The Draft, Trades, FA, list changes predictions thread

[Pilchard_Adams]

Thought this would be a good idea for a thread to show how much / how little us supporters actually know about what is happening during the off season. After seeing the McGovern thread grow by about 1300 posts in 24 hours without any new information being provided, and the Trade Targets and Draft Needs threads doing similar, I have come to think that what the club knows and what we know are two very different things. So have a go at these questions, feel free to add your own, and lets see who gets the closest once the silly season is over. Copy and paste the questions and feel free to add your own

1. How many list changes will the club make this off season? (Already 5 - Jarman, Edwards, Dear, Gibson, Hampton)
2. Will we take any free agents?
3. What will be our first draft pick?
4. What will be our last draft pick?
5. How many draft selections in total?
6. What will our draft selection numbers be?
7. Will we get any of the 4 big named SA kids in the draft this season Luko, Rankine, Hately, Rozee), and who?
8. Will we recruit a ruckman this off season through trade, and who?
9. Will Cheney, Otten, Cey, Signorello get new contracts?
10. Will we trade out any players?
11. What will we get for McGovern?
12. Will McGovern go to Carlton?
13. Will we trade in/out any future draft selections?
14. Will Port end up with a higher first selection at the draft than us?
15. Who will be the top 5 picks in the draft in order 1-5?
16. Will Grigg find a new AFL home?
17. Will we have another player request a trade out of the blue, and who?
18. Have we finally heard the end of the Preseason Camp, or will more floaties rise to the surface?
