Apologies for any inconvenience. We will try to find a replacement.
The trade we made with Collingwood seems weird then.
May have been better to keep picks 38 and 40 in this year’s draft as well as a future third-round selection.?
He hasn't played forward since his first year, we wouldn't really know what difficulties that would be. Jack Riewoldt was dropped multiple times in his early years. To me Balta has every attribute of a CHF, good in the air, good mover, good at ground level, aggressive, is a force around the ball and can kick it 60m off a step. Agree he can rest then come in as a second ruck later in the Q, but until he is tried there, none of us know what he will be like. He can always go back if he doesn't impact. We pretty much played the whole year without a CHF and it showed.I like the idea of Balta out of the backline. But I'd be rotating him in the ruck too. Playing permanent forward has its difficulties
Post the whole order champThe hun phantom draft has Hobbs @ 8 now
Freo screwing us over almost on purpose, rather than grabbing the best available and local talent. Johnson arguably better than Hobbs anyway.The hun phantom draft has Hobbs @ 8 now

How is it Freos fault some nuff put Hobbs going to them in a phantom?Freo screwing us over almost on purpose, rather than grabbing the best available and local talent. Johnson arguably better than Hobbs anyway.
Freo could probably go both Hobbs and Johnson. Just lost Cerra, Mundy will be done in a year or two and Fyfe is pretty cooked with his shoulder troublesFreo screwing us over almost on purpose, rather than grabbing the best available and local talent. Johnson arguably better than Hobbs anyway.

I should have put an eyeroll emoji or something sorry, as I'm sure that's not really their goal.How is it Freos fault some nuff put Hobbs going to them in a phantom?
I'll stake my reputation as a high quality BF poster on Freo taking local boys at 8 and 10 - there's just too much WA talent there at that stage to risk going for a flight risk. With covid restrictions over the past 2 years, flight risk and the appeal of home is bigger than ever I feel.Freo screwing us over almost on purpose, rather than grabbing the best available and local talent.

But... it would be weird to choose Hobbs who is a VIC boy and a Richmond supporter, if WA boys Johnson, Amiss and Erasmus are still on the board. Unless they just rate Hobbs that highly.
He's going to be 3rd banana to Lynch and JR. My concern is if we play like we did in 2021. Horrible ball movement. It's a waste of Baltas talent.. I have never really seen him play as a deep fwd and with his prodigious kick Baltad be better at half fwd at least.He hasn't played forward since his first year, we wouldn't really know what difficulties that would be.

I agree but can’t see him getting past Port. Would just compliment their young core so wellSonsie would be the steal of the draft at 17.![]()
Whos trading a future 1st?
Geelong again maybe.
If I were a giants fan I would have no issues adding calla to that group
I actually thought we would be trying to do the opposite of what Clarke said. Turn 17 and one of our seconds into a lower pick in first round. To try grab 2 of Hobbs ward gibcus sinn Johnson amiss Erasmus ect. Still leaves us with 4 picks

Here you go chief. If you guess all the Josh's right captain blood 17 will give you a BJPost the whole order champ
Is gobbs and sonsie a euphemism for something?I know a lot of you have heard stuff but a mate of mine says dead set we are into sonsie. He says gobbs and sonsie are all but done.
