I doubt they are looking to trade him out but his name came up in Gettable as a player other clubs may ask about.Tsatas isnt getting traded. Stop this nonsense. Please. You guys are acting like hes worse than Jimmy Toumpas or Richard Tambling or something (despite having played less than 10 games). Hes a good player and will be for a long time. and there is no reason a top 5 pick would be traded after less than 2 years at the club. Even for GWS thats pretty rare. Stop this now I ask kindly, and support our kid and have some faith that a 19 year old isnt the finished product yet.
His name has come up on Gettable for a reason.I doubt they are looking to trade him out but his name came up in Gettable as a player other clubs may ask about.
He is not the finished product for sure but his kicking will forever frustrate .
Please answer all of these questions in your post-game post.I will be at marvel on Sunday and there are plenty of questions to be answered.
How good are the Whitlocks?
How does lalor compete against a stacked vic metro midfield even though still a little under done?
Can Jonty Faull tear a game apart?
Will Finn O’Sullivan build on his late game form?
Is Joe berry better than Isaac Kako?
Is Murphy Reid the classiest of the vic metro mids?
Can Josh smilie smash opponents on the inside and genuinely spread?
Is Luke trainor clearly the best key defender in this draft pool? This has implications for north Melbourne and the shape of the top ten.
Can jagga smith hurt opponents by foot.
Can one of the athletically gifted players such as tauru or burmiester turn heads?
My guess is metro will be too strong and win by 6 goals.
I think O’Sullivan will show why he is the best player in the draft.
I will write some observations after the game.Please answer all of these questions in your post-game post.
Really looking forward to it, cheers!I will write some observations after the game.
It is terrific the boys get to play on the fast deck of Marvel but with a 10.30am start it will be cold!
Most have him in the 15-25 range.Where would Kako go - top 20?
Brad called in some favours after the Geelong umpiring shaftingI'm absolutely shocked that for once a change worked in our favour instead of against it.
Draft will be so compromised though. If they are going to do this, then they need reign in who qualifies to be an nga player. For example a parent working overseas for a year meaning you were born in a foreign country should not mean you qualifyThis is a good change. Everyone gets an academy now. It grows the game and keeps is a fairer system
Then what currently exists provided points matching is adjusted to be fair

Lombard (GC academy) likely ahead too.So Ashcroft the only player likely to be bid on before him and that is Brisbane so that will push our pick one backwards. I would look to push up into the top ten if we don't fall there anyway.
Personally I would've liked them to have lowered it from top 40 to first round, but I'm not going to complain about a rule change that benefits us.... Especially after we got completely shafted by the priority pick change.
Still all it takes is probably another Jamarra before it gets changed again.
