Wouldn't shock me at all.

Has some limitations, principally his disposal, but he's otherwise a sound modern footballer

If the next 10 picks from 8 onwards are 'fairly even' then why would GWS give the Saints 2 of them for pick 8?

Caruso does some strange things at the table on draft night

Eg giving Saints a future 2nd last year to move up 1 spot when they were never going to take Leake over Darcy Wilson.

You've misread last year's trade for Leake. Sure, they only swapped spots with us and we loved Wilson - but there were 16 other clubs in the running for that pick which got Leake.

A fairly even draft is one thing, but every recruiter will still have their favourites. If GWS have identified someone like Travaglia, Reid, Allen or Armstrong as a must have - then they'll be in a good position to pay up for their guy. GWS have a lot more talent on their list compared to St Kilda so can afford to zero in on a player they love moreso that a rebuilding club with list holes eveywhere who would love two bites at the cherry.

No they said solid tumour. I assume that means Ed Allan might have cancer

Would fit in with the Dees current culture then.

Likely.

But Twomey himself said there is a world that Smillie Langford or Draper all get to the saints at 7.

Smillie and Langford might.

No way Draper gets that far.

Can it be operated on?

I think we would offer 8 and 32.

It wouldn’t look so bad then would it.

GWS might give you 16 and 21 for that if there's someone at 8 they really want.
