Thanks for that. I have often thought Merrett was "tripping." Could there be a link?
Blotter paper perhaps?

Steady now Batman. Did the leaf symbol get shone against the city skyline?Did someone call for me!!!?!!???
I must admit watching his highlights helped get over the fast developing crisp leaving but plays like Gibson, Gunstan and Mundy.... How did he slip through? Great write up but sometimes I think these profiles makes everyone Pick1's. I would love to know more of what he needs to work on to become better as a player.
What he needs to work on is mentioned there?
Personally I hate the 'plays like' part because people are just trying to describe a player, put people see it as they will turn into that player.
But Lions no doubt got a bargain, you'll be rapt with him!
cheers! Apparently tigers were actually contemplating using pick 13 to bid on him! Dawson is a great bloke, and from a great family!Yeah I know. Sorry, not meaning to downplay the work gone into it. Appreciate the work mate and I do hope he goes and sees Rocky's boxing coach and finds a way to be what his potential is.

Is he still growing?What he needs to work on is mentioned there?

Appreciate the reply and the context.Agree! They are actually the players that he mentioned to myself in an earlier interview that he compares his style to. Dawson is actually 190cm now (quick update), and isn't expected to grow any more. He has always played taller due to his strength at overhead marking.
Appreciate the reply and the context.

I asked Cal Twmoey on twitter how many picks we are using. He said he thinks 1. I would hope we would use more.
Wouldn't we have to use a minimum of two live picks or do the academy kids count as live?
If we only take one pick I would assume that we will take more rookies.

Patrick Keane said on twitter that you can no longer upgrade rookiesOne draft pick and one rookie elevation I reckon.

I was thinking we'd take more rookies and upgrade one if needed like we did in 2012Presumably he meant at the draft. Can still just pass on the last pick and elevate later.

Haven't seen the tweet but I"m guessing he meant that upgraded rookies don't count towards your minimum draft picks you're required to take. You certainly can upgrade rookies.
