Soapy’s “revelations” are both comforting and terrifying.
I will be ecstatic if we hit the draft with two high picks before covering bids for the Camporeales.
Soap has traditionally wanted multiple experienced types to be added, so hope he is overstating the numbers (sorry mate) Would be acceptable for maybe Haynes and one other on the main list and an SSP type on the rookie list.
I was very supportive of the Haynes link when it first came up, but really would be more comfortable if we could find a genuine tall rather than another hybrid type.
Quite happy that Houston is looking out of reach, but great trepidation at mention of Membrey. We need long term pieces of the puzzle, not revisiting stop gap measure every year or second year. Over paying for a free agent or top end trade does not fit our list balance. We must add in the draft unless opportunity knocks for a talented youngster wanting away from his current club.
Reading between the lines, we are happy to commit next year’s first to add to our current draft hand, and the 2026 first, (plus some) will go for Cody Walker. I wish posters and supporters would get real with this manic desire to trade in everyone remotely linked. The draft has to be our prime method of building the list for the foreseeable future.
We need to embrace Moir, Lord and to a lesser extent Lemmey, Wilson, Binns, O’Keeffe and mould Kemp, Cowan and the Hollands boys in to leaders (would like to add Durds, but needs to get fit and re-establish his credentials.)
