    Re: Welcome to the Bulldogs: Bailey Smith

    Where's BT? We need sensible trade scenarios. All I can come up with is Rowell plus 3 firsts because Bailey is so awesome and I think it's fair.

    Don't the suns have a few more highly touted academy players this year? They'll need points for them.

      If this all ends with us getting our first back then consider me whelmed.

            I'd be very surprised but it would be a bit interesting if we got our first round pick back off them for a Baz to GC trade. Perhaps we could also get a 3rd rounder off them but I suspect they're chasing points this year. They will want to get ahead of when the bids come for Leonardo Lombard and Lachlan Gulbin. There might be another one in the mix as well.

            I think it's very unlikely that he moves interstate.

            GCS have Daniel Rioli on their radar as well. I think this rumour isn't accurate.

                Well they need to trade out (by the looks of their academy kid) our pick and the end of First Round (tied to North). So they’d part with them happily.

                I’d say that’s not enough. That could wind up being maybe say 15 & 23.

                If they added in their first which could shuffle to 8. I’d give them our F1 & our third (tied to them) after trying to hand them our second and third this year.

                Then it’s say 8, 15 & 23 (after shuffling in the order) for Smith, 45 & F1.

                Dogs: 8, 15, 23 - for - F1, 45 & Smith
                Suns: Smith, Lombard (Academy) in Top 10 and two Firsts next year - For 8, 15 & 23

                Dogs Draft Pick Hand: 8, 15, 23 & 33


                Yes, the Suns are paying absolutely top dollar. But if the want to attract a big name and the AFEL want his brand up there. Then they pay it, with the AFEL giving him ambassador cash to help the Suns cap out.

                  They need to potentially trade their firsts out for Lombard if the phantoms are right. Add in our F1 and some points for them this year and I think it balances out.

                  Ironically, it’s almost a mirror of our trade with them last year. A pick 6 midfielder for three first rounders with points/picks going back.

                    A simpler way of saying it:

                    (1) Our first next year, to get our first back this year.
                    (2) Pick 8 and upgrade from pick 45 into pick 23 for Smith.

                        In simple terms for me - Smith was a pick 6 as I recall. I want at minimum -pick 6 back and another first rounder.

                          That’s exactly/pretty much what that deal is their pick 6 which will slide/shuffle into 8 (& pick 23 is the North end of first round pick). We hand them a third rounder as part of getting back our first for our F1.

                            Thanks BT, I get confused with all this sometimes. Lucky you are around to explain it.

                                No chance that happens.

                                If we get pick 6 we walk away with a massive smile.

                                Depends on who we trade with unfortunately.

                                If he chooses GC then he's probably done us a massive favour.
