Minimum cap is the scourge of the competition. Would be lucky to have been on $300k at a top team.

Good news. He is the new age Steven King. Put too many miles on the clock as a young ruck and is starting to pay for it now with the body starting to fall apart.

That's the attitude that makes our list management strategy successful. Keep it up.

There were people complaining about taking him so early on the Geelong board. We have taken mature ages at the end the very end of the national draft and the rookie draft that have not worked out but whenever we have coughed up actual draft capital for one it has been a hit (Taylor, Stewart and...

To be confirmed if Mannagh was a reach. People said Stewart was a reach when we took him. Obviously Essendon fans hoping he doesn't translate his VFL form to AFL given he was a freebie from the Dodo.

Dodo seemed pretty certain we would like a key back. I think he wanted Curtin to be available for us to pick, which left Caddy for them. Fair bit of talk we were after Caddy pre draft but I don't think he was a priority. Cameron should have 3-4 years left and we have Ollie Henry also as an...

Key Backs - SDK, Henry (O'Sullivan, Jeka) General Defenders - Stewart, Kolo, Bews, Zuthrie, Tuohy, O'Connor, Bowes, Mullin (Murdoch) Rucks - Stanley, Conway (Edwards, Furphy) Inside Mids - Dangerfield, C.Guthrie, Blicavs, Atkins, Bruhn, Parfitt, Clark (Stevens, Clohesy, Hardie, Willis)...

You probably wanted a F1 back with it

What are we risking exactly? If we did some of the stupid trades opposition supporters are proposing involving our future first, sure, that could end bad but trying to win has no downside in our current position really. We either play to win with the old guys and we might find out we are at...

Remind me also what you got for Buddy. You are living in fantasy land if you think compo is going to be adequate for good players.

Remind me again who Geelong drafted with the #1 pick when GC took the best player in the competition. Tassie won't give up jack s**t, AFL will stack the deck re any compensation.

Mackie should have held out another hour or so for Essendon's #73 instead

Why?

Mackie has got a promotion so he won't even being doing this job next year. Riding Port hard for Sav is Mackie going out with a bang.

We've had a lot of picks in that range courtesy of finishing high on the ladder over the years and it is very difficult to get a good player. The cream is off the board at that stage. We've done better recently with SDK and Holmes but it has basically been a wasteland for a decade otherwise...

I don't think we trade 8 for junk picks this year. If we trade it I think we would do so for a future pick + change to a team that thinks they will make finals next year but won't.

So North have pick 18 which becomes about pick 25, they've lost their two key defenders to free agency and an ACL, and they wouldn't pick Sav? Good luck with that.

North would take him pre season or national draft

Doubt Sav wants to play for North.

He is the new Josh Walker. Good size, athletic, decent grab, s**t kick, even has the Geelong family connection. I will take the pick thanks.

The team that has just lost their big key defender to free agency and are hoovering up a number of late first rounders that will end up around pick 20 on draft night might :)

Anything from Josh Jenkins is to be taken with a pinch of salt. Ask Adelaide supporters about him in the media. He is now out of coaching and nailing his mast to the good ship Hutchy. Click bait is now his game.

Nah. It is just complete bs from trade radio. Hawkins always waits to the end of the trade period before signing on.

People are reading way too much into Mackie's comments Our first pick is available if someone offers deal of the century, otherwise we will just use it

An elite midfielder full stop

Menegola officially retired the other day

All 3 are going to want to play loose to go for the intercept marks. That's the best attribute for all of them.

And 10 goals / goal assists to Hawkins. Though I think they may have changed it up after the Hawk kicked 6 in the first half. Esava going up in value if this is their plan B

MoC is just a pawn on CS chess board Big bodied athlete that runs all day and does what he is told, primarily defensive objectives He is not a very good footballer but there would be zero chance they get rid of him Not going to be able to clear out the players we need to and then replace...

He is no world beater but is an AFL standard key defender and will be better in a team not getting flogged week in week out. Pick 19 would be around fair value, definitely not overs. We gave up a pick slightly earlier than that for Lachie Henderson, and got good service out of him, and that is...
