It is totally sane. Points are just a guide, they can be a relevant guide, and a ridiculous guide. The odds of drafting a player who makes it are far lower, top 5 compared to 12-20, and the quality of player you get will tend to be lower. You can make arguments for both sides, fair enough, but madness it ain't.
There are going to be plenty of points dumped in the skip this year, might as well use them for an upgrade.

So if this was Richmond giving up 3 1st rounders for a 1st and 2nd you’d be ok?
Given the context, yes, no worries.
And you're making it sound worse than it is, late first/ early second, same same. And as I've said a billion times, first rounders ain't first rounders. pick 4 is not the same as pick 16. The guts of the deal, AFAIC, is 2 late firsts for an early first, or alternatively, 2 picks in the teens for a top 4 pick.

If i was GC, id be taking Melbournes deal.
I dont think any in their frame at 5 Ginbey, clark or humphrey are blue chip.
Theyre only gonna take 1 pick, and its a good year to land a player at 45
And they pick the eyes out of the first round next year when they actually have list spots and room to move
Wonder who Dees want? mackenzie?

Out of interest, who are GCS and GWS likely to take tonight? I like follow the early careers of future tigers.
Suns have Ginbey, Clark and Humphrey in the mix.
Word is Humphrey.
I also expect North to take Sheezel before placing the bid on Ashcroft
Wonder how much input we have into their picks? I imagine we’d be pointing out all the kids with “Richmond Man” qualities to their recruiting staff.
I hope Essendon cop a fiora and miss out on the next Bompmytelly or Cotchin dkheads
They wouldnt know a richmond man if one was right under their nose
When we were shiit I would care about the draft not anymore.
It will be interesting to see if the kokslapper Congrats Geelong

Balmey is definately going tonight as he's heard they have Monte Carlo's and Party Pies on the table in the club boxes.
Only shiit sides care about draft.
False dawns
We were the kings of the False Dawn
Hot off tomorrow's Hun....

DODORO DELIVERS 4 DONS
Lastnight, the masterful Adrian Dodoro, widely seen as the premier AFL list manager amongst his peers, delivered a quartet of first round talent for incoming coach Brad Scott.
"Clearly the winner on night one", was how it was expressed to me!
Opposition recruiters continue to marvel at Dodoro's ability to work his magic during his 20+ years at the Bombers.
Insiders at the club have told me prominent board members are pushing for Adrian to be given an extended contract in the range of 5 to 7 years, thus thwarting serious overtures from down at Moorabbin.
There's also a feeling among club heavyweights, that he'll be target Number 1 whenever Tasmania is given the green light.
With his stellar record of building outstanding lists, I believe the club needs to do whatever it takes to secure Dodoro's long-term future at the Hanger!

Me either. It’s a total yawnfest and they’ve strung it out over 2 nights.
