Maybe North should look at players with a WA link now. Try to use the selling of games to their advantage.
It will be interesting in three years.. who has the better group Nort or tigs….

It gets a bit boring as its an annual constant and I cant see it changing. The four icy pole clubs will soon be joined by Tas.
12 months can change it a bit . Lets hope our Acad kid grows to top prospect to get our lick
Weirdest pick of night 1 has to be GWS. P24. for Angrove.
Surely if the trade the pick P24 and still get him later.. What would Geelong have given for that pick… and id be surprised if he was not there in the 40’s

To me that reads like we ain't trading up... But could be all coy
I doubt the media dept would be receiving communication from Mackie about their intentions.
Yeah, but I thought Mackie or Wells was on the record in some news not so long ago that we "might" trade up... but I guess the key word was "might"... although I could be wrong there, can't remember exactly when/where that was.
Just seem a little weird….to draft a guy who was not on the radar that early in a highly reguarded draft

Carlton traded pick 12 and pick 14 for pick 3 during the trade period
North could jump up a bit next season but the only teams I would be confident they finish ahead of would be Richmond and West Coast
Therefore I would value their future 1st at pick 3
In comparison to what Carlton gave up for the same pick they got pick 27 and Richmond's future 2nd rounder which will be at about pick 25
Unless Whitlock is Wayne Carey incarnate they have been robbed blind
Can't spin it any other way
Well apparently the Ess offer has been turned down so I assume we are in the mix..

Gonna cost all our future father/sons if last night was anything to go by.
Or even one “hit” from the draft is enough for me. One from the draft, one from a trade (Smith?), one of the youngsters breaking out (Clark?) gives us 3 new players which is enough to keep us ticking over. Last year we had Mannagh, Humphries, Dempsey. Anything more (Martin, Conway, Knevitt, O’Sullivan, Mullin, ???) is a bonus.
They can have the last bits of Jed Bews...
Nothing more hot n heavy that seeing draft pick 70 and 80 flashing up.
That seems to be the point with this draft. Incredibly even throughout and mixed opinions everywhere.
It’s a good draft, but not an elite draft.. it’s value lies in its depth

Outside of our current best 23 I think Conway, Clark, Knevitt and Clohesy all need AFL games to continue their development. If O'Sullivan has a big pre season you can add him to that list. We shouldn't be desperate for the instant gratification of trading up this year. It will be a grim year next year if we trade the FF to Richmond then don't make finals.

North got a strong future 2nd back. I'm not sure what GWS could've offered back the other way while still getting the player they wanted.
That’s not good… unfortunately I think we are about to throw away a first for our 3rd development ruck. Wgat a waste of drafting Edwards
Just don't draft another ruck
Yeah I'd go for a "project player" over a ruck who will languish in the 2s for years
36 maybe
