I still think Kye Declase could be a handy utility for us, ready to go.
Bagman?Melbourne chose to keep Clayton Oliver and we’ve already taken Elijah Hollands.

I think that poster did. No Hawks, Eagles etc.Need to take into account teams with unavailable list spots.
According to the SANFL website he's 24He looks real good.....How old is he?

Sounds good. What's the knock?Current Northern Bullant former Northern Blue.
25 years of age.
Has been considered by multiple clubs in past AFL drafts but never given an opportunity.
Undersized (sub-180cm) but can play all over the park.
Prolific ball winner at VFL level. Can kick consistently 40+ meters. Quite a few 50+ goals.
Potential for a Cincotta-like story.
Would fit in with the potential strategy of going one tall, one small.
I think you're overthinking it, I thinkNames are irrelevant…
You’d think we’d break it down to areas of need, then skill sets that are most important to us in that area of need… Then pick the best available, in that position and with the best skill set…
Smart hey........How many weeks did he miss again?
No thanks. I'd rather Lemmey continue to develop as a key defender. And honestly if there's no chance of them playing AFL in their prefered position then I don't think we should draft them. That rules out mids IMO.Get me a physically developed key defender and a midfielder with pace who can attend centre bounces. Just something to help the VFL team and be available for injuries.
Absolutely, we look at drafting someone who can potentially impact the best 22 down the track, if not immediately.No thanks. I'd rather Lemmey continue to develop as a key defender.

Small forwards, third tall forwards and rebounding defenders are the go imo.
Anyone know what is going on with the mysterious 3rd FWD Rudd?Absolutely, we look at drafting someone who can potentially impact the best 22 down the track, if not immediately.
We have enough decent VFL listed players to cobble together an adequate midfield at the lower level. However, if there is a kid or a state/country leaguer hidden out there, we absolutely should consider them.
We do not need “top ups”. Rucks are good, Sam Durdin was suspension not injury, so we have sufficient “big boppa”coverage. While missing Doc’s coverage in the guts, we have plenty of options. Our defensive injuries will right themselves prior to the mid season draft and we have plenty of smalls and developing outside types.
QUALITY is required, if available. If there are no standouts available at our pick, grab a kid with some potential upside. Not advocating specifically, but we have a Vic Metro KPD in Mardini on our VFL list (been injured), surprise 3rd forward/undersized KPF Rudd on our list and diamond in the rough decorated mid/defender Sruk on our list, just looking at the recent National draft. A couple of nice highlights packages doing the rounds for mature prospects as well.
I honestly would rather the picks not be used than ripping someone out if their established environment for a couple of months as top ups. If it comes down to that, we “must” reward our one or two of our VFL boys who would not be uprooted to get a probable short term taste.
What if his name was “Ace Skillset”?Names are irrelevant…
