Hanners is our Daisy Thomas

Still think we'd be silly not to go to the Giants and split our picks.
Seems like the perfect year to do it.

I’ve got the answer.......
Underhand dealings with the afl....
GC PP pick 2
Saints PP 19
GC get Seb and 19
Saints get 2 (Anderson)
Then,
Pick 3 to GWS for Caldwell and a first (sliding Kemp)

Yeah, absolutely zero chance, but it would give GC what they need in a mature leader.
We get some potential A grades in the midfield.
And gws get a top pick before their guy is bid on.
Winners all round in my eyes..... especially us

The thing is gringo we’re talking about draft age kids who have an injury.
Freeman had massive problems with his hamstrings and two years in at a top club couldn’t get on the park. Smith was a wreck career over stuff, I think we figured we might as well have a look you never know. Hanners is not a deal I would have made but having said that does anyone know apart from the generic he’s cooked what’s wrong with him?. I still think we need to give him next season before we call it.
The strategy of drafting injured players who the club has a full medical on is sound and is common enough in the NFL. The patriots who rarely have high picks have done very well out of it rob gronkowski was just one example of a player who slid because of injury.
One important point to note though is they need to have slid out of their normal uninjured range otherwise you carry all the risk for no benefit, think battle and bytel.
Does anyone have a true copy of the list of our player rankings from pre-2014 draft? The list was supposedly published in Emma Quayle’s book The Draft.
Cheers in advance

For me depends where freo finish. An upgrade for them gets them away from Henry territory. Although if we have pick 4 or 5 and Kemp is seriously injured I'd honestly consider just reaching for Flanders and not risking it.

Let’s just wait and see how the trade period plays out before we worry about the draft.
Not to mention we have no idea what pick or picks we’ll have and you can trade picks on the night, it would need to be a big win to trade out of the top 4 imo.

Not very bright if you see him as a HBF at AFL level

Was on twitter yesterday. Hurt it playing school footy..
From Cal Twomey
Brodie Kemp, who shaped as a possible top-10 draft pick, went down with a knee injury earlier today playing school footy. Fingers crossed, but there are fears it could be serious.

Half back flank?
gringo2011
Premium Platinum
Yeah, he's more running half back/ wing but has all the goods to be a special player. I really like his game, he's more like a Johannisen type and worse case a sort of Shane Savage.
Young is a better user and seems a bit more composed but Ash is quick and evasive. I'd love to get him into the side somehow but can't see us going for him.

Interesting in the Bigfooty Phamtom Draft just completed none of our zone players were selected - Bigoa, Voss or Milne.

We can almost rule a top 3 pick out with draw we have. Will probably end up being around 5. Not that disappointing when it looks as though we'd end up with a back flanker at 3 anyway, but it would probably rule out being able to trade our pick with Giants two first rounders.
I don't think we can afford to take Kemp if he's done his knee, especially when he is yet to prove he can really become a quality midfielder.
Not a bad year to trade out your first rounder imo.

This is eDPS's July rankings. I really don't understand how Deven Robertson managed to go down one spot after his Champs.
