If we were to bring in Shiel, Peitling and two early picks (mids) you’d suspect that Zac Jones struggles to keep his place on the list

Mate, Dingley is a really hip and happening place these days.Loves the club so much he’s leaving to go play 10 minutes down the road for reportedly the same money.
Really depends on how many late picks we want. Wouldn't surprise me if we only took the 2 plus Cole maybe.If we were to bring in Shiel, Peitling and two early picks (mids) you’d suspect that Zac Jones struggles to keep his place on the list
The football club is trying to improve quickly, natural improvement + 1 first round pick is not going to do it when teams like Collingwood, Sydney, Brisbane get a leg up through NGAs. So we try to trade / FA route, if it upsets some players, so what? Club before any player.. Everyone’s favourite Plugger wanted out after winning brownlow, it goes both ways..Yes, they were trying to find ways to accumulate additional first rounders. The alternatives involve a rebuild. Otherwise how do we get enough high end talent in?
The argument was never that Battle isn’t good enough mate.
My understanding is that they went through the list and were trying to find players who could bring greater value then worth for.
They still decided they wanted to keep Josh on fantastic money. Let’s not just focus on that situation. He hasn’t been thrown out the door.
Did you say hip or tip ???????Mate, Dingley is a really hip and happening place these days.
Did you know they've got street lights now?
I’d be staggered in this draft.Really depends on how many late picks we want. Wouldn't surprise me if we only took the 2 plus Cole maybe.
That all makes sense and happy with that except for ShielWe will get band 1 for Battle
Peatling, Shiel & Tomlinson should be in StKilda colours next yr
Tomlinson is insurance for losing Battle & allow others to continue to develop… plus he wants out as he and Steven May absolutely despise each other
Peace out
I'd honestly expect more but loading up on late picks isn't really a good business either. We scored massively with Hugo and Ari but that's not really normal.I’d be staggered in this draft.
Of course.its very clear now they never wanted to keep him as long as it got them band 1.
Makes sense and comes with low expectations and no trade cost.For some reason I keep an eye on Tomlinson. He’s been ok in most games he’s played. Was good against us earlier in the year with 110 SC points. Admittedly we were poor that day.
Seems to have been the fall guy after losses for the Dees. Not getting on with May is no surprise. In our Backline system I reckon he would be alright. Enright would see to that.
Tomlinson and Sheil. Party time....Skipped past the last 12 pages
Assuming I missed nothing

No current season stats available
He has certainly masterminded the art of being a half wit that’s for sure.Adam Cooney has us trading out King.....cos Adam is an AFL mastermind.
I'm over the whole list demographic theory.
Younger is better because they'll still be playing further in the future, but they are only better if they are good at footy.
Not many super young sides have won flags. Realistically the bulk core need to be 25 to 30 and played heaps of footy together. Most of our future premiership plans are based on guys under 21. In 5 to 8 years they should be getting closer. We aren’t really chasing a flag. We are buying time.
We didn’t give a ** about drafting for years then all of a sudden we totally myopic. Hopefully they ** it up fast and not bleed us out. We need a broom through the board and a clear plan.

You mean pick 7, 8, 25 & 46 ...... which will actually end up being picks 9, 10 ......
Or maybe even not 10 but 21
I qould be upset if NAS went or this year's drafteesYup, as long as compensation is appropriate, i'll be OK with that. I have zero attachments to most of the list, which most definitely includes Dougal. I think he is an OK player, but I will lose as little sleep with his departure as I did with Billings and Gresham.
