Joe Fonti does sound pretty appealing from the profile that got posted, needs to work on getting more ball but he's an intercepting winger who has pace. Built like a stick from the report but he posted really good numbers at the combine.
I think Hine - Baston will be on our radar especially if Lual is snapped up prior. We’d need to grab him before 40 however so WC can’t match.

Wish we would use a third selection tonight. There's a few on the board i like the sound of.
McAuliffe sounds like he has the traits our midfield will need
Are we thinking we are likely to take two or three picks tonight?

Yeah I hope we’re considering it, obviously depending on how the next 10 picks especially go but theres a lot of talent suited to us left on the board currently. Would love a big 5 player haul, Footscray is going to be fun next year

so how does this work
did he get 94cm off the ground?
was it 94cm over his height of 188cm?
was it actually a horizontal jump?

I believe he's been told before to stay away from draftee's mothers.

We still have to fit Duryea and McNeil back on the list at some point, but that could be as rookies on 1-year contracts. We do have space for three picks. It might depend on whether there is anyone we had targeted still left when it comes around to our third pick (fifth overall, probably around pick 58*).
There's clearly a benefit in leaving a space open for the MSD in 2024. Both as insurance - in case we have a run of injuries to similar type players - and also for the state league players who had been ignored at draft time but are suddenly "flying" in the early part of the season. There are a few like that every season.
* Lachie Neale and Dane Swan both got drafted at pick 58! Three Brownlows between them. Is Milesi superstitious?

Sanders and Croft. Do we now have the most anglo-centric sounding team list?
And Spangher is our most exotic sounding coach.
We NEED Zane Zakostelsky for his surname alone.

Joe Fonti sounds like the frontman for one of those 60s groups.
Joe Fonti and the Zimmermen?!

Pretty sure they measure standing reach then how high they can reach jumping.

Or the nickname of a 70s sitcom star whose full name was Fontirelli.

McAuliffe reminds me of that scene on braveheart.
The clubs are rarely using the time to decide or work out trades though right? They’re waiting to let Fox Footy do their shitty 3 minute interviews with every player. As much as I love knowing Jed Walter’s grandmother is proud of him, just make that a different show, let clubs post to their websites directly, etc.
