We now have about 1000 points with those two picks. Hopefully someone comes knocking.
Maybe Port?

I’d like to see us take a pure small forward and a KPD, as well as leave a spot open for next year. We have promised to pick up Kennedy. We may also be looking at some ruck depth if TDK needs to play predominantly forward.
2 KPDs is overkill at this stage.
That was assessment of a horrible draft, halfway through the season by a guy who's a better writer than an eye for talent.Knightmare's AFL Draft Power Rankings: April
ESPN's AFL draft expert Christopher Doerre unveils his list of the 20 best prospects in his monthly power rankings.www.espn.com.au
This was Knightmares top 20 power rankings in April of 2017. Makes for some interesting reading.
This really is a draft where no-one really knows who may yet be the best of the crop. The more astute recruiters will pluck gold from bronze. Maybe us?
That's why a DFA tall swingman would be a clever selection
Then draft a KPD, a ruck/forward, a pure crumbing forward
Come the mid season draft, put Charlie on LTI list and take the best 19 year old that wasn't drafted

Brings a greater opportunity to nab a slider or provide a little better reach into the draft. All about getting a bit more reach. Wouldn’t surprise me if we reach a little further too.Strange pick swap, effectively similar points exchanging hands
No, but it gives us a greater opportunity to trade with someone who does need them.Points don't really apply to.us since we have no decent Academy prospects on the horizon so it's a good deal for us.
Suns don’t need points for academy kids with the concessions they got last year.Would have been nice to get Suns 27 instead.
Bei interesting to see who gets that, unlikely to be us now.
Is there anything our recruiters have done recently that suggests we're capable of picking out the diamonds from the coal?OK, that may be the case but I've also seen elsewhere where early on, Naughton was rated in the lat 30's and with Cerra and Coffield a long way away also.
The point should be pretty clear - We really don't have a handle on this draft and some will come out looking like geniuses. ....US?
At least we're now ahead of Freo who might be keen on Winder at 32Doubt we'd be trading now if we wanted a specific player at 31, wouldn't surprise me to see us bundle 31 and 38 up to get back into the late first round/early second on draft night if there's a player we really like there.
It’s a strange swap and must be targeting someone. Wouldn’t it have been better to do the future 3rd with GC for 37 which the swans did after our swap.
Then we would have had 37, 38 and 48 rather than 31, 38 and 78
Willo, Gibbo, TDK at 30.Is there anything our recruiters have done recently that suggests we're capable of picking out the diamonds from the coal?
We have potentially 4 list spots. Can see us using 3 in the draftWe will only take one or two kids at the most. 31+38 makes sense whether we use them as is or trade up.

We are only planning on using 2 picks so we got as high as we could, if we were planning on 3 we probably would have done that.It’s a strange swap and must be targeting someone. Wouldn’t it have been better to do the future 3rd with GC for 37 which the swans did after our swap.

We may still bundle 31 & 38 and target a late teen pick

Probably suggests going for best available rather than someone in particular.I'd say we must be targeting someone, but if so is there any need to do this now rather than on draft night?
The fact we don’t have any 1st round picks to worry about will certainly have them more focused on what’s available or likely to be at these picks, plus the fact we will probably be looking at specific types will also narrow the field, other than that I think Austin has a pretty good track record at Richmond but that’s assuming he was heavily involved with there later picks, and we all know what assuming leaves you with.Is there anything our recruiters have done recently that suggests we're capable of picking out the diamonds from the coal?
I like them all.Willo, Gibbo, TDK at 30.
