Re: Tim Callan?

I mentioned it to a few Geelong supporters and jokingly have said that its the first step in the plan to get Jimmy Bartel....

Seeing as that they are close

It's now just the finer points of if it's a 4th or 5th round selection. My understanding is that they have agreed to a range of a pick (say a pick between 45 or 55) and depending on the next day or so it can be completed. This is one trade that will go through.

If we can't get a alte second-round for Power (or someone else) might we just swap second round picks with Geelong for Callan? (I think Sockeye was hinting this might happen on bf.)

In other words, we get Hudson and Callan for pick 22, with pick 34 going to the Crows. Geelong aren't going to use many picks this draft so don't really need our 4th or 5th rounder, especially as their last pick is already taken with a fs.

This would be a pretty good outcome for us imo.

So we send 22 to Geelong for Callan and 34

And then send 34 to Adelaide for Hudson

Cant imagine Adelaide being happy with this as Hudson is worth more than Callan

Callan will be traded for I suspect an exchange of our 4th/5th round pick so that Geelong select a bit earlier - Geelong wont use that many picks so they will be happy to give us a pick back

I thought Adelaide had already agreed to receiving a second round pick from us (any second round pick as far as I know). If this is the case it's like the Ackermanis/McDougall deal last year when we effectively get two-for-one.

Geelong is using their last pick on an already nominated father-son so don't need to upgrade that pick. They seem likely to promote 1-2 rookies (Davenport and Lonergan) and so are going to struggle to find room for the mandatory 3 picks, let alone four. Makes much more sense for them to try and upgrade their 2nd round pick (and/or maybe their third if they want to have four picks).

Adelaide are probably being ripped off a bit if the deal goes like this, but it's still much better for them than having to let Hudson go in the PSD.

The papers have sepculated that Adelaide want between 22 and 29 as compensation for Hudson.

Fair point about the father-son, I now believe Callan will trade for an upgrade on a 3rd/4th round pick then. We will not be paying much for Callan.

IMHO theres ABSOLUTELY no way our number 22 is heading to Geelong as part of a deal for Callan. It might make more sense for Geelong but it is not going to happen. The most likely destination for pick 22 is Adelaide.

I can't see 22 going to Geelong either. I still don't think 22 is going to Adelaide either.
