Just some casual observations from the last 10+ pages and a refreshed rumour.
Mitchell is a decent player, but he ain't worth 700 bills to the CFC. Unless his figure comes down considerably, pass.
Some people want everything for nothing. #5 pick has yet to play a game. He could be anything, like the GWS players touted to be included in a trade where meant to be. In our current predicament I'd rather take multiple players with perceived upside struggling to break into a strong lineup than one maybe. Have a look at the #1's over the last 10-15 years. Nothing is a given. Quantity over unproven quality every time in our current position. If GWS want #5 for Marchbank, a position of need, plus others in positions of need, well hell yeah. The Jaksch/Whiley/late first trade was a good trade at the time and still may be. One GAJ hasn't been able to drag a solid list up the ladder. We need to bake the cake before we add the cream IMHO.
Still hearing that a certain ex #1 pick KPF may end up in Navy Blue. More will develop post finals.
