Yeah I think try negotiating a lot rather than reading books about it. Being black and white about saying there’s only one way to do nearly anything is not a great approach in my opinion.
Yes in theory.It looks seems some posters aren’t aware of the value that can be had from them. Then argue the value of them with others.
Only useless if you don’t know how to use them to upgrade picks.
That was the whole point in us accumulating them.
But you can’t force someone to take the pics you are offering based on their cumulative points value alone.
The other party may have their own agenda and you then decide whether what you are after is worth the price they are asking you to pay based on a variety of factors including the draft in question, what you want to do with the pic you’re receiving and what you know or think other clubs are scheming on doing.
It feels like you’re insinuating that the only possible reason that the Tiges gave up pic 32 in their upgrade to pic 20 is because they ‘didn’t know how to make best us of all If their their pics’ or ‘were too weak in their trading’.
When you don’t have the data to make that call.

The only plausible reason why this was done is that we believe we will get the two first rounders we are asking for both Shai and Dan, one of which will be used with Baker to buy pick 3, and are planning then to delist 12 players,- and then to draft 10 players, with TWO taken at or near the end of the draft.
Firstly it’s not clear Brisbane had multiple buyers. Yes they had multiple potential buyers but without knowing the strategy of each of those clubs (which we don’t). We don’t know if it’s a “fact”. Secondly as the club with the most late order picks it was clear we were a potential buyer, blind Freddy could see that let alone a professional list manager so there was no way known Brisbane would not have known we were potentially interested.
How can you move on a trade with picks you don’t have?
Sorry, that's just rubbish. Anyone can open a negotiation. The true skill is to find a win/win bearing in mind that you dealt with these same guys last year and will next. This isn't an open negotiation. Its a closed shop - between player managers, list managers and the players themselves. A bit of integrity and trust works wonders whatever books (written by people like Trump) might say. And outcomes aren't just measured in terms of this player for that pick. It's a whole lot bigger than that and I for one trust that Blair knows what he is doing
One point is, that some posters suggested other clubs were after that pick 20.
Which other clubs had the picks necessary to amalgamate 1700 points Brisbane needed for this year? So it’s a moot point saying other clubs were after it. They didn’t have the currency required.
I don’t believe there were any without using 1st or 2nd round picks. Or next years picks. Which doesn’t make any sense.
Anyway it’s done now. Let’s wait until draft night. Maybe Blair can sprinkle some magic dust on our latter picks and flog them off for something decent.
So let’s not get personal. Otherwise those looking for morons can head over to the Ryan thread or List Management threads and no doubt you’ll find plenty of
As a result, Dan Richardson will now become General Manager – Football Talent, working more closely with the head of list management and recruiting, Blair Hartley, on the Club’s list management strategy. The role will oversee all player contracting, management of the Club’s TPP program, player welfare, list management and recruiting, and the development of the Club’s Next Generation Academy.
“Dan will report into Neil, but both will be a part of the Club’s executive team, giving football a more prominent voice in the day-to-day running of the business.”
Not sure how you came to the conclusion that because of Balme we landed Prestia etc.All within 2 weeks.What an incredible man.What were we employing Blair for?
I would.
Baker is an ok player but from a Rookie too pick 18 its a steal.
No it’s fact. There’s a value index to Get the value of each pick. A bid has a value. To outbid you need a higher value pick/s
So it’s not theory.
No you can’t. But when you have a plethora of them and another needs them desperately, I’ll have a good guess what happens.
That’s obvious. But as I said when you have the largest amount of points that you are prepared to trade and another club is desperate for a large number of extra picks they NEED. Guess who the seller and the buyer are going to be.
It’s not like there are countless points/picks to choose from. They are finite. And I one club has them, others don’t.
I never said or insinuated that at all. I’ve been over this a dozen times already and given my reasons for critiquing the pick/points used for an alternative. Maybe it’s gone over your head or you want a personal explanation
We all have the data. Maybe you don’t have an understanding of it.
It’s there. The points value, the picks used, the points accumulation. The latter draft picks/points we still have left.
I reserve my right to have an opinion. You don’t. Or you agree with the deal made. Fine.
Now if anyone wants to air their grievances why I have my opinion on this. Read back over the thread or I’ll just post the thread numbers in reply.
So FFS move on.

Nope media would have sooked and said its not fair and we would have got a band 4
We had total control of this trade period was my point before we entered the draft. It’s crazy how people just make stuff up. Brisbane needed us to trade with badly and Blair bent over.One point is, that some posters suggested other clubs were after that pick 20.
