Is Marchbank really worth pick 13??
(I know a few steps to go before that but is he really worth a 1st round pick??)
I don't think he is. I definately didn't think he was worth pick 5, even with steak knives. We really need a midfielder from the draft at pick 5.
The problem I see, is that our pick 24 doesn't get it done. We're not going to get much better for Tuohy from North, if that happens. North would still need to trade for that pick as they don't have anything in the 20's.
So it looks like the simplest arrangement would be to use the Henderson pick, but to get Marchbank and maybe Stewart. Or pick 13 for Marchbank and their pick 33.
We may then look at trading our pick 24 and 33 (from Marchbank deal) for a higher pick?

Sorry mate. You've shot straight passed me. I'm not sure what you mean. I know what EFA means, and I noticed you substituted pick 13 for Henderson, but I'm still missing it...
That netted pick 17....but that was a complex trade. Apart from that I can only imagine you are criticising that deal, and suggesting this would be the same?
The simplest way to look at the deal is that we got Harry McKay (pick #8), Sumner, Phillips, Lamb, Plowman, and Kerridge. We gave up Menzel, Henderson.
I'd really call that a win.
Nah. Nothing so sinister. The Henderson pick doesn't exist but it's been bandied about for a few weeks as a possible trade by those who didn't realize or by those stirring the pot.
