Hickey not in same paddock..never was
sure easy to say this now... Hickey could be anything... a little early to write him off.

Well, we just re signed Maister and Milera and tdl probably has 2 year deal???

Confused by who we will delist if we want to upgrade a few rookies and have at 3 picks at draft and maybe trade in some players??

I remember hearing / reading that Collingwood had Spencer White in their sights with the pick that they eventually used to snag Grundy - they didn't think Grundy was going to be available at 18 .....is that how the story goes?

Yeah that sounds familiar. I hope Spencer turns out to be a steal because Grundy has a nice head start. We might love Grundy if Spencer turns into the next Buddy.

Brodie Grundy was taken with 18.
What trade are you talking about?
On that and that alone I would take our draft selections with Membrey becoming TDL.

We picked up two talls and the first trade included a young flanker, a should be better flanker and James Magner version 2

Membrey was the other big slider ironically. Well and young Garlett who didn't even get rookied and Colquhoun who went as a rookie despite dominating for SA.
