What is the hype around Fantasia now? South Australian who plays mildly well = must get?

21 year old kid that can snap a goal like Eddie, who just kicked 38.21 in 19 games. Good tackle numbers, big I50 numbers. Can cover the ground like a mid, but kicks goals like a specialist forward. And is South Australian. If we lose Lever we need to spend that on players. Not take a player from the draft that will be 3 years away at best from being what Orazio is now.

Where is the 22-25 year old SA talent that we can lure back. Cupboard is bare. Francis? - f@ck no. He is steak knives.

We are getting forced to trade Lever for picks. We need to spend those on players that can impact our campaign for the 2018 flag straight away. Anyone who thinks Orazio wouldnt improve us considerably hasnt been paying attention. I would prefer we spent the Lever picks on JGov, but is more likely to be off the table. But a good pick (s) from the Lever trade may be enough to prize Orazio away.

Gallucci and Jarman are more than enough in the pipeline for small forward stocks. Why on earth we would strengthen our strongest part of the ground instead of needs idk. If we want to start listing unrealistic targets...

Let's get Heppel
Let's get Merret
Let's get Viney
Let's get Treloar
All just as likely, and fit needs more than Orazio.

My god people. Why on earth would they even consider trading Fantasia? It seems like you've just picked him out due to being South Australian. Not considered team needs or reality. We strengthen the midfield and potentially class KPD stocks, with players that are realistically obtainable.
 
Peter J has info we are interested in Ben Cunnington (as mentioned on the Crow Cast)

I can categorically say that Rockliff has not and is not an option for us. As of right now, we have not had, nor do we have any interest in Rockliff.

Rockliff is quality but he is pretty similar to our existing midfield mix

We need more inside/out run.

Wouldn't say no if we got him, but I do think he's pretty similar to what we have.

A rich man's Jarryd Lyons. Great inside, tough in the clinches, digs it out and can go forward.

But we have a lot of that, we need work off the ball. Spread and run.
 
I don't really see a need at around that pick in the phantom drafts I read, and allegedly not that strong of a draft. Upgrade the team and pick up elite SA talent next year.
There are three top talents from SA next year, and they will be well gone before we get our first pick.
Unless we get some top 5 picks next year.

Would be interested. could be very smart recruiting if Lever goes to North

Cunnington and a pick could be very interesting

Why would we get Cunnington over Rockliff? Very similar players, one is contracted for 3 years and would cost a fortune at the trade table, the other is a free agent
 
Lever + 2018 2nd rounder -> Collingwood.
Collingwoods pick 6 and 2018 1st -> Adelaide.
Cameron -> Brisbane
Brisbanes send Ports 1st (pick 14) -> Adelaide.

Pick 6, Pick 14, Pick 18, Pick 36 in the draft.
Pick 6 for Fogherty
Pick 14 for Gibbs
Pick 18 CCJ
Pick 36 for Jackson
Upgrade Keath and Greenwood.

Then maybe our first next year with Collingwoods could be put together for a top 5 pick to get Rankine or Jack.
