Roos are a real wildcard here. They could get draft assistance either through the pre-listing of Sanders and the massaging of McKays FA compensation if he leaves. McKay leaving could leave them with either picks 2 and 3, 2 and 11, or 2 and 19. (Compensation being immediately after first pick, mid-first round, end of 1st round) If they can pre-list Sanders and Callinan through draft assistance I can't see the AFL massaging any FA compo and will most likely net them an end of First round or 2nd round compensation pick. So pick 19 or pick 21. They have a lot of capital to play with here including a valuable future 1st which will appeal.

Whatever the case is, we have to get it perfectly right as there's not much wiggle room left before finals. A re-injury now would be catastrophic.

Agree with some concerns around Duursma, hoping for a strong end to the season because the talent is there but consistency is lacking. I think we shouldn't sleep on Watson. I'd have him in a heart beat and would make our forward half so much more dynamic.

Reid Watson Mckercher Curtain Duursma Sanders Caddy My preference is for Reid. But if we can somehow land 2 of the players underneath him then we are also laughing. Depending on how we view the development of Adams and D Turner, I could see O'Sullivan being on the hitlist as well. No doubt a bolter will come into first round calculations at some point. Looking at later picks. Archer Reid is a watch for me. 203cm forward that could compliment our list well. Would need to see some consistent performances in the back end of the u18 year with gippy but finished the championships ok for VC. If we want some more run out of the back half then Luamon Lual could be a good 2nd round option as well as Harry De Mattia. Midfield depth could have George Stevens as an option. Big bodied mid, not overly quick sure, but is probably one of the best kicks in the draft which would be a nice point of difference for us in the middle.

Might be a trick of the camera but Jefferson looks like he's put a bit of weight on in his upper body in particular.

108 point win over them in round 7. Charlie kicked 9 that day and already has 6 half way through the second quarter. Compromises the Coleman a bit. Percentage not much of a concern for us considering there draw earlier but chance to pass the cats.

Carlton up 52 to 1 with 5 minutes to play in the first.
Carlton v West Coast Five and a half minutes in and Carlton are 26 points to 0 and have had 43 possessions to 8. 186 challenger on the cards?
Good chance to watch potential recruit Zane Duursma in action again for Casey.
Allies dominate U18 All-Australian team after unbeaten carnival - Kynan Brown not named.
Hard to see West Coast giving him up since he's contracted for another 2 years and young enough to build a team around. Would be amazing get though.
We should be in the conversation but Roos and Hawks will no doubt make good offers as well.
Videos been removed, wonder if someone has realised the mistake and will upload again with the correct graphic.
I can't see it either, but the afl keep it secret and the cynic in me says they will manipulate the system and dress it up the compensation anyway they want. You're probably right though in Sanders/Callinan being the main draft assistance if that were to eventuate. In that case hopefully FA compo will remain true to contract value.
So North may end up with pick 2, 3 (mckay compensation) and Sanders, who is easily a top 10 pick. Jack Callinan also falls under their NGA and would be another free hit. They're doing well out of that.
Tigers look far from convincing against West Coast. Perhaps hawks are a sneaky chance next week?
