I see him as our Sidey replacement. I understand Sidey will be almost impossible to replace, and I don't necessarily think Hayes will be as good as Sidey, but he is a great pick imo.

Ok, I have done a little bit of research on Cochran from the few swans supporters I know, living in sydney as i do. Just realise that this is a player they just lost, so they are not going to be too positive on him. Possibly take with a grain of salt. Strengths: Superb athlete. Weaknesses...

I get Richmond don't bid on ashcroft at 1, but seriously the next 3 teams not bidding?

I personally think Sid draper will be best player out of this draft. Obviously Adelaide got him.

I was born in nsw in 1976, so a bit young, lol, but what happened in 1977? Draw? I love our history so much.

Only so much you can burn other clubs, before it comes back to bite you.

Geelong aren't clickbait like we are. Unfortunately the media is not about quality journalism anymore. It is about clicks, comments etc. and everyone knows pies dominate in that space.

I enjoy seeing young players come through the system, but I also like to be competitive every season. It is why I wouldn't like pies to go full rebuild.

If that is true, him nominating us might help the trade being pushed through. Port and North may not want a player that has openly stated his preference is us. However he is a professional and still getting paid. I think we are still slight favourites with Port 2nd and North 3rd. Say 45% us, 35%...

Yep, I am almost certain Houston will still be a pies player. Port just trying to milk it for all they can

You tell us as you seem to know something? I assure he is looking the same as he always looks.

80% he goes to pies. 15% he stays with port. Roos 4% and somehow Carlton may still be 1%

Your offer for Rioli is the issue. No wonders other clubs continue to bend you over.

Stay positive Dave. There just needs to be tweaking to the deal.

Gold Coast will make sure this deal doesn't fall over imo.

I think noble and Richards are adequate players, our future first may be swallowed up with mcguane and 36 is a punt. Houston is the absolute real deal, and really suits us well. Only bigger need for us may have been a KPD, but we may get Tomlinson as depth. We will see how we look after the end...

The best thing about getting Houston, as it appears we will, is we are not only getting stronger as a team, we are also weakening a few key competitor's and pretty much pissing off every collingwood hater within the media and the rest of society. It doesn't get much better.

Disappear where? Maybe we lose Sidey, Pendles, Elliott, Michell, Howe and Cox over next 2 seasons. I may have missed someone but I believe our list is not completely falling off a cliff with some smart acquisitions like Houston, Perryman and even Schultz (I know...). Key position depth is a...

I will wait until it is officially confirmed, but Houston is by far the best acquisition we could have got this trade period. I am not overly concerned about early draft picks. You can build a list with free agents, trades for decent players, plus late draft picks, with the occasional father...

Nah I did angry face. Has it been changed?

Good for you.

Almost like they did it to spite the Eagles.

Not sure your point, but noble didn't play in our premiership.

Time will tell if you are right. He did take the role on at late notice, but if he gets Dan, he has it for as long as he wants it.

It didn't make sense to me either, but maybe there is more to it, as in hawks may not rate this draft and need picks for next year. Who knows why they did it.

Nah, we generally don't let our premiership players go. You guys do things differently

I like it. All comes down to what port want for Houston

The future is hard to predict imo. The present is a lot easier. Houston is the present, aka the gift 😉

Not cool mate
