A w@nker small forward that everyone hates is vital for success
We all loved Wright, but an honest footballer is not what you want, you want an arrogant fl0g who believes he can kick a goal from anywhere.
Smith and Rankine for Walsh is very tempting , a crystal ball would be handy right now. You’d hate to do a Melbourne and trade Kelly for Salem and Tyson.
With luck ferris will send round the spare lassie to apply the lotion...then I will have scarlett fever.....You can get a lotion for that, you know.
A Koenigsegg please ...You would complain because one wasn’t a Lamborghini

shutup though.......Not enough flogness in this thread.
Only liked this post because it's you.yep - fight both of us
Except when it comes to Tom Hawkins...I will party like its 1999 if Setterfield plays to potential. Just with 18 years of this club being struck by murphy's law, I have learnt to temper my optimism
can't stand you but like your post so can't like...........Only liked this post because it's you.

Interesting? I thought the tone of the conversation turned gelid myself.Interesting few pages...
As always
Not enough flogness in this thread.
Interestingly, when we have had pick 1, it's been better than 3&6 (excluding weeters draft as it's too early to make a call).Pick 1 for 3 and 6?
If we were offered that we should take it.
Lets go back the last 15 years and have a look at pick 1 vs pick 3&6
2017: Rayner vs Dow & Stephenson
2016: McGrath vs Mcluggage & SPS
2015: Weitering vs Mills (academy pick.. Oliver was pick 4) & Francis
2014: McCartin vs A.Brayshaw & Marchbank
2013: Boyd vs Billings & Scharenburg
2012: Whitfield vs Plowman & Mcrae
2011: Patten vs Tyson & Wingard
2010: D.Swallow vs Sam Day & Conca
2009: Scully vs D.Martin & Rohan
2008: Watts vs S.Hill & Yarra
2007: Kruezer vs masten & Myers
2006: Gibbs vs Hansen & Thorp
2005: Murphy vs X.ellis & Dowler
2004: Deledio vs Griffen & T.Williams
2003: Cooney vs Sylvia & Kepler Bradley
To me picks 3&6 combined win in most years.
Pick 1 wins in maybe 2003, 2005, 2006.
Also none of the above pick 1s turned out to be the best of their draft class (jury out on a the more recent years)
The deal is offered we take it and going off history we should win.
Rankine has Top 5 league player all over him if a club can bring out his potential.
Lets play a game called "what if"...
What if i told you Kelly and Coniglio will be playing in our round 1 side in 2020?
22 games more for the kids this year.
Potential midfield:
Cripps
Kelly
Coniglio
Dow
Fisher
Murphy
SPS
LOB
Setterfield
Kennedy
Etc
Now missing on Walsh and adding Lukosius and Rozee - whats your thoughts?
Pick 1 for 3 and 6?

Yes but I’m so cautious of this. Rarely the most talented kid in the draft is the best, especially the ones that play that goal kicking and exciting role... Wingard, j Martin, billings, I’m sure there are others, but this is only a quick discussion point being put forward. I’m probably more wary of rankine than most. He looks incredible in spots but consistency is the key to success and he’s just not consistent at all. I cant tell if his attitude will translate to the Afl, it’s much easier to see Smith and Walsh’s work ethic and attitude translate to long careers.Rankine has Top 5 league player all over him if a club can bring out his potential.
Went for a ride in one. Holy ******* s**t balls.A Koenigsegg please ...
The likelihood of getting Kelly and Coniglio is about 0.001%. If we manage to get one it would be amazing, but based on actual list assets it looks like this.
Cripps
Dow- a kid
Fisher- yep
Murphy- gone in a year or so
SPS- yep
LOB- also a kid
Setterfield- played 2 games, only potential to go off of
Kennedy- if he can get on the park, great addition
That's an incredibly thin midfield.
If we weren't crying out for a gun mid I'd be more than happy to do the trade.

How is Smith a safer option to Walsh who has clearly been more consistent and won almost everything?You can add Petracca and DeGoey into that group.
I’d be happy to grab one of these types in addition to a safer selection in Smith, who I rate higher than Walsh anyway.

I was moreso saying they're kids to show that we don't have a front line midfield, I don't want to have to rely on them in their second and third years to lead the team. I guess if we actually picked up some experienced mids in the trade period I would be more open to trading pick 1.True. It is thin especially if Setterfield doesn't come on, but you've downplayed Dow and O'Brien because they are kids to advocate for getting someone a year younger.
