It's easy. Leak that we are definitely taking Tauru if available at 5. The North/Richmond trade is then pointless. Tauru goes at pick 2. We pick a gun mid at 5. Easy.

I’d be happy with this result: 5) Jagga 9) Tauru

I would be happy with any of Lalor/Smith/Langford, but would not be surprised if we take Tauru at “5”. Just seems like a possible JT pick to me.

I could see us taking The Viking over Armstrong.

AFL Draft Expert (Chris Doerre ESPN/Knightmare) @AFLDraftExpert With the quality of Hawkins, Dixon, Daniher, Brown, Reid, Casboult all retired and Taberner presumably not getting another go, expect clubs from this draft and in future drafts and trade periods to start overpaying for key forwards.

For whatever reason, we were linked to Jefferson from day one.

If we’re not taking the Viking at 5, we have to make out like we are. That way, if North want him, they can’t trade with Richmond, and have to take him at 2. This leaves us with an extra top 5 ranked player to pick from, probably another gun mid.

Can someone please put up a summary of this? https://www.heraldsun.com.au/sport/afl-draft-2024-every-clubs-picks-and-the-young-stars-they-could-land-in-november/news-story/f0e39a7d1c1249d02db1b4ae351ed705?amp

On today’s episode of Gettable, Cal said we would be looking at Lalor, FOS, Langford or Jagga if they were still available. If not he listed a second rung of mids, including Allan, Smillie and others. He said we could fit a gun young mid into our team.

Can’t remember exactly, but I think it’s only like a couple of days before the draft. He does start to talk/write about who he thinks will go where earlier though.

We tried to trade up twice last year, and have done so in previous years.

If there is someone we really want, trade pick 9 for GWS 15 & 16. Then trade GWS 15/16 & 5 for pick 2. Leaving us with 2 & 15/16. When we traded for 9, Cal T. did say that he definitely thought we would trade more with our picks.

This has us taking Langford and Tauru. I'd be very happy with this result.

Yeah I’m hoping we get Lalor too, but I’m guessing he goes at pick 1. Maybe we split 9, and trade up to pick 2?

This video is a bit old (6 days old), so it doesn't take into account our Pick 9 trade swap. But it is interesting, showing all of the potential type of trades teams (including us), could be involved in. The Things Richmond & St Kilda Would Do For Sam Lalor...

This is quite a good rankings video: He does it by player type though. The Best 15 players in this years draft 1. FOS 2. Lalor 3. Draper 4. Smith 5. Ashcroft 6. Lombard 7. Smillie 8. Langford 9. Allan 10. Tauru 11. Trainor 12. Hotton 13. Reid 14. Travaglia 15. Berry

This new rule has really worked out great for us.

Do they say how North are planning to do this?

Can someone please post this article?

Can trades go through on the weekend? I'm guessing not.
