Petracca is going to go to the Suns for pick 6 + futures, then Dees will use pick 6 + F1 for pick 2 and draft Robey.

That'll be more stoopid that us picking him.

Can anyone tell me why I should get excited about Tyler Young?

Enjoy your 1st rounder.
When Oscar Allen kicks 10 on him.
At least you can say getting pick 2 was justified.
 
I can't see us taking Robey if we keep picks 3 & 4. The only way we will take him is if we split our picks and take him with a pick in the teens. Hartley is too professional to make a last minute decision on a players value. All of our picks are based off years of scouting and evaluating. Sharp (&/or Cummings) is the most likely choice with three who plays a very similar role and would work well along side Smilie.

From what I’ve heard from a bloke I’m mates with that has ties to Eastern CTL , this is accurate
Hartley is our list manager, not our recruiting boss
It's Rhy Gieschen who's making the calls on who we pick
 
Lmao the guys released a big boy article with the old list 🤣🤣🤣
Just putting it out there that I DO NOT work for The Sporting News

I enjoy putting on my tinfoil hat and shooting the sheet so here’s what I think might be running through the minds of our recruiters and co…

Scenario 1 - Raid SA

Sharp is the highest available player on our board. We take him at 3 then we trade 4 to grab a later 1st Rd pick to land one of Marsh / Cumming / Phillipou plus a future first round pick. We also find a way to grab Kellaway if a bid eventuates.

Rationale: SA were the best team in the Champs. We bank an all but guaranteed 200+ gamer in Sharp to feed the ball out to Lalor / Hotton and Smillie. Bring a few SA mates with him to help make Tigerland feel like home.

Scenario 2 - The Eastern Tigers

It’s the Robey show. We’ve seen enough and are smitten with Sully and what he projects to be. We then grab X Taylor providing some irresistible versatility to each end of the ground and/or midfield rotations.

BUT - If a desperate club comes to us with a great offer for Sharp / CDT then we trade 4 to grab a later 1st Rd pick to land one of O Taylor / Dovaston plus a future first round pick

Rationale: After our haul last year we’re in a position to take a higher risk type player in Robey who opens up all sorts of fwd/mid rotation options. X Taylor comes in to be the heir apparent to Vlastuin / Broad.

Scenario 3 - Complete the midfield

Without any great deals tabled for splitting 4, we simply grab Sharp & Robey as best available on our board.

Rationale: With that we all but complete our midfield rebuild and look to add speed via Free Agency (Butters anyone?). Still room for Armstrong next yeah given the flexibility of players like Hotton, Lalor, Smillie
Scenario 1 by a country mile

Oscar will thrive with that midfield hitting him on the tit lace out. Hindsight will be king.
Your lucky that they've committed to him.
Can't for the life of me workout why they would need him with 2 young bulls and Hipwood.
 
Now that I want Robey I can see the club not taking him lol
If Sharp falls to our first pick we will take him and split our second pick.
Late pick for Young will be used if a bid comes for Kellaway.
I just hope if we are splitting pick 4 we get a F1 as i really want two 1st rounders in next year's draft, don't like the idea of moving down in this draft when early indications say next year is already better.

Sharp, McAuliffe & Kellaway. Already building up our SA boys. (Can see Fawcett leaving if is unable to crack our senior side). Next year get Cochrane if Ports NGA request gets knocked back.

Hipwood I don’t rate at all. The GF showed why those kids need time, if they didn’t have the all time goal kicking midfield depth that they do then that looks very different.

Just an opinion but Oscar will be one of the best FA pick ups by any club to date.
