Only issue for me is we would have traded out our best half back for a teenage half back. Doesn’t sit well with me.Nothing wrong with a flanker.
I dunno but I could see this regime doing something of the sort…If Port had 2 and 11, would you want us to trade them for 14 & 15?
Yes.Any chances we take Dodson at 29 or 36?
I would highly doubt that…… all his friends and family live here and yes his father did play with St Kilda but that was a quarter of a century ago, Darryl is still involved in things at Alberton and the young bloke would have grown up knowing nothing but Port Adelaide.Apparently he's closer to nominating Saints than us atm. Obviously things can change in 12 months
Inside word is North have a massive hard on for Tauru, hence their keenness to trade down with Richmond.Im that hot on Draper i just dont see how that happens. But it could go:
Rich - Smith
NM - Lalor
Carl - FOS
Ade - Langford
Mel - Armstrong
Rich - Smilie
StK - Reid
StK - Allan
Mel - Tauru
PA - Draper
That isnt out of the realms of possibility i guess
I mean you can doubt it except for the fact that Darryl said it himself on radio hahaI would highly doubt that…… all his friends and family live here and yes his father did play with St Kilda but that was a quarter of a century ago, Darryl is still involved in things at Alberton and the young bloke would have grown up knowing nothing but Port Adelaide.
I hope we aren't moving up to grab Allan or Trainor and its actually to grab one of the names you mentioned for the other clubsInside word is North have a massive hard on for Tauru, hence their keenness to trade down with Richmond.
I reckon the Roos are gonna blink and take 6 + 18 for 2 where they will then get Tauru at 6. If not pick him at 2.
In no particular order the first six picks could be: Tauru, Smith, O’Sullivan, Lalor, Ashcroft, Langford & Draper where:
Tigers take FOS and Lalor.
Blues grab Draper.
Crows... Probably Smith. Langford? Smillie?
Dees are keen on Reid?
Roos take Tauru.
Saints grab Smilie and and maybe Reid at 8 & 9.
Leaving Bo Allen or Luke Trainor for a little later, hence the rumours we trade for pick 10 to trump the Eagles for Allen
Seriously how in the hell do we trade up?Inside word is North have a massive hard on for Tauru, hence their keenness to trade down with Richmond.

I can't see us trading up for this reason tooSeriously how in the hell do we trade up?
I just mathematically can’t see it.
Travaglia imo is quite underrated generally across the comp. Think Will Day. This kid has that about him. He'll start at HB sure which may annoy some here (and I totally understand why) but in long term, he can become a seriously good midfielder. There's huge upside with him so if we moved up to get him I wouldn't be upset.Travaglia seems like a realistic first pick.
Then I think we will be hoping for Dodson or Gerreyn, and best available with the others.
Don't think Dodson will last till 29
