We should trade Stanton to GWS for pick one and draft Boyd.

 

[Ashton Agar]

They've got 5 second rounders, I think they'll take at least another kpp, merrett, goose and Brown are getting on

I would have thought that Dumont/Dunstan/Crouch would go to Brisbane first, with them assuming they wouldn't slide past us and then get another KPP if they feel they require one.

A month too late.

 

[Ashton Agar]

I want Crouch personally. Dumont and Dunstan would be beautiful too.

The other one I wouldn't mind is Billy Hartung, but I can't see him sliding past St Kilda at picks 18 and 19

 

[BOMBERS 4 LIFE!!!!]

Going to give me the shits seeing Garlett playing for the Hawks when we have the best chance to get him.

Will be another Cyril moment.

Edit - Make him live with NLM.

I'm the opposite. Hope he goes to that club, get him as far away from Essendon. He's exactly what we don't need publicity wise

That why he stays with NLM.

He is some kind of guru though. Surely that counts for something.

NLM retires from AFL to pursue career in babysitting.

I'm of the opinion that we will draft Garlett at pick 26, Every club that's interested in him has to give false confidence to Hawthorn so they take a risk and use pick 19 on another player leaving him available to us.

Zach Merrett would do nicely too

Thought I heard on the rumour mill that NLM was playing VFL for the Tigers stand alone side next year.

Think the trigger will be pulled if Jackson Merrett is there at 26. A good kick is worth their weight in gold.

Watching more vision of Aish - Reminds me of Bryce Gibbs - Nice player but not elite.

 

[LukeParkerno1]

Still feel that is way too much of a gamble on Apeness and mids are available!

i'm inclined to agree, personally id rather us take a decent mid but i wouldn't be upset if we took him, as long as it doesn't burn us in 4 years time

 

[Old Campaigner]

I kind of agree, he seems like he's been a bit over rated by virtue of being one of maybe 3 half decent big men other than Boyd.

I would have no problem taking him if he was worth it- but you don't take a tall for the sake of it...and next year's draft is a KPP draft!

Yeah, the pressing need is for a ready to play forward/ruck who can come in if Ryder/TBC/JD/Hurley/Carlise get injured. Apeness doesn't really fulfill that requirement. The back up doesn't even need to be that good, just someone who can act as depth for a few years until whoever we do get (maybe Conlon as a rookie, Nankervis at 55, or Apeness with 26) does come good. But if Dodoro does rate Apeness at 26 then I'm happy to go with it, that man has had a pretty good eye for talent of late.

Yep, still would rather if we are going with a sort of 3rd tall to take Marsh and to be honest I have severe questions on him. I would rather take a midfielder though. Don't like reaching for players they almost never work out!
