It might be small but getting two thirds for next year will make some difference. 2018 will be the making or breaking of us.

A massive year in the history of the club, when you combine it with the 22 blokes that will have to prove themselves next year.

We will know a lot more about a dozen of these blokes by this time next year.

Sloane, Guthrie, Lynch, Smith, Gray, Smith, Gaff, Dalhaus and Libba would all be worth a serious look.

Yep. Will know a lot more about players like Durdin (can he apply himself to stick at the level week in, week out?), Wood (can he stay on the park and actually boot some snags), Garner (is he around for another 100 games or another 30?), McDonald (is he that inside/outside high production mid we need or a flanker in a mid's guernsey?) and Simpkin (are you the one [we've been waiting for]) this time next year I reckon.

Draft Picks (5th round picks not included)

Adelaide: 1st, 1st (Melb), 2nd (Carl), 3rd (Carl), 4th (Melb)

Gold Coast: 1st, 1st (WCE), 3rd

Adelaide will already be on the phone to GC, whispering sweet nothings down the line. I expect GC to drop their strides too. They know they probably won't hold either of the S.A. boys.

Pick 1-2 to Adelaide, then trot off to the draft with 3 x 1st round picks in a super draft (7-8, 10-13 & 14-18)

Retire

Andrew Swallow - Retired
Jarrad Waite - Retired
Lindsay Thomas- Retired

Proven, but injury limbo

Ben Jacobs - ?????
Samuel Wright- ?????

Question marks

Cameron Zurhaar - Needs to show something
Declan Mountford - Needs to show something
Declan Watson - Needs to show something
Jed Anderson- Needs to show something
Josh Williams - Needs to show something
Mitchell Hibberd- Needs to show something
Nick Larkey - Needs to show something
Oscar Junker - Needs to show something

All 7 of these boys need to make their mark. I don't suspect they will all be contracted at the end of 2018.

This should be a roast thread.

Looking down the barrel of a rebuild, we only have picks 4, 23 that are worth using.

We were unable to do anything proactive or innovative to look at securing an extra pick at the draft to help the rebuild process.

We gained literally nothing.

We added third rounders for next year, mind you the only guaranteed players next year are Crocker and Thomas.

We could not even land Darcy Lang.

Absolutely no positive spin you can put on this, besides pick 4, our rebuild really doesn't properly begin until 2018 off-season. Hopefully by then, we will have hired some off-field muscle that is less hopeless.

Watson will be recovering from an ACL so I think we should be patient otherwise we're throwing a 2nd round pick away. Junker and Zurhaar will need to work since they're rookies but I think both are quite talented. Larkey seems to be developing well to me and is 197cm, think we should show patience. Mountford can't afford to go backwards due to his modest skillset, Hibberd needs to show he can get on the park and Josh Williams needs to show he can win the hard ball.

Watson won't be doing much next year. Surely we would give him 2019 at the least.

If we are ruthless we should be low balling Atley in contract talks all year.

A Motlop situation is best for everyone.

Pick after our second round would be a decent return and really give us a big boost.
 
Sloane, Guthrie, Lynch, Smith, Gray, Gaff, Dalhaus and Libba would all be worth a serious look.
They're the 3 I had tagged....Lynch I had tagged about 10 months ago. Financially best club to acquir. But will depend on what he wants.

However they're all restricted. Can only be one. For me it would be Lynch since I would imagine our 2017 and 2018 will be first round mids. But having said that we will need more than one first rounder and end of 2019 need at the min a first for Josh. Josh biggest priority for me so 2018 may just need to use all our picks.

Restricted doen't necessarily mean we have to pony up with the picks. We only have to come good with the coin.

I'd like some of that value picks with pace here. Guthrie & Dalhaus would do me.

They won't come to our club even on dusty money think about it for 12 months we are only going to nobodies or get drafts

Isn’t Larkey contracted until 2019?

I'm hoping we can convince Sam Wright and Shaun Atley to come across as free agents, besides those two and maybe Lynch and Gaff I am not sure if I have any interest in the rest. I can see the Hawks trying to trade us that Burgoyne guy though.

I didnt know that. So players would be the currency?

Yeh Guthrie I'd be open to too. I mean I'd be open to it if he was to come.

I'm a guy who doesn't give up and not sit on my ass and not try. Confident. Whatever the result it, one is best to try than not. Its a defeatist attitude that won't bring positive results long term.
