    They'll also land something for McStay. Three picks inside of twenty and another in the early third round is something we should be able to work with.
    If we got 7 and another first rounder it'd make more sense for it to be next years so they can use 15 for points this year (either straight for points or in a pick swap of some sort)

    If we have two first rounders this year (including our own), and two next that would be great for drafting

    There is talk that Brisbane may be better if matching the McStay offer and trading him to Collingwood for multiple draft picks.
    Especially if the intend to sign Gunston as a free agent.
    This would then assist in father son points and trading for Dunkley.

    That all but assures Grundy (likely Henry) leaves. If De Goey leaves for first round compo Collingwood might want to trade too. If Grundy goes to Melbourne, they don’t need Lobb in the Jackson deal. If Lobb is traded then, it’s probably to us.

    Would Collingwood be interested? They will be dishing out picks for Mitchell, Hill and Frampton. The appeal to them would have been getting him draft pick free. The only way I can see them being interested in trading for McStay would be if De Goey left. De Goey would get them decent compensation so they wouldn't want to lose that by acquiring McStay as a free agent in return.

    Pretty sure McStay is unrestricted so it might not be their choice to make.

    Surely DeGoey does not leave Collingwood? I guess if he goes to St.Kilda he can do what he wants.

    Unless the Swans are about to swoop in and take him.

    Probably not. But not sure they should be interested in Mitchell and Hill but they seem to be.

    Collingwood may be losing a free agent, like DeGoey as BT alludes to and therefore that compensation is diluted.

    Stevo is convinced Dunkley will be at the B&F tonight.

    I wonder if he could win it?

    If he does, it strengthens our argument for 2 first round picks.
    W00F!

    It's possible. He's had a career best season when others have been down on their own high standards.

    Each player had patches but at different stages battled injury, form, or fitness.

    It would only fuel our need for two first rounders.

    Interestingly, Tom Berry's name has been floated with the Gold Coast today. Do we have any interest in him as part of a sweetner in the Dunkley deal?

    Judging by the coaches votes for the year, it would be reasonable to expect Dunkley to pip Libba and win.
    Would be a real shame for him to win the B&F.

    Big chance. You'd think Smith out to an early lead with Dunks coming home strong.

    I don't know how they do the votes?

    Assuming it hasn't changed from last year:

    At the conclusion of each match, members of the Match Committee individually award votes from 0-5 for each player. A player can obtain a maximum of 25 votes for any particular game.
