Good signing for your mob, was one I wanted for our glaring hole.
Hopefully we have another player identified for that second key defender spot in addition to Haynes.

I started making a list of 1st round picks from last years draft, to show that the majority of first round picks will have little to no impact on us achieving success.
The list excludes Reid, Mckercher and Duursma who were 3 of the top 4, picks we wonāt have access to.
Regardless of how good the kid you like looks in the champs or at U18 level or how good they might be in 2-3 years, if you think we are in our window now, then I donāt see them addressing any holes in our list next year.
Thatās not to say donāt pick in the first round but Iād hate to see us use all our currency on kids, which would need to happen to take two top 15 picks.

I'd take Luke Parker. It would sort of be a Hodge type pickup. Provides onfield leadership and direction. When he plays forward, we can certainly use someone instructing the other forwards.

If we were a rebuilding side that d like this, but how are we improving next year buy not bringing in anyone other than Haynes?
The competition doesnāt stand still and we donāt have a young developing list, your list has us trading and getting rid of heaps of experience and bringing in very little
Has anyone said use all our currency on first round picks?
Go back 2 years. Cadman Sheezel Wardlaw Phillipou Ashcroft Ginbey Weedle Jones and more all starting to look very good to me and making an impact at their clubs. Most pushing for finals
Cripps Charlie Weitering Walsh McKay Cerra TDK should all still be in their prime in 2 years. Cowan Kemp Ollie Elijah Motlop Boyd Wilson Moir OāKeefe etc should really be stepping up
We are talking 1 or 2 picks. You need to keep regenerating list with some kids no matter where you are
We will add Haynes, the Campo kids and a few other trades, FAs, DFAs etc. Not sure what else we could do?
Are there any targets we have a chance of getting in an Acres, E. Hollands, Newman etc type deal? High output potential for low cost
Hope so
We need to move on from Martin, time to cut our losses.

I know Haynes has been a good player but Im still not sure he is what we need.
The missing 2nd KPD has caused us all sorts of grief.
Reckon if we paid up a bit more and get a player specifically for KPD it might be more beneficial.
We really need some stability in defence.
I dont want us to find another make shift player to fill that role.

Could it be that he is just the Marchbank replacement?

...and that maybe helps getting Young to play 2nd KPD with Haynes on field help?

In my view I think it needs to be Haynes + a true key defender who essentially replaces Sam Durdin. Young defensively isn't the issue imo - it's his slow decision making by foot. Fix that and he has a chance to get back in this team.
Iām okay with it IF we then move Kemp up the ground. Itās the flow on effect
If we have Weitering McGovern Haynes as our taller back 3 thatās okay. Just important what we put around them
He wonāt cost much
Perhaps just one season more.
Is he worth putting on the Rookie List.

agreed... with the new HP manager never know what happens. He might come good. worth the gamble...he is unbelievable talent.
āMy listā is compiled from feedback that is right in front of us and being stated by many in the know.
The āinsā are taken from what is available, what we can afford under the salary cap and what we need. You said āwe donāt have a young developing listā. We need players developing. The future is as important as the now. We have a window, but we donāt want to end up like Tigers or Eagles bottoming that low. We have some excellent prospects to come in over the next couple of years which will replenish us. We have a couple of holes to fill, and need some pace and precision to compete in the modern game.
Our existing list is capable of a flag with some luck and a couple of tweaks. Those tweaks are available in this draft and have been spoken about on these pages. We need another key defender immediately and will need another one developing very soon. (Haynes hopefully buys us two years to allow development) We cannot buy any more ready to go stars with the current commitment to our contracted players. It is down to top ups, incremental gains through speculative trades and primarily generation next being put together bit by bit.
As has been mentioned by others replying to my post, there are other possibilities for trading. Pittonet and Young are likely to become surplus, but they have a purpose on the list and are contracted. I suspect we would resist Pittonet trades until OāKeeffe is ābloodedā, Young covers many positions, maybe we can find cheap cover and add to the rookie list, but I am not aware of any we are likely to get currently apparent.
I would prefer not to trade Carroll or Owies just yet, but they are uncontracted and likely have suitors. We need the spots.

Young but we do need to get another KPD. Issue is there isnāt many around
I still believe OāKeefe Lemmey or Silvagni going back is a realistic option

yeah it would be great to fill that role from within..
Denver Grainger-Barass is out of contract and with Barass coming in Hawks will let him go
Pick 6 and has struggled but is only 21 which is young for a KPD. KPD are hard to get
Be well worth a try because if it worked we have an important player for nearly nothing
Well if weāre into Haynes,May as well get Parker but another slow mid dosent help still classy player who could add experience.
