How can they call themselves a Draft expert if they aren't across the players? Do they just have really in depth knowledge of how the draft works? Pick 2 comes after pick 1, but before pick 3. Oh my word, I'm a draft expert!

We don't have that many spots to fill

Trade up to pick 4? We get Watson, Hawks get Curtain?

Leaves the hawks to still take Curtain (who they are considering with Watson) and get an extra 1st next year

Write up is in the Tholstrup thread

Might have a bit to do with how many list spots we have. If we pick at 6 and 11 and have committed to upgrading Turner, we may not have the spots to match

They can trade on the night. Don't reckon they trade today

What about: Melb give 6 and 11, receive 3 North give 2 and 11, get 1 and 6 WC give 1, receive 2 and 11 North get Reid and Caddy, WC get Whoever they want at 2 (Curtin or Duursma), Dees get Duursma/McKercher/Watson/Whoever.

How tardy was the time keeper on that siren?

Sounds like we will play Bulldogs again in round 1

Gary Pert has just out a very long statement addressing Clayton Oliver, Joel Smith, Simon Goodwin and the MFC culture

Even the AFL are bored

This is the news item

Listening to the Channel 9 sports bit where Norris made this comment, it didn't sound like progress had been made. Just that it's a trade still to be finalised, it probably will be and the soonest it can be done is... checks watch... tomorrow.

We give up Petty, 11 and a future first? No way

Yeah, I just had a listen to it, just wanting to hear him talking about how good our girls were. Instead, it was all about how unfair it was they had to play us, given we won it last year and they won the spoon. His point was in a 10 game season, 1 shouldn't play 18. But it was a real toys out of the cot moment

This was before this rounds games

JvR was a first round pick 2 years ago, and has developed well since then. No way would I be trading anywhere near that. He'll be a 200 gamer for them. JvR and 11 at the most. Not pick 6 as well

If Petty's going to leave anyway, I'd rather Petty for 10, 20 and McAdam, then pass 6 and 10 and future first to WC for Darling and 1.

It was BS. They were both at a Connor's Sports breakfast

We have Fritta. Gunston isn't the key forward we need

The danger is North who need KPP, but maybe they think O'Sullivan is the better option as a pure KPB rather than Curtain as a tall HBF/mid.

Won't consider offer of extension is concerning though.
