Norths 1st Round Pick - 2025 Hate Watch

[Tiger Khosh]

Bloody lions!

Then finishing 1 spot above us means nothing as long as we’re not in the spoon position.

In saying that beating them next week will go a long way to ensuring they finish bottom 3/4.

Call me a pessimist but I rekn they’ll beat us.

West Coast last

Us and nought bottom three

Order depends on next week you would think ??

Sounds about right to me.

If Allen stays and they don't get a PP we'll have 2+3, worst case probably 4+5.

I'll ask the question again - if Reid wants out would you trade our two picks for him?

We could try to get one of their picks back for Kellaway like p34 or p56 for example depending on how Kellaway's trajectory goes.

[Tiger Khosh]

Reid looked great today but I’d be reluctant to give up 2 x top 5 (potentially 2 x top 3) picks for anyone.

I’d consider giving up 1 of them (the latter of the 2) and our 2026 first rounder given it will slide with all of Tassies concessions but I rekn WCE knock that back as he still has 1 more year to run on his contract anyway.

Wait do Tassie strt drafting 2026 or 2027?

Instantly

With an 8-10yr front loaded deal he can’t refuse

Thanks. I would too especially if we get a pick back that we can use to secure Kellaway.

Reid, Lalor, Smillie, Hotton, McAuliffe, Taranto, Hopper for mids and we're good for a long time.

Forward line of Faull, Armstrong, Lefau ruck relief.
Got smalls in Campbell, Mansell, Green, Alger, MRJ some work to do there maybe we get Raso.

Maybe Sims ruck if he can play primary.

Backline Balta, Brown, Gibcus maybe, Miller/Blight/Gray

Plenty to work with there.

[Tiger Khosh]

That’s a hell of a price to pay. Both excites me and terrifies me lol

Norf have fallen away in the second half and especially the last quarter against the Pies. Seems last week's high contest game took energy out of both of us.

Anyway, another loss for the Roos which currently keeps us with both picks 2 & 3.

[Tiger Khosh]

So who do we want to win today? Obviously north losing puts them only half a game off bottom but it also puts it right back in the spoon race too.

We want the eagles to win a couple more games so that Norf gives us P1 and we can take our own P2-3.

If Norf lose, then we stay in the running for two top 3 picks. First pick in the draft is looking more like being Dyson Sharp. However, the Eagles today seem to have gone to the same goalkicking school as us.

[Tiger Khosh]

I agree but I really don’t want to win the spoon.

[one-eyed]

Norf kicked the last 4 goals of the game to win by 10 pts. Eagles were up by 18 pts 10 mins into the last but then didn't score anything.

[Diocletian]

As long as we finish within one spot of Norf it doesn't really matter in which order it is.

Yay for mediocrity and low standards!

Not even remotely the same thing. Dumb analogy.
