Nah, if you understood how close he was to leaving last time - you’d also probably agree it’s not going to be so straightforward this time.

It sounds like Mason Wood and his partner did the club a real solid taking NWM under their wings.

He would be a huge loss, but we have other HBF coming through but none of NWM's class.

Apparently if Draper makes it past Adelaide he lands with us at 7

I’d be highly surprised if he makes it past north at 2(3)

 

[Dr Spaceman]

My info is that he’s as happy as a pig in shit. No need for concern.

 

[St Kilda Death]

And yet you want to slide down to 4 for Tauru

 

[St Neil]

Carlton would take Draper at #3

Then where does Smith get drafted if Melbourne and Richmond are taking Langford and Smilie? (assuming North draft Tauru)

Jagga Melbourne.

Langford us

 

[St Neil]

Jagga Melbourne.

Langford us

I think Langford is the best of the bunch.

Will be an incredible player.

I am thinking Langford is coming our way.
Probably the least desirable option IMO
I am a pass on him ,but knowing it will come back and bite me big time
With all selections in our range, the chemistry of the 2 selected not necessarily the gifts of one

 

[mighty_sainters]

In before, “If we draft Travalgia, NAS is leaving”.

 

[Joffaboy]

Not draft but we play GWS on the Norwood cake tin 13th April (Sunday).
Any money we get a Thursday night game after it.
I hate this gather round garbage.

“Saints are having further player interviews and home visits with a number of 10-20 range - Xavier Lindsay another they like”

“Richmond have another home visit with Smillie planned”

“Essendon trying really hard to trade back in”

“Saints are getting a lot of offers for 8”

Like this.

I'm guessing the talk out of Melbourne camp is out of Langford and Jagga?

 

[Moorabbin Ghost]

Really? Was he actually that close to leaving? What would we even do without Nas.......

First season went back to Adelaide in the bye round and told people at the club he wasn’t coming back. Thankfully got talked around.
He’s a lot more settled now but imo it’s a matter of when, not if, he goes back to play in SA.

 

[Leap of Faith]

Including 1 top 10 pick minimum

2

This would be an absurdly good outcome. Adelaide still trading with Norf?

AA quality I reckon. Would be a big loss. Smooth as silk, quick, tough, skilful.

 

[Joffaboy]

If Richmond are keen on a player they think Melbourne might grab, they will have to cough up 11 and 18 or 10 and 20.

Has to be worth our while.

Wasn’t mentioned mate.

They spoke of a few whispers.

They spoke of how highly rated this draft class is.

Odd snippets on certain kids

Small talk around 2025 Free Agency and then they finished up and some ex cricketers got on stage

Specifically no.

But piecing it together, it’s what makes sense right?

So Jagga goes p3 or p5
Langford goes p4,p5 or p7

Draper doesn’t seem to be in the discussion of Melbourne and Richmond.

So would be correct if he makes it past Adelaide he ends up with us at p7

The panel think it wouldn’t be a surprise if Richmond go early on players from p10 or 11.

Whitlock mentioned.

Difference being an 18yo kid fresh out of school and mums house,
Now being established for 4 years in melb with plenty of mates you would think there would be less pull to go back to SA
Unless he really hates the big city?

 

[austinnn]

Why would Draper make it past Adelaide though?

 

[_Maximus_12]

Why would Draper make it past Adelaide though?

Because the was FOS

 

[St Kilda Death]

Rumours they trade up to 2 target FOS
