If we trade Tsatas it will be for what GWS got for Tanner Bruhn and Caldwell, or what Collingwoood got for Henry.

Essentially pick 16-25ish. Which is basically not any use as it will swallowed up with a Kako bid. I see no reason he can't take Shiel's role in the midfield next year as they have similar strengths and weaknesses.

I reckon we’d use that pick to pair with our current first rounder to get ahead of a bid.

Our first rounder will be pick 10-11. I don't think we need to move our first to get ahead.
I think it’s possible we will. ESPN July rankings have him at 14 and Cal has him at 15. A week later he kicks 3 and has 25 possessions.

Even if we beat Saints and Suns, if we can't get a win against Freo, Swans or Lions not only is our season over but we'll probably have pick 7 (or 6 if pies rally to finish 10th-12th since they have no reason to tank since Freo have their pick)

Beating one of them 3 could be the difference between finishing 7th or having the 7th pick.

I also think it's sheer stupidity to trade a year 2 potential gun mid when it's been obvious we're don't have enough in the midfield when we're just down one player in Parish.

After this season.

Shiel = gone
Tsatas = lets trade lol
Hobbs = we can give you minutes now, oh wait you want to still leave anyway because you felt you should've played more this season and you're pissed.

Oh our midfield is still okay... and oh there we go one of our mids has a ten week injury and we're ****ed again.

Umm OK…

Not sure what most of this rant has to do with my post, but you do you 👍
 
He's found a lot of form because he's having time in the position he should be playing. If he's not playing the offensive mid role in the seniors, don't play him.

Yep has to be in the midfield rotation if he’s playing afl. Hanging the kid out to dry playing him on the wing. He only knows how to play on ball, and he style of play is suited to it. Would rather see Tsatas given a shot on ball next week rather than parish and shiel

Keep him in the VFL.
There is no possible way he is played in position in the seniors (history shows us that). So he can stay in the twos.
 
No chance. Forget read. He is a few years away and it will be 3 top 10 pick territory.
You never know.

He comes out of contract at the end of 2026? We might be bottoming right out then, B.Scott sacked with us on the bottom of the ladder and we could walk him through the preseason draft.

One can dream...
