This is it right here, IMO we hold the current picks, on draft night the more picks we use the better offers we'll get for the 20's picks.

Thanks Caesar. I knew I the AFL would not have made it as straightforward as I posted. Thanks for the clarification
Isn't pick 6 cursed anyway?
If we have no intention of taking 8 players in the draft then we must be planning to trade up.
1 and 2 would be sweet. We could take Lalor at 1 and then deny Carlton the opportunity to get FOS who they clearly traded up to get (don't quote me on these suggestions for 1 and 2, just the impression I get, don't watch enough junior footy to really know). I suspect Carlton are nervous about that prospect.

Seems to be paywalled, oh well, I'll wait until the paper arrives in the morning and read it then.

So, I'd say a trade period where we made history in terms of a first round draft pick haul for a non-expansion club could indeed be called reasonable or naybe even slightly better than reasonable.

Loving the the darksider arse-covering going on right now. Don't ever change you guys, hilarious stuff.
Well played Blair Hartley.
Like an expansion team: Tigers make history on day of sadness, rebirth
The player exodus means, like the former industrial, working-class suburb they hail from, Richmond will again be Struggletown. But on the measure of longer-term prosperity, the Tigers have absolutely cleaned up.

Same here. I only buy this paper on Thursdays.....but now at $4.80!!!
No.
We could (and should) be using the latter two picks to trade into first rounders (probably plus some) in 25'.
We can utilise this as a two year launch.
Patience grasshoppers.
Harley Reid.
Hyper aggressive pitch. An offer he cant refuse.
And trade for him with future picks in the tassie expansion years
Indeed, we have the choice to trade up this year or trade for more next year.
Good position to be in.

Armstrong is a person of interest Mr D.
Possibly the only one.
Folks who know rate him. I dont as i dont like his contested marking. But what do i know? Nothing. Thanks but it was rhetorical.
Reports and reporters with inside stories say he is the best. So lets believe them.
Who takes him?
(I need to keep it simple to start with so no change to draft picks yet)
Not I says Richmond at 1 and 6
Not I says North holding chocolates.and flowers and a card with a big T
Not I says Carlton with the 2 best full forwards and no success
Should I says the Crow, unlikely but what do they know
And Melbn says I do.
But wait there might be a medicated fly.
Can the Dees score at 9?
Do the saints care?
With a double hit they can bring home a mid and a tall. Smalls? JoeBerry is safe, Rossco has kicked Gresham to the curb and doesnt need more. But Battle is gone and King has no queen / forward partner. Do they take Armstrong?
Thats what we need to find out...
If the saints want Armstrong then tie dees must jump at 5.
Plus north take Tauru.
That leaves a mid to slide to us at 6.
No need to trade into 2.
But if saints are cold, then Dees take the mid at 5.
And we get crumpets.
Armstrong, of interest.

100%
We must trade upto take the 2 best mids in this draft FOS / Lalor imo
#6 will be compulsory for north to accept a trade and will be unconditional on there part
But we should not give more than pick #18 along with that (preferably #20)
We will now need the best development coaches in the comp. No cutting corners from here.
Regardless what happens with the kids that have gone.
Blair had got ultimate return on all 3.
The media can bag the club on how cheaply we lost them and I've always said if you don't want to wear the jumper see ya later.
I love Bolton love Graham love Baker but I'm really sad losing Rioli, because he alongside Bulter and Castagna turn us into this tackling Hugh pressure football team, that turned us into this powerhouse for 5 yrs.
Thank you to all. But we move on.
