Apologies for any inconvenience. We will try to find a replacement.
Every team is in the same boat ...it's a 50/50 bet ...last year we traded our first for one this year ...now people want to trade forward again ...at some point we are actually going to have to take some players
Fits the need for a wing potentially
Yep unless a big slider is available. We'd probably be able to upgrade 28 for an earlier pick next year to someone like a Carlton or St kildaAfter trading 3 picks for 27?
He could slot straight into that role for us next year. Has that mix of speed and endurance that we love.Fits the need for a wing potentially

Or we could select a kid who's rated in the top 30.I reckon we will only take 4 picks in the national draft
Holding back 1 pick to be used in the supplementary list
We will either combine 2 of our second round picks to move up into a late first round or very early second round pick
Or trade our last pick in the second round to a club for
There next years first or early second round pick,,,
With our 4 picks,,3 mids one kp
And train 2 -3 kp players over summer who ever is da best
Goes on the list

Bit of a fluff piece with Will Thursfield. But we get what we can.
Big focus on character. Comfortable with what they know about the players.
Sinn at 11? Really boy l was hoping we can get him with 15 ?
I’m sure he’ll go earlier. Gun footballer.

Biggie if picked up gets a new 2 year contract.Or hasn't had interest from another club.
Biggie probably has had some seductive whisperings in his ear.

I'd be surprised if our strategy is getting leaked out a week ahead of the draftI'm hearing its Josh Sinn at our 1st pick regardless of Hobbs or Wards availability.
All in on Sinn
Seriously though
Sifting through game replays this bloke has class coming out of all areas. Elite left foot nice size and oozes leadership. Will be a great fit at pick 9 and will play straight away!
it’s funny I’ve gone back into some deep dives of draft experts and forums on here and reading stuff from 2019 is fantastic seeing who stood out and who was predicted to shine. Sinn and Rachele were the 2 along with Sonsie. Who’d of thought after winning flags back then and reading about those kids that we might have the chance to get 2 of them next Thursday night.
I can’t bloody wait
It’s really cool to think the last few years our pick 15 on night 1 of the draft (normally later) was all about us looking at a slider but having that pick 7(9) gives us so much more room to dream of who we recruit. Makes great reading and speculation
Would say 0 mateWonder what the chances of sonsie falling to 26
Very trueI'd be surprised if our strategy is getting leaked out a week ahead of the draft
Our club is pretty good at keeping our cards held pretty close these days
I'm hearing its Josh Sinn at our 1st pick regardless of Hobbs or Wards availability.
Very true
Do hope with the Sinn rumour that we are keeping 7 for Erasmus/Ward/Hobbs and looking at moving that 15 up a few spots to get Sinn if it’s a real rumour
It depends whether we view him as just a line breaking half back, or we see him as a wing who could move into the middle in future.Drafting Sinn is not really what the team needs and in no way should be reaching for him at 7.
Mansell, Short, Rioli, Stack are all fighting for the same spot. There is space on the wing potentially, but is a wingman exactly what the team needs?
At 15 is a different story, Sinn would be a good pick
I agree.Our only chance outside of being shit again to get A grade talent to replace Cotch/Sheds/Prestia etc is do whats needed this year while we have the capital.Yeah, I agree we need to use our picks.
I’d give up 7, 15&27 to get Callaghan at 2. At least give us a decent chance at a genuine gun.
If this theory of there being guns all throughout the draft holds then it shouldn’t matter if we push two picks to the back as according to some on here there will be talent that slides.
Personally I’d like to see us get 1 potential Agrader, and two more developing talents and keep the last two spots for the mid season draft. There will be a lot of players who didn’t get sufficient exposure this year and will come on quickly with some footy next year.
