Re: Predictions from here
I am not sure the Lions will take 25 for Longer and we may have to send 18 or 19 for him but I hope I'm wrong.
This would then mean we have to possibly send Stanley to Port for pick 14 to get the 3 inside 20, although I doubt Port will accept this?
I agree with Bruce in the PSD. It will be an interesting couple of days. If Brisbane accept 25 for Longer we are home free!
I think we will take Aish at pick 3.

When Harvey played his first game in 1988, I was a 12yo wearing short pants and struggling with my readin', writin' and 'rithmetic in grade eight. Now, I'm a father of three and a retired AFL player. And he's still going. Amazing! - Michael Voss

Re: Predictions from here
Will GWS be a certainty to take Boyd? Will they want Patton, Boyd and Cameron all in the same forward line? Is that viable? Probably is.
Did Buddy going to Sydney pretty much snuff the possibility of him slipping to pick 3...I'm dreaming aren't I.

Re: Predictions from here
Offer 25 to both clubs, tell them that one club will get 25 and the other nothing as we'll take that one in PSD. In a dream world we could get Bruce for 41, and take longer in psd, keeping 25 to use on garlett & delisting TDL & Dunnell if needed

Re: Predictions from here
I think we should offer 25 & 41 to Brisbane for Longer. Let Bruce walk to the PSD.
GWS took 48 for two players today yet won't take 41 for a 21 yo that's played 14 games!
Seriously! They can get <edited by mods>!

Re: Predictions from here
problem with longer going to the PSD is that GWS might take him. or melbourne.
bruce to the PSD on the other hand is just a risk of melbourne taking him.
unless we pay him too much.

Re: Predictions from here
With GWS having picks one and two, there is more of a chance of Boyd slipping to three than there was when he had to get past GWS and Melbourne. GWS might feel that they dont need another big forward.

Re: Predictions from here
My prediction:
25+19 > port for 14 + 34
Port 19> Brisbane for Polec
Saints 18> Brisbane for Longer
This deal is fair for all
Saints lose 18,19,25
Saints gain 14, Longer, 34
Port lose 14,34
Port gain Polec, 25
Brisy lose Longer + Polec
Brisy gain picks 18,19
I know we are keen to keep 3 in the top 20.. but Longer is a top 20 pick.. butbIMO 18+19+25 for Longer +14+34 is good trading
14 will get us a gun, possibly a slider ..

Re: Predictions from here
yeah, but melbourne didn't really need a big forward either, at least nowhere near like they need mids.borderbarry wrote:With GWS having picks one and two, there is more of a chance of Boyd slipping to three than there was when he had to get past GWS and Melbourne.

all i know is if he doesn't go pick 1 he should go pick 3.

Re: Predictions from here
I like this SuperDuper… just wonder what Port have in mind with pick 14 in the draft… I'm sure they would rather keep 14 and get Polec for 34 if they can. Are Adelaide offering the 23 Vince pick?SuperDuper wrote:My prediction:

Re: Predictions from here
Not too bad, what if we squeezed 29 out of Brisbane and did a swap of 34 and 29 just to keep 3 inside the top 30?SuperDuper wrote:My prediction:

What if we then swapped 14 to GWS for 22 and Bruce?
We then have 3, 22, 29, 41
Bruce
Longer
Delaney
Savage
Or simply swap pick 29 to GWS for Bruce and have 3, 14, 41.
Or go the PSD route
Take Longer on a 6 year deal, no one will match
Bruce for pick 25
Then we have 3, 18, 19, 41
I want Bruce.
It really comes down to how we rate the talents of Bruce and Longer.
Is Bruce a top 25 talent on this year's draft?
Is Longer a top 20 talent on this year's draft?
I think the answer is definitely yes to Longer, maybe to Bruce.

The boy can play and we can build a defence around him that will have respect.
