[eDPS]

OK, we're nearly ready for the new version right?

Pick swaps close 8th of November and reopen during the draft. I think starting on that night or the 9th works best for a more finalised draft order

Is anyone expecting pick swaps between now and the draft?

 

[Giant Strides]

Is anyone expecting pick swaps between now and the draft?

Yes, I reckon there will be a couple.

 

[Futbolista]

Yes, I reckon there will be a couple.

Fair enough...we'll give it more time.....I'm looking forward to it though because there isn't much more information to assess. This is it now.

You're like a kid in the lead up to Christmas ... you want your presents to open up and play with!

Haha...yeah a bit and the best thing is, one never knows what the presents will be. Hopefully 7 or 8 WA players into the main or rookie.

Given that Port recruited 2 small forwards last year, traded in another small forward already in Trade Period this year, have access to a very promising NGA Small Forward in the draft, and have another 2 small forwards on their list as well, I seriously doubt that Port will pick yet another 2 small forwards with their first 2 picks in the draft……
Given that Travis Boak will surely retire in 2026, 2 KP players have retired this year and Port traded out a medium running defender in the Trade Period, I would seriously contend that these types will be the more the focus of their requirements.

This was done before the trade period and those two players can play in the midfield. Who would you suggest Port pick instead?
