Farewell to Our First Pick in 2020
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

Splitting Draft Pick 3
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

Splitting Draft Pick 3
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

Splitting Draft Pick 3
and what pick are we using for Langdon?

Splitting Draft Pick 3
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

Splitting Draft Pick 3
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.

2019 Player Reviews: #9 Charlie Spargo
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.
-
WELCOME TO DEMONLAND - ED LANGDON
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.

Gaff or Andrew Brayshaw Rumour
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.

THE MYSTERY OF DRAFT PICK 3?
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
-
WELCOME TO DEMONLAND - ADAM TOMLINSON
That's reality other options Spargo, ANB, Bedford, Wagner, JKH , Hannan, Hunt sorry I forgot Melksham he would come in for Chandler.

WELCOME TO DEMONLAND - ADAM TOMLINSON
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.

WELCOME TO DEMONLAND - ADAM TOMLINSON
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.
-
WELCOME TO DEMONLAND - ADAM TOMLINSON
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.

WELCOME TO DEMONLAND - ADAM TOMLINSON
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.

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.

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

Willie Rioli Suspended for 2 years
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

Demons Re-Sign Corey Wagner?
He is a rookie no issue with him keeping that spot for another year. His brother needs to be off the senior list though

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

Farewell Sam Frost
Depends in the coin he wants and the coin we have to spend. We need to pay overs to get players like May and Lever into our club, you then add the players we are rumoured to be chasing this year, plus the guys we need to sign next year. The blokes you mention are really on spare change, you need players like that to keep under the salary cap. Frost would be looking for a chip up after the season he had, we might just not have the room to keep him.
-
Farewell Sam Frost
Depends what we get. Frost had a great season which gives him some currency. We have O Mcdonald and Petty, plus Hore, May and Lever. O Mcdonald is worth nothing in a trade, Petty the same, Frost we might get a second round pick. I reckon to club would listen to offers fro Frost and Brayshaw

Pass, can't kick, more of the same of what we have. Watch the finals the teams that will progress are the ones that control the ball, it isn't all about winning the Football at the contest anymore it is more important to keep it once you have control. We cant do that so we need players that can, Wines isn't one of these players
