We need to take a first round pick this year, to make next year a little easier.
I can see us sliding for a future second or third, (doubt we'd get an extra first), even if it's a couple of times, but not out of this first round altogether.

Jasper chellapah of ESPN has Hannaford going to GWS next to our 14 (17) pick in his phantom draft . I don't think he will be there beyond pick 20 in the draft.

Not a fan of drafting a replacement for Pearce. We've drafted three KPDs on two years - I don't think it changes much that none are exactly the same type as Pearce is.
Let the recently drafted guys develop or fail first. If it's fail we trade in 3-4 years.
Think that's common sense tbh.

Another phantom draft linking us to Hotton.

I will take that, and let us pick out favourite
I will be looking closely at Drapes next time he stands next to Moose to see if he might have grown an inch. Currently they say he is 4 cm shorter than Alex. 197 vs 201 cm. He has a good leap, speed and athleticism and we know he will get stronger. Lets hope he is still growing.

I think it’s convenient for them to give us Hotton in these phantom drafts because they think he go around that range but can’t see anyone else who’s interested. I’d expect us to take all of Berry, Lindsay and Travaglia ahead of Hotton if they’re still on the board.Another phantom draft linking us to Hotton.

The only phantom that actually matters at this point now that there's no more games is twomeys pre draft one. He's the only one with proven reliable information about who will take who. Everyone else in the mocks is guessing with the possible exception of the one published in the Fairfax papers

Those three plus Shanahan - those I believe are the ones we have interviewed multiple times, and unlike some other clubs, when we interview multiple times, that is normally a good sign of who is of interest to us and there is normally a good correlation to who we will pick unless someone who was a "certainty to not be there" falls through (say Draper or Smith or someone like that). As you say, the Hotton thing I think is just people trying to fit him in somewhere around this range but for mine he is someone that will probably drop to the 20s or further.
Hotton is a Vic Metro kid coming off an ACL. Two red flags for me.
In an ideal world we draft someone who adds to our depth straight away but has the ability to develop into a best 22 player. A Vic Metro kid probably walks back home in three years if they play say 12 games in season three.

I could tolerate that, if he good skills.
I don't think he has good skills. At least not in front of goal. Watch his footage from the Round 1 game. It is a horror show in front of the big sticks. Sprayed 3 or 4 absolute sodas that went nowhere near the goals. He kicks 4 in Round 2, but 2 are from the goal line. The others were nice enough snaps, but from relatively close range. His goal in Round 3 also from the goal line. His field kicking looked a bit better, but quite a few turnovers sprinkled in as well. Have zero interest in him.
Agree, that was my point.
Joe Brierty in 91.3 fm, just now said, best available at pick 14 , from a priority list they will prepare.

Not a bad option, unless it’s an inside mid or KPD with no flexibility. I’m starting to come around to the fact we probably need a developing KPF too. They usually take 2-3 years to even be ready for AFL and we lost 2 in the offseason plus a medium forward.

I really like Tauru. It would be a dream for him to reach us at 14.
