Hope we take two picks to the msd and hope a small fwd or wingman is there at our second pick

We must really rate tucker as a key forward/ruck.
No shit lolWe must really rate tucker as a key forward/ruck.
Ruck. Don’t really see a forward there.We must really rate tucker as a key forward/ruck.
obviously edwards isnt getting another contract and we're looking to the future.Ruck. Don’t really see a forward there.
The explanation for our pick still doesn’t make sense. We need to replace Free, a ruck, to help fill a short term gap with a development player who would barely be ready for vfl footy?
I get that, but then why not just take on a mature ruck for 6 months and pick up a project ruck in the main draft. A development ruck is horrible cover for short term needs.obviously edwards isnt getting another contract and we're looking to the future.
Xerri has a huge injury cloud and if he goes down when goldy is out we'll need to replace him with our VFL guy.

I don’t know man, both Xerri and Comben have gone down with serious injuries, both may never come back the same, Edwards might have to show a bit more but he’ll probably be afforded time to do it because of the above.obviously edwards isnt getting another contract and we're looking to the future.

So are we any clearer on whether we're taking one or two players?
When does the decision on Mahoney and Free get made again?
It feels like FOMO is the driving force behind our strategy for the midseason draft. We seem to always select the player that 'a lot' of other clubs are into.

And we always seem to go hard in the trade period for players that have their one good game for the year when they play us.It feels like FOMO is the driving force behind our strategy for the midseason draft. We seem to always select the player that 'a lot' of other clubs are into.
Yes well we seem to be a little besotted by tall fellas that for whatever reason don't play at AFL level often

Main stand-out trait for me regarding Tucker are his foot-skills - he's a seriously good kick for a ruck. Needs to work on his ability to get around the ground and impact with ball in hand. He's got a strong pair of hands but needs to work on his endurance and getting to the right spot to make sure he can impact in the air.
He's a project-type pick, and while I'd prefer we go with some more experience, I don't mind the selection if we go with him.
