Makes sense. 4 live selections + Cochran would leave us with either a main or rookie slot left after Francis and Hamling are re rookied
Certainly makes me more enthused.

At least 4 x 18 year olds, with potential for maybe 2 new mature agers to help out / provide competition in the short term, and 5 of that 6 before the rookie draft.
 
Did the classic dumb draft prospect mistake when evaluating a non-white player: the comparison player is also non-white.

Leo Lombard = Touk Miller
Isaac Kako = Izak Rankine

Are we to really believe Touk Miller is really the best comparison for Lombard across the entire league? Or could it be that they just happen to look more like each other so therefore it feels like they play similarly? I don't know myself, but it seems lazy to me.
It's Waterworth

I'm just happy its going to be national draft selections rather than rookies tbh. I would like 3 18 year olds Cochran plus a more experienced player to come in whether that be a 21-22 year old or 25-26 i don't care but someone that can impact from day 1

Good moves with Francis and Hamling. If someone swoops in on one of them, I wouldn't be distraught.

No idea how Kirk stays on the list, outside of nepotism.

Maybe we're going to take 1 or 2 that would otherwise get to the rookie draft, late in the ND so we don't miss out. Get in before teams with earlier rookie picks (everyone but Lions), but are tighter on senior list spots.

Mature age mid ahoy!
Rookie list needs to go back to that !

Just going all in, a welcome change to our draft and list management strategy
 
Hate to be that guy but its probably a better outcome for next year to grab Brew or another mature age than rookie list Harrison and take the chance that someone wants Francis or Hamling

We need to rookie list one of them have zero ready made coverage otherwise

Atleast it makes it more interesting than 19 + 22 + Cochran

We were always taking 3 before Cochran just hopefully this means 4 then him

How in the blue moon does Kirk stay on our list?
 
Kid received another rookie spot. They tend to be project players, why wouldn't you give him a second year if you believe he has improvement?

He has improvement? Could easily take another tall
 
Reckon it'll be 3, then Cochran bid, then another live pick. Then 1 rookie.

But if our 4th comes in to early/mid 50s maybe. Just think clubs will make us pay something.

Won’t surprise me to try and downgrade our second first to get two seconds take 4 picks before Cochran
 
I think Joel will likely play on a wing in the VFL to begin with while Edwards and Snell are given priority alongside Francis. He'll get some time down back intercepting, especially when Francis isn't available while travelling elsewhere as an emergency.

If we draft a KPF, Buller stays fit, or we move to 2 x KPFs in seniors, then Hamling may need to play in defence too.
Three talls in defence is fine. Edwards, Snell and Hamling with Cochran on the wing or HBF if needed. Francis and Buller forward would be fine (swap Francis/Hamling if preferred) with the newbie as third tall. Sounds OK to me. Francis or Ladhams will spend time as an emergency. Green/Ladhams ruck/spare forward.
