Depends on the timeline.

A top 10 pick, plus Harry Dean who is considered a top 10 pick himself - that's the "higher" you're looking for just on a longer timeline.

Florent isn't moving the needle himself, but the list is geared to play a certain way and we're going to need to take a few players of varying "levels" to help address the skill profile. Over the next few seasons, bring in some elite talent (Jagga, Dean, Top 10 kid, Walker), some role players with the right skills (Florent, Rosas, Ison etc.), and hopefully by 2027 we're able to actually keep up with other sides in the run-and-gun game the AFL is clearly trying to manufacture.
Yeah it may well be.
I’m more looking at being aggressive this trade period if we can. Push hard and bring in as many good to very good players as we.
If we get it right this off season, then there’s no reason why we can’t be in it up to our eyeballs next year imo. That’s where we should be aiming.(and reading between the lines, it seems wright is planning this way as well)
 
Kamdyn McIntosh has been told to look elsewhere.

He's exactly the type of senior hardened competitor with premiership experience that we need to mentor our youngsters.

Bring him in please.

The pies brought in Billy Frampton, a washed up Tom Mitchell, and Oleg Markov - which launched them to a premiership. Every team needs those cheap C-grade pickups to fill holes. Florent is proven at least too
 
Ross the Boss aiming at becoming 'Coach of the Year' in 2026.. with Premiership potential. :think:
It's getting serious at the Aints ... especially if they land our TDK.

B_F .. I can come up with 10 failures...

Let's kick off with Daisy
Lol the saints will be paying 20% of their salary cap to 2 players. I might get a gig on their list next year to save some cash
 
We should be looking at sides that have a good system and a surplus of types that would add something to our list...

This generally works the opposite way to what you’re suggesting.

An average player usually looks better in a good system - when they enter a new system they get found out.

There are countless examples of this. Just look at the lemons Geelong have sold to other clubs over the years, as a starting point.
 
Saints are splashing out arent they. Cause its ok for them to splash out but Carlton need to shed players.

Wish we could steel Aleer from them.

At the reported 800-900k a year? No thanks. He looks great when he can get a clean jump at it but he actually doesn't defend that well.
Averages less than one contested a mark a game...

Someone on our board mentioned that you guys are interested in Buku Khamis should be a no fuss trade since both clubs have a good relationship with one another.
Yep, has been on here for a couple of weeks now. What do doggies fans think of Buku?

If you have a play book to never pick up a lemon... let's hear it...

Reality is, picking up 6 players, who are struggling to impact and mostly from struggling sides is not a sound strategy to drive a team forward...

Spot on. They needed KPD depth, some inside grunt and a bit of depth on their flanks that fit their profile of speedy runners.

We have no first round pick this year and people are acting like we need to go out and target stars. Quality role players who bring speed and skill are exactly what we should be targeting. If they're on the outer a bit and come cheap even better.
