Silvagni and the Blues are looking to gain an edge on their rivals as the AFL is certain to further reform the national draft in coming seasons, although it has yet to reach an agreement for this year's draft with the AFL Players Association as it remains in dispute with the players over their wage demands.The league's player movement group, which includes the AFL's Andrew Dillon and Ken Wood along with key club representatives Scott Clayton, Ameet Bains and Graham Wright, has progressed talks on the live trade picks prospect but could delay the introduction until next year......
