It's gonna be what like pick 14-17 with it sliding? Those are junk. Gets us a Laurie and a bowey or Tholstrup

Or Wilson and Reid. I wont be slitting my wrists if we did that deal but If we’re going to speculate on a guy in his mid 20s we might as well speculate on two 18 year olds.

Fair enough disagree, Humphrey is better than 90% of draftees taking in the last 3-4 years. The likelyhood of getting someone even as good as him after pick 10 is low

Tbh I’m more concerned about how much cash we’re willing to spend to get him.

I reckon Humphrey’s season is playing perfectly for us - he’s still stuck behind a bunch of elite, proven mids and his value is declining.

One of our first rounders instead of two might do it and I reckon he’ll blossom as a mid who can go forward rather than the reverse.

We're pretty flush with cash once we pay off all our contracts no? We could probably back end the shit out of his contract and still have coin to spare.

I guess, but that’s kinda how we got ourselves into this mess in the first place.

I see your point but we already had Oliver Track and Gus when we over paid, Oliver was never leaving until he was and Gus I thought we should have let walk for the cost

Humphreys younger, has the upside and doesn't present any off field risk. I get you'd rather spend the money on Butters but that level player ain't coming to us, we have to take a bit of a punt on upside

You campaigner

Would be an amazing outcome if it eventuated like that.

I think at best it's a first with a second attached somewhere or two of our first with some stuff coming back

Yeah reckon thats what it will end up being if it happens. Even a first this year and next with tassie draft wouldn't be horrendous.
