    It’s logical . There’s a lot of teams to potentially come knocking to bring you home. Best to avoid !

        My only curiousity in tonight is we’ve effectively give up some points for next year.

          I wonder if we will have another pick, if that is possible.

            According to the draft tracker, we still have picks 80 and 87. Is there any chance that we'll use those, or are we done for the night?

              Weren’t Rowbottom and McCartin KB left-field selections?

                  Yes, most of the people that are doing phantom drafts are Victorian based, aren't they? Maybe a bit of inherent bias has crept into the rankings? Possibly means that there's a slight discount going outside of Victoria?

                    Probably true, but who knows how we will go next year compared to Brisbane. There have been a lot of smokies being taken in the late thirties and maybe we really wanted to be sure we got Warner.

                    I think we're finished until the rookie draft. I surmise that Bell has been elevated to the senior list and our primary list size is back down to 38 again. Does that sound right?

                    As for next year, I guess the focus is on recruiting Daniher, Campbell and Gulden. We're probably not too worried about what follows after that.

                      Surprised no talls picked. I thought Jeka looked interesting.

                      Also Callum Jamieson has but up some good numbers playing behind Jackson (though he's pretty lean).

                        Bizarre that the Suns have given up next year's pick 11, to get this year's pick 27. Especially as yesterday, they gave up picks 17 and 22, to get this year's pick 11?

                          Didn’t we have two third round picks next year one of which we swapped for a fourth round to grab BWG. So we still have an extra pick but a few less points.

                            I've been figuring we will redraft Maibaum with our 2nd rookie selection and perhaps we will go with Hamish Ellem with our academy selection. We have pick 4 in the rookie draft, so could get a decent player with that one.

                            The 2020 draft has been massively devalued. When all this is over, it will be interesting to see what picks clubs are going with in next year's draft.

                              I think we are done for the night. Are we considering rookie elevations?

                              As for the future picks, we have a future third-round selection (Brisbane) and a future fourth-round pick (Adelaide) coming in for a future third-round selection (to Brisbane) and a future fourth-round selection (to St Kilda). This means we have picks in each round and can trade out our first-round pick. At the start of the night, trading the first-rounder wasn't possible because we were missing a fourth-round pick. Smart trading to give us more trading options next year. If we end up with about pick 10 next year, that would make it easy to trade down for some later picks to bid on Campbell and Gulden.
