Hey folks - sorry am sure there’s a summary in one of the earlier pages. Do we have any NGAs this year considered draftable? Luke Quaynor? Tadgh McCarthy? Are they realistic chances? Anyone else?

Other than McGuane, anyone know of any potential father sons coming through? Eg Rocca family, Fraser, Holland, Ayce Buckley? Anyone know if any of these offspring are playing junior footy?

Don’t remind me…. But at least you beat the Hawks the next week much to my delight, and they would have rolled us, so thanks for the favour there. More referring to my suspicion that the Swans would prefer to play at the SCG than a ground they rarely play at. I’m personally freaking out about...

Thanks folks. Wouldn’t be optimistic in that scenario, but, a bit of water to go under the bridge before I even start worrying about that.

Pardon the intrusion folks, and likely an out of date view from a supporter of a team that seldom travels (our so I have been told). If somehow the Pies finish 4th and lose week 1, win week 2 and face Swans away in a prelim, it’s definitely played at the SCG? No chance of it being at ANZ or some...

Hey folks - did Harrison play? If not, any idea why? (Emergency for the seniors etc)? How did Murley go?

Sorry if mentioned previously - as a Pies fan I would not be disappointed with a low finish, possibly even a spoon (pride aside). McRae has a honeymoon period we can use to weather the storm (as long as we play youth), and it’s our blatant lack of KPP drafting that has me hoping we may finally...

I’m finding it hard to accept that we’ll lose De Goey for nothing, however, it must be the most likely outcome you’d think. Can’t see us standing him down or giving a prolonged suspension just so that he stays on the books til the October FA window to net us a compo pick, I reckon his contract...

I liked the look of Dib. Question - does anyone know if it is a top 20 bid or first round bid that precludes us from access to him? IE if due to other bids and possible FA compo meaning round 1 may extend to say 23 selections, as long it is past pick 20, we could match? (Assuming we have the...

So will he coach our VFL team or will that be Selwood? Or someone else?

Is Mihocek likely to stay on rookie list or be promoted? (Assuming he elects to stay a Pie). Also, does anyone know what happens if a bid comes for Atu B after the picks with points have expired? I think it’s only until pick 72 that points are allocated, so if someone bids at say pick 80 - can...

Yeah so on this - if our pick 57 FA compo supposedly does not include any points to use towards academy picks (bizarre rule) - why wouldn’t we trade this for say pick 58 as it would then carry points for us to use? Would the AFL integrity peeps have an issue with that?

Does anyone have any insight into our academy or FS prospects for 2019 and beyond? Nick Daicos in a few years is one that has been spoken of at length, but are there any others in that 15-16 age bracket that people are aware of that we should be tracking?

Be great if that’s the case - how many more delistings do we need in order to enable this? So far only Keeffe and White off senior list, and Murray, Cox, Thomas on to senior list?

How handy would it be if this kid can play - Brander/Naughton/Fogarty, Moore, McLarty and Kelly and all of a sudden our pitiful KPP stocks aren’t so pitiful. Oh yeah, and some guy called T Lynch as well.

Any thoughts who may be around at pick 36 for the Pies that you like?

Like most, I'd love to see him up the ground - I reckon he'd be good for a long goal outside attaching 50 most weeks, and, hopefully not freaking me out any time he gets the ball in our back 50....

The sad thing for me is that I'm rarely surprised these days by what we serve up.... Even when we got out to 50 I knew game wasn't over, and when we blew it at the end I was not shocked. It's almost as if mediocrity has become the norm, as I don't even find myself getting that upset about...

Yes agree, preference is obviously to develop quality through the draft - if I think about it our 2010 team came to be when our top 10 picks took their chances and outgrew the incumbents as you say. Perhaps I'm looking at a bridging solution as Goldy/Dunn have 1-2 left each, McClarty may not be...

Are there any young/underrated KPDs not getting a game that could be gotten on the cheap? Obviously hard to pry away decent KPFs, but a solid defender can sometimes slip through. Allir Allir has been mentioned, any others that come to mind for those who watch state leagues closely?

Hey KM, If there is no truly compelling KPF/KPD option for the Pies at 6, would there be consideration to:- 1. Trade down for 2 later picks such as Richmond 16 & 17 (we may need to chuck in something else). This may get us a Naughton and another decent flanker instead of just the one player...
