Apologies for any inconvenience. We will try to find a replacement.
Apart from his obvious talent/skill, this kid speaks incredibly well, you can see why clubs consider him a top 10 pick.
P.S I apologise if you become nauseous listening to them fawn over which private school he went to... Ignore that at the start.
This has been creeping into the game for a few years now and it's disgusting but I blame the AFL media - especially the commentators.yeah wtf, Xavier producing 'some of Australia's finest men'
pass, instantly! Happy for him to squirt his own bathwater around some other club.
No need for Cumbo to nominate as he's been placed back on the senior list. I'm guessing we did that after the pick trade with Collingwood.

Success % should be up this year.I think phantom drafts go to peoples heads at this time of the year. Contrary to what Shifter Sheahan will say, the draft isn’t packed full of guns, history tells us there is likely 15 players who will have a good career and 5 of those will likely be taken in the first 7 spots.

ConfirmedNever going to get 5 guns
Happy with 1 gun and another 200 game player , If we get 2 x 200 game players and 1 Gun thats A+

We were prepared to do it with Horne.Can't see why we wouldn't do it for Callaghan.And where did I say 5 “guns”? I said 5 good footballers, and that’s a strong possibility given the commentary around regarding this draft. To even think about giving up say 7, 15 and one of our seconds for Callaghan is absolute madness. Imo of course
Not sure.Wasn’t Cotchin damaged goods ( as you put it) when we drafted him at pick 2?

Least we'll know who the Saints take before we're to make a trade with Ess.StKilda would be our most likely trading partner if we are to involve #15 + 2nd rounder
But they could also be into Sinn as well
I would rather keep our picks as they are and only want to trade for Lions #18 with F2+26
When is Draft Night?!?Fuq me…draft night is taking forever….too long!
Thoughts are we arent into him.Callum Toomey said on podcast that the tigers had not spoken to Ben Hobbs since April.... That seems strange given everyone reckons we are into him. Thoughts?
Splitting the pick is the last thing they'll do. They already look bad enough and won't risk making another mistake by passing up a top 3 pick.After the Hugh Greenwooddebacle apparently now Gold Coast have to take an extra pick in the draft. They may HAVE to split pick 3…PLAYERCARDSTART1Hugh Greenwood

Wed & ThursWhen is Draft Night?!?
But on the other hand there are players who were touted as top-5 early in the season who have slipped due to not being able to get on the park or not playing much : Sinn, Sonsie. Just look at some of the phantom drafts from months ago…So I’m more inclined to think it’s a great draft to have 5 x picks to ‘scatter gun’ the top-30, and I believe we will get 5 x players we rated as top-15. Whereas normally the top-15 is pretty much locked in stone.
In a ‘normal’ draft you’d be lucky to get 1 x A-grader and 2 x B-graders with our picks. This draft we are a good chance to get 2-3 x A-graders and a B-grader due to a lack of exposed form and having 5 x throws at the dart board where future superstars are going to slip like never before.

December.. !?Wed & Thurs
Ugh 2 nights again? Jesus weptWed & Thurs
First round is on Wednesday night. The rest of the draft is on Thursday.When is Draft Night?!?
Whilst I hate it (just because it's a televised event doesn't mean they can't just complete it in one go), at least we have two first rounders so won't just see one pick and be done for the day.First round is on Wednesday night. The rest of the draft is on Thursday.
