The picture is starting to focus a tad.

Currently

Carlton: 35, 43, 61

TDK's exit suggests a pick inside #10

Jacks exit suggests late first or mid 2nd. So Say #25.

So maybe 9, 25, 35, 43, 61.

You might get some steak knives for a few others at best, but I doubt it.

Just to make Drew and Nat happy I preface this by saying that this will not happen, but, it was an Interesting conversation on SEN about the worth of Curnow to the Swans. i.e How much do they want him? Their forward line, aside from Heeney, is rubbish.

With Carlton in the Box seat, the hypothetical suggestion was - What is more important to the needs of both clubs. Would Chad Warner be more important than Curnow at the Swans and vice versa.

At just 24, IMHO I think Warner could fix alot of Carlton problems. Charlie at his best is elite, but Warner is explosive and has 6+ years left. Charlie at 29 in Feb and with a list of injuries might have 3 or 4 left.

They suggested anything other than Warner would be a Hard NO!

Just some BS conversation about what would you except for Charlie. Drew it is just fun, so don't get bent out of shape.

I thought the Swans had already stated that Warner was untouchable.

Carlton has also said as much about Charlie. At the end of the day he has got 4 years to run on his contract. Realistically, Sydney would need to be shelling out the farm and then some for us to even remotely consider it

Cazz. Dont do this to me please.

Nah, we should ask for Heeney instead of Warner. Chad is a bit flaky

We will need to get rid of Pick #9 in case of an early bid on Dean. Gold Coast will struggle to obtain enough points for their 3 academy players so would likely pay a fair price for this draft selection. I was thinking a future first plus a player or 2nd rounder.
With the new points system I suspect picks #25, #35 and #43 will be needed to acquire Dean.

The hole was already there. Jack just kinda fell into it on his way out.

Another suggestion on the trade bell for Curnow to Sydney was that we get their 1st pick this year, a future 1st round and Logan McDonald.
Maybe also Ollie Florent but I can’t remember that. Even without Florent, I’d consider this.
I would also consider Gulden or Warner plus a future first or something like that.

I would prefer that Curnow stays. However, I suspect his priorities are not really on footy and he will retire early-ish.
Also, I think Harry can hold down the primary key forward post. Kind of like Roughead post-Buddy, Harry always presents, creates contests, tackles and chases. And I think he is more likely than Charlie to follow team plans. If we can get a solid no.2 like Logan, I think we will be good.

PS. I am very worried about this talk of taking away 1st round father-son picks next year when Walker hits the draft!
PPS. I will spew if the AFL gives West Coast a leg up after it knowingly traded away its future for another shot at a flag only a few years ago AND it has only been 7 yrs since they actually won a flag!!

I have a revelation. I no longer care about JSOS and TDK. Or Curnow if we get a kings ransom.

Im excited to get players who wanna be at the club.

Problem is i just done trust us as the moment to make the right decisions and not to roll over and be weak.

My focus is now who we get, what we do and the Father son stuff.
