Okay I'm convinced that Colby must be our Harley replacement.
Pick 2/3 is too high a pick to draft Curtin.

If you want McKercher, you probably have to hope North get 2 for McKay, so that ensures they’ll take Curtin, otherwise we likely will.

I was reluctant to trade pick 19 due to its 2nd night draft loading but now its pick 21 I'm all in on trading it for GC pick 4 .

If we have 2 and 4 I believe Curtin will slip to 4 .

Hawks at 3 have just drafted Granger barrass 2 years ago with a very high pick and they have macabe who is a first round F/S KPP this year .

Pick 2 McKercher
Pick 4 Curtin

Yeah getting GCs pick is a must now. If we walk away with Curtin and one of Duursma/McKercher then it’s not all bad

The thing is...

once we get on top of our injuries we'll be pushing up the ladder no matter who we take.

Injury management and fitness is more important right now than who we take imo.

We can't get any momentum.

When we do, we start looking competitive

Thats why it'd be handy to make the most of our time at the bottom with the best draft picks possible, whether its the draft position or the number of good picks acquired for that pick

BOND 007 what have we done. 2009 flashbacks?

2009 - Pick 1 down to pick 7
2023 - Pick 1 down to pick 2.

I've said plenty about Reid and his potential downsides in regards to being a full time mid. I really don't think the club loses much from a draft perspective. Who the club is likely to draft in the second round is likely still there. Really depends on McKercher's ankle injury and who WCE draft. I very much prefer McKercher over Curtin at this stage.

As far as i'm concerned Reid isn't even the most talented player in the pool (he is more talented than McKercher or Curtin). He does some really, really great things and those things he does he does really, really well. However there are a couple of red flags and i think Eastern Rangers and I are in agreement with pretty much all of them.

Talent only gets you so far.

Who do you think is the most talented kid?

Other teams can comfortably outbid us for GC’s pick 4 unfortunately. Our 2nd, Port’s 2nd and our future 2nd plus promising not to bid on Walter at 2 could get it done, but I doubt it, also don’t see the club doing that anyway.

 

[EagleMutt]

Can't we tell north to win and we trade them harley and 19 for pick 2/3

Key position players priority for me. There doesn’t seem to be a huge difference in mids

 

[mattyc75]

Oooh dodgy knees


Reid slips to pick 47

Just 19 would be nice

Duffield said months ago that wcoast was high on duursma. Could be on our radar

Phil likes Walter

Walter would've been my first choice if only he wasn't a northern academy player.

He said we were into Cadman and Clark last year…

McKerchers injury apparently serious.

If we’ve sat through this horrific season and our big prize is Zane Duursma, I might be checked out.

I feel sorry for whatever club falls for the Duursma gimmick.

Curtin and Reid to North at pick 1 and 2 and we get Duursma at 3 from a record breaking season. Fantastic

Zero chance north get pick 2 for Mckay.

End of round compo

[WCE_Phill]

With pick 2 sewn up....let's move heaven and earth for GC pick 4

Colby and Curtain would be a good result

 

[new breed]

Now North have pick #1 I reckon the AFL will see it differently and late first round compensation ....sounds dodgy but the AFL system is a little dodgy at times but NM have a generational player don't need the extras .

 

[StevieP24]

I think we should be petitioning for a lottery draft starting this year.. would help against tanking..

Brave man predicting what the vAFL will do.

Their formula for who gets what is guarded in secrecy tighter than the Coca Cola and KFC ingredients.

vAFL make decision on the fly depending on what agenda they are wanting to run with on the day in question.

Agree. Think they can’t afford to give them 1 and 2. Could have gotten away giving them 2 and 3.

If they go end of first round they can also probably give them sanders as well.

Either way we will get nothing extra.

 

[WCEswift]

Im a firm believer in different style mids, we have a shuey similar in hewett which i think mckercher is the same. Ginbey and culley are ball winners. I feel like we are missing a midfield driver/navigator... I kind of want Sanders. How does it happen? no idea obviously not 2 of 3
