Random Task

On todays Gettable episode they described an early pick swap scenario involving us Gold Coast and North. Wasnt fully detailed but essentially would have seen North with picks 2, 5 and 6 with Melbourne getting 3 and North's 2024 end of first round pick after giving up 6, 14 and future 1st.

Few good ones here McCluggage Florent English Marshall Darcy Stewart Henry Cumming

At a guess... McAdam #23 Fullarton #27 Billings #14 ND 6 #4 ND 11 #6

Appreciate the response but wasn't ment to be a serious question. We've done ok but who knows how the future will pan out. We're definitely going to win the draft though

Everyone looks weird and ugly

6, 11, 42 and future 1st. Will be interesting to see what these picks turn into next month.

Essentially we've swapped Grundy for Fullarton/McAdam and Harmes for Billings. If we finish higher on the ladder than Sydney and Bulldogs then we've also upgraded our future 2nd and 3rd round picks in the process.

Did we win the trade period?

Why is your name a pale blue colour?

Stephen Powell and Clint Bizzell if they haven't been mentioned already.

ICYMI Essendons D'Ambrosio is apparently considered a delisted free agent under rookie rules and can move to Hawthorn via that mechanism. Essendon have been playing hardball with him to get a better pick and its been reported that they may not have been aware of this rule and the fact he can walk for nothing.

From foxsports REPORTEDLY DONE DEALS Melbourne gets Jack Billings, details TBC

Reid, McKercher, Duursma or Watson is your man then.

Thought there might be something to this when our name popped up last week. Gave me Lachie Hunter vibes from last years trade period. We need mature depth so not against this if he comes cheaply from a draft capital perspective. Has an excellent field kick on him. Can see him playing high half forward/wing with an occasional centre square attendance.

Certainly looking like Curtin is going to be the player left for us at pick 6. Assuming we can't get up any higher, I wonder if the club will take him there or have a different player in the mix like Caddy or O'Sullivan. I would be more than happy with Curtin.

No announcement yet either way for him. He's a cat B rookie so can be kept in addition to the list size of 42.

Going by the team contract list we have 34 primary listed players and 4 rookies for 2024 with D Turner counted as a primary listed player for 2024 and also including our recent trades in McAdam and Fullarton. We can have 42 max combined list so we can have 4 more senior players or 3 and a rookie, or 2 and 2 rookies. I think I have that right.

Think we have 4 spots, 5 if we move on K Turner. Can see us taking two at the draft, a mature recruit (Billings/Lycett?) and use a rookie or late pick for f/s Brown.

Anyone keen to add Scott Lycett or Sam Hayes for an 'in case of emergency' ruck depth?

Foot must be healing well

Looking forward to doing this dance with Adelaide again next year.

I reckon we could ask for more. If they take Reid and are desperate to grab our pick to take Curtin as well on draft night, we ask for future 1st and future 2nd. Maybe even their pick 23 this year as well.
