Or Fremantle pick 18 points 985 still first round for our Pick 27 & 47 worth 1019 we would then have picks 7,8,13,18 not bad all first rounders with that draft hand we could reshape our team.
What do Fremantle require points for?

Cause I once saw him defending against Geary.
He was caught out one on one in a marking contest.
The little dog was in perfect position, Geary out of position.
Geary monstered the little dog as if he wasn't even there.

It was so special to see little Geary do the monstering on someone even littler.

Our first goal of the 2020 Elimination Final. Remember it well. Geary then handballed to Membrey to walk it in.

Would you do?

#7 & #8 (as they stand now)
For #3 and Barass

That values Barass around pick 19/20.

I’d still take #7 & #8 to the draft.

Or

#8 & #27 for GC #6
That should pretty much guarantee us two gun mids. Doubt Richmond would caulk at #8 for Rioli.

Keep 7 and 8, sit back and let everyone around us get their knickers in a knot

Not gonna happen.
They would be asking for 7&8 for 3 with nothing else.

I would look to offer Essendon our future 1st round for there pick 9
I have herd some talk of us offering our future 1st and pick 27 why our future 1st is predicted to be between 1-6 in 2025 so why give up 27 as well, crazy!
For Hayes we might get from Collingwood pick 52 and our 47+27 worth total 1274 for GWS pick 15 worth 1112 points which is a win win for both parties as we would then have picks 7,8,9,15 not a bad draft hand I would say.

Waiting for the right moment, allowing opponents to exhaust themselves while preserving our energy and maintaining emotional control to capitalise on others’ mistakes.

You have obviously never heard of “one in the hand is worth more than 2 in the bush”
Predicted to be between 1-6, could be 18-20 if we win the premiership and there is FA compo paid.

Stop using the points as an indicator of the value. It is useless unless you are dealing with bids.
The fact that you want pick 15 over picks 27+47 is the same reason GWS would want it, and to get them to give it up, they would need to get something they want out of the transaction.
This year, the points mean nothing to them.

Also, if Hayes goes anywhere, we won’t get anything. His value to other clubs is that he would be a free swing.

GREATER Western Sydney has met with St Kilda defender Ben Paton as the Giants survey their options for ready-to-go recruits.

With the club losing experience during this year's trade and free agency periods, the Giants have been looking at players as possible delisted rookie selections.

Paton played four games this season, for a total of 71 at the Saints across seven seasons with the club as a small defender.

It's a big no to Soldo says the saints due to his knee issue , saints say they are a bit gun shy selecting injured players.

Oh well, not a major loss. We do need a competent back up for Marshall, though.

I doubt there's anything else in the works

What is he worth, a pick in the 50-70 range?
#47 & Paton for #37 would be a win.

Such a shame he broke the leg, he really looked like becoming a player before that injury.

Good luck to him!

We tried to turn Paton into a midfielder when he was a small lockdown defender. Never really played that role under Ross. It's a shame, he will succeed if he plays that role.

I would be going for future 3 rounder and Paton for 37 I think we would need 47 to get points for our Academy boys if we go for them or Father son in Peckett.
