"I don't assume the Cats wish to offer their initial and second-round choices without receiving one thing back, so there is potentially sophisticated pick swap going to take place right here," he said. Clark planned the Bulldogs might send Bailey Smith and their third-round pick to Geelong for its own first and second-round picks. "These are the sorts of complications (that might happen), and this is actually why I presume it's going to take some time to thrash out."
