Yeah great deal given our situation and Coffield's general situation. Good to get him in the club day 1 of pre-season too

Functionally we got Coffield for a future 4th which might as well be nothing considering how rarely those picks seem to be used.

But we got an upgrade of 11 points too. So F4 less points this year. Means in net effect an even lower F4. Good trade.

Glad that's done. Good trade outcome.

Re: Welcome to the Kennel - Nick Coffield

Sounds like there was a complicated deal happening involving multiple clubs

Re: Welcome to the Kennel - Nick Coffield

I like us bringing in Coffield. He's a solid all-round defender who can play on a variety of players and he's a pretty decent kick.
Lets hope he can get as fit as he can and he's right in the mix for a senior spot from round 1.

Good. It?s only 11 more points but Coffield comes in. So we are up on points and used a F4. I?m very happy with that. Coffield should be considered free.

It could end up being a little more BT once GC use their picks to match bids and our picks move up the order.

For example should we move up 3 spots pick 40 turns into 37 (483 points) and 52 & 56 become 49 & 53 (520 points). We gain 37 poinys in this scenario. Should GC further split their picks so long as they are before ours it could increase further.

Was just about to post that turning one pick into two might also be a sneaky way to gain points as the bids eat up 2nd and 3rd round picks. Means 2 picks are moving up the list instead of 1

Yeah, I don’t think there’s any question about him being capable of best 22 on talent and ability. It’s going to be purely about his ability to get on the park. But a pretty low stakes high upside pick at that price.

What's Greta got to do with it?

Yep. I think I calculated the other day a bump if 130-150 points once bids start getting matched. Which will hopefully cover Lual if he slides even with Croft around Pick 10. If he gets to 12 it’s all gravy.

Sorry Ms Thornburg.

Go dogs!

Re: Welcome to the Kennel - Nick Coffield

Like many picks in the draft there was discussion back in the day on if Coffield could play midfield at AFL level. I know he has to get in the park first, its an interesting question.

Really like this trade, basically a free hit for mine and we know if fit he can easily be best 22 within this group.
