Here's a trading scenario to think about when Brisbane beat Carlton next week and go above Gold Coast on the ladder. That will mean GC hold pick 2. They will hold picks 2 & 3 after Tom Lynch exercises his FA status to go to Hawthorn/Collingwood/Richmond.
What will Gold Coast do with picks 2 & 3? Draft a couple more talented kids who will play the go home card in two years?
Or do they trade pick 3 to us for Jake Lloyd which gets them a senior player they are chasing and our first say pick 13/14 ish which will this year still draft a potentially great player?
We could then draft a gun with pick 3 and use later picks to pay for Blakey when he is bid on. Just saying .....
