Welcome to the Kennel - Nick Coffield

[mjp]

Why? How?

Because when we played Geelong late in the year he posted that we should offer unconditional support for the duration...than 10 minutes later criticised the coach for the Tom Stewart match-up. I replied saying:
Tweet 1- We should all offer unconditional support.
Tweet 2 - criticise the coach.

...and was blocked basically immediately. No abuse, no inappropriate language...anyhoooooo

That's pretty funny.

HUN:

Dogs likely to get Coffield for second/third round swap.

Dogs likely to get 49 for Sweet.


Let?s say worst case it?s just one third back from Aints, Pick 56

Then:

48 - 302
49 - 287 (589)
53 - 233 (822)
56 - 194 (1,016)
69 - 49 (1,065)
72 & 75 traded or thrown away

= Croft at basically Pick 10. If he slides, that?s the points if Lual becomes a live option.

Also, as GCS have a ton of lower picks to burn as they match bids our picks will slightly increase. Maybe only 100-130 points overall, but increase none the less.

We need 6 list spots open. So I’m assuming Croz & Bedendo will join McLean in the our column.

Do 72 and 75 have any points value BT?

Please and thank you.

72 has just 19.
75 has none.

They might nudge up ever so fractionally. But we’d need to open up more list spots than we have, so I’d say we are not going to use them unless we are moving two rookie spots to the main list which would cost more money than the points would ever be worth.

So I’d say we would look to potentially trade them or just pass on them. For points purposes.

They don't NOW but on draft night after all the late picks get used on bids they might. 4th round last year ended up starting pick 60 didn't it?

By the time Croft is bid on (say 10-13) they won’t move drastically higher in points. By the end of the draft perhaps. But Power hasn’t indicated we are interested in drafting late. If there’s 55-60 picks as rumoured/projected, it matters little.

So probably won't be useful for a Lual bid then?

I don’t think so. Lual needs to get to Pick 41 to be ours (218 points) but at Pick 56 is free. So say he gets to about 150 points. That could be bridged from as little as Croft going at 11 (not 10) and say two GCS bids before ours nudging our picks up. Both highly likely events.

I doubt anyone is interested in the picks is there’s only maybe 60 picks overall but who knows, maybe we can trade them out for a F4.

Might be relevant for latish points trades, even if not for Croft, or even matching a Lual bid should he fall that far.

Coffield could be a great fit for us. Can play on a range of opponents and that should be a positive. Third tall defender and having Naughton, Richards and Coffield from the same draft could set us up for a few years to come.

Providing we can get him fit and he stays that way he should be able to slot into the side for us. 3 x 1st rounders doesn't happen often

There are a few gaps starting to appear in that draft group

#3 Paddy Dow is swapping teams after under-performing for the Blues
#6 Jaidyn Stephenson isn't meeting his potential and joined a 2nd club'
#7 Hunter Clark is an okay player but hasn't quite met his potential
#8 Nick Coffield looks very likely to land at the Kennel after missing 2 years of football
#10 Lockie O'Brien has been delisted by the Blues
#11 Aiden Bonner is in a holding pattern with North and might be delisted and it's his 2nd club
#13 Jarrod Brander is not on a list
#14 Matthew Ling is not on a list
