    Thanks Dazzle. Think you’re spot on re: Wilmot, seems like a few clubs have rounded on him as the preference in that range, he could well be the target of clubs seeking to trade up the order a touch. He qualifies for the draft by a single day, so a heap of potential for growth.

    If Soligo is the go for GWS, they could well be happy to move back a few slots and get something else in the door while still landing him.

    Cal Twomey’s phantom is up on AFL.com.au: Cal Twomey's 2021 Phantom AFL Draft: Top 30, late picks, club whispers

    The players we’ve been linked to (at this stage) appear to be in the similar mould...athletic & versatile. A benefit of having a reasonably balanced list is we’re in a really good spot to take the best of a certain type and plug them in wherever we may need them. Howes would be a good pick for us, Twomey also links us to some versatile hb types, which in time could give us the chance to have a look at Riv getting some mid rotation time.

    What a debacle. This is up there with the all time list management own goals. As Luci said, clubs have been too cute with the risk free manipulation of primary and rookie list spots and it’s about time another club took advantage. GC probably regretting letting pick 19 go for what effectively amounted to a salary dump right now. Wonder how keen they are on a 2nd rd pick?
  6. ChaserJ
    Tend to agree. Wouldn’t mind us taking a minor jump up the order and nab whichever of Sinn, Sonsie or Chesser get through. V Good chance one of them gets through to 17 (Chesser seems most likely to still be there).

    Dees Twitter suggesting that we should keep Sunday 5 December free for flag event.

    I thought that night 1 is the entire first round, regardless of the number of selections. The post first round selection (19 which will become 21) kicks off night 2.

    Tiges have done a pretty similar deal to the above with Collingwood. Hoping we can get a similar deal done with Dogs for p23: Collingwood swapped its pick 27 for Richmond’s picks 38 and 40 in this year’s draft as well as a future third-round selection.

    A couple of the early phantoms have James Willis as an option for us in the third round, here’s a profile on him: https://afl.draftcentral.com.au/player/james-willis/

    Starts to get variable after 10 and heavily dependant on individual club views. I’m reasonably convinced that Wanganeen-Milera doesn’t get past pick 13 now (after being viewed as a 25+ range kid around 6 weeks ago). Beyond that, such a wide net from 10-30. Would love for Sinn to slide to us at 19, but a heap of good options.

    Sonsie and Lohmann would be terrific additions. Really excited by Howes & Lohmann in that medium forward group. Starting to take a shine to Fejo jr, keen for us to have a look in the 40's. A few keen Crow fans believe that the Crows love Rachele and may pounce on him higher up. Another who was around the 15 to 20 mark coming into '21, but slides because of injury (taken at 35 above) is Cooper Murley. A bit of Zorko about him: https://afl.draftcentral.com.au/player/cooper-murley/

    Would imagine that we’ll try and grab Brisbane’s pick, Ashcroft will go high and they’ll be looking to bank lower picks.
  14. ChaserJ
    Anyone seen much of Fejo jnr? I know this is a highlights package, but wow:

    Shifter Sheehan’s started to release his profiles of the current crop, starting with the half forwards. Draper the standout, Howes is the one I really like here: https://www.afl.com.au/news/684085

    Love it @MadAsHell, picked a hard year for a phanto!
  17. ChaserJ
    Next year is choc full of tall talent inside 20 and Brisbane will need to trade out their first rounder to match a very high bid for Ashcroft. https://twitter.com/EdPascoe_eDPS/status/1448408932678987776?s=20 I don’t think we need to overreach for a developing ruck. This year, maybe Cripps an option with our pick in the 40s ( should come in to around 42 after bid matching).
  18. ChaserJ
    They would have been better off taking the original offer of pick 17, which Adelaide clearly had on the hook. Swans obstinance allowed us to jump in on the deal and get 17.
  19. ChaserJ
    Unlikely Amiss makes it past both of Freo & WC, would think Bombers would have an interest too.
  20. ChaserJ
    They had to shoot their shot for Horne-Francis. Wonder if North gave it any thought.
  21. ChaserJ
    I’d love Wanganeen-Milera, but he’s bolting. Can’t see him getting past Essendon at 11, could go inside 10. Would be a great fit at Saints with pick 9.
  22. ChaserJ
    They could have just drafted him 4 years ago.
  23. ChaserJ
    Third is ok, 2nd can’t be traded out without either a first or second coming back in. Dispensation can be granted by AFL though.
  24. ChaserJ
    I’d like us to have a crack at p23 from the Dogs. 37 & 57 over to them would give them a 70 point gain on DVI and chuck in a future 3rd to give them something tangible to make it worth their while. 23 too good a pick to be swallowed up in bid matching.
  25. ChaserJ
    The GC argument is that it helped them greatly. Brodie was a player they no longer wanted, but was contracted on a deal that hurt them both with the cap and with list space. They’ve managed to offload him, all of that and salary also get a future 2nd. They don’t do that without pick 19. They’ve got so many high draftees, a kid at pick 19 wasn’t going to move the needle and they didn’t have the space to bring in experienced players. They’re in terrible shape off field, but this deal goes someone way to alleviating some of their problems and about more than binary value of the picks involved. Freo have done very well to exploit GC’s priorities (as we did with the Dogs & Crows in our trade for pick 17).
