Yes next years draft have a lot of top end NGA and Father son picks, with so many clubs looking to cash in, doesn't seem though the MFC is one of these so we still need picks to get access to the talent outside the priority access picks. I'm the opposite thinking, we need to get back into the first round next year, unless we do have a kid in our NGA or a Father son that we consider a first round pick .

Still think it will be Pick 6 and Future first round pick from GWS for pick 3, it gets us back into the first round next year most likely between 8-15, really we could take either Young, Serong, Flanders, Ash at 4 and you should be getting a quality player. Then you look at either Kemp, McAsey(tall Forward), Weightman at pick 8 or one of the first 4 mentioned slip through

What about 7, 10, 22 from Fremantle for 3 and 8

Who is on our NGA or Father son priority list for this and next year. Do we have someone that we consider a top 8-10 pick in 2020 that we will get priority access to. We do need an injection of some quality young talent, hopefully we get it right. Can see us offloading 3 to GWS for 6 and future first round, giving us 6 and 8

Nothing it is another option outside getting Pick 6 plus something, really all they can offer us is future first rounder which really will be 10-18 or a player. Or we get involved in other deals to try and get 2 top 10 picks for this year

GWS want pick 3 to get a player in before anyone bids on Green. Could we be involved in this Sydney: Get Daniher, future 3rd pick out Pick 5 and Papley Carlton: Get Papley and Pick 26 Out Pick 9 and 43 Essendon: Get Pick 3 and 43 Out Daniher Melb: Get 5 and 9 out 3 and 26 future third round pick We go to draft with 5, 9 and 50, keep Round 1, 2 and 2 x 4th rounders in 2020 and add Langdon/Tomlinson

and what pick are we using for Langdon?

Agree with what you are saying but we are really getting him for nothing, he would add to our midfield depth I reckon he and Petracca could rotate as Midfield forward. You still will get a player at 6 with the attributes we are looking for. Not sure what else GWS would want to give up for a 3 place upgrade

GWS would want to try and get our pick 3 to ensure no one bids for Green. How about Pick 3 for Bonar and pick 6, we might need to throw in a late pick for points but I reckon GWS would want to remove any club from bidding for Green, means they basically get the 2 players that would be top 10 picks for 12 and 18, massive win for them We walk away from Trade week with Langdon, Bonar, Tomlinson pick 6 and what ever we get for Frost.

We need to work out where this kid will play, is he a small forward or a mid that can play forward. Not sure on his injuries this year but to me he really struggled with kicking this season. Don't think he has the speed to be an effective small forward.

Your dreaming Harmes would be Third round pick, might get a late second round. Personally would like to see Harmes of HBF, I reckon he gets lost in the midfield most matches. Sydney in the past have been great in trade week, they got most deals done early. There is no reason to wait until the deadline to get deals done. This one seems straight forward, just sign it off and move onto the next deal.

This has been going around for a couple of weeks. If there is any substance to this surely Geelong would want him as part of the Kelly deal, would still cost West Coast a pick as well say pick 24 and a swap of first round picks.

Hayden Young, watched a bit of the U18 championships IMO he is the best kick in the draft, meets a need an attacking HBF with a enough pace, good size

That's reality other options Spargo, ANB, Bedford, Wagner, JKH , Hannan, Hunt sorry I forgot Melksham he would come in for Chandler.

We play a 5 man forward line with a forward pushing into the midfield around the contest. I'm suggesting we still play a 5 man forward line with a roving link up player rather than adding a player around the contest. Someone to kick to that will work hard all day to present. You have Weiderman and McDonald closer to goal with 3 players hopefully Elliot, Fritsch and Chandler( I put him is as I think he is the best small forward prospect we have on our list) buzzing around. Petracca goes into a Midfield.

I think he slots into our best 22 and offers something, as I mentioned though I reckon as a Mobile CHF rather than wing someone that can work up and back to link up or defensive to forward something we really struggled with this year.

and we aren't going to get a star on what we are offering him. We are trying to fill gaps with the available cap we have, Langdon, Elliot and this bloke if we can walk away from trade week adding these three and losing 1 draft pick to get it done it is a pretty successful week.

The kid is 6 years away from being old enough to be drafted, a lot can happen and I'm sure these concessions will change, if they haven't means Gold Coast won't have an AFL team and will be the Tasmania devils

I see him as a mobile CHF that will work up and back all day. We need a player that can be a link man from defense into attack and that's what I see this guy doing, hard to match up due to his size and will run all day. That allows McDonald and our second tall forward to play deeper. He basically becomes our 7th midfielder working from deep defence to deep forward. We play this way now a forward pushes into the midfield leaving us with a 5 man forward line ANB plays this role.

You are calling me out for what saying Watts has skill but couldn't get enough to impact a game and that our Mids and Wines can get it but don't have the skill to keep it. Looking at that I'm sorry for pointing out the absolute obvious, I shouldn't post what everyone except you sees.

Read the post again, I posted it isn't all about the contest anymore, meaning you need to be able to win the ball but more importantly keep the ball, suggest you have no idea our turnovers is the reason we finished 17th. Adding Wines just adds another player that is extremely limited by foot.

On the trade market he is an early third round pick, he is worth more to us than a third round pick

Isn't the reason that both NFL and Baseball didn't have a strong stance on doping in the past and the players stood up to being a part of WADA and the leagues have made these concessions. This boy will be missing for 2 years at least, just silly

He is a rookie no issue with him keeping that spot for another year. His brother needs to be off the senior list though

If North wants Frost, we would need to look at Mason Wood and pick 43 for Frost and 56
