Freo trading themselves out of the draft - have to wonder if it's the correct decision instead of not going through a proper rebuild. Yes they could be good next year but mccarthy/hill/kersten/bennell all have massive question marks over them
He is, but unlike the other older players we've been looking at he provides a wealth of midfield experience that he obviously has a passion to pass on to our younger guys and he will give us some on field leadership that we've been seriously lacking. He's not going to drop his bundle in big games and I think the benefits of giving him a list spot far outweigh the negatives of him taking the spot of a younger guy. Plus he's not a spud like most of the other older guys we've been talking about.bit in your opinion isn't mitchell too old ?

Word is he will go to Port if they lose Lobbe or he is coming hereHas Vardy committed to Geelong or is he up for grabs?

Wow another good trade.Brissy get 3 & 16 for 2, 31, 51 and 60 from GWS
How do you propose we fit 4 kpd into the team then? Because if we can't then of course one of them will have to play in the WAFLThere is no reason those guys should be playing WAFL for large chunks, it will be up to them.
Yes it is a strong draft apparently but who really knows? At the end of the day they are all kids with unknown futures.
The draft is not important to every club every year, circumstances dictate to what path clubs take, look at the Hawks who have not cared about the draft for 4 years, there priority was winning premierships and trading in and out to achieve that.
If you forever rely on the draft you will never win a flag, you will always be waiting on hopefuls. If our club feels it is in a window now and adding a 34 year old Mitchell might help up get closer or to the flag then well done I reckon. Like others have said don't sell the farm but it does not seem we will have to.
Could we trade out a player or two for some picks? Yes of course we could but that seems something our club rarely does.
Brisbane now have 3 16 19 21.
We should try and go after one of those.
Also...Koby off to 3rd club St Kilda. Looks like we were right to ship him off.

Yes, but pick 7 is no where near pick 3 even in an even draft. And yes they got hill, but pick 23 is just about exactly where I'd want to have another pick in the draftThey still have a top ten draft pick.
