List Mgmt. Pick 9

[Mezzoculo]

True getting Martin for nothing certainty helps. Gives another opportunity to get a young gun.

And Newnes. Reckon he'd be a good get.

Because we had the explicit primary aim of using this pick to land an established top end player to complement our talented but young list. Would like to see us load up on 2020 currency to maximise the chance of this happening next year.

One more year to get another young elite kid through the draft. Then you'll see all the other players nominate to come to us. We're getting really close to getting an elite young team.

Really have to watch some footage over the next few weeks. Literally have no idea.

Yeah, it’s been reported that they are looking at trading pick 6 and future first for pick 3 from Melbourne to avoid this scenario.

Let’s hope they don’t achieve this then. Save us dropping to 10th pick.

We're not getting Green whichever way you cut it, so whether our pick is #9 or #10 makes absolutely no difference.

 

[Stamos]

For those wanting to trade #9 out for a future first, forget it. We would have just taken Gold Coast's offer of 2020 #11 if we wanted to do that. We may trade down slightly, but I cannot see us trading out of the first round.

Well no, we won’t get Green but we don’t slide down a spot either.

Weightman, but not at 9 @14-19 after switching out 9 for 2 picks.

Small forwards tend to go lower in the draft than mids and kpp.

We domt need a wingman what so ever. Obrien fisher cuningham amd martin will play thr wing... we shoulf actually draft a half back flanker because stocker playing middle pmakes more sense when simpson goes i think murph wont be far off

It will be very interesting to see what we do with this pick:

- Keep it;
- Split it; or
- Engineer a trade, effectively doing a reverse-Adelaide

If we do keep it, we must go with best available talent, as long as that talent is under 190cm.

What about Kemp 193cm big bodied midfielder that can also play forward?

Not seen any either as had no interest until realised we still had an earlish pick, we did not expect to still have.

From little I heard from Shifter Sheahan it sounds like Kemp, Serong , Healy or Cody Weightman should be types we consider for pick we have.
Weightman probably expected to be pick more in teens but sounds like specialist smallish forward so if he the best of those types when pick 9 is there, taking him, not a bad idea given we now missed the small forward we wanted that ready made.

Brodie Kemp for me. The kid is the definition of utility. Can play all over the ground and has a great turn of foot. Is seen as a big-upside pick who probably falls to us because of the ACL. Worth a risk/reward type selection.

Always love reading through these articles leading into the draft:

What about Kemp 193cm big bodied midfielder that can also play forward?

If he there at pick 9 we probably have to take him because if he was not injured he a top three pick normally.
But we will have to wait until 2021 for him to really play with his injury. but he meant to be elite so you probably have to do it.

Already have setterfield its point less and walsh isnt short will be too slow of a midfield pace pace pace

I’m a little baffled by all of this talk about moving pick 9 to trade into the first round of 2020.

Everything I’m reading and hearing from the experts advises that next years draft is heavily compromised (18/ top 40 kids have academy ties).

So given this:

1. What would be the appeal for us to have 2 first round picks in this draft?

2. Wouldn’t the above lower the value of our 2 first round pick offer if we were to move it on to other clubs for a star (i.e Wines etc)?

Thats litterally will setterfield all over again

Ideally its serong but he wont slide that far

 

[Blues90]

Split pick 9.

Bring in a small fwd and a midfielder.

Most good small forapwarss you can get lateish anyway

1. Trade value

2. Well, it's not about value, it's about position. We position ourselves to be able to offer a lot to acquire said star. Remember Tim Kelly went for 2ish first rounders + upgrade in a fairly meh draft

Its unessesary. You can strade picks next year to move up the draft lol

I’d be happy with two of him.

This kid seems bigger. They compare him in his draft bio to Bont. Not sure on that, but he’s definitely a hybrid.
