Apologies for any inconvenience. We will try to find a replacement.
Pies have only 1 list spot vacant, they will have to delist 5 uncontracted players and then use their picks to redraft them + Daicos. I doubt they need any more picks in this draft and the have SFA next year as well.It may well be draft night but we all believe that 38 and 40 will be traded either before draft night or on draft night, nonetheless pick 27 would be awesome to get as it would give us 26, 27, 28
Pies handling of their list and player payments have been disastrous.
For most of those pics 36, 43, 46, 48, 55, 58, (points will be eaten up on Daicos), they have offered pick 58 to Dogs, low balling so not sure what will happen there. I don't think they will take more than 3 players in the draft, as last year they picked 8 kids, 6 in the ND and 2 in the RD
Daicos plus 2 others, that's why i hope we get 27 and they get 38 and 40 off us.
Btw Parker has resigned with the club.
Would also consider Burgoyne and Butler at 27Motlop or Knevitt
Yeah, I know theirs a contrast in these 2. A small forward and a big tall mid. If for argument's sake we do get pick 27 off the pies, then id make one amendment, Long out (who I had at pick 38) and Motlop or Knevitt in. I'd go Motlop first, purely to give us a good balance of picks. 2 tough mids, 1 key forward, 1 key back and a small dynamic forward.
7 - Hobbs
15 - Goater
26 - Williams
27 - Motlop or Knevitt
28 - Bazzo

I’m so bloody excited for this draft
Even if we don’t trade up we’re gonna get 2 out of
Ward
Erasmus
Hobbs
Rachele
Andrew
Gibcus
Johnson
Goater
Amiss
Sinn
Van Rooyen
Roberts
Draper
We’ll get 2 beauties
Then hopefully a few sleepers in the 20’s. Massive draft coming up and the best we’ve had really since Gold Coast and Gws came in and raided the drafts when we were crap
Wish it was sooner
Who do you take with #27 then
Motlop or Knevitt

Reckon hard gut running mids is every bit important as clearance specialists. Not much use being the best clearance player in the competition if you can’t get to the next contest.God we keep overrating dead ordinary players. RCD just does not get enough possession. His lack of tank is an excuse. If he wasn’t an early pick, he’d be off the list.
Would you not consider a forward at 26?
Van Rooyen, Amiss ,or other

Still a lot of decent players left on the board after 30 including Bazzo and Aleer, both fine intercepting KPD's.

I do like his inside game but from what footage we have seen (limited) he appears to lack spread and burst from congestion but you do find some players (elite) that can play high level of football with these traits but is hobbs at their level ?Not sure l am sold on Hobbs;
Can we please get your take on him as l think there’s others available at pick 7 l rate higher ?

If we could just get 1 more pick in the teens for 2 of our 20sAmiss will be gone by 26. Van Rooyen most likely gone too.
The more Im watching Roberts the less Im liking him, actually starting to really dislike him. Almost has to be carrying something or deliberately tanking his value.
If not shaping as a massive slider come draft day.
Would you not consider a forward at 26?
Van Rooyen, Amiss ,or other
Would also consider Burgoyne and Butler at 27
His highlights reel is insane.
Might fit well being a bit older @ 20
