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.

Any chances we take Dodson at 29 or 36?
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
Everytime that name is mentioned.....Any chances we take Dodson at 29 or 36?
We give Hinkley and Cornes and get 7, 26 and 54 backSeriously how in the hell do we trade up?
I just mathematically can’t see it.
As long as we don’t have to throw in a future Carr.We give Hinkley and Cornes and get 7, 26 and 54 back
Why would a 2nd rounder get it done so easily? (I assume along with 13 you mean)Why are people carrying on like trading up from 13 to 10 is going to cost us an arm, leg, kidney, and jhf’s future son?
I would’ve thought a second rounder would get that done easily.

If it was that easy we would've done it ages ago. There'll be better offers presented to Richmond than 13+29
Richmond have 8 picks inside 24. Our pick 29 might as well be pick 100, it’s completely worthless to them.Of course 13 is involved. That is why I said moving 13 to 10. It’s only 3 spots, and Richmond might be confident they get who they want anyway by moving 3 spots back and get second rounder on top.
We moved from 14 to 12 with a future second in 2021 when we got Sinn and many thought that was overs at the time.
Not sure why all of a sudden it’s insurmountable.
