[PaythePerryman]

If somehow Travaglia slides to us he would not only fit in by filling a need, but already knows what it's like to be screwed over by umpires.

Yeah that's the dream but can't see him making it to us. I think we'd have to trade up to target him.

 

[Mors]

I feel like we are really well placed to pick up a whole range of great players that may slide. I think trading up would be a waste in this draft particularly

So it's suggesting that a bid for Smith might come just before our pick 37.

So trade 37 into next year

Both Whitlocks are around our selections 16/21
If we can pick up a nice mid with 15 potentially we could go the brother combo?
Not sure if we need more height just year but could set us up for life after Hogan.

We've lost 5 medium-sized players and 2 talls (but gained one back) during the trade period. We will presumably grab Logan Smith, so for me grabbing both Whitlocks would be ignoring our needs in the medium/midfield ranks.

Had it been 2 years ago, I probably would have said yes to grabbing the twins rather than taking Gru (probably could have done them at the Gruszewski & McMullin picks) although I would not have said both positions were must-fill.

Personally, we could go 1 tall (other than Smith). If you judge Keeffe as a forward, I'd take a KPD to develop (especially with the risk of losing Leek Aleer and Wade Derksen next year). If you judge Keeffe as a KPD, then there would be a forward spot ... although less of a need in my opinion.

(The problem with talls is if they are all fit, it's hard to fit them into the AFL and VFL sides. But if we lose some to injury, they're worth their weight in gold.)

Yeah injury or trade.
Keefe surely doesn't go around after next year. And I'm slightly worried about Leek being tempted by a godfather offer. We also know Derksen has interest from melb.
All of a sudden we could be stretched.
While I feel like with Fonti, Leake, Rowston, Gothard and Jones we are pretty covered for pace and zip.
I reckon it's not a terrible move if a player like Lindsay at 15.
