Is he up with the others hovering around the 6-15 range, or would he be rated a little behind them? He seems more like a second round pick that a lot of clubs are hoping drops to them. What is his point of difference over the guys likely to still be available at our picks?

This guy has grown on me. I agree he's unlikely to get to us, and from what King has said he's not entirely what we're looking for, but he'd be a quality player for a long time. He can push forward and kick goals, so not as one-dimensional as some would have it. Not my first choice, but I certainly wouldn't be upset if we got him.

His thighs are huge! Honestly, I'd give a rookie spot for him. See what happens with a proper fitness program.

Just getting it out there. This is Bailey Laurie's year. Openings in the midfield, less emphasis on inside ball-winners, need for skilled disposal... It's all coming up Bailey in 2026.

If you ever wonder whether one person can change the course of a game, we just saw it live. One umpire, three questionable free kicks, suddenly Brisbane are winning. That needs to be looked at.

I am unconcerned. He's worth a gamble, even if there are questions over his ability. A couple of years in the gym, he'll be a handful.

I get it. Definitely shades of Oliver in there. He's a better kick, and transitions into an attacking threat. A hint of Tom Mitchell with those 1-2 handball chains too.

That footage wasn't great. I saw six unpressured kicks go straight to the opposition or OOTF. One of those gave an uncontested mark inside the D50. He looks a bit on the slow side as well. Good mark, hard at it, but slow and questionable decision-making.

For me: . Best possible outcome is trade up and draft Duursma . Best vaguely likely outcome is Robey and Grlj . More likely outcome something like Lindsay and Grlj

I'd do that in a second, but WC would be mad to consider it. Remove 13 from the mix and it's closer to doable. Still doubtful given what they would be giving up.

And Judd should be ashamed for his part in it!

Honestly, I'm pretty happy with this. It's a good return given he was a rookie. We were never getting a first round pick for him.

23 for McVee just announced on 9 news. Edit: I see this is already on here.

I just have one question. How heavily front-ended was his big contract?

They're red hot on htb tonight.
