    Hirst would be my choice with pick 3.

    Dunkley if Hirst is gone.

    We've been linked with both Hirst and Lowson so if Carlton go for Deluca then we should end up with one of them. 

    I'm guessing Gold Coast go for Dunkley.

    Zac Williams has done a hammy for GWS.

    And Mummy could be suspended for a hit on Murphy. Even if it's judged as accidental Murphy has gone to hospital so you think Mummy's in strife.

    In an incident that is likely to draw the attention of Match Review Officer Michael Christian, the right knee of the Giants' ruckman made forceful contact with Murphy's rib region.

    Freeman might be worth looking at. He is injury prone but if we give nothing then he'd be worth a gamble. We need pace and game breakers.

    11 odd hammies later.. unfortunately he's lost the pace he had. That's why the Saints got rid of him.

    Is there a mid season draft happening for state league players? Maybe we could wait until then, to see if we actually need another back up ruck.

    Just until mid March and only to replace an injured/retired player

    Clubs will also be able to sign players via the rookie list between December 1 and March 15 to replace retired or seriously injured players.  

    AFL brings in mid-season rookie draft for 2019

    This name sounds interesting -

    Bigoa Nyuon 18-May-01 195 84 Dandenong Stingrays Rowville Junior FC Rowville SC

    The name sounds Sudanese and since he comes from the Dandenong Stingrays which is in the MFC Next Generation Academy zone, he could be in the same category as Toby Bedford is in this year.

    One worth watching in the future.

    Bad news, he's under the Saints program (not sure why though as he does play for Dandy which is in our zone)

    Assuming this goes down and then we do the Hogan deal which pick are we using to get May?

    a) Freo's pick 5 or 6

    b) Freo's pick 10 or 11?

    Obviously b is much better because then we can use pick 5/6 on a top draft pick

    So can he be signed by any club as a Cat 2 rookie or must he go in the draft?

    Cat 2 rookie (as long as he hasn't been playing afl for any junior clubs which he wouldn't have in Ireland)

    I may be jumping the gun, but I'm guessing the likes of Johnstone and McKenna are playing for their AFL career? Even Pedo now that Weid appears to be adequate as a back up ruck.

    Mckenna - yes, playing for his career

    Pedo - will be his last year, thanks for the good times

    Johnstone - should get another contract

    ... means we’re going to be in a percentage battle with Geelong, and I’m not particularly interested in missing the finals by 0.5% again

    Geelong won't make up 13% and finish on the same points as us (because that means they'll drop a game or we win a game)
