I think we'd be looking at O'Sullivan with pick 11 more then anything. I could be wrong but.

Yep, Dees both have interest in O'Sullivan and Wilson. Geelong, GWS and Adelaide especially have significant interest in 'Sully' I'm sure we have a range players in mind for pick 11 but that's all I know from up this regional way.

We have interest in Darcy Wilson from the Murray Bushrangers.

Sander and Wilson would be our dream scenario.

Poor bugger. Reckon he is pretty stiff considering he missed significant part of the season due to injury. Footy can be brutal.

Can someone please give a summary on Melbourne?

There's a significant drop in talent after the first top 5 picks imo. That's not even counting Jed Walter or Ethan Reed.

That pretty much leaves us with Curtin...

A few on here will argue you on that 🤣

Whilst I still disagree with you still and could debate this further more I appreciate that you brought up some great point. I don't work in the resi care system, it gave me a starting point in the sector and simply got out of it because it was too full on and the system in itself is broken. Been doing this for 11 years and it certainly doesn't get any better.

You were the one making the comparison that someone yelling racist comments is far worse then someone taking recreational drugs. How you came up with that logic i have no odea. Doesn't matter what drugs it is, recreational has the potential to cause far worse damage or even death. It's destroyed families, marriages, lives and still continues to do so. I very well know players around the league certainly take drugs, it's still not an excuse. Regarding Adelaide You're making out that the Crows culture is still in damage control lol. The camp situation happened only 6 years ago. Since then there's been a new coach, new leadership and overhaul of the list. They're still attractive star players in the likes of Dawson and Rankine and just missed out on finals and we're close to nabbing a premiership CHB. Right now, our issues that's going behind the scenes is far worse then what Adelaide is going through right now. Bringing up the camp situation from 6 years ago when the club has completely moved on from that is naive because they've shown that they clearly still attracting talent through the doors. They've completely turned their culture inside out since. Ours has since gotten worse.

Haha really? Drugs in society is far worse then the two examples you've just brought, by an absolute mile. Not only has drugs completely torn apart families and children in society but its also taken the lives of many good people. I work in the child and abuse unit services in the region country areas and I'm seeing kids as young as 10 addicted and overdosing on the streets. Why? Because this is an intergenerational cycle that's been past down from their abusive parents or through the OOHC (out of home care system.) and its easy to get their hands on for a quick couple of bucks. It's cheap then ever on the streets. There are simply no comparisons. Two completely different set of complex issues.

Tim Lamb confirming we'll take 2 picks to the draft.

Ha.. spoken like a true ex copper here Lamby. No [censored] and doesn't feed into what the media want to create headlines.

Great pick up!

What a pick up! Great work Melbourne..

Elijah Hollands is a huge steal for Carlton. Wished we pushed harder with this one.

Haha.. definitely what I meant.

Billings is far better then Harmes. You then say Lamb's last day haven't been successful? Short memory.. he recruited both Schache and Hunter on the last day of trade period last year.

Essendon

Nope, I'm with you on this mate. At his absolute best and when fit he could become one of the steals of this trade period. I've always rated him and feel like his stalled development comes down to St Kilda's lack of ability to develope players over time. Shrewed recruitment by the dees if we can get him across!
