He needs to be our number 1 target next trade period and absolutely no stone left unturned to get him into B&W!!!!! The club he supported before being drafted.
Yep. He didn't sound to concerned.I am certainly comforted by the scouts reference to our likely raiding of free agents at the end of 2017
Bontempelli... you must want to hang yourselfyou drafted Scharenberg before Cripps... I'm happy with Billings he will be an a grader.

Would prefer Lynch but Wright is more realistic.Prime target, Peter Wright, GCS, out of contract, forward/ruck.

Im afraid trade period next year will be similar to this year.. Inability to use a first rounder really limits what you can bring in as we saw this year
Don't we then haveto trade back into the first round? Considering our pick will most likely be very high i doubt we will want to trade it anywayWe can trade our 1st Rounder next year

After Geelong used its future first for next year in this trade period there are ways around the rules..Im afraid trade period next year will be similar to this year.. Inability to use a first rounder really limits what you can bring in as we saw this year
Has there been any clarification from the AFL as to why they were allowed to trade it? I'm confused, there was a clear rule, they asked the AFL if they could break it and the AFL said yes? So is the rule still there next year?

Where has the Lynch talk come from?I believe the pick they gave to Adelaide for Dangerfield last year counts as a 'used' 1st round pick as Danger arrived in same year as the pick given away.
Therefore, last year's first rounder was a 'used' first round pick as we traded it for Treloar who arrived in same year. This year was obviously unused.
The Dangerfield rule may enable us to do this:
2015 - traded for Treloar (used)
2016 - traded for Treloar (unused)
2017 - traded for T. Lynch (used)
2018 - traded for T. Lynch^ (unused)
The above sees us use two first round picks in 4 years according to the Dangerfield rule.
I'm not 100%, so don't quote me on it, but that's how I've interpreted it.

No, you're wrong. A traded pick is a traded pick. It's only classified as used if you actually use it in the draft. Geelong had to get special permission to trade their 2017 first rounder, as it was against the rules that were created last year. As far as I can see they'll have to either trade in a first next year or trade in a 2018 first and use two picks in that draft.I believe the pick they gave to Adelaide for Dangerfield last year counts as a 'used' 1st round pick as Danger arrived in same year as the pick given away.

The thing is, Lynch would be ridiculously expansive. He'd cost two firsts minimum. Wright won't come cheap either. His value will depend on his form in 2017.lynch at this stage, l think will not leave gc, but peter wright would be more of a chance to get if there is no improvement in there team

the problem with the qld part is very few want to go home especially if they are playing good footy and why would they.The thing is, Lynch would be ridiculously expansive. He'd cost two firsts minimum. Wright won't come cheap either. His value will depend on his form in 2017.
Another thing is, we have a few QLD'ers on our list. If Smith and Josh Thomas can really break out next year then things will look up for us as far as getting one of Lynch or Wright over the line. If Marsh has a break out year but inevitably seeks a trade he'll have obvious currency too.
