The Dunkley’s did a deal with Sydney that they would only accept a father son nomination if the Swans agreed to only match interstate clubs. Josh only wanted to go to Sydney if it was to avoid another interstate club, he had a strong desire to stay in Victoria. The Swans not matching had nothing to do with not rating Josh. 

Thanks DS. Didn’t know that intel.

    I would like us to grab Caleb Poulter a potential class act apparently  Happy to take Jack Carroll, Errol Gulden and Sam Berry though.

    Poulter would also be a good addition. Classy skilled left footer with good size and tackling ability. He’s definitely in the frame.

    After giving this careful consideration, I think we'll end up with:

    1.  Charlie Winner

    2.  Juan Hundred-Gamer

    3.  Andy Depth

    Interesting draft year for me, knowing less about the players than in any other year I can remember.
    I can sit back and be happy with whoever we get.

    On the piece of paper, in order of potential priority and likely availability  

    Macrae ?

    Carroll ?

    Cook ?

    Laurie

    Stone

    * bid Gulden

    * bid Coleman 

    Poulter

    Bowey 

    Winder

    Ford

    Angwin

    (* both Gulden and Coleman are excellent youngsters but imv bids are definitely going to be matched... but we may as well force swans and lions to use points)

    As the picks currently stand pre-draft.

    18. Carroll

    19. Holmes

    28. Bowey (if we keep it)

    or

    50. Callow 

    Think we'll add a tall to compliment our team if we go for two medium sized runners. Either that or another small forward but I don't think there will be much in the way of quality at the back end of the draft.

    I believe Green is pushing the credentials of Holmes very hard at the Dees.  I think he was his school footy coach.  Can anyone confirm this?

    I’ve heard of the Green House link but never Green Holmes

    Green was at St Kevin's and Holmes played school footy at Melbourne Grammar.

    No link at all.

    Don't think so Dazzle, almost certain Green was at MGS.

    Reckon we’ll swap 18 & 19 for North (originally our) pick 11.

    And take Archie

    Considering Essendon are expected to take him, and the fact that they have three (?) picks before 11, I can't see that happening. I get the feeling we may stay with the two picks rather than upgrade.

    Yes you are correct.

    And we'll say that we took Charlie Winner because he was clearly "the best available" with our first pick; that Hundred-Gamer "comes from a great family"; and we "couldn't believe our luck" that Depth was still available at our third pick. I accept that I may have those statements in the wrong order, though.

    So are we taking 3 or 4 players - I thought with the players being shifted to the rookie list we could now take 4?

    We’ve got room for 5 if we really wanted to, but every pick after 3 means we’re using a main list spot rather than a rookie spot. In effect we’d be spending 80k salary cap we don’t want to spend. 
     

    The draft could fall a particular way that makes 4 picks too good to pass up. But 3 seems far more likely.

    • REPORT: Gold Coast

      Steven King astutely identified the issues that had plagued the Melbourne Football Club over the past two and a half seasons when he auditioned for the newly created coaching role. The side that had claimed the 2021 premiership had become stodgy, slow-paced, and hesitant to take the initiative.

    • PODCAST: Gold Coast

      I’ll be away for the next few weeks, so Binman will be holding the fort for our podcasts covering the Suns, Bombers and Lions matches. As a result, there will be no live podcasts during this period, and we won’t be taking calls or voicemails. Binman will still be dipping into this thread to select a few questions to answer, while also combining the long-form Stats Files podcast with the Demonland Podcast for these shows. Your questions and comments are a huge part of what makes the podcast work, so please post anything you’d like to ask or say below and we’ll do our best to give you a shout-out on the show. Please try to keep each post focused on one specific topic or player to make podcast preparation a little easier. If you have multiple topics you’d like to raise, please put them in separate posts.
