I think he meant that we talked with GC about 27 before they traded it to Geelong.

On Ugle, when reading it I just assumed that we would only take him if we could put him on the category b list. I'm not sure if we can do that with a bid after 41, or how that works really.

I agree that our remaining list spots will be:

1. Senior List - ND only pick
2. Senior or Rookie list - RD 1st pick
3. Senior or Rookie list - RD 2nd pick or SSP (maybe Cox)
4. Rookie list - vacant for SSP or mid-season draft
5. Cat B - Ugle or vacant
6. Cat B - vacant
I would be happy to pick Ugle up as a Cat B rookie. I have no idea if that is possible. If yes, then we take 1 ND, 2 Rookies and 1 Cat B (Ugle)
 
Half Correct she wanted media exposure rather than an actual career in the media and the lure of a bigger audience was just too tempting.
Woman is an habitual attention seeker, that genuinely thinks and believes, that all our lives are infinitely better for us knowing what sort of toilet paper she buys for her family, and whats the best fabric softener.

Constantly giving all who will listen tips on the latest decor trends for the modern home and who's the hottest dress designer in town.

Her greatest claim to fame is that she married someone who was famous and wealthy and therefore by association with the famous other half now seeks notoriety in her own right.

People like her piss me off as they contribute nothing to society other than manufactured self adulation.

Although I should't Juddge her so harshly..... its a bit mean spirited of me.

Oh by the way she speaks highly of me too. ;)

Some might even call her a (short lived) Fair Weather girl...

So we could take 3 picks in the draft then?

We must take one pick.

A second pickin the main draft is basically pick 1 in the rookie draft, so why not use a min of two picks? Especially if a player on your list is there to take.

Yes you save $80k in the cap and only offer a one year deal not two. Hell we might be pinching ourselves with what slides.
 
Saw him play in the WA all stars matches, had a very good 2nd game. Like his coach said in that piece, he is great in space. Silky mover, covers the ground easily and built like a pencil stick. Has pace/nice kick.

Areas to improve are finding ways to stay involved in the game more, can drift in and out. Tackling and pressure game has room for improvement.
And obviously getting stronger.

Yeah, he's low possession but high impact. He was very good in the 2nd game!

Knows how to get a handball receive to get into space and then take off. Nice kick too.
His possessions tend to make things happen, great project player. I think he'll likely be a Cat B.

I don't understand why we can't match until after 41? To be honest I wouldn't match for him before then anyway but weird ruling.

If someone bids on him under 40 then pass and let them have him.
I wouldn't spend anything other than a rookie pick on him.
 
So only 1 midfielder on our list who will be 22 or under at the end of 2021 and only 2 who will be 25 or under at the end of 2021. Between them they have played 17 games.

No idea why there are so many of us on the board unhappy with O'Brien come draft night!

I'm guessing we wont find a nobody at 62 and polish 'him up to be a B Grader (not even dreaming of an A Grader).

Don't worry, we'll just trade a heap of picks for one

Hope we have a couple of good cat b rookies lined up with the list size reduction.
Likely this to happen....

So...he’s replacing Frankie Watson pretty much then?

The 2 under 25 is incredibly damning given their exposed form. Reminds me of Hawthorn’s drop off in that area, and even they were able to snag Mitchell and O’Meara and draft Worpel cheaply.

I say this every year but it rarely seems to happen.

Think the club prefers to have more flexibility with the list normally and don't appear to be all that keen on getting in "early" on the rookie draft with a late pick.



All cost saving and predetermined i guess. Instead we miss out on the first 13 odd selections in the rookie draft.
 
Considering that we moved Hutchings to the rookie list to save money means things must be tight. Maybe there is little room for multiple draftees.

Are they doing this over 2 days and, if so, is our first pick tomorrow?

I just want to make some time in my schedule for googling a previously unheard of white bread half-back flanker that we've picked.

National draft (all rounds) is tomorrow arvo/evening.

Rookie draft Thursday day.
 
The Cats and Eagles are also understood to be keen on moving into the first-round of the draft, with the Tigers reportedly open to moving their first selection of the night at pick 17, Cherny reports.

If the cats want to pay up prior, let them do it I say. We can't really afford to blink and pay (relative) overs pre-draft.

Pick 17 could end up 21/22 on draft night. Plus the saints are looking to move up the order (so pick 21 will be on the table as part of it) - 21 could end up 27 or so - right in the zone for one of our future 2nds (but still a '1st rounder' for compliance purposes).

I guess the risk is a player that a team loves slides to their pick, but on the opposite hand we can wait to see if there is actually a player we want available at the pick we will get...
