the thing for me that's different about him is with Boyd and Hogan they threw kids around like rag dolls with their massive frames, this kid has another dimension to his game, he is quick on a lead, a good set shot he doesn't rely on his contested marking, reminds me alot of Nick Rewoldt in that way, and he is also a very capable young ruckman

He's a fantastic shut down defender, never seen anyone have the wood over blokes like Jack Rewloldt so consistantly, His skills leave alot to be desired, his decision making and leadership are lacking but i think the club contributes to that as much as anything. he'd be a loss, but to me it seems he has made his decision already, i just can't see how we are going to retain him on current form.

It depends, Dangerfield is almost 2 years from being out of contract and already put talks on hold, if by the end of this year the crows feel he may leave as a free agent they might see an opportunity to get a really high draft pick as better than the risk of no compo at all the next year if he leaves. Wines is a victorian boy, best mates with Jack, strong ties to the viney family, a big pay rise and the opportunity to come home would get his attention i think, it doesn't hurt to make the phone call, we need these sorts of players to improve

I'd offer pick 3 for Wines, give him a pay rise, if they feel he is going to walk at the end of his contract, a young SA defender ranked so highly might just get their attention pick 2 for Dangerfield, if we offer overs and the crows feel he is going to walk anyway then they might see pick 2 as better than the compo if any next year pick 1,19 and Jeremy Howe for Trelor and Patton? long shot but couldn't hurt to ask, they get a key forward, a versatile forward target who is great for marketing which they need and a good pick, they will then have Cameron, Wright and Boyd as well as Howe and pick 19

why head in the clouds, if we don't win a game, which is a real possibility based on how we are playing PJ and PR will certainly apply for a Priority pick, we will already have pick 1 which would become two and the compo from frawley would be independent because we lost a player to get it picks 1, 2 and 3

I reckon our top 3 picks should be key position player, i like Angus Brayshaw but i'd be looking at Wright and Brayshaw picks 1 and 2 and McCartin left as fantastic trade bait for a Bulldogs or Saints looking for a key forward or Wright, Durdin and McCartin to sort out our key stocks long term, two key forwards, a key back and Hogan to float between

I'm betting we have picks 1,2 and 3 1 as a pp 2 as our normal pick and 3 as compo for chip i reckon we need to ask the club if it's possible to delist 20 players this year, 10 players next and get draft concessions because this list will not take us anywhere besides 7-10 decent players that we have

Toumpas was hardly a laughable pick, he was clearly the more highly rated of all the players available, looking back Wines may have been a better selection based on what we need but Toumpas was rated much higher than Wines pre draft so i am certain we didn't surprise anyone with what we did there, Cook, Gysberts and Strauss are a totally different story, it's failures there that have cost us dearly, those blokes should all be in our top 10 players now

for me the comparison is Kurt Tippett, he's a monster, 202 cm and over 100kg already, takes a good pack mark, his kicking at goal is pretty good, leads hard He's another Boyd, Hogan, Patton type player, probably doesn't have the tank of Hogan but Hogan at CHF and Wright at FF sounds great to me,

Sorry for the missing Poll options, I felt we kinda knew what Vince and Cross would provide so they're hardly a find, and Riley is going to be out for a while yet so not sure he will get the chance to play too much senior footy.

Find of 2014
I reckon it's Jay Kennedy-Harris, He has speed, Skills, leadership qualities, he brings a spark and looks like he has a huge amount of upside I liken him to Allen Christenson, or Mathew Stokes

I don't think there is one this year, Bryce Gibbs is probably not the right type of player, i reckon we collect the compo pick which will probably be pick 4 or 5 and offer both our top picks up for trade, another couple of deals like the Tyson to GWS one will have us looking better and with the Key position targets at the top end the high picks will be more appealing to sides
