List Management for 2020/21

Pick 12 is now 13 according to the latest draft order here

That's wrong I think. Collingwood finished higher they've got 14 Cats 13 (Kelly deal WC future 1st). We are 12. Unless something's changed?

Thanks for that. Yep, certainly makes sense. First rounders are worthless to us. Actually if we were to somehow prize picks 7&8 from ess for Dunkley, I wonder what we would do with those ? Maybe 7 to Coll for treloar, and 8 for another player ?

Essendon have to get those picks first - currently held by Carlton and Adelaide.

Hang on, why are Collingwood in front of us? Are draft positions not based on results after finals rather than ladder position at the end of the regular season?

I was thinking back to Ratugolea. I don't really rate him, and I'm not sure I would be comfortable with trading him in to do specifically this, but is there any merit in playing him as a tall defender?

He has the size and athleticism to go with anyone, is aggressive in the air and is definitely more physical than any of Gardner, Cordy and Young. I'm not at all sold on it but do think he could develop in the role as the main stopper. I mean if Liam Jones can do it despite being useless at ground level then why not Esava?

Yeah West Coasts (which is now Geelongs) should be before St.Kilda and Collingwoods and after ours making us 12.

You are right, that link is a month old and out of date, here is the current order (we have pick 12):

Official draft order: Your club's picks ahead of the Trade Period

At the moment yes, but they will get carltons pick 7 for saad and a top 10 compensation for Daniher which would be 8, pushing Adelaide back.

[bornadog]

And will likely be shuffled back even further with potential free agency compo (they are talking Daniher receiving band 1 now) and other academy bids. However the theory remains the same.

Edit: wrong link BAD

Thanks.

I did a search on AFL.com.au and that is the first one that came up. I should have checked, but also shows how good their site is.

Their site is awful. Just awful. Their latest update just ruined it. They even got rid of the match centre top scroll banner with all the games. And now the front page is just full of useless videos with no relevant news anywhere. It's impossible to find anything.

Was compared with Majak earlier and the move seemed to work for him.

Thanks Axeman, you certainly bring law, order and structure to the perplexing footy questions

[wimberga]

Trade radio suggesting that moving pick 12 to Adelaide has been discussed. They've got a heap of picks.

If we could somehow also negotiate for the Crows to NOT bid on JUH that would be stellar.

What benefit do they get by bidding? Is it just incase we don't match?

It will warm the cockles of their spiteful, black hearts.

Great post.
