The comparison with Tambling is on the money. Good luck though to him, I liked the kid.
Lyons, Hanley & Barlow allow the drafted kids a chance to develop. And we also need to cash in now to keep the spine from leaving, as big offers will come the way of Wright etc.
It's starting to creep in where players sign the biggest & longest contract possible anywhere, then request a trade elsewhere mid contract. The team that was good enough to offer a contract then is stuck with a player either not 100% committed, or losing that player and paying much of the...
It's an even but rich draft. There's little doubt that clubs will be in the ears of some of their stars testing the water on a move. Players that we haven't heard about. It won't be Fyfe, saw him talk pre game and he's going nowhere.
I don't think McGrath is a standout. Freo will likely use their pick on Powell-Pepper leaving either Brodie or McCluggage at pick 4 if GWS go with McGrath.
Hypothetical question. If we used picks 4, 6 (Prestia) and 8 on any of Hartlett, Gibbs, Hanley, Rockliff etc, how would that position us to get Bowes and Scheer point wise? Saying we got Hawthorn's pick 14 as our top pick and still had a few 2nd round picks.
Crows have massive salary cap issues. Jenkins & Crouch new contracts were much higher than they anticipated leaving no room for Lyons. They would like to keep him but can't match any decent offers over 200K.
