It's even pointless then! We should be looking at the Premiership 22 in 2016 or even 2017!

Disposal looks good (elite)!

Some = DMMA (only)!

If he is top 5, why would we not grab him at pick 8 rather than miss out at 25?

I'd take Kim Vandenberg in a heartbeat (and stay home instead of going to the footy)!

Vanders has: A) more presence than Matt Jones; B) more hunger than Matt Jones, and C) more awareness of where the goals are than Matt Jones. I don't think so!

Despite all the posts about Watts being traded the MFC offers Watts (along with Hogan, Tyson, Brayshaw and Jones) as one of the limited options for player images that members can have printed on their 2016 membership cards. Do you really think that they would promote this option if they were planning to trade him? (On the other hand, Howe isn't offered as an option!)

Unless you are Sir James Hird ($1Million holiday in France)!

We don't need Brighton Grammar softies like Salem. Picking up Dawes was bad enough!

I think that every Club looking at an Essendon player will have this covered. It is just a shame that the hearing cannot be concluded prior to trade week.

There goes their hope for a PP! Made my weekend!

Another preseason and we will have a handy player!

If you want two people with the same surname in the team, why Redden?Personally I would be happy to see a second Hogan (or two Dangerfields)!

Maybe Casey? He plays well,there and knows the game plan!

I think that you will find that White also has something! Our selection of the four rookies last year was inspired. Obviously Vanders and Harmes were lucky to get a promotion into the Ones!

Hartlett has just been resigned! He isn't going anywhere!

Having a year off through (a well-managed) injury didn't do Hogan any harm. Expect Petracca to make a similar debut and be the 2016 Rising Star!

Let's hope that he becomes a regular in our backline with another pre-season behind him!

Not too sure whether we gave Riley much of a chance to prove himself. Seems a shame that we delisted him so early whilst retaining the (contracted) Terlich.

Not sure that any of these suggestions make sense, especially your lack of faith in Stretch and Harmes!

Little Goffy's pre-draft player profiles (post #22) are quite compelling and I am sure were instrumental in GWS's decision at the time, as he appeared on his Cannon's record as the elite defender in the 2012 draft. Interesting stats in the four profiles posted are that, as Plowman got taller (191>192cm), he also got lighter (86>84kg) and his current Club profile has him at 90kg. Not sure that they would be too demanding in their demands for him considering the fact that he only managed two games this season, and his stints up forward have resulted in a career total of a single goal! To offer up Howe, Watts or Toumpas for him would be a mistake IMHO, however I see no reason why we shouldn't consider him as a project at a fair price (just in case the pre-draft reviewers got it right)!

What is on the video? When I clicked on the link it said that it is not available?

Or Petracca, Brayshaw, Salem and/or Hogan!

Yes strange that we sent him all that way, merely for five days of specialist treatment. I hope that they either:A) have some other elite specialist sports scientist working him on his fast-tracked recovery a second week; and/or B) we have a good video record for Misson & Co. to implement in relation to other MFC players steering similar injuries in the future!

Be ironic if we got Josh Kelly as we forgo him to get Tyson and Salem. Interesting too, if we got him we could very well have five former Brighton Gtammar School teammates running around in Watts, Dawes, Salem, Hunt and Kelly!
