What’s the point of having those later picks if you don’t have enough spots on your list Einstein?

its relentless.
Maybe this tactic on loading up on picks with only 4 maybe 5 available spots open on your list.
Leaves you in the open because the other clubs already know you can't use them.
So the deals will always be below par. unless your going full attack to get a player off another club. But to spend 10 days trying to swap picks is a disaster when your trying to improve your list.
I think if they had there time again.
We would've taken McCrea last year and delisted more this year.
You can't have 5 spots available and have 9 picks. The clubs aren't stupid
so they'll need to pick 5 players at the end when everyone has finished? Having a gun F/S like this can ruin your future as you completely miss out on all the other decent kids.
The picks that get swallowed up, don't disappear, they just are removed from their current position and added to the back of the draft. So the Pies for example, lets say they use 6 picks, they get Daicos with 1, and then the other 5 go back to the back of the draft, circa pick 70-80. They'll come in to around 60 by the time they pick, but if they go in with 6 list spots then they will still have 6 picks in the draft, just not where their initial picks were.
The other 16 clubs aren't stupid. They can see we don't have enough spots available therefore they can bend us over.
Thanks Einstein
lol at collingwood. Looks like Daicos is gonna really delay their rebuild.
not a good situation for a club in rebuild
I can see why they're pushing for our 3 picks for 27.
and whatshisname Barrett saying something today about if we don't land a big fish this week 2022 is over for us...
he went on to say he'd been wrong about "this mob" before... "this mob" is an interesting term for that tosser to use...
Yep that explains it! Gee Melb has done it, trendsetters the Dees have become.
Up to six of Carlton’s “biggest stars” took pay cuts to fit Adam Cerra into the club’s salary cap, reports Seven.
Cerra has joined the club on a four-year deal worth around $2.6 to $2.8 million a season, while George Hewett joined as a free agent signing a contract worth closer to $1.8 million across four years.
The moves surprised many, given the Blues’ recent trade activity, leading to questions about how they had enough cap room.
But the report claims as many as six players accepted less money to open up space for Cerra.
“I don’t think it’s much more than he would’ve got at Fremantle; this is more about him moving home as opposed to accepting a bigger deal at the Blues,” Seven’s Mitch Cleary said.
“This is the first buy-in to this selflessness the club’s talked about; Melbourne’s done it in the roots of their premiership.”
