It's all well and good to draft with the right intentions but if anything, GC's midfield just goes to show that you really need top end picks in there to truly compete.


Rowell & Anderson were picks 1 & 2 and it shows.


Of course, we have high hopes for Hewett but after missing his entire 2nd year, he's coming from a long way back.


Even then, we'd be hoping blokes picked in the 2nd and 3rd rounds become elite.


I understand we haven't had the picks but if we're banking on Tom Gross to be our next midfield saviour(which I hope he does, of course), then it's just a very hit and hope methodology of list-building.


We absolutely have to hand onto our first rounder this year and try to generate another by letting Oscar walk, IMO, otherwise we'll have scrubbed our chances of ever having an elite midfield via the draft before Tassie enters and will rely on attempting to trade in players, or hope free agents want to join.


Warner would be a mistake unless Reid recommits for 5 years and we have an extra first-rounder to trade for him.
