The Jackson FIX

The first clearance in that vid 😬 Read somewhere that when asked who he thinks should go #1 in the draft he answered ‘me’. I think his brother said something similar in his draft year

Would be genuinely surprised if an AFL recruiter told a VIC metro player to ‘keep quiet’ ahead of his draft year with the aim of not climbing up the draft board. Unless said in jest, that just wouldn’t happen.

If the account of the Steven May meeting is accurate, I have a new found admiration for him.

Is Ollie completely gone or a chance of another rookie spot? Felt he was on a good path prior to injury

Bloody hell I loved Trapper

Carlton have 9 & 11 but would want to move at least one of those one so it doesn’t get sucked up by their father-son Dean. Carlton 9 for our future 1st tied to GC to give us 7/8/9?

Have we committed to taking Sinnema? Does he get mentioned at all in any of the phantom drafts?

It’d be nice to select a kid from Victoria.

I’m not much of a conspiracy theorist but it wouldn’t surprise me if the AFL accidentally give them an ok draw

Well technically 2 + 28 (not 13) is close to exact from a points view so if you could squeeze 2 + 13 out of meth coast then I think we should hire you in Lamby’s team!

I’m not sure how you would know that…. Bbq? Objectively though (ie looking at draft pick points values), 2 & 13 for 7 & 8 would have to be up there with one of the most lop-sided pick swaps in history. I’d love if we could get it done, but I think it is a fair way off reality.

For those suggesting we might swap 7/8 for 2 and a pick in the teens, the equivalent points value of 7/8 is more like 2 & 30. And yes, I understand the points system isn’t everything but I guarantee you Wet Toast would be quick to point it out to Melbourne if we started sniffing around pick 2.

Toby Greene and his family got a rude shock last night when Clarry lobbed on his doorstep with a duffel bag and an attitude.

Pardon me but how are Hawthorn a B-? They shuffled some picks around and fumbled a top-5 player in the comp.

Did he pen that from the toilet? Incredible

As it stands, our current picks aren’t really in the market for either of these players

Other people write the recipes for him. He is actually an average cook in real life. True story.

To be clear, either we get Humphrey or we WILL NOT deal Petracca.

So it turns out saying it over and over again doesn’t actually make it happen? Hmmm… weird.

Not convinced BH is the only reason we wanted GC involved. Not saying it wasn’t part of it, but when you look at the draft hand of Adelaide v GC and the needs of GC given their academy kids, I reckon that was equally influential

Plausible. That scenario would give GWS a net gain of +350 draft points

I like Steele but my query is how he works in a high-rotation midfield set up - would be great if he could have an impact up frwd

Could well be planning to use the other bits and bobs we pick up in the deal to better 24

Not sure if this has been said on here yet but no Bailey, no Trac.
