[Not my real age though]

lol, sorry mate didn't know about the mortgage.

It's just that I'm retired and I recommend it .

LOLOLOLOLOLOL - My retirement days are about 10 years away - and then it will be filled with days full of "Danger Noodles" and "Nope Ropes" as well as a few "Pairs of Crocs"

[Sainter_Dad]

Short answer - yes

[kosifantutti]

The first pick will be pushed back anyway with Nick Daicos going to the Pies as pick 1.

An early start to this annual discussion.

The numbers may change - but the pick does not - Nick Daicos is not available to us (or anyone else aside from Collingwood) therefore it does not affect the draft numbers. You may as well call Father/Son and Academy etc picks as 1FS and 1A and retain the #1 mantle. Fathers Son picks have the same relevance as the Mid Season draft picks - they do not affect the draft order - saying we have pick 10 - is still pick 10 - even if the moniker of it is 11 - we are still picking what we consider is the 10th best player in the draft that is available to us.

The only way it doesn’t affect the Saints is if there is a Pies pick before 9 that gets wiped off due to the bidding.

Otherwise, North’s pick 1 becomes pick 2 on bid match for Nick Daicos.

No - FFS

The only way it DOESN'T affect St Kilda is if Collingwood DON'T match - then Norths pick becomes Nick Daicos and we get the 8th best talent when we were expecting the 9th. There is no way Collingwood wont match the bid.

No Father Son Picks
1 - Player A
2 - Player B
3 - Player C
4 - Player D
5 - Player E
6 - player F
7 - Player G
8 - Player H
9 - Player I

With Nick Daicos going at #1
1 - Nick Daicos
2 - Player A
3 - Player B
4 - Player C
5 - Player D
6 - Player E
7 - player F
8 - Player G
9 - Player H
10 - Player I

Aside from the moniker of #9 vs #10 how does Nick Daicos affect our draft position? We still get Player I or the 9th best talent AVAILABLE TO US?????

Seriously people - My name is still Sainter_Dad whether I am 59 years old or 60

At present I am the 3rd oldest at work - someone else comes to work that is older than me - I simply become the 4th oldest - I am still the same age.
THE DRAFT ORDER DOES NOT CHANGE WITH THE INSERTION OF FATHER SON - ACADEMY PICKS as they are surplus picks.

Concessional Picks - FA Compensation Picks - that changes the order as a talent that WAS available to you is now not available as say Richmond (if they lost Dusty to FA) has had 2 picks when they used to have 1

Is this an annual discussion? I can’t recall this before.

Why is Daicos not available to us?
If nobody picks him in the first 8 picks, we can name him at 9.
If Collingwood doesn’t match, we get him. If they do we get bumped to pick 10 because 9 players have already been chosen.

Absolutely an annual discussion - there is usually people whining about how our pick will go from 9 to possibly 12 etc.

Daicos is absolutely available to us if Collingwood do not match, however:

- Son of a Club Legend
- Touted to go in the top 3
- Collingwood can get him for 36, 41, 44, 45 - plus a few places slipped in 2022 depending on where he goes

North NEED to nominate him 1st to ensure that it costs Collingwood the most.

Imagine Roo's kids touted to go at 1-3 - do you think we would let them slip to 9th?

[kosifantutti]

So you’re saying pick 9 becomes pick 10.

[Sainter_Dad]

So you’re saying pick 9 becomes pick 10.

No - I am saying that the 9 best talent (in our opinion) will be our pick - regardless of if it is at Pick 9 or Pick 12 - Unless Compensation picks fall before our pick.

[kosifantutti]

Well I reckon if 9 players are picked before your go, you will get the 10th best player. We can call it pick 9 if we like but there's still 9 players picked beforehand.

The bit that people don't seem to grasp is that Nick Daicos is not available to us.

When we get to our pick there will be at least 8 players not available to us. I’m not sure why Daicos is different to anyone else.

Because he is not really part of the draft pool being Father Son

It is like going to a Buffet - paying the Buffet price and wanting to eat the Lobster

[kosifantutti]

Was Biggy Nyoun part of the draft Pool?

[saynta]

Was Biggy Nyoun part of the draft Pool?

We declined to match Richmond. He was our academy player.

Yet to play out if it was a mistake of not.

Did his ACLthis year.

Biggy is

hugh though. His brother used to go to my gym. He was big too.

[B.M]

Is that Gach Nyoun?!

He was wanted by police for armed robbery and assault last I heard?!

I didn't want to retire but come Friday, that's it. I've had a few months at home and am getting used to the idea. As part of my recuperation I set myself one job a day to tackle around the property. At the rate I am going I'll still have plenty to do well past my 100th birthday!
