bullus_hit said:Agree, that would be a fine haul for a side that finished top 4.
SCOOP said:Double Agree. Look how aggresive the Pies have been. Look at how many they turned over.
Look at who we kept. We are passive.

You think? I dunno, they lost Dawes, Wellingham and T.Young and gained C.Young, Russell and Lynch. Not so sure they'll benefit there but their positioning in getting 18/19/20 has worked out well.Leysy Days said:They certainly have. Played the free agency/trade period beautifully.
& with Hine & there recruiting team you know they'll make there picks count.

Gus would you take Grundy at 9 do you have others ahead of him?Gus said:I'd be surprised if GWS take Grundy at 3.
Agree,is the most underated junior atm purely because of a knee injury he MAY have in the future!BloodOath said:From what I hear Menzel should go top 5 personally think we would be stupid to go past him in the scenario above.

Could easily be a Pavlich/Darling type player.
Is a leader and a captain.
Is a strong overhead mark.
Is a strong pack mark.
Is a proven lead up forward.
Can actually kick straight.
Can kick goals and plenty of them.
Can play a role in the midfield.
Is already a big powerful type.
and lastly he has what Hardwick loves ... plenty of grunt!
do any others around our first pick have these attributes in the same doses?
Agree Rosy.....impossible to pick the draft order. It would be mere speculation. Which qualifies just about everyone.rosy23 said:Decent source or not how could anyone know which players the clubs are likely to pick?
My source is closely involved with recruiters from various clubs, and knows what their preferences are at certain picks. This was essentially the order of the first round at the time that I posted. Who knows, it may change. I see that GWS are warming more to O'Rourke lately, over Grundy.rosy23 said:Decent source or not how could anyone know which players the clubs are likely to pick?

Not necessarily. I can only see a situation like that arising between picks 12 and 14, or picks 18 to 21 (pre-Melbourne and Adelaide sanctions)rosy23 said:Sorry wasn't questioning your source Danog. I just don't understand how anyone could know which players other clubs will pick. When they might be after the same player as another club wouldn't they keep their cards hidden?
