If we can secure Cerra and he does cost us the two picks, it would probably be better if it was our first this year plus a 2022 2nd with a 3rd from Freo coming back. Would mean we will still have a few picks in that top 15-30 range this year to secure another mid and KP player plus potentially Cerra and maybe Narkle. Happy with that.

Just cause he would cost a first round pick why is it a no thanks ?

Former pick 5 with all the training gone into him by Freo to this date !

Sometimes I think some overate draft picks , how many 1st round draft picks don’t turn out that flash anyway.

We have 2 of them atm & maybe another late one if CCJ chose to leave !

I’m not saying a definite yes , but I’m more willing to wait to see what our picks are first !

It’s not like he is 28 , he has years of footy in front of him

Love your thinking, especially if he can be our next Prestia but stay healthy
 
I would love an in and under middy tbh. As much as I want to see Sparkle and the Cherry on top walk into our club, which is giving me a chubby, I’m sick of us getting smashed on the in side so my query is why can’t we have that in and under for the bash and crash. Too many games get away from us in the past for that particular reason.

Narkle adds a lot there - depth wise at least. And I like his ability when he can show it.

It'll be interesting to see how RCD and Dow go next year on on. At the least they both have inside ability. We might have a good contested ball group in 2 year time. The issue is right now. Cotch on the slide, Meatball only fit 1/2 the time.
 
Cerra's kicking will be nice, but a big, clearance beast is a MUCH bigger need right now.
 
You know there is actually a way to get Cerra and make both teams happy with the trade result

Freo gets 2 x top 10/12 picks
Richmond get Cerra for $600k whilst off loading a player that would be fringe if Cerra comes thats most likely on $400k a year

Both teams would be extremely happy i would think

let me know if you guys want to know the master plan

Dow was great tonight. But yeah dude spot on. Sparkles coming on. Once he gets to that magic 50 games he’ll go another gear.

I've said previously that I believe that the likes of Cerra and Narkle would be better pick ups for us from a list structure point of view instead of someone like Green.

Firstly, IMO the cost is going to be about the same to pick up the 2 of them compared to just getting Green. GWS aren't going to let Green go cheaply especially when he is contracted for another 2 years, whereas the likes of Cerra and Narkle are coming out of contract and their clubs don't really have any leverage because of that. There will be a bit of to and fro in terms of negotiations, but I expect both deals to be quite straight forward.

Secondly, IMO Cerra and Narkle are a better fit for the way we play. Both Cerra and Narkle come across as hybrid mids who can play both inside the contest and on the outside as well. If you look at our midfield group they all come across as the same albeit at slightly different levels of impact. For example Prestia and Cotchin are better on the inside, but can also hurt on the outside, where as Martin Edwards & Bolton are more damaging outside the contest, but can still win their fair share inside.

Green on the other hand is more of a pure inside mid who does his best work at the contest but doesn't seem to hurt the opposition in general play, I'm not saying he wouldn't be a great addition to the team especially if we were to change tact and become a more of a win the clearance orientated team rather than relying on forcing the opposition into turnovers through dirty clearances.

Cant believe anyone wouldn't consider it for a first round pick. Even day of the week for me.

The way were going our first alone should be just about enough. Probably another sweetener as well. No chance cats 1st alone gets it done.

If jack Graham played a game like cerra yesterday we'd all be frothing over him. Cerra will be a gun and adds something we don't have to the mix.

Because The kpp is what we need and there is a big drop off after the first 12 picks

Like who ?
There are only 2-3 that may go top 10
Darcy (father son doggies which no team has access)
Mac Andrew (doubt he goes top 10 seems a project player thats 70kgs)
Gibcus (Genuine top 10 chance)

KPP that will be available after #12
Williams / Vanrooyen / Amiss / Bazzo

we could easily take Vanrooyen & Bazzo with 2 of our picks inside 30
