I'm all about
sustained success. If Stringer doesn't test well and we assess that Hogan is better than anyone else we can get I'm all for going after both Martin & Hogan.
In a deal like that we could easily take back a 2nd or 3rd round pick as these aren't as important to GWS with them having to trim their list.
We already have problems giving all our youngsters enough game experience so we could use next year more of an assessment year for several of youngsters to see if they should be apart of the next phase of the club.
We are going to be pretty bad regardless but this gives us a better chance at getting a Boyd or Aish rather than pick 6.
It's not like we wouldn't have other picks - we have seen in the past how lower/rookie picks can come in and also make an impact immediately (Dahlhaus, Dickson etc)
Even if you don't agree with me as many of you won't, you can't argue that Martin & Hogan wouldn't fill our two greatest needs
Martin is still priority #1 though
Imagine how exciting 2014 would be with potentially 3 top 5 picks coming into the side
