There's no better insensitive to get our shit together and win the premiership now. Would it would be amazing to have the cup and know Freo got the last first round pick instead of pick 2.
 
I will review with more time but here is a quick view of what we might do with that hand

13 - Constable - General in the guts
21 - L Fogarty - excellent inside mid
26 - Worpel - tough inside mid
32 - Kelly - inside outside mid with pace
37 - Allen - KPF that can chop out in ruck (may be a stretch)
You spelled Clarke wrong.

The amount of panic when I got the notification of West Coast trading there first round pick was unsettling.

Then I recognised it was 2018 draft.

Rawlings has openly said they rate this draft more than 2018 so two picks in the 20’s and 37 is good.

Think one of those picks will see us draft Tim Kelly, more likely to be currently pick 26, 21 if there is any grave danger of him falling higher 20’s.

37 maybe to late.

We still have 32 remember and that is about right.

32 Kelly

37 Ryan?
 
I guess if you're a pessimest it can't be helped. theres no reason to think we can't make the 8 again.
Bit unfair to take that from my statement: "We'll probably finish about 10th next year".

Particularly when, in the same post, I say: "But we have the list to do much better than 10th, so the power is in our hands".

Nothing there rules out a top 8 finish, or is pessimistic.

At first i was fuming with our first rounder but next year we will have 2 second rounders and 2 4th rounders to go along with a 3rd rounder. GC will struggle so it could be pick 19-21 next year which is close to a first rounder. Then there is a chance Gaff going by FA which would be either A an end of first rounder so pick 19 OR we we force a trade and get better value.

Brady has taken a big punt which can either pay off or fail but at least it is something different.
 
Yeah I feel like they definitely paid overs . But Gibbs is contracted and Adelaide obviously think they're very close to a premiership.

Not unlike us in 15.. but we went with Redden
I like what Adelaide have done. When you are that close to a flag you push all the chips into the middle and hope the cards land right. Sloane, Gibbs and Crouch x2 is a petty great top 4 midfielder group
