Can't help but think there's gotta be some significance that Saints are looking at McKernan & Petrenko.

Trouble is, does this make them more likely or less likely to take McCartin at #1?

They are also looking at Reece McKenzie. They have added Membrey, a slightly smaller forward.

I think it makes them less likely IMO.

Slightly?

Membrey is significantly smaller.

He's a classic tweener.

If a delisted pickup is dictating who you than take with pick 1, I'd suggest that club would have rocks in their head

No, it's more trying to work out their overall strategy.

"If we're going to pick McCartin, let's surround him with some more solid mature bodies, at least for the next 2-3 years while he develops"

Or, "We can go with Petracca if we beef up our forward line in another way" (hoping that either McKernan or one of their young talls can shoulder the load when Roo retires).
