After listening to the north list manager today I’m thinking they will only grab Tauru if they split their picks. He said with pick 2 in such a strong draft you draft the best available player. In the event they split their pick, that’s when they will look at recruiting for possible need
might be playing ducks and drakes. i think they want tauru. they cant wait til a pick 7/8 from saints cos melb will take him the pick after us.

We've been reasonably good with our early picks in recent times. Given he'll likely be a midfielder I'd imagine they'll play early
one of dow problems is he is slow. draper is fast
I think North is in a position where they could go early with him if they can't find someone to trade down. They have taken so many mids over the last few years so taking a defender that high and missing out on one of the mids isn't a big deal. They desperately need more talent in their defence.
He did seem keen on the idea of splitting the picks
Yeah but how many clubs have multiple picks in the top 8 - 10 picks? None currently and surely they'd only trade down a couple of spots with their 1st for pick 2?
nobody gonna do it this year because of depth of draft. i reckon they got no hope which is why they desperately want to get rid of their F1 whether for houston or a top 5 pick this year
Maybe
Dow was known for his burst speed in his draft year
Also no one really knows where Tauru might end up playing
It’s actually not a bad comparison if Draper was to tank at afl level ( FWIW I don’t think he will tank but only be a B+ type )
Surely Richmond is the best chance to trade up? To get Lalor and FOS. Then NM takes Tauru at 6
Bit rich saying Curtin played as a mid this year isn’t it and to then include his average stats when he played so many games as a sub.
Agree - smith is the surest bet of the lot
I’ll be rapped if that happens , there’s our A grade mid even though the ceiling isn’t as high as a Lalor
You reckon using average stats for Curtin and referring to his season as a midfielder is spot on and not lazy analysis?
Go and look at his possessions per TOG
They will try, but can’t afford to slide further than 5 IMO, and so it would only be for a F2 from us WC or Melbourne. No ones giving up 2 top 10 picks in this draft to get to 2.
