Fevola is 27. Too old to be put in the future category.

Changed.

We have very little young forwards floating around. I wish we just gave pick 1 for Judd and kept JK.

Oh well.

Yeah right. And when I suggested something like this I got carded on your precious board.

But yeah, I agree.

He's still got 5 years in him at least.

Watson should still be in the centre

Reid is definitely the hope for CHB. Otherwise our only other hope is Anthony to full back and Brown to CHB. I'd say our first pick next year will be a key position back....espcially with a shallow draft you'd think the kpp's will go early.

Hopefully our future midfield next year will have the names Sidebottom and Beams as well.

I was a little shitty we went for Rounds over Lisle this year. It's my hope that Reid will become our CHB

Lets lose Kreuzer for Kennedy and downtrade a gun ruck/forward for an OK CHF.

I love all these promising spines.

A flag is just around the corner if you have so many tall forwards and tall backs.

Agree with that.

I doubt any club will trade away a quality key forward for one first round pick.

I wouldn't rule out Kreuzer and Hampson developing into a tall ruck/forward setup like Hale and Petrie.

Or Austin and Waite playing forward and back depending on the match ups and the 22 we picked.

Sydney Swans

Current
FB:C.Bolton
CHB:L.Roberts-Thomson
C:B.Kirk
CHF:B.Hall
F:M.O'Loughlin

Future
In the shorter term A.Goodes would slot into CHF/FF working in tandem with L.Johnston.

B.Murphy is going to be a gun and could easily slot into either CHF or CHB. I would like to see him in the long term as a forward hence why i placed him there.

FB:H.Grundy
CHB:L.Roberts-Thomson
C:J.McVeigh
CHF:B.Murphy
F:L.Johnston
