Whatever the price would be it will 100% have to include pick 6 or North won’t do it.
It just depends on 6 and what?

Ah they know who they are. No need to rub it in.
I will say though, because it's a fan site, we can often be very accepting of things, or make a lot of allowances for Richmond when often we shouldn't. It's ok to not just want the best for Richmond, but also get the best FROM Richmond. Big difference.
18 from Freo would have been *smile*. A full 4 spots backwards. Terrible.
Anyway, unlike some, Blair has got the standard value most of us were expecting all along for Baker, so it's onwards and upwards from here.
Let's get commensurate value for Bolton now as well.
To put the Baker trade in perspective. We'll get more than the Dogs will get for a similarly contracted Bailey Smith.
We love Bakes, but Smith is the better footballer - plus a full 3 years younger.
100% this is great work from Blair.

Thats a win all round.
I don't rate Owies, but WC get baker and 2 first round picks, so did well.
Happy to get 14
*smile* you Carltooon.
Not really. Its just standard work from Blair - as mb64 posted earlier. Yeah, he helped resuscitate the WCE deal after Clarke ** things up, but its just the exact same value that was always there. Clarke also had no choice really. Blair's best work was months ago when establishing pick 14 to begin with.
The Bailey Smith situation is a total rip-off effort by Geelong. Entirely different. Not apples with apples. Only the GMM - Geelong Media Mafia - think that's a fair deal.

Based on Carltons trade, would we be able to do 6 and 14. Then we keep 10 and 11. Go to the draft with 1, 2, 10, 11, 20, 23, 24
If all the dogs will get from Geelong for Smith is their 1st rounder it would have been done already imo.
Dogs want Geelong’s F1 as well
And so they should.
Mackie is a total awipe. Everyone in the industry outside of Geelong knows that. Go Dogs.
Whilst the above is true. Geelong have the Dogs over a barrel.
The dogs will either have to accept Geelongs first or they'll walk him to the nat draft.
Smith won't talk to any other clubs to get a gauge of his mental state or do a physical to get his knee checked out. And given his mental/physical history no-one else will take him.
And Geelong know it.
But but but I was assured he was an incompetent nuffy.....
He's had a poor few years it must be said.
Hopefully this trade period restores him to his best work.
They are, but unfortunately it’s Carlton that’s bending them over not Richmond….
