irrespective of where we finish, our drafting targets will be very interesting.
a lot of it will revolve around laycock and bellchambers and whether they show much (especially laycock) in the last 14 rounds.
We need a gun midfielder with topnotch disposal. We need another key defensive prospect to accompany Pears (and perhaps Daniher), and we most likely either need another ruckman or make the decision to move ryder into the ruck, which really exposes the key defensive prospects.
so, using everyones top three opinions, Natanui solves the ruck, Rich solves the mid, but Hurley, in a way, solves both the defender AND the ruck by freeing up Ryder down the track. Purely from a structural viewpoint, Hurley perhaps offers more value - it's kinda like having two picks - and has a slight attraction in that he is a victorian. We've taken WA kids for the last three years, and will always be a little susceptible to the risk of the go-home factor.
Further into the draft, we could really use a good quality smaller defender and a goal kicking half forward.
