Does anyone know why we would go Hayes before Balta when the game is changing so quickly against unathletic talls?

Obviously Stephenson if fit and Brander no qualms with.
Actually don't mind Ballard - could have a very big ceiling once he gets used to his extra height.
The one leysy is really keen on though is Jack Petrucelle - love to get him with one of our picks.
Can see him being a gun half back.
Smoking Aces said:Great call re: Naughton but I cant see him slipping to us.
He has played senior footy for Peel Thunder which is always a great sign for a kid in his draft year.
Being such an open Draft i'd reckon it's because we'll get a slider at 17, who that is we'll find out when it's called. plenty of options.Blind Turn said:It is quite obvious that the experts have no idea where things are going after around pick 6. Five different experts have us taking 5 different players at 17. They all seem to agree on Brander at 20 and it seems majority are on Hayes at 25. Seems like they are all hopelessly guessing and have limited intel. They're no better than us!!
We don't need him now, but what about 4-5 years from now?SCOOP said:I cannot see us taking Hayes. He’s everything we don’t want.
Between Nank, Hampson, Griffiths and Soldo you really don’t need another ruck. You take Balta to play key portion and offer that relief ruck.

What if he turns out to be the next Rory Lobb? Point is if the club rates him high enough then I get using 25 on him. You probably know more about him then me, I've seen like 2 videos and saw an unco piece of play live at the PRE in the grand final prematch game.SCOOP said:Use a pick 25 now on a bloke who can’t run or trade a third round pick for another Nank in five years?
Draft best available and trade for needs.SCOOP said:Use a pick 25 now on a bloke who can’t run or trade a third round pick for another Nank in five years?
