On the optimistic side, you'd hope that next year's pick was somewhere between 30 and 36 ?. Going with the 'Sunshine & Lollypops' scenario, the next questions to ask are: What does next year's draft crop look like compared to this year's? Where will our current 2nd round pick slide to in this year's compromised draft?

Okay, but curious as to why, considering the compromised nature of this year's draft, you'd offer next year's pick instead of this year's?

Seeing what looks like grey hair...contract worries?

Arrogance of their supporter base Fuelled by the AFL's biased treatment towards them across the doping scandal Large supporter base. The irony of point 3 being that most Melbourne clubs have a large supporter base when things are going well. We dominated the % of crowd support during the finals played at the MCG in 2018.

Not seen him play. Did get some praise in some of the Magoos reviews this year . No idea if that counts for much.

If those rumours were true then it looks like the Bombers have royally stuffed it up.

I do share that concern. Talented players don't want to squander their career on a no-hoper.

Word on the street is they're changing the name of their training facility from The Hanger to The Hurt Locker

The rumour mills (reliable or not) suggest that the suitors are GWS, Sydney, Hawthorn Their respective currency in terms of trade picks stands as: GWS: 28 46 66 SYD: 3 22 54 56 HAW: 4 21 41 43 59 67 What permutations, including player trades, would you consider fair value?

On a more serious note, re dealing with Hawthorn, would the following be in the ballpark? Pruess for pick 43 and a swap of the remaining 2nd and 3rd round picks to sweeten the deal for us. We get: Pick 43 Pick 21 Pick 41 Give up: Preuss Pick 23 Pick 47 Obviously only considering the above if no other clubs offer a 2nd round pick.

Pick 4?

Welcome to Demonland @Altona-demon...nobody gets out of here alive.

Is your first name Sam?

Thanks for that. Appreciate the insight.

What position / role does he play?

@Redleg, altruistic as always.

Get well soon @picket fence

"oh, is it okay then if I wear my old Hawthorn gear so no-one will notice?"

Are we putting Pick 63 on the table?

Never heard of him (not joking).

NO, YOU CAN'T HAVE HIM. However, if you're looking for a Head Coach...

Well they already know that @Bay Riffin, the MFC are renowned for elite kicking skills.

Yes, good endurance runner. Cops a whack here because he fumbles too often and disposal can be a bit iffy. That being said he seemed to be improving as the season wore on. Could be a useful addition to a side like the Crows who are rebuilding and will need some seasoned players to support / take the load off the youngsters.

@Dannyz could you please remember to put the hyphen in...it's grammatically correct and VERY MFC.

Quite refreshing to hear a commentator not talking about himself.
