Excuse intrusion:

I think Twomey may be grasping at straws.

Agreed, seems like you've settled on Cumming and he doesn't know which way you're going with your second pick.

Going by your list manager's interview you would think Taylor but lets see what he does in his late mail phantom. Going by how many backs you have though it's Robey.

Ignoring the Kako bid (he probably didn't know Essendon and Saints were doing a trade so Kako bid off the table) you guys stuffed him up last year. He had you taking Bo Allan and Jobe while you took Hotton and Faull.
 
Excuse intrusion:
Twomey has know idea who Richmond is choosing at pick 4. He placed Robey at 4 and Taylor at 5, so if it ends the other way around it doesn’t look like he’s missed by much. I think it’s all still up in the air as Richmond has not divulged in anyway whatsoever there likely picks.

I think Twomey may be grasping at straws.
Richmond don’t need to squeal, he’s not getting all his info from recruiters. Speak to players, player managers, coaches, family etc.

I know Robey is flavor of the month around here but Taylor sliding to us is a much better outcome for our culture. He is exactly the type our side is crying out for and he can grow with the likes of Roberts and Johnson down back into a reliable defensive unit. Not to put the pressure on but shades of Van Der Haar in the 85 granny to him. Unless Richmond pick him of course, in which case he is dollar store Brayden Maynard.

Back 7 of McKay, Ridley, Reid, Redman, McGrath, Roberts and Taylor should be pretty handy if we can get them all on the park.
 
Tigers are the ones that will set the tone with Eagles most likely going with Duursma/CDT.

At the end of the day any combo of Cumming,Smart, Robey, Taylor is a win IMO.

Just guessing Tigers will take Cumming & Grlj maybe get cold feet on Robey.

Didn’t we just delist him?
Delisting a guy only to then use pick 6 to re-draft him seems like a real bold strategy.
 
Greeves at that pick would be a steal. But will you have the draft capital if you’re trading for pick 9?
If we missed on Robey, I would consider it.
If we got a small forward in Dovaston or Pickett, would let El-Achkar go and get back in for Greeves.

interesting on the Hawks board;

Also a whisper that WC could call out Uwland at pick 1, in the hope of a) Grabbing Zeke and Duursma or b) leaving GC without the points to match a bid on Patterson at 2.
Love it make Suns pay.

they should then go Annable at 3 though.
Before getting Duursma at 4
then bid on Dean at 5.

Uwland (suns)
Patterson (suns)
Annable (bris)
Duursma (eagles)
Dean (blues)
CDT (eagles)
Cumming(Rich)
X Taylor (rich)
Robey (efc)
Sharp (efc)
Nairn (Dees)
Dovaston/Pickett/Farrow/Grilj (Dees)
Dovaston/Pickett (efc)


If Eagles want to pickup Addison (Suns) later it will mean they will be unable to match.
4 of top 5 being bids would be crazy.

Twomey says he is confident of the top 6 (Duursma, Uwland, Dean, CDT, Patterson, Annable) and it’s pretty much ‘chose your own adventure’ after that.

Taylor, Robey, Cumming and potentially Farrow in the mix for Richmond’s picks.

I guess the main takeaway for us is Dyson Sharp is pretty much guaranteed to be a Bomber.

Yes as long as we don’t reach, I really don’t think we can go wrong.

Sharp + the leftover of cumming/taylor/robey.
Then follow up with Dovostan a couple picks later.

Is a fantastic return.

Maybe because one is 20 years old and the other one is 18. Dovaston Kicking 50 goals is something you shouldn’t be neglecting, I know which one I’d prefer.

Dovaston has a better u18 resume than Kako.

Drafting a 20 year old that high would be the most utterly irresponsible thing us or any other club could do.

Haven't seen much of Dovostan, is he quick?

I suspect we go him unless Dees pick him at 8. Think Dees will go Pickect though.
 
Watching gettable just then and I would be stoked with dovaston and Taylor, they are the arrogance and confidence we have lacked for so long. Clearly not private school boys and wouldn’t be suprised if they got in some trouble along they way in there afl journeys but I’m all for it! Sharp can be the level head while these two can be the loose units
