He's gone.

I loved her in Ghost.

So our next pick will be Bedford or have we gone cold on him?

So far they have interviewed 18 Brownlow medalists.

Now p26.

No, we have dropped down to p25.

Agree. Think Jimmy Toumpas. He was a very good outside mid at junior footy but couldn't get his own ball.

Just as important, what's he like as a footballer?

What are his stats...height, weight, position etc

Didn't we do the same with Jetta some years back?

Does Sturt fall into the same category as Bedford as being one of our academy picks. They are both Dandenong Stingrays boys.

I feel a sadness, an empty feeling. They give you such joy for the very short period they are with us. But oh the memories......Jessie, Liam and Mitch.

Thought pick 23 could have been used on Billings before we traded with St Kilda for p28.

God how many times you want to say this? We get it

These bunch of amateurs just got us to a preliminary final. you seem clueless in negotiation skills.

Totally agree

Its an interesting point you make. Obviously this has been discussed but I wonder if Suns would be interested in accepting our 2019 first pick along with pick 23 (Freo) and 32 (our first pick) for May and KK and we go to the draft with pick 5. As you say they have heaps of very high picks that can be slightly spread over 2 years.

Has the club re-signed Kennedy Harris?

Who said we have offered 5 to Suns?

Wonder if Harley Bennell could be the steak knives?

Wouldn't be surprised if that pick 5 goes directly to Adelaide for their pick 8 and 13. We then pass on pick 8 to Suns and go to the draft with pick 13. That would be a good result.

All Mahoney wants is to get May and KK to the club. If the Suns agree to pick 11, which they haven't, then he will accept Freo's offer. Otherwise the club is more than happy to keep Jessie. Who cares whether we have received unders and paid overs. Mahoney has achieved his objective like he has in previous years.

Is this something you know as fact or are you guessing like everyone else which means your opinion is no better or worse than the ones that you have chastised on this thread.

Agree. The AFL should introduce a minimum draft pick requirement based on the contract $$ amount and length of contract. So if Freo is offering Jessie $1.2m/yr over 4 years then that equates to a certain number of points that is converted into draft picks / players. Freo has to offer the minimum unless Melb agrees to something lower (in the case that Melb just want to offload Jessie at any price).

We could convert pick 5 into 8 and 13 from Adelaide and trade pick 8 to GC. It places Adelaide ahead of PA at pick 6
