North's 2025 first rounder is ours

[Tiger Khosh]

What about the bombers? They’ve got their own as well as demons 1st rounder next year. They do have a pick only 4 or 5 spots down from us so maybe they don’t really need it but their forward line sucks so maybe they want to garauntee they get Shanahan.

Bombers absolutely cooked up this draft. Gambled that a bid for kako would come in before their pick 9 so traded it away and then it never came. Could have got a player with pick 9 and kako

Taken enough talls this draft. Reckon we'll try and get another F1 &  try get back into next year's 2nd round as well and either take Davidson -who I don't rate- with a later pick and leave the last spot free for pick 1 in the rookie draft or the SSP. Personally hope we take Gross. I like Gerryn but as I I've said reckon we've already taken one tall too many for my liking.

Let’s grab another mid this year,
2 x top 10 picks next year is likely so we’re going to end up with 4 top 10 picks across 2 drafts

Reaction on the Norf forum.

Stupidest thing xxxxxxx ever. Seriously wtf.

Are we off our ****?

I can't believe we just did that oh my god there's no way thats anything but a disaster.

Who wants to form a lynch mob for Brady right now? This is the dumbest draft move in history!

Brady this is a completely horrible deal. We have traded pick 1-5 for pick 27 + probably 20ish.

This is horrible.

Ok just when I think Brady can't do anything stupider, he manages this trade. A potential top 5 pick for 27 and a pick in the 20s.... if F1 was going to go and you get 27/28 I kinda get that but we backed ourselves into a corner after trade week and we just continue to cave on trades, especially with Richmond. Like, what kind of incriminating photos do they have to continue to make us /Brady roll over?

And it wasn’t even the best Whitlock.. my God

Are we giving them CCJ back at least

Is Jason McCartney father son next year?

He's tipped to be top 5 pick I think. It might be why Roos want to trade out of first round.

[Hard Roar Tiger]

Am away and missed the draft but awoke to a mate’s thunderbird laughing gif which surprised me as I thought perhaps we’d done something stupid but ahhhh nope. Lolnorf.

LMAO

If North finish bottom 3 next year they will not be giving us that pick, they would most likely shop it around to get multiple picks and give us the latest first round pick they get.

It's tied to their ladder position but it's our pick now and they can't do shyte with it, we can though.

Nice one. thanks Dio

Now it makes sense

[TigerLand]

Just followed up Aiden McCartney is in All Aus U-16 team so 2026 draft and rated best tall in draft. So not impacting next year lol

[ajGreen]

History would suggest North won't be bottom 4. Think they've now equalled the most bottom 4 finishes in a row. I think this pick will be picked 6-8. Which is still a huge win.

Looking at the fixture, I can't see where norf pick up many games this season.

Going to be so fun watching them this year.

If Richmond land Dyson Sharp  via the norf pick it'll be best thing since sliced bread

For their part, Richmond were happy with the trade deal which landed them an additional first-round pick for 2025, as they seek to build on this year's bumper draft haul.

"It's a good result, but trading of future picks is always dangerous," Tigers football talent manager Blair Hartley told Fox Footy.

"We've given them our future second, as well.

"You just end up death-riding every team in the competition if you give up too many picks for next year, which we kind of had this year.

"But we're excited the position we're in this year ... but having the two first-round picks for next year obviously puts us in a good position going forward."
