Cool story, bro

This is from a recent post of mine (2136). Check the language I used.

I assume the #1 club
The AFL also may be
and potentially the clubs
what happens if?
they potentially don't want to
As for Saints, I assume
Let's say it's
there's absolutely no guarantee
I don't think
And I don't think we should

There's nothing about that that's assertive. But there are other posts where I am. You know why? Because in some instances, I'm sure. You act like every post I make that I'm sure about everything I say, and that I imply I have some sort of diving knowledge. That's just not true. What is true, is that you have come to an internet forum and got offended at some random person's opinion that you don't agree with.
Not offended at all - just calling you out on posts where you make out as if you know, rock solid. This is the most fluid draft order I can recall in recent times and the fact that you still think you 100% correct says a lot about your approach.

Enough on this matter. As a matter of fact, I like robust debate and differing views. The only thing I am sure about is that there will be surprises in the top 6 order. That is why St Kilda at 7 and 8 is so interesting

All you had to say was, "I read that Dees were keen on Tauru at #5". I'd never see that before, and tbh, it surprises me. Let's move on.

The issue with Essendon and trade partners is to buy and sell in the same market.

I am certain Essendon could get better options for 28 and 31 than what eaglevision and I have been proposing. The problem is there are few who can trade a better pick (26) without the Dons paying a huge premium. It could even require them giving up one of their 2 x F1.

That might be fine if they do a deal with Tigers, Sydney or GWS but they will all be late teen to 20’s picks.

I proposed it on the Drug Rats board and a couple responded that our buying price was too low but they were ok with the selling price. Their more astute posters (and they do have some) realised the benefit and thought the deal had credibility

At the Kako bid - WC F2 and WC F3 for 28 and 31
Post Kako bid - 26 for Ess F2
Asterix can you help me out or Keys or Anyone please.
So i really like the Essendon trade off for points and our pick 26 ultimately. I'm just not sure how "Nuts and Bolts" it actually works.

So Pick 12 comes along and the bid is put on Kako. It's now up to Essendon to match. I've never then seen(a club) Essendon having another choice to trade with us and then match the bid. Can it actually happen like this.

Interesting. The Eagles don't usually give anything away. I doubt they're telling 17 other clubs who their target is. Unless they want him at 12. "Hey everybody, we think he's a 2nd rounder, don't be taking him top 11, because he's not that good". Or the journo rang up the club and someone said, "sure, he looks pretty good", and they turned it into an article.
Until that dunce Clarke showed up
 
Can’t wait for Clarke to try draft Liam Baker at pick 12 on draft night

Trading back to 12 from 3.

Ever since that trade went down I've disassociated myself entirely from the draft. Any phantom draft, any Tweet regarding top picks has been a straight scroll through for me. That deal still chaps my ass and the cherry on the cake is playing Carlton twice next year. Should be amazing.
 
Swans fans are losing their shit still about the GF. Saying they lost because of Horse's coaching, should play Sheldrick mid, Warner fwd, Warner is nuttin' but an outside downhill skier, Lizard is also weak as piss, etc

This part is actually true though.

Clowns wanting us to sell the farm for him next year after doing that exact thing with Kelly and seeing how that's turned out for us are out of their mind.

Warner needs a good system around him and is in between a cherry on top player and prime mover. Disappears out of games too much, goes to water with a tag and certainly not worth what is going to be expected for him on the market. Definitely not with our genius list management team.

If Chad nominates us, the club will 100% pay whatever it costs to get him here.
Just see what happened with Baker.
Not only are we poor negotiators, but we won't have the capacity to say no.
We'll probably allow Sydney set the price for him and do our best to meet it.
Then we'll have our friends down the road trying to up the price for him even if Warner have nominated us.
