Great result for the Pies in terms of the draft for us as:
1. Gets their draft pick owned by GWS up the order to ensure a bid will come for one of their players around 7-8
2. Hopefully Pies can finish above Melbourne and get that pick up the order

Fair game.

I agree. If we could trade Dion and Pick 4 (which would likely be used on Bowes) for pick #1, we would have to consider that
On paper it looks like we are being sodomised, but when you really think about it, it's a massive win win for both clubs
I don't even like the perception that we have been sodomised. Other clubs will come looking to sodomise us year after year, which would be painful (pardon the pun).
Prestia + #9 + Matera and/or Shaw (Bluey's boys) for #1
Prestia, Matrea and an early 2nd rounder is more than adequate for pick 1
This gets us McCluggage, Bowes plus another gun at 9 plus Sheer. 4 best 22 players
And best of all no sodomising

I think Matera has turned a corner these last couple of weeks.
Id like to keep him..

He'd have a bit of currency with a side who needs a small foward. GC have enough flashy players.
Like Aaron Hall he plays better when the team plays better and he can run forward of the ball. Don't want too many players in a team doing that and if I have to choose I am choosing Aaron Hall over Matera.
Didn't realise this.

So almost one third of picks in the first 2 rounds belong to us? Umm... I dont think so.
We have 6 in the first 36. Our 1st, MELB 1st, Our 2nd, RICH 2nd, FRE 2nd, PORT 2nd.
If you add our picks and GWS's there is a combined 11 of the first 36? Maybe thats where they got that figure from.

Terry Wallace's Phantom draft.
Has us taking Scheer at 16, English at 9 and Bowes at 4.
Why do we need another skinny young ruckman? We've already got Tom Nicholls
Would much rather a McGrath or Venables. Pick up another mature ruckman later on if needed.

Assuming Tom Nichols remains at the club!

We have Crossley waiting in our academy wings to step up and take Nicholls spot
I reckon every good AFL club has 2 ruckman on their list and a developing ruckman on their list.
Nicholls leaving would leave Currie and the Brooksby.
Did Terry Wallace just get Bored sitting at home..
Re badged himself as ' The List Manager'
Then just follows Cal Twomeys power rankings?
Or is he legit watching every game?
He said the Suns will have to find points to get to pick 16 to pick up Scheer as that's where the bid will come from.
Wallace you spud. We have like 8000 points. Relax man.
Do your research

Hi BD
I would be interested in who (and type of player) the GCS require in the draft. Generally the big blokes are not going to hit the ground running but are good for future proofing.
Wallace is Laughable - Shifter must have been pissing his pants at some of his comments, and Twomey and Knightmare would have turned over in their graves if they were dead
Dylan Clarke gives run and carry - he is one of the most inside mids in the draft
GWS won't get any bids until pick 8??
Us needing points?
No love for McCreadie in the top 20 - either he has totally forgotten him or is a pretty ballsy call
If Nicholls leaves then Currie is our #1 ruck, Crossley becomes the developing ruck in 2018 and they just find the best mature age #2 back up at the best value we can get (but someone who can ruck at AFL level - i.e. not Brooksby)
EDIT: Leslie is the same size as Brooksby and played ruck in TAC cup so possibly he could play ruck, or when in doubt just throw Sam Day in there when needed.

For arguments sake if this stayed the same (unlikely) I could see some horse trading with some of the picks.
If JOM, Prestia and/or Nicholls left then there would be some good compensation picks.
Realistically not all of them could be used. Therefore some could be swapped/upgraded (for the next year).
The options are limitless.
