With Mitch Clarks retirement, it does bring Patrick McCartin into my draft targets. Comparison to Johnathan Brown is a big drawcard. Imagine Hogan and McCartin in the same forward line. Giants have Patton and Cameron and we should aim for 2 key forwards.

Contested possessions = Christian Petracca

"Demons cull recruiting team". After poor recruiting over the last decade, Jason Taylor and Todd Viney will have town hall meetings with Demonland representatives. " We could only do better" said one Demonland poster. Cook, Gysberts, Morton were spineless types all clearly not up to the rigors of the AFL. Young men with grit, determination, a desire to win are needed. We cannot continue to get it so wrong.

Wright is good but injury prone and I worry about the MFC curse !!! Angus Brayshaw is elite. Tough, skilled, smart ... Gary Ablett junior like. He is gold

Thats ok. I called for Wines and Freeman/ Dunstan/Sheed over Salem. Mature bodies with grunt. No Grgic, Cook, Gysberts or Morton types. We have no gym and IMO must draft players who are ready to go.

1st round #1 potentials Angus Brayshaw Pat McCartin Christian Petrecca ... my choice Jake Lever 2nd round Billy Stretch - #19 father son #20 frawley compo - Tom Lamb. A huge talent. Draft talk in April !!!!!

Just read on AFL website that McStay has been courted by some clubs and may go Top 30. He will be a very good CHB type.

I hope this kid is available at pick 40. Is exactly what our "2017" premiership team will need.

I was a big fan of Elliott Yeo when he played for WA UNDER 18s. He is an ideal HBF w/o runs the lines & has elite disposal. Worth investigating. PSD#2 would be good. Stuff the Lions.

Why not just "any reasonable offer" to be considered...

agree, Chris Michaelides is best option in VFL. If we look at a rookie type, Todd Banfield from Lions is off-side in Brisbane but has pace and great goal sense.
