I'm 41 now and would of been about 7 when I wore the 45 for a few years.

The players we got will free up Kozzie, Lindsay, Windsor etc for mid time so not really missing mids. Just promoting a few to more mid time.

Latrell has the natural ability in front of goals that you rarely see in a player. Creates a goal from nothing. He is the perfect small forward and something we are desperate for. Allows Kozzie to play more midfield. Stoked with Taylor. Personally can see him as a midfielder. Allows the likes of Windsor, Rivers, Lindsay etc to play more mid.

Ess now Taylor and risk we don't trade our picks as we probably won't take Sharp.

Who do we pass on Nairn or the 2 fallers?..

Agree. Who knows where he'd rank now if played out the year. Looks like a steal.

More impressed with the Sam Allen videos than Nairn tbh.

Maybe planning on a worst case scenario for GC 1st next year isn't a bad thing. Pick 18, then add all the bids on that. Like with Lindsay we get a year head start on developing them too. Maybe strike while the iron is hot and grab someone we definitely really want. We still have 2 (or 3?)future 1sts to use next year if Humphrey was available.

Probably from this: Zero Hanger Final Mock

Zero Hanger Final Mock Pick 11 for GC future 1st... I'd take it

I don't see him as the best available at our pick no matter what they take before us. Yes I'm not a recruiter and yes I can only go off videos. Nairn benifited from good constant delivery from a good SA team and despite kicking straight the game he got 7, he's ball drop looks horrible. Basically the only good thing he does is he gets in the right positions. I think Sharp is miles ahead of him on that SA team.

Yes very true. Perhaps it can be strategically used though if Nairn or any one slips. We have tried to trade up just about every draft for a while now. Though this may be the one that ends that.

Clubs can say/nominate whoever they like. It doesn't make a difference whatsoever in who they take, it's not a commitment.

I think we are definitely into Nairn. But not at 7 or 8. I guess we are just covering all bases and may well split a pick or start offering GC future 1st after our first picks and take Nairn with one. With the picks coming in 37 will come up likely he's been told we will take him if still available.

Oh how did I miss WC!? Ok, WC, North and Tigers at MCG repeated until end of year.

North, Tigers, North, Tigers and so on every week of year as you said in any manner as I see fit. 😁

It does. Perhaps a good way of advertising the auction, though that has probably already been done in private between clubs.

For us to get one of those, what do we give up? Blues just after points for this year for Dean and better off trading them vs the penalty on them for selecting Dean? GC future 1st and a future 2nd. Or trade 7 or 8 to someone for 2 picks in the teens and on trade one and a future 2nd to Blues?

I'd rather slip to the media guys we don't want that we are "interested in". Try and get a club to take them before our picks. It should be a game of poker. Don't reveal who we want.

I know but only through Google Gemini (which I'm surprised they did get it). So won't say a word.

I think L.Pickett is arguably the type of player we need most. A magician. Tie him to Kozzie at training and barring any concerns on professionalism he would be instrumental in improving our forward line. However judging where he goes in this draft is not easy. Could be early teens to 20 pre-biddng perhaps? Not sure how we get him unless if he's still there say pick 15ish we start offering gc future 1st. As for 7 and 8. I guess it's all on who Taylor ranks them. I'll support trading picks as he sees fit.

Delivery out if the backline is more important than delivery inside 50. Ideally everyone at every position is elite, but not the case. Where is the game style going from here? Personally I think the forward line has tactically the most room to grow for invovation. Those that follow soccer would know that set pieces have became all the rage again. Also the top managers philosophy is structure in the back and midfield, however players must be able to interchange position on the fly. The team has a general structure but must morph as the play goes on and players must be aware of what position they need to fill etc. The forward area is where predictable structure is thrown out the window and players are given creative licence to make something happen. Simply, you don't want to be predictable as that is exactly what the opposition defence is ready for. I always thought with Goody it was the same thing over and over going inside 50 and the forward setup. I feel the game will change inside 50 a lot in the coming years. Hopefully King will the one to reivent it.

Makes too much sense I guess. What about the MCG deep underground? Could call it Hell too.
