If the season turns to *smile* and Dusty wants out and Schache wants in, would trading Jack for Schache be a silly move ? Would give us a 20 year old number 2 pick KPF and 3 first rounders. Much rather win a final and Dusty stays

2017-A time to stock up on Talls
- Thread starter caesar
- Start date
I should have clarified that better, i meant 2 picks one for Schache & another on a tall or a mid with the other pick.SCOOP said:
SEN reported this morning that Schache is priority #1 for us.
but def not for 2 picks tho.
with the Cap due to go up Cap won't be an issue even if we do get Schache, this is why Clubs like Norf think they can get both Dusty & Kelly even tho it sounds as tho they'll get neither.
This years draft is shallow, we have two picks in the first round. Next year is a tall superdraft we would be better to trade into yhat draft with 2 first round picks
apparently top 30 is ok in this Draft but it falls away after that, we currenly have 2 picks inside that so we can do some damage with those 2 picks given schache is out. either get 2 talls or a tall & a pure mid plus NaishTails said:

5-10 and yes, he'd be a good fit. Think he's a genuine ruck/forward in the making, more ruck at this stage but he's kicked 6 in the TAC and also kicked the winning goal last week. All-Australian as an under-ager.
with our 2 1sts's are you going 2 talls or a tall & a pure mid? with a bit of luck Naish falls as our 3rd pick.bullus_hit said:

Depends if we land Reid, I think he must be a priority. Watched the game last night and despite the fact he wasn't dominant, he's still capable of taking a strong contested mark. For me I would look at something along these lines.
Reid - free agent
Balta/Hayes - first rounder
Higgins, Petruccelle, Cerra, Raynor - first rounder
Naish - F&S
With our lack of Height wouldn't we go two talls with our first two picks then Naish. Or do we go tall in next years draft? what's it like for tall v mids?bullus_hit said:
nice, not sold on Reid but although he's average he's still better than what we have & would allow Balta/Hayes to develope in the 2's till ready.bullus_hit said:
How cool if both of those are there at both our picks (talls do tend to slide out of top 10)
Might have to lower expectations on Talls this year they will go early and there are not many of them:
Callum Twomey's 25 player's to watch from under 18 champs is now up on AFL website. In it he says in a year light on for talls-------
How things change in a year
Theoretically, if the quality talls are gone at say our 1st pick 12? do you go next best tall even if our recruiters have him ranked 30 or best available?
I would do the latter, which would still leave us bereft of talls.
No wonder we were trying to scavenge someone else's young talent, Schache.
We will trade in a stop gap for sure which is hard to get excited about.
