Hopefully Tomlinson finds a new home and we can keep whatever pick we net for him handy for a slider

Woof - glad we’re getting pick 9 but gee we’re paying a premium for it Not sure where we’re going to get the picks from to get Harry Sharp out of Brisbane? They need picks in this years draft and I’m not sure what we have left over after this? Edit: I see we’ll have 49 left which I’m guessing would be part of an in principle agreement for him

We’re so back

I reckon a third rounder gets it done - the Lions sound like they’re being reasonable and won’t stand in his way (take note GWS)

Joe Berry looks a treat - would be a good get with a late first round or our second round pick

I saw that too, but it was also reported in The Age that we’re big into Kako with our pick I don’t think we’d actually want to take him with 5 but hopefully Essendon do 👀

Thanks @JJJ - do you have any sense of whether the club still thinks this is a list on the verge of a premiership? I’d be very curious to know how the FD views our list internally after the past couple of months

Thanks @dazzledavey36 I spoke too soon

I wonder where Bont, Cripps and Green places in their draft years? The closest comparison to Langford, particular Bont

And I don’t think trading a future first for pick 18 (early 20s after bids) is good business at all unless a player we really rate slips to that pick on the night

I’ve been critical of his list management over past few years but I’ve always been impressed with his straight bat when appearing in front of the media and this was no exception He certainly hasn’t been done any favours by others at the club…

He hasn’t sounded too impressed with Pert in some recent comments But who knows, maybe he’d be up for the challenge?

If Derksen isn’t available it sounds like we’ve got SFA to look forward to for the rest of the trade period Here’s to the pick swaps 🙌

* cries in Italian *

It seems like Collingwood will be getting pick 13 as part of the Noble trade unfortunately which is going to make it really difficult for us to trade into the first round, with Richmond favoured to land Brisbane’s pick 20

You reckon he won’t respond to meows and hisses?

Sure, you got his number?

m8 people are allowed to have opinions about anyone at the club based on publicly available info, most of all the CEO whose primary role it is to provide stability and inspire confidence in the direction of the club Regardless of what he has or hasn’t done, if he’s not meeting this criteria he’s failing at one of the core parts of his role

It certainly exonerates the club somewhat if it was his management that first broached the subject this year I still don’t think Pert handled this with any care at all mind you

I love Kane Cornes now

Goody is not going anywhere this off season unless a) we have a replacement already lined up or b) the review finds evidence so damning that his position is untenable Unless either of these are the case, now is not the time to be removing our senior coach, particularly when we’ve already lost two senior assistants and we’re only a month away from pre season

I believe he said “we don’t boo at Collingwood” when the crowd started booing in response to another club being mentioned The irony

Latest reporting on Richmond is that they’re considering Lalor or O’Sullivan at 1 (but it’s still very open) I haven’t heard word on who North would take but they’re open to splitting 2, with West Coast also open to splitting 3 I believe there was some word West Coast liked Draper but I could be imagining that - there’s no way he gets past Adelaide though given he’s from SA

He’s still my number 1 pick of this draft (outside of Ashcroft) - would be stoked if he slides to us
