    Went out Tom Morris style.

    List Mgmt. 2023 Draft/Trade/FA thread

    WCE have split their first rounder in last 2 NDs and I expect them to look at it again next year due to the evenness of the top 5, at this stage. This is not the year to be splitting pick 1, in my opinion.

    McKercher would far and away be most WCE poster's preference but if there's a list strategy in place to prioritise talls this draft then so be it. One of our posters put a post in one of the draft threads yesterday which summed up where defenders 'should' be picked due to their success rate...

    Barrett's 'mail' is his opinion that WCE would much prefer to pick the top WA prospect over the top Vic one, a stance he's repeated numerous times without even alluding to any flight risk vibes. Also, why would Reid and his manager put out strong statements a number of times that he's no issue...

    You don't have to take it, it's a 3 year contract and the 'issues' about him being reluctant to move aren't about him personally, but his parents not being keen. There's been a few posters from various team boards that live in the area come onto the board and state that if he goes to WCE, the...

    There could be something said for fleecing North of their picks for Oliver. They get their marquee player they've been desperate for all these years and Melbourne get a killer draft hand. Not sure what they'd offer up though.

    I'm sure they'll meet with him, they may already have. They've obviously gone and watched him a number of times. At that point however North had met with him twice and WCE hadn't met with him at all. Could simply be down to how/when they structure meetings with players but I don't believe...

    Well, this was alluded to in said rumour. Not sure WCE would want to take on a player with said rumoured risk, considering what happened 15 years ago.

    North will offer better than that, so Melbourne's offer isn't worth considering if that's the extent of it.

    In the Reid thread on our board, form this morning. Like I said, rumour only, not journo reported, so likely BS.

    This was as a month and a half ago, rumour comes from his own father, who is expecting him to go later in the top 10. Having said that, plenty of times WCE have picked players without meeting them more than once, or showing much interest. A number of players have been convinced they were going...

    Well, the rumour this morning is Melbourne are preparing Oliver and a first for pick #1. I absolutely wouldn't do that and I expect it to be just that, because it doesn't suit either party, but would be interesting if there's some truth to it(I expect there isn't).

    He's had the same position for months and when questioned on it says "WCE must want the local kid Curtin", despite WCE not actually meeting him at all during the season, whereas O'Brien's spoken with Reid/Reid's manager a number of times over the course of the season.

    Barrett doesn't know anything about the draft. He also gets no info from WCE. Blacklisted years ago. His stance for months has been that WCE want Curtin because he's the 'best WA talent', nothing more than that. This is despite the fact that we've picked more Victorians with our first rounders...

    Don't come onto oppo team boards and post much but good luck next weekend, was great to see your team smash the shit out Geelong. Interesting rivalry WCE and Demons have had over the years (the Oliver vs Schofield tribunal was very amusing) so haven't had a great deal of love for the Demons...

    Jack Watts, what are your expectations for 2010

    Realistically you'd be looking for him to play his first 6 or so games in the VFL and put in some solid performances. He's still very young so it's not like you'd expect him to set the world on fire in his second season, nor does he need to. Let him get his confidence up in the VFL and get him a...

    Majak Daw

    Ah, the point Lewigie was making is that at Daw's height, there is no way he will end up being a ruckman at AFL level, whereas Naitanui was 199cm when drafted and is now 201cm. Majak Daw plays ruck but if drafted, will not end up there and his average stats are actually quite poor compared to...

    Valenti and Bate were very good. Wasn't Bate originally drafted as a forward?
