Pepe Dee Pew

Ohhh, and BTW, BD is on record as saying he sees Cale as a forward down the track. He is 193 cms so will make a damaging 3rd tall. That is why we did not risk pick 11 or 18 on a tall when there were clearly more talented players at those picks - makes perfect sense. Also explains the logic behind Fitzy and Gawn. We need to develop rucks and Fitzy can play forward - a great strategy by the recruiting staff. Now its up to the footy department to develop them. Fitzy is quick and agile and can mark - needs a few Kg though.

A few more Kgs and he will be able to play anywhere. Incredibly talented is young Cale Morton. If we develop our mids and running backs imagine the damage, Watts, Jurrah, Bate, Sylvia and Morton could do up forward - how could you match them all up??

And then there's Miller

Everyone forgets about Miller as a KPP. He plays CFH/FF and has another 5 years left. Put in some good forwards around him and a good midfield and he will be a better player.

Would not be surprised to see Tigers pick him up at 19 if he is still available. They have a crap list cominibng into 3 compromised drafts. Ball would free up Deledio for a forward role with Martin most likely a number 3 pick and a ready made for round 1. Also they would be hoping for say a McDonald in the PSD who will romp in a game at half back. In this way they can bolster there list. I think we should come out and say we are 90% sure of picking Ball up at 18 - and then pick up a kid - just to P everyone off and get a club to waste an earlier pick.

I'm over Ball to. We never had him in the bag anyway.

Oh and of course he would be a great pick up for the MFC. Fantastic role model.

Forward stack Luke's contract, ie most in year one and decreasing each year. Will suit our cap this year and provide a little more room in following years.

Carlton will not think twice about backing out Or demanding heaps more................look at their track record. Fevola has turned the trade period upside down and we may suffer. Lets hope it goes through ok.

Time is a great healer. If our picks this year are guns, LJ and Watts etc come good then we will not give a rats about whether we tanked or moved Brock on. I think the Brock situation will be win/win.

Things can change quickly but the MFC have publicly stated many times that it intends to rebuild through the draft. I completely agree with this. Carlton are consigned to that 5 - 8 spot. Judd will win enough games for them to ensure crap draft picks for a while and then there is GC and WS to make picks rare as hens teeth anyway.

I would be surprised if Davey left. On the other hand the club may think he will not be around for the next tilt at a premiership. If so and they think they can snare a VERY GOOD player with the draft pick received that will make a difference during the next tilt at the premiership then perhaps its a strategy worth a try. In Brock's case he is not quick and the rate at which the game is getting faster the game may go past him in 3 years anyway. Davey IMO is worth pick 2 - 5 at least.

Get Scully and Trengove and all of a sudden the other mids walk tall, no tags, easier kicks etc. The forwards get good kicks in 50 - they lift and we are happier.

Grimes and Petterd will be dropped for disciplinary reasons - kicking late goals.

If McMahon had missed would Bails be lauded as a genius for far sighted moves?
