Freo only has the current equivalent of picks 8 and 80 in next years draft and we have Norths second .
I reckon North would be keen to move their picks in the thirties this year up... Maybe their 37 and next year's 53 for our 30.
We move 2022 19 (North's 2nd) and 53 to Freo for pick 21...
I reckon Matthew Johnson should be in consideration at 9 (7)
193 cm
Wiry frame but strong through the shoulders (Plenty to work with)... a bit like Pendlebury.
Super composure and decision maker. Hard to stop in traffic.
Elite agility, excellent burst speed, endurance and leap.
Always seems to...
Nat Fyfe is a brilliant player, that’s why Freo go out of their way to make sure he gets the footy. He thanked Reece Conca on Brownlow night for working so hard to help him get the pill. This is the opposite of how Richmond and Martin work. Richmond are a low possession high value side. Martin...
I’m sure most of us rate Sheds as one of our most influential players. Not many players have his skill set and he’s not getting any younger.
Dow might be seen as the most likely in this draft to develop into a similar role player.
I’d take that in a flash if it works out...

Yep, fair enough, the G is a few metres longer... Was reacting to the 7 commentary which suggested that at the Gabba fast goals from the centre were much easier due to the grounds dimensions. (Should have known better.) Still, the Lions tactic of flooding the midfield to stop our forward...
Ellis was a bit of a victim of the size of the ground and the Lions structure on the night. He has never been good in tight and the same opposition structure which allowed Dusty the space up forward to dominate one on one meant that he was unable to create space through gut-running.
Yes, he had...
The media keep telling us we want more goals... but what drives their agenda?
Who stands to benefit?
I’m not sure punters give a stuff.
The reality is, more goals = more advertising revenue and broadcast media pays a bucketload for AFL rights.

Adelaide or Port interested in Ned according to Macedon connections. Might be gone before our pick. Shifter invited him to the draft..
Tigers should be interested, silly not to,

A lot of size obsessed posters ‘round here.
At our pick, we pick the best footballer. I’d be more than happy with Ned McHenry.
Top pressure act player. Top tackler. Biggest tank. Played midfield last year as a bottom ager. Looks like the type to move into the middle fairly quickly.
The type of...
Adelaide has three first rounders..
Just heard from a mutual friend that Ned McHenry’s mum is looking for a place over there. Would make sense.

Ned McHenry dominated my sons junior team at Macedon from the moment he turned up at Auskick bouncing the ball with both hands and snapping goals on both sides.
Was sad for us to see him leave for Portarlington, but have not been surprised to see his development through the Falcons.
Amazingly...
Conversely, If all of the above are already taken, who slips through? That would make for some interesting decisions. Might force us to go for best available rather than needs.
Like those two.
Oscar Allen might be the safest punt... Big wingspan, footballer, hard at it, fairly athletic and a goal kicker.
Bonar might be the best of the lot...
Two of the four will probably be around for our picks.
Happy days.

Two of the first three plus Naish seems a good thing to me. Big bodies, athletes, and play with intensity... and Naish.

I agree with The Gun. The question for Richmond is, will the other teams be ballsy enough to call their bluff on a skinny flanker?
They have said that they won't match in the first round.
It would be nice to get Naish, but pragmatically makes no sense to trade one of our picks up.
As it stands...
Watched Sheds closely in the match on Friday. He missed a lot of targets early with some very ambitious, creative split second handballs out of traffic toward moving players. Some of them he just missed, but quite a few didn't come off because the receiver was not ready or fast enough. He...
Gold Coast are desperate for pick 6. It gives them the possibility of 5 top ten (On potential) draft picks, provided no team bids on Bowes.
If we keep it and bid, (And Bowes would be worth it) they only get 3. So pick 6 for them has the potential to be worth 2 top ten picks.
We would like to...
If Lids would go north.... maybe Lids + 6 to Brisbane for Rockliff + 3
Not a big fan of Rockliff, but the threat of us bidding on Bowes would stuff GC's plans right up.
Take 6 out of the equation!
Force them to change plans.
