I love Smith, but would he very happy with two monster mids to go with Clarry, Viney and Trac.

I agree with the first bit. I think we targeted Houston for his ball use.

The player you're really looking for is Bo Allan. Smilie is big, but contest isn't really his go IMV.

Agree with this except for FOS. Will be interesting to see who's right over the next few years.

Surely, mate. 😆 Signing the paperwork tomorrow. Not sure how SWYL got wind of it, but I'll make sure the seal is plugged by Monday.

The Curnow comparison is pretty superficial. It's more the way he moves than the way he plays. He's a dynamic half forward, so very unlike Ed Curnow.

Neither would I, but if JT does, I'll trust him.

I.dont understand mate. You want a centre square midfielder but you'd pick a tall like Tauru or Armstrong? Hotton reminds me of Ed Curnow, a lot. Probably more talented though. Ed did play a lot of games though and get the best out of himself.

This is what I'm starting to believe. I think we'll simply snap Hynes up at 9.

The more I think about it, the more I'm convinced our strategy is Langford (or Jagga if Langford is gone) and Hynes. Getting another pick inside 10, means we can pretty much guarantee we'll get Hynes, but if another guy slides that we love, we'll go him first.

And they were room mates!

Watching these clips again make me want Langford and Hynes. The latter is on the end of a lot of Langford's bullets. If Langford had pace he'd IMO be so far ahead of any of the others as a number pick 1. I think his lack of pace is overstated though. He's got that burst of acceleration when he hits the contest. He's got great hands, a beautiful kick, a great overhead mark and he kicks goals. He's very likely to be an A+ AFL player IMO.

Me too mate.

Jeepers DS. You're a duffer sometimes. IMHO.

Jagga Smith at 5. Would be happy with Langford next if Jagga is gone. Smilie or Allan if they're there or Hynes at 9.
