This would be good IMO
7 Ward
Trade 15 & 28 to StKilda for 9
9 Erasmus
Trade 2022 first round selection to GWS for 13
13 Amiss
26 Bazzo
27 Zac Taylor
The advantage with that is we'll know who we got @7 before we start talking turkey with the above.

Fahey isn’t exactly a need. Would be disappointed if we took him ahead of Van Rooyen if he’s still there
Did you see Bale Dale & Daniels delivery coming out of the dogs defence.Thats what we need to be honest.Players who can hit a team mate(Lynch or Jack preferably) on the chest.
 
He might still be there at 15 (17) ?
He might be gone. Mids (what we need most other than key forward/back) that might be available to us around out pick are Ward, Hobbs, Rachele, Draper and Sonsie. I would prefer Goater from what I have seen, (which isn't much) over them.

If we go tall, which would be good as long as they are quality, then I'd hope he slips to 15, but I don't think that will happen. Tall, fast, aggressive mids are pretty sought after, looks to have a tonne of potential to me.

Yeah agreed that we need mids. I'd be wary of Rachele given he is more a small forward than a mid. The LAST thing we need right now is another Jack Higgins type that looks great in the u18s but at AFL level is good for about 10-15 possessions and maybe a goal. We have a dearth of players like that. We badly badly need genuine (jen-you-eye-n) midfielders, not just for the future but to re-top us off now whilst we have a bit of a window left. Definitely don't wanna see us drafting anymore Lennon types either, what a waste that was when we coulda had Cripps.

As for Goater, yeah maybe, from what I've seen he doesn't seem much different to Ross/RCD. Where possible we really need that proper mid that gets 30+ and is everywhere. At 7 (9) I worry we're just outside the bracket of getting the player we need. If we take Rachele I'll be very upset. If all the mids are gone like Callaghan, Hobbs, Ward, we may as well just go best available and get the best defender in the crop. Not to meme but we need to stock up there too and Balta can play forward down the track if our defence is well stocked, so would prefer a defender over a forward. Then we can go the ball winners in the 20-30 bracket and hopefully still get some guys with size and the ability to accumulate.

But yeah, at 7 I badly want the top midfielder echelon and if we can snare Ward I'd be stoked.

Goater went at 24 disposal a game which is not too shabby. His running and agility seems really good which separates him a bit from Ross and RCD. Bit of a cross between the two actually. But he has real speed, which is such a bonus in AFL these days.
 
my wish list on draft night

pick 7 ---one of these please..hobbs,,,ward,,,rachele,,,erasmus

pick 15----one of these please,,,sinn,,,goater,,,chesser,,,johnson...sonsie

7. Hobbs
15. Sinn
26-28. Chesser Williams Bazzo

Hybrid bigger bodied midfielders in Sinn & Chesser
KPP Williams & Bazzo
 
Just saw this trade suggestion on the Freo board and thought it had merit for us and GWS. Thoughts?
Hate it.

Freo give out picks worth 2699 points but gets back picks worth 3053 including a couple of firsts.

GWS give out picks worth 3729 points and gets back picks worth 3395

We give out picks worth 3485 and get back picks worth 3865.

I'd much rather try and do 7 15 & 26 for GWS 2 & 13. Which means we get our pick of the crop at 2 and Amiss/JVR at 13, while GWS gets Andrews another quality kid at 15 and has 26 to match a bid on Fahey.

I stopped reading when you said draft points.
 
Richmond 2,19 (7,15,26 out)
GWS 6,7 (2,13 out)
Fremantle 8,13,15,26 (6,19 out and keep 8)

Could someone please send this to all three clubs involved. The Fremantle person who came up with this gave it some really good thought.

I don't know, I still think we could do some amazing future pick trading on draft night with 26,27,28 intact. Plus every high quality pick we give limits in the breath and scope of our regeneration. Very loath to give that up. Plus why 26? I get one of our three 20 picks would be the steak knives but I don't see it has to be that one when we have 28 available.

Ultimately it's about how good is Callaghan. If they are convinced he becomes the next Dusty then fine. If he's just very very good then I'd rather keep our draft hand and just see what unfolds on the draft night(s)
 
Unless we get a great deal (2021 or 2022) I am quite happy to go with the picks we have. great hand.

I know it's boring to just have a great draft hand and use it. But unless we get those top few guys I don't see why we'd bother.
 
Thinking about the draft for 5 minutes

1. North -JHF
2.Bulldogs - Darcy
3.Pies - Daicos
4. GWS - Andrew
5. Gold Coast - Callaghan/Gibcus/Hobbs
6. Adelaide - Callaghan/Rachelle
7. Hawthorn - Ward/Hobbs
8. Fremantle - Erasmus
9. Richmond - Ward/Hobbs/johnson
10.Fremantle - Amiss
11. St Kilda - goater
12 .Eagles - johnson
13. Ess -Nwm
14. Port - Draper
15. GWS - Butler
16. Brisbane - Sonsie
17. Richmond - JVR/Sinn
What happened to Rachelle if Gold Coast go Gibcus and Adelaide go Callaghan?

Watched the Mock Draft on the HS site just now, why? Because I'm a sucker.

Anyway, they did a live trade between Richmond and Adelaide at Pick 6 (after bids) where Richmond give up 9 and 17 for 6 and 35 (plus future swaps)... and then select Ben Hobbs.

I can't see us doing anything like that when Ben Hobbs could be available at our pick anyway.

I get the feeling we'd only live trade for Callaghan..... maybe Ward.

That Hobbs move would never happen
