Have on our books now:

Go to draft with
1 - McDonald - kpf
14 - O’Driscoll - hbf/mid
Pick up academy kids Brand & Eyre with accumulation of late points

The parts of the megatrade are all too complex but it’s been worked on & planned up for a reason.
Haha good effort. I’d be very comfortable if that’s how it played out!!
Obviously there’s a fair few gaps about how that megatrade happens and what GWS are getting for Caldwell (our future 2nd are you saying or something from another club)?
Getting all those guys and somehow taking two first rounders this year and keeping our first rounder next year would convert me to an Ants style Dodoro defender
@Houli_Dooley
Somehow in there I think it will relate to GWS doing better overall losing both Caldwell & Hately than what they would just getting a future 2nd off us or 40 off Crows. Maybe they get Crows 9 and also shell some later/future picks into the mix.
As per when they got 11 for Smith and did so. They care more about being back in top of draft over actually having a trade have appropriate value.
