The 2019 Draft and Trade Targets Thread
I would suggest that our club knows who they would like to target in the draft. Pick 3 would assure that choice. Lower picks probably wonāt. Surely for all the pain we went through this past season, the only benefit was assuring ourselves of the best (or 3rd best) available choice at the draft. Keep pick 3.

Joel Smith
Hope he fully recovers. Heās been so unlucky not to get a run of games to prove himself, but I think the sign are there. Injury and a basketball background says he needs time to perform. Iām happy to give him that as I believe he has the potential to develop into a great asset for us, either forward, or Iād actually prefer him to Tomlinson on the wing. He certainly has the athleticism of Frost, but far more natural ability, and a far higher ceiling IMO. Given the time heās had off the field, and assuming he is fit, iād allow him till at least mid season next year to prove himself before throwing any barbs his way.

WELCOME TO DEMONLAND - ED LANGDON
If he ādiesā Binman, I would hope he doesnāt choose us. We have enough problems.

Any thoughts on picking up James Monro from Casey after his great season?

Phantom Drafts
I know very little about these kids but the video I seen of Stephens impresses me. Your thoughts on how he compares to Young would be welcome.

Farewell Sam Frost
If someone doesnāt want to be at the club, why would you keep him? Surely itās that simple. I donāt care how good or bad he was. If he canāt buy into the red and blue, get the best deal you can for him. Ive certainly gone cold on Frost. And itās obvious by the clubs reaction - or lack of - that they have too. Best of luck sunshine.

In terms of the trade period, what will be will be. Langdon and Elliott would be my priorities. Two big fixers for our system. Pick 2 should be retained for someone like Anderson. Tomlinson not so sure. Only really looked out for him in his last two games, and thatās probably unfair sample for me to judge. What would excite me though would be if we are able to get AVB and Joel Smith fit and firing. They would be like 2 best 22 recruits in my view. AVB adds so much to our side and I think Joel will perfectly compliment Langdon on the other wing. If we were able to get KK fit and firing would be an absolute bonus, but not hopeful there. Top 8 for sure next year.

Trengove delisted
Two things: - this thread is about Trengove - whatās this got to do with him? - you are a brave man to be making those sort of comments about Mr Flower on this site. You might be shot.

If we got rid of Oscar, then there would be a lot of DL's that might have their anger levels significantly reduced this next season. Would hate to see that. So I have a suggestion: Straight swap - Oscar for Jack Watts. Win win

Willie Rioli Suspended for 2 years
The whole episode has so much ādumbnessā attached to it itās hard to grasp. If there was any evidence of a banned substance surely he would have been suspended earlier than this. As an alternative scenario, was there any chance he was just trying to be funny and tampering with the sample as a joke?

i think ANB just needs to go to Spec Savers. No one naturally fumbles that much unless he has a sight problem. Does he have a dog?

WELCOME TO DEMONLAND - ADAM TOMLINSON
If there is a better free agent out there that we are not already chasing, please let me know. Otherwise, Just do it. The fact that he has been good enough to retain his place for 80 out of a possible 81 games in a team as strong as the giants, including a number of finals, makes him a class above a large number on our current list. Surely itās a no-brainer.

Question Red. Are we asking them to move on, or are they leaving us? Big difference Iād suggest.

Brayshaw a Better Player After 2019
FFS, I read that article and think just how deluded are these guys. Oliver, Brayshaw, Viney and Harmes have egos the size of the MCG and despite the magnificent efforts of Max, these midfielders have been abysmal for us this year. These are the guys that should be setting the standards for the team. Come to think of it, maybe they did. A huge dose of tough love from the coaching staff is required.
