The Pies have done it again, absolutely nailed the trade period.... nailed it....now they will do the same in the draft.....

We will never see them out of the 8, their succession planning and sustainability program is second to none...just like Sydney!!!!

Look how active they have been. Yet we are happy with Hampson and think we have a list to challenge for a flag. Please.

The pies are a class act

we take a ruckman, who led the league in average hit outs to advantage and was equal 6th for contested marks, to give much needed support for maric, and now the same people who squealed over that now want to get Karnezis, who has done what?

stuff me, hampson had more contested marks in his last two games that Karnezis has for his career

So are my ways higher than your ways,
And my thoughts than your thoughts."

Could very well miss it next year with the loss of Shaw and Daisy. As good as Grundy is too can he do it for more than 6 games and carry an entire ruck dept for a year. Last year everyone said the same thing with Lynch and he was poo, now they'll be saying it about White until they realise he is poo as well. They'll have the same issues as they had this year minus having any rebound out of defence. Unless Maxwell lifts his game.  :whistle

pick 50 i said, nothing less. Would be happy for White and Hampson also at this range as that's what all 3 are worth

I value pick 32 over 50 and clearly you do also cause if i recall you didnt want to take Ball with a second round but third was okay.

Karnezis will be a real good player at Collingwood. He was definately worth pick 50.

so your theory is its ok to take crap as long as you get it for a bargain?

Not sure if i ever said i was happy to take ball with a third round pick, but as I have explained once before when you bought up luke ball ( not that long ago either  :huh), due to doing some research and now having information that i didnt have before, i have changed my view on the value of draft picks.

So, i would have thought, given recent discussions where i have said this directly to you and also argued that i dont value picks over 20 that much, it was clear that i dont value pick 32 that much over pick 50.

Obviously though, some things are not that clear to clouded minds.

Karnezis will be a good player at VFL Collingwood. He was definately worth rolling the dice with a late pick they weren't going to use in this crap draft.

Agree

We could have nailed it as well if Deledio left under free agency and we traded Rance.

Pick 12, 13 and straight swap for Adams, but we're missing a good backman and a good onballer.

OK, theres a little bit too much sensibility coming about in this thread.

Daniel can you hurry up and restore the natural order please.
“For My thoughts are not your thoughts,
Nor are your ways my ways,” says the Lord.
 
“For as the heavens are higher than the earth,
So are my ways higher than your ways,
And my thoughts than your thoughts."

Should chase Adams harder and offer pick 12 if necessary. Offer him more money.

Pick 12 is a good pick, but if we're going for another mid (most likely) why not take the risk (of getting a dud) out of the equation and grab a player like Adams with two years under his belt, a strong body, and a clearly very good talent. Worth pick 12 any day and the certainty of knowing he's a gun should make it a priority.

No. We've set our limit if he won't accept let it be. How's Conca going to feel watching Adams run around on an extra 100k or 300k over the life of their 3 year deals. Same price as Conca is fair, if he refuses then so be it. Move on, draft another player we like.
