we should trade for petracca and then play him at sandy indefinitely, regardless of how good he plays..

Agree very bland less inside version of lachie neale
What about a ruck?
The best young ruck is Briggs ,doubt the Giants are that silly .
Personally would go draft , unless we can extract B King for something .
But think the Crows will go really hard for Rankine
The midfielders this years draft are good ..real good. Rowell ,Anderson , Young
Well both didn’t play a hundred for hawthorn either.Is that Matty Young's boy? Dean Anderson and Matty Young have gun F and S stock but somehow we couldn't get them to 100 games. Only the Saints can be that unlucky.

Our trading approach may be different this year as for once we give a stuff about draft points. I could see us using our first pick on a highly rated kid, gathering points to pick up Biggy, then going after a couple of mature gems late in the draft.We need to trade well.
Wont stay this way, and don't think we have any future dp swaps, but we currently have picks 17, 52 and 70 even if we end up with 12, 48 and 66, it is pretty skinny without a second rounder.
We need to look at trading out value if we want to have more picks or trade for players.
First priority are our OOC's like JB, Gres and Newnes.
Matt Maguire - 99 gamesIs that Matty Young's boy? Dean Anderson and Matty Young have gun F and S stock but somehow we couldn't get them to 100 games. Only the Saints can be that unlucky.
Ryan Byrne's from Sandy sounds like a nice type. Good contested ball winner, clean and fast. Doesn't sound like he'll be in contention for the top end but will be available mid to late first round at this stage.So who do we Draft or trade for with Pick 18?
Didn't realise Sexton was a FA, he'd be a good pick up.2019 AFL Free Agents we should prioritise. (info from club websites)
Cam Ellis-Yolmen, 26 - Height 190 cm Weight 96 kg
Ellis-Yolmen was let go from Adelaide’s senior list at the end of the 2017 season after rupturing his ACL in the JLT Community Series, but has been redrafted as a rookie. The big-bodied clearance winner worked diligently in his rehabilitation and returned to pre-season training with his 1-4 year teammates – a fortnight earlier than required. Will be out to prove himself again and add to his 14 AFL games.
Alex Sexton, 25 - Height 186 cm Weight 83 kg
He was used in a couple of roles, predominately as a pressure goal-scoring forward, but also enjoyed stints on the wing and the occasional run-with role. His flexibility made him a big asset to Stuart Dew, but Sexton also said the consistency of playing the majority of his football in the forward line helped his game last year.
Stephen Coniglio, 25 Height 182 cm Weight 86 kg
Bounced back from two serious ankle injuries in 2017 to again stamp himself as one of the game’s best two-way midfielders last season. Ranked second at the GIANTS for clearances, contested possessions and tackles, Coniglio was a surprise omission from the All-Australian squad. His 643 possessions for the year was one shy of his career-best and came at an average of 28 a game, but he also added 24 goals while playing forward to pick up some of the scoring the GIANTS missed with Toby Greene injured. The West Australian’s leadership in big games was again massive and his midfield presence will be even more crucial in 2019.
Adam Tomlinson, 25 - Height 194 cm Weight 96 kg
Played every game for the first time in a career-best season mostly on a wing, averaging 16.6 possessions and booting 12 goals, after being an important member of the GIANTS’ defence. With Tom Scully injured and Lachie Whitfield needed in defence, Tomlinson used his elite running ability to cover plenty of territory, and because of his height and athleticism, he was a tough match-up for opposition teams. Capable of playing at either end of the ground in the key positions and pinch-hitting in the ruck, Tomlinson is a valuable weapon for the GIANTS.
Coniglio - AA Midfielder
Tomlinson, would provide some great flexibility able to play defence or on the wing.
Sexton - Goal Kicking Potency
Yolmen - Fringe Player, whom has lots of talent, can pinch hit in the ruck - similar to acres?

Yolmen would be a good get if he came cheap.Didn't realise Sexton was a FA, he'd be a good pick up.
No interest in Ellis-Yolmen
Common sense suggests we have no hope. Don’t believe we are wasting our time on him. I believe we are doing exactly as it seems. Giving up on the real big names because it’s a waste and targeting the next level. Makes complete sense. Heard this from a good source.
Yolmen would be a good get if he came cheap.
Maybe only have this season to do that. It’s either one or 5 years.No thanks for me.
Dunstan a better footballer and supporters want to give him away.
Speed required / outside running players
Langdon ( Freo )
Martin ( Gold Coast )
Caldwell ( GWS ) if he wants to come home
Still have no one to replace Jack Steven .
Matt Maguire - 99 games
And I'll put it out there, Dylan Roberton - 91 games, two sons and a daughter
Don’t think Dylan’s children will be considered due to Dylan’s heart condition.
I think he's implying there's a risk of whatever Dylan has being passed onto his kids.What??? Fail to understand.
What??? Fail to understand.
I know someone who works at the Alfred and he said it was a cardiac arrest and that it’s most likely hereditary.
He said this basically rules his children out of being considered. He also said that he definitely should not have played the JLT game.

What about 2020 1st + 2019 1st for Martin & King.
We can’t determine even know if ribbon was right to play or not. Writing off kids 15 years before they can play seems a bit over the top
