Love the goat.Still keen on the goat
Hmmmmm apparently according to Grockadoc we want Gibcus so I hope we don't reach when we could have a top 10 midThese are power rankings not an expectation of where they will go in the draft.

No but the odds are higher and when you're picking 17/18 year olds it's a bit of a lotteryWhy, there's no guarantee the mids going to be good or have a straight impact if he's a 8/9 pick?
How can the game be going for speed when the STAND rule is designed to slow the rate of play on...kick...mark...stand...kick...stand...Wouldn’t pick up anyone if they don’t have good speed- that’s where the game is going.

so the rule change had opposite effect to Shockings plan? Who woulda thought?Dimma has quoted stats that the game has slowed substantially.

We looked very slow this year. We need more speed.How can the game be going for speed when the STAND rule is designed to slow the rate of play on...kick...mark...stand...kick...stand...
YES agree...more speed in the thinking department in between the players ears!We looked very slow this year. We need more speed.
There's a great interview with Arlo on the podcast with Nat Edwards and Cal Twomey on the AFL site from the last few days. Presented himself very well. Smart kid.I like the sound of Arlo Draper

Not to mention leading to the pocket which is just stupid.We need players to lead towards the guy with the footy. Have are look at our poor games this year and how often we turn the ball over forward of centre, have time to pick a pass, and every player forward of play is running away from the guy with the ball., and more often than not trailing their defender back towards goal. Drives me insane.
Still keen on the goat
The Goat 'er is a beastLove the goat.
Hoping we take four inside 30 picks to the draft through trading up.
Josh Rachele - X factor dynamo fwd/mid. Could be anything. Might just be too hard to pass up if he's there at our pick.
Mathew Roberts - left footed inside mid Matty Knights type. Clearance jet.
Amiss/Williams - best of the KPFs from WA. Big mobile sharpshooters to replace JR but not the big lumbering 200cm types we already have.
VanRooyen/Schlensog - best young KPD's (apart from Gibcus who I think will be a reach for us to use our first pick).
Use a late pick on a Narkle type to help with our deficiency around the ball (although I do think a fully fit and rested Cotch, Prestia, Edwards and RCD will mean we aren't as bad as we were this year).
Just my thoughts at this stage.

Lennon wasn't pick 6.I hope we don't end up with pick 6, always duds - e.g. Lennon
Lennon shouldt have been pick #60Lennon wasn't pick 6.
