Is it just me or is it increasingly likely the Lions will get a priority pick?
Reckon it'll be:
1. Essendon - McCluggage
2. Brisbane - Brodie
3. Brisbane - (Bowes bid) McGrath
4. Fremantle/Whoever ends up with this pick - Ainsworth
5. Gold Coast - Bowes
6. Carlton - SPS
Pick 6 is where I think the potentially elite talent ends. There's some potentially top 10 on list players like Clarke etc in the teens that would help us but my 'not for trade' pick threshold is at pick 6.
I'm somewhat hopeful that, if they do get one, it will be at the end of the first round.
If they ended up with 2 + 3, though, I don't think they'd be taking two mids.
Rockliff, Zorko, Beams, Hanley, Rich, Robinson, Bell, Mathieson, Keays, Jansen. Not a bad cohort of mids.
Could see them taking a chance on Marshall or even English at 3.
Essendon - McLuggage
GC - Bowes (matching bid from Brisbane)
Brisbane - Brodie
Brisbane - English/Marshall
Freo - SPS/Marshall
Carlton - SPS/Ainsworth/McGrath
