Kemp and Weightman (for pick 8) it would be a no brainer

On today’s Road to the Draft Podcast, they said that the Dees were keen to split pick 8, and suggested we might do it with the Cats, for 14 & 17. Also suggested Weightman might still be there at those picks. Went on to say that we weren’t going to risk loosing the player we want at 8 though. So I’d assume if we (somehow) knew we would get Weightman at 14, we would trade 8, take Weightman at 14, and take 17 to the draft.

7 & 10.

Yes, if you look at who is available, I would rather 7, 8 & 10 (personal opinion)

Best result would be having 7,8 & 10 imo

I agree, and think he could legit go at 3, even though I would rather others (same at 8 too)

Yes. Jack Higgins is even this mentor

No, we wouldn't take 7,10 & 15. I also doubt we would get Freo's 7 & 10, for 3. But if a bid is going to come in early for Henry (there is a rumour Sydney are going to bid at 5), then maybe they will want our 3,to get ahead of it (and possibly get Jackson).

I suspect we would take 7,8 & 10

Can anyone who is a subscriber let us know what it says?

I have mentioned this before in other threads, but feel it’s again relevant here: If you listen to this interview, this “draft guru” says that we might trade pick 3 for a couple of picks in the teens. Surely not..

Yeah I even went back to listen a 2nd time, to make sure I heard right lol

I don’t doubt that, I was just surprised that he said we might trade 3 for two picks in the teens.

I remember at the time he was considered a top 5 talent, but slipped way out. Even at the time they were saying that the Pies got a steal.

You say he is highly respected, but in this interview he says that we might trade Pick 3 for a couple of picks in the teens. (I wrote this in another thread, but it seemed relevant here too).

It’s a worry, this guy is meant to be one of the experts

Thinks Flanders is a chance at 3, along with Young. Also says that the Dees are considering trading 3 for two picks in the teens (wtf?)..

When asked about Weightman, and other good small forwards, he pointed out how rare they are. He also said that when we traded for 8, we didn't have a specific player in mind.

When asked, he also said that Green was in the mix, and pointed out that we have bid on other academy players before, with the intention of actually taking them. He also mentioned Henry in passing. He hinted that there could be many potential trades of our picks.

I think he was meaning he would be a forward early in his career.

I could be wrong, but isn’t there a rule that, if you trade out your future 1st, you can’t trade out picks from any other rounds (unless you have more than one pick in a round)? If this is right, it would mean the best we could hope for is their 1st & a 3rd?

Yeah he is one of those players. He likes getting in the face of the opposition ?

I watched the Vic Country vs SA game & he kicked 2 in the first quarter, another in the second and another in the second half. He is definitely a goal kicker, he only needs one opportunity and he’ll pretty much kick a goal.

At the time of this post, I didn't think that this was going to happen. But the more I've thought about it, the more it makes sense, and I now think that realistically, it may occur. Fingers crossed.

Yeah I heard him say that too. It was on Trade Radio
