I think for me, our first round picks need to be Vlas / Ellis type characters and I don't think we are yet strong enough to let these types slip through our fingers.
2nd round picks - we tend to struggle with, but given we tend to use these on larger bodies that take more time to develop and still come at a risk - McBean, Griffiths, Rance (end of first rd), Bach, Post, not sure where Elton went, its too early to tell on our track record with these picks but is a sound strategy. Given we still need a CHF, should continue down this path (or best available if a small goal kicking fwd or another mid)
Therefore, third rounder on Garlett, or second rounder if there are no decent sized bodies left of sufficient quality.

Im a fan of Dayle Garlett and have hoped that we take him last year and again this year but heard something yesterday thats dissapointing
We all hear that Dayle didnt turn up to a interview with port adelaide and apparently did the same with Fremantle as well
last week he didnt turn up to a meeting with Richmond also.
Suggest that he has agreed with a club and has been instructed to act accordingly to make his way through to them
Nothing concrete but sounds like a Carlton / Essendon type of move

Yep was mentioned in Emma Quayle's article.
"but it was disappointing to hear that he didn't show for one of his club interviews this week."

Will be third rounder or never, seeing as we have apparently shipped our second rounder off to the Blues for Hampson.
Exposed talent says first round pick easily, nothing surprising at all. Exposed headcase says run away, run away, faster you fool.Baloo said:
A quality club with an excellent culture n development system should be able to take a punt n improve the young fella. A desperate club might simply grab whatever they can n hang on grimly for the ride of their life.
Who knows what the various clubs are planning in regard to Garlett, perhaps there's a sneaky going around spreading dis information to keep him available for a suitable low risk pick, wouldn't be the first time.

That's the thing Baloo, what he does well, he does so well, his talent is worthy of a pick from 10-30 IMO.
With the ball he is Lewis Jetta mixed with Cyril. Without the ball he is Relton Roberts. But this is only desire, not ability. When he wants too, he is Cyril like with tackling but only once a week.
Baloo said:
I have no doubt that he is good enough and worth the punt. If we got him dong his good stuff twice a week in our forward line, it would be huge. Its very rare that a youngster excels at WAFL or SANFL and it doesn't flow through to AFL level. At worst he is a much better Leory Jetta.
