With Jackson Macrae on the outter at the Dogs, anyone think he would be a good fit for our mids?

Hi all First draft of the year and very happy with it (rookie dependent). Adams may find his way out. Let me know what you think.

Wash your mouth out. Half the children in Adelaide born in the 90's are fathered by this man.

From NSW only though wasn't it? NSW Scholarship. We also had some kid who ran long distance really fast.

Fantastic commercial draw. If we make finals, we have absolutely effing earned it.

Stop making so much sense.

Would love this. Also happy to through in Melb F2 for 35 this year. 14, 20 and Melb f2 for 9 and 35.

I'd like to see them play more bursts through the midfield. Our midfield can be a bit one-paced and predictable. One of those two in at stoppage would be great. Also, neither are really "pressure" type small forwards who lay a lot of tackles.

Would love the nickname, but don't like the fit. If he was a genuine small forward more than a HF I'd be more intrigued.

I think its been worked out that we will have either North, GCS and GWS away

I think the issue is that players need genuine game time in the Ruck to develop whether that's in the 1s or 2s. We found when he had Hunter and Strachan in the 2s, unless they can play somewhere else, you're too top heavy. Especially with the likes of Himmelberg up forward too. I would love a...

I'm all for this trade (14, 20, Melb F2 for 9 and 31). Wilson and O'Sullivan would be a great haul. I see a Goad slipping to 31 or Delean/Moir being available as a risk/reward.

No to McKercher?

I know the physique isn't the same, but Schoenmaker is feeling a little bit like Will Gould to me.

I've only spoken twice to the family (and its not immediate family like the Carlton poster), but their initial preference was to stay in Vic as they're a pretty tight knit family. They seem to be warming to the idea more knowing its becoming a real possibility.

I spoke with another family member over the weekend, and he gave me the same opinion. Family is fully expecting him to be a Crow next year.

I don't really want the Pies or Powers haha. Try 14 and F2 for their F1. Probably won't be enough still, but I'd rather push that angle.

Would it be worth trying to trade 14 into a F1. Realistically, where would Welsh go? Be good to get a couple of picks in before his bid.

I think he will be a good foil up in Melbourne's forward line, provided that you play 2 KPF and Fritsch. He's inconsistent, but can win games. Has usually polled well in our B&F too. F2 sounds about right.

20, 23 and 26 is worth pick 3. 20 and 26 is worth pick 8. I be prepared to do 20 and 26, which would give GCS a 300+ point surplus from the trade.

So this Petty chat won't go away. So many on twitter screaming for us to throw the kitchen sink to get him, but I think we need to be realistic about how good he is and not over pay just for the sake of it. We've had two very good years recruiting dawson and rankine and have a strong draft...

A lot of flack around here for Tom. I wish him well, he played with heart, even if his body couldn't hold it together. He rolled the dice on staying healthy, and lost. That's the game. His departure will let Worrell stay in (and while I think it's a minor downgrade, the free'd up money is a...

Pretty sure James Jordan has committed to Sydney and is able to walk there. Tom Sparrow on the other hand...

If North get Pick 3, I can't imagine them spending 2 and 3 on midfielders given how stacked their midfield is already. It's just a misallocation of resources, especially with McKay leaving. One of the picks may be a mid but I'd be surprised if one wasnt a KPP.

Agree here. Also seems to be a clear top 8. I think we really need to go hell for leather at GC Pick 4 to get hands on McKercher (or Duursma, if we think he translates to a mid). Has Sanders been given to North as a concession yet?

Exactly the type of mid we don't need. Not quick, can't kick.

Bit of hearsay for you, but I'm friends with Darcy Wilson's cousin. (I know, I know :rolleyes:) Got the cousin to do a bit of digging for me. Out of the interstate clubs, its been us and WCE who have spoken to him most, with the majority of Vic Clubs. My mate indicated that Darcy is a bit...

This is what I'd normally do too. Just not sure if 2 wins out of 3 gets me into the finals. No benefit to holding trades if I don't make finals.

Only 3 trades left. Season is done in terms of Overall. In my cash league currently sitting 10th (8th-12th on equal points), so I've gotta win a couple of the next games to make finals. Do I roll the dice this weekend and go: Out: Dunkley Cameron In: Butters Taranto It will match two of...

I got trade happy early in the season and now I'm paying for it. 8 trades left before this week. Going to go Van Rooyen to Himmelberg (F6) Davey to Sinn as I need the cash Then next week Sicily to Oliver, Himmelberg going back, Dunkley going forward. Will leave me with: Def: Dawson...
