Any bidding of players means we need to match the points value of that pick minus the 20% for the father-son (or academy).

The 20% applies to the first round picks only. From pick #19 there is a flat discount of 197 applies to every pick. The 197 is the equivalent of the 20% discount on pick #18

If there’s a bid at 16 for Naish and we match with 17, we should get change (left over points) so what happens to that?
The leftover points become a new pick value, should be roughly 250 points left over after the 20% discount for F/S so it slots in around the low fifties.

Jeepers that does my head in. I wouldn't have a clue what it means. Who would have thought you need a PhD to follow the draft options :hihi

The astounding thing is that it's going to happen LIVE during the draft.
Picks moving all over the place.
Presumably the AFL will have the software loaded onto club tablets.

Just wait till next year when they introduce live trading. Will be like the floor of the NY stock exchange

Which we throw in the bin because we don’t have enough room on the list.
