If we frontload the contract as north did with jacobs newton will get to 47 without much trouble.
Like your thinking there. Newton and Blease at least theoretically offer some mature age cover for losing Christensen and Varcoe if it happens.
Pick 10 should yield a quality player and factoring in draft pre-selections picks 55 and 60 are more like 49 and 54 working that out roughly as live picks.
All in all Clarke anywhere near his best is an exciting prospect next to Hawkins and Stanley offers depth with our injury riddled talls currently.
Given the challenges that faced Geelong heading into this trade/draft period there are emerging signs here we are developing a workable strategy.
