Finals or Sam Durdin?

[Cleric]

What would you prefer, a short finals series from 8th or be able to get Durdin in the draft?

 

[Elite Crow]

Best young player, screw the finals for our undeserving players

 

[Mike Smyth]

I would prefer we make the finals and then draft Brodie Martins brother.

 

[alex_is_on_fire]

Oh shit - it doesn't really matter as we will only draft some 35 year old anyway.

 

[Hank93]

Surely we already have a thread on this?

[I Lost My Keays]

who said were getting Durdin?

 

[craig crowing]

Anytime someone starts a thread there is always someone saying isn't this covered in another thread .
If think thread not necessary then don't read or post and it won't survive.

 

[Bailey01]

Nah Lever, Laverde, Ahern or Weller would do it for me. Durdin would be too much of a risk and reeks of James Sellar.

 

[Golumless]

Doesn't Durdin have a lot of question marks about him?

I'm more interested in an outside player first pick anyway... 2nd KPF can come from a mid pick.

 

[WAG]

Tigers up by 33 in the first quarter. COLA hasn't scored yet.

His Brothers name is Aaron works in the mines up North I think did time in the middle east with him very handy footballer back then, bit stockier than brodie. Represented the ADF i think

 

[xchadders]

a couple of spots different in the draft won't make much difference really. play every game to win.

 

[SloaneysDanger]

Finals so we can beat Port.

 

[Vooligan]

Pick 7, pick 7, pick 7!!!

 

[cmndstab]

It's not really a choice between "awesome player x" or "finals and mediocre scrub y". Whether we make the finals or not is likely to make maybe two spots difference in the draft.

True. But 2 spots is the difference between:
Talia and Christian Howard or Brodie Smith and Ben Jacobs

Big differences there

Not necessarily - that could easily be the difference between two recruiting teams. Most people expected Talia to go pick 10 rather than lasting to our pick 12. Carlton went for a mid instead. If we'd had pick 10, chances are we'd still have taken Talia.

you can also flip it the other way too, though.
player x is a dud at pick 7
player y play 250 games from pick 15

You can? What does that have to do with the real difference in 2 spots within our 2 most successful recent draft picks?

No one expected us to take Talia. Who knows what would have happened.
Lucas was one of the players linked to us

just saying you can pick a stud or a spud within 2 picks. meh. i don't care. i don't want us to deliberately lose a game to try and get a spot or 2 or 3 higher in the draft though.

If West Coast finish below us they will take Pickett. If we finish below West Coast we will take Pickett. So the WC v GCS game could be called the Pickett Cup....

These would be my top 4 at our pick too (I'd swap Laverde for Weller).

I don't reckon we'll pick Pickett.

Unless you're saying the picks have the same value this is meaningless
