Why? We use 31 on Yeo and keep 11 and 28 to use? We stay in the first 2 rounds that way, which I presume is the end game. ;)
Yes, but by 11 sheed or whoever it is we were targetting with 6 may be gone or we may miss out on a top talent who slides. if we stop kow-towing to other clubs we can just be firm and say to brisbane they either take our 3rd rounder or risk losing Yeo to the PSD. It all seems a bit risky to give away a top ten draft pick when we dont just need another midfielder, we need a top line, talented midfielder with class to replace Kerr, and we are more likely to find that inside the top ten than out of it imo.

If Aish is available at 6, i'd rather Aish, Yeo and pick 44 (ish) to Sheed (if he's available at 11), Yeo and Pick 28. Too much risk in moving from 6 to 11 for mine.

Yeah, or play hardball with Brisbane for Yeo. Pick 44 and our third round compo pick for next year maybe?
It depends when Freo deal for Gumby, if they give up their 2nd rounder then we only need to give up our 3rd rounder, providing Yeo isn't asking us to play fair with his old club for a trade.

Yep. This is why our list falls off the table talent wise, after our first 22.

Idiots in charge of our recruiting

You obviously didnt see the Dockers game against the Saints, they are a complete disaster after their best 22. At least we played ours this year and they were ok.

Yeah clubs usually try to trade into a Top 10 pick and we (reportedly at this stage yes) might be looking at trading out of the Top 10, all because of Yeo. Hhhhmmm, I hope the club know what they are doing. Too risky for mine as well doing the trade.

Lets hope if they do go down this path and do the trade that Yeo can bridge the gap between the guy at 6 and the guy at 11. Lets hope.

Has anyone else noticed the WCE website is using a clear photoshop off of one of the FB pages as Ellis' player profile?

Trading pick 6 to accommodate Brisbane is ridiculous. I understand we will be trading with them in the future, but we also need to protect our position.

The bottom line is Yeo is uncontracted and we can pick him up in the PSD if Brisbane don't want pick 44 for him.

Brisbane just sacked a favourite son and triple premiership captain as coach because it's business and they did what they thought was best by their club. They are unlikely to stop trading with us in the future because we did what was right by our club instead of bending over backwards and losing a top 10 pick to get them something more fair at our overall expense.
