Meaning Champion is on the market until pick 40?

No changes to the draft bidding system this year, but they have relaxed the NGA bidding rules from this draft, as in you can bid on them anywhere from Pick 1. Both items were ratified by the Commission this week.
So they changed after dogs got JUH in 2020,
And changed it back for 2024?
Jeez, what a *smile* circus,
They cant even communicate rule reversions clearly
I had to have a couple of looks at it as well. Change, change, change back for this year. Then maybe the 10% discount comes in 2025. Or 2024 .??
With Gold Coast struggling on the road and last few rounds they will be desperate for a Dan Rioli to add some premiership experience
Dimma should also bring the complete the deal approach from tiger land.

If they can give up their 2nd pick for Lachie Weller, surely 2 firsts isn't out of the question
There is every likelihood in 2 years from now we will have drafted 8 very high quality young players.
In 4 years we will have 10.
Almost half the side...skilled,young,fit and hungry exciting young Tigers.
We will be competing again around this time I believe....it will take an active and aggressive trade and draft THIS year.
Do nothing will get nothing.
I am sure Blair has planned for this . Coming last is a necessary cost. Means nothing to me....future success means everything.
Next year is of no consequence...we will be last or close to it. 2028 and thereafter.

And Shanahan kicked 4 goals in the VFL today. A good prospect. I would prefer J Whitlock over Simms though. Whitlock appears to have a much bigger tank, and is a really good athlete for a big boy. Can ruck as well.
IMO our most important positional need moving forward is a gun key power forward and if Sims is as good as those three, especially Lynch, we take him at number 1. There is no standout midfielder this year, as in previous years, but they run deep in depth as everyone is saying. You build great sides around one or two gun forwards so we go Sims if he is that good, can’t risk other sides picking him up later. We have Balta and Gibcus as our key backs and both could also be swung forward at times if needed. Then with our other picks in the draft just load up on midfielders and small forwards because from what everyone is saying there are plenty of them this year with similar talent. We have enough back flankers and wingers as it is. Any other holes in our list can be filled via recruiting from other clubs or rookie draft. Go the gun athletic power key forward as our first pick I say.
Best player first, especially with pick 1. From the little I've read n heard the best of the key forwards look to be rated toward the end of the first round of the draft. Depending on how many first round picks we manage to gather for this year, a couple of premium mids and then a premium key forward. If ya can't get the ball and deliver it to advantage properly it's pretty pointless having a fancy big forward rummaging around his ankles all game trying not to fall over.
I agree in that scenario. I am saying that if he will be as good as Lynch, as some have inferred, he should be our first pick. He is obviously then not as good if he goes late first round. He will be no Richo or Buddy or Lynch. More Logan McDonald and there is no way I would squander our first pick on a player like that.
We’ve got that many picks, I’d be inclined to bring in key two forwards. A monster and a more mobile type.
Lynch and Jack went alright together. Simms and Faul has a nice feel about it.

Typical. Every bastard is always trying to rip us off for something.
