It depends where the top 30 picks are. 7,8,9 is almost the perfect sweet spot if you want 3 gun mids (unless you have 3 of the top 4 picks which is unrealistic) because you get a couple sliders and get to pick from the best of the next group

5 inside 30, if its something like 7,15,16,2x20s as a club needing mids, isnt very good

Its essentially asking would you rather: 3 of Smillie/Langford/Lindsay/Travaglia/Tauru/Reid OR hypothetically a Smillie/Allan/Berry/Hynes/Hannaford quintet

Bare in mind list spots are an issue with Cole/Peckett/Hofmann/Sandy all likely to come in

Cole won’t be coming in.

Wildly unreasonable is a bit rich. It would all depend on who rates who and where they rate them.

A very basic hypothetical:

• Melbourne obsessed with Armstrong & Travaglia but Travaglia won't be there at 11.
• Richmond want Lalor @ 6 who is available but Melb don't rate
• Saints want Lalor and Smillie and take @ 5 & 7. Use 11 for slider, or Lindsay/Hotton.

Interchange names used by all means, but 2 picks in a row can be super important and you never know what dealings will happen based on how these teams will view this draft.

Lalor great player, but he gives me Freeman vibes. Poor kid has been struggling with a hammy injury this year.

Cole won’t be coming in.

Opinion or source?

Lalor great player, but he gives me Freeman vibes. Poor kid has been struggling with a hammy injury this year.

He has had a few concerning injuries ... can't seem to get his body right across a few areas ... hip issue and now a bad hammy

That might change when he gets better injury care/rehab at an AFL club
