Will happily miss out on Sloane. Missed basically the whole year with a foot injury... pass

Spot on. Would hope that Roberton resumes, but can't depend on it.
We would have a great spine.

If we snag one of the top midfielders in this draft and Gresh, Coffield and Clarke develop it would put us in the frame.


Nee!

History repeats.

How can any logical person believe anything that is reported on Ch7?

How many times are people going to fall for this?

Same old same old.

we need bailey smith and izzy rankine! (don't see what all the fuss is about over walsh???)

spend (if we must) any muppet-ridiculous money on the likes of a kelly or sheil or dal santo cousin.

picture it................................

to our current side, add one (hell, why not, make that 2) of those 3, plus smith and rankine, then add freeman, long, 2nd year coffield, phillips, and acres..........

we're looking deadly! :twisted:

since we're trading out hickey plus lazar's man to get that rankine pick (and expecting change back - billy's presence is worth it i've read), then,

depending on how much more time marshall and pierce need,

we possibly will also need a stop gap ruckman to replace billy's (just a) presence out on the ground.

(lazar should be hired by the club to advise on whom should we target. actually, just a thought. lazar, how's your knee these days mate...........? :) )
Your font is f***ed!!!!!
I agree, your font is f***ed

Don't need both, especially if have to give away first rounder. We need SILK , we have none. Pick 3 , or 4 will be SILK.
WC McGovern free agent so go hell for leather but don't trade for the Adelaide one who IMO still has a way to go before you would talk about him in the same sentence as Rance, Carlisle, McGovern (WC), even Tarrant.

Jermemy McGovern may have that condition of getting his brother too.

depends where we finish obviously
but if this condition was the case ... the following options
Option 1
Rankine or Smith

Option 2
Next years Second Round for M.McGovern
Rankine or Smith

Option 3
Swap 1sts for M.McGovern
Collier Dawkins

would they take 2nd round?? probably not
personally Id love option 3 GO AND HAVE A LOOK AT COLLIER DAWKINS. kid is a gun. underated due to late bloomer. HIS picking up and control of the ball is winmar good.
