It literally makes no sense trading up to pick 9 to pick a bloke who would have been there at 14, probably 17.
Scrimshaw, SPS or any mid or mid/fwd with genuine speed.

Reckon Sydney might go early on Bolton. Slots into that Jetta hole they are yet to fill and improve their 22 straight away, unlike another mid whose unlikely to get game time in the guts in front of Kennedy/Parker/Hannebery.

Maybe. Again though why wouldn't we have kept 14&17 though. Doubt Bolton is going earlier than that. I do really like Bolton as a player.

To make sure, if your recruiters think he's a piece of your puzzle this year why take the chance when it could be the last year before GWS become close to unstoppable.

Scheer would be a great fit at the Eagles. A contested goal kicking mid you can't have enough of those types

Yep spot on I think Scrimshaw would be a perfect fit for your guys. If you can't get him then Florent seems the best fit for outside run and his ability to play on either flank or even a wing makes him a great fit. If GC catches wind that you want English they probly take him earlier and let Taranto slide.

Good chance Logue would have been well gone before 14.

Do you think with the SOS connection and Carlton effectively becoming GWS feeder club, that they would bid on Setterfield at 5?
I think it might be a side deal of them getting players on the cheap.
Similar to my tin foil hat thinking of Essendon getting Stewart at 77 in exchange for us not taking McGrath at 1

They might do that but he could get bid before then anyway either way he should be bid rather early.

You'd only do a deal on Stewart if you were going to take McCluggage anyway but we're pretending to be still deciding. He's not really the quality of player to affect your thinking with the top pick, especially when you have the PSD option anyway.

Yeah agreed, I was hoping Dodo would have swapped 1 for 2 and maybe move our pick 20 down to whatever pick GWS still have in the teens if GWS are that keen on Mcgrath.
Was actually hoping a deal could be struck when they had pick 3, but then they traded with Brisbane is a deal that was a good win for the Lions

Yeah mate sorry it's taken so long, the player profiles take a bit of time and I can procrastinate a bit
should be up sometime Tuesday or Wednesday. I've already allocated players to picks just need to finish of the profiles.

Looks a rookie pick at this stage and really not sure who has him on their radar so hard to tell if Bombers will grab him.

He would be a good choice for you guys I don't think you could go wrong with either

Nah should get picked up and having him going to you guys at your 2nd rounder

2nd Round is now up this phantom draft stuff is hard work
If Kerr or Battle are around at Geelong 1st pick one of them will be taken would prefer Battle but Kerr has lot of upside

Top work.
As an Ess supporter I'd be very happy with McCluggage, Battle and Clarke.
It'll be interesting to see where Marshall ends up and how far he slides.

Yep so would I but good chance that Dodoro picks a player hardly rated at all at one of those picks haha don't think he gets passsed Port at the least and if he does then Bombers will swoop.
Esava Ratugolea has a lot of upside, Trent McMullen is another who plays similar to Josh Jenkins. There aren't many rucks that can influence forward in this draft. Olango is another who is still very raw but is more a ruck than forward at this stage and will take a lot of time but I can't see anyone in this draft being able to come straight in and play that role you want at Senior level.
Don't think Battle would last long past Bombers pick and don't think you guys would hesitate in getting him. Main reason I have Cox for you guys ahead of Kerr is that Cox suits the modern game better and Kerr is far too similar to Hawkins.
