Agree on depth, and you should pick best available according to your strategy ie if you’re in the window pick someone that will help.

Where we diverge in opinion, is for example if I have choice between a mature age player that has a 10% chance of making the grade and contributing to a premiership or a young player that has a 70% chance of making the grade but not contributing meaningfully in this window I choose the latter. No point selecting a player that won’t make the cut based on need.

We’ve essentially taken this approach with our first pick. Second pick I think is need as you’re advocating for…I think with Ned we’ve gone in open eyed. His strengths are at the level, his weaknesses (speed, kicking) are evident. I think we can make this work whilst we have players out, won’t be surprised if he’s straight in as he already knows our system.

Smit has way more upside than Teakle - it will just take a bit longer.
It may also mean we've seen the last of Begg.
Long is not fast and his kicking can be a bit dodgy, but he is good by hand, big, strong and a tackling machine.
If his role will be to get the ball out to the likes of Nick and Crisp, he should be good at that.
Maybe a bigger, but not as good version of Titch.
With the latter under a cloud, he's probably a good choice.

I don’t think the depth of talent is there in mid season drafts. I can only think of about half a dozen players who have been a success. If you don’t have a pick in the top few, it’s even less likely.

I would think if you are a team contending, you find a player that can help you during the season, rather than in a few years time. We are vulnerable in the ruck given the injuries. Cameron is our only available ruckman, and if he goes down, we are in serious trouble.

Bolded has shown to be patently untrue.
The entire concept of “help now” has proven be a bust. No team has done that to date.

Every team has use MSD to pick for the future.
Suspect it’s because of 18 months contracts.
Picking someone now limits what you can do at end of year (when majority of contracts expire).

No team has drafted for now.

Was Marlion Pickett a pick for the now with Richmond?

Honest question as I don't remember the specifics of that pick exactly, but I do seem to remember they picked him to do a job pretty quickly, even though he was injured. Also did play in their flag

Must admit I don’t recall that.

Except he played his first game in their GF in an almost 100pt game and was “amazing (like ffs!!)….so I’m not going for “the now” given that was 10 weeks after he was drafted.

And since then he has done absolutely nothing but clog up a list spot,

So, I guess kudos to tigers for picking him? He was the difference.

He’s a free hit, already on board and one more player we can bring in from our Magoos. Not much changes for him apart from a potential crack this year. Would probably be on a 6 month deal but not sure.

Yes 6 months, but given he just turned 21 a few months ago, we would see a longer term future. Even if he is a mature ager.

100 % agree, we had Adam’s in the midfield for so many years…he was very effective.

Big question mark on Mitchell.

Not if it’s 6 months.
Where was that written that it’s 6 months?
If true makes sense as to why we took him at 19.

6 months is nothing about long term.
That is “this year only”. Absolutely not long term.
He has 6 months to change our minds.

Maybe he’s our marlen picket Basil brush this year.
But 6 months says short term and immediate coverage. Nothing about long term.

He was recovering from injury so couldn’t play for the first 5 or 6 weeks.
