Is that pick #8 in the draft?

Looks like a cunning plan

Sadly it is 9, and presumably will slip to 10 when Brisbane match an early bid for Ashcroft .

It may be too low for us to secure Academy player Cameron McKenzie. I see Cal Twomey has him at 6.

Ideally we try and trade our way into an extra pick in the first round to try and supercharge the serious list improvement needed.

Billings and another player is the obvious choice but who is the other player.

After Fridays match I would have said King but calmness has returned so King gets a repreieve but seriously who have we got that we could package up with Billings to be any chance of securing a first round DP.

Coffield?

Great - the afl can hit us with four top eight double ups yet again.

So if you were in charge of our list we would be guaranteed wooden spooners.

That's a stupid thing to say, I'm just like all the other clueless supporters who say clueless things not deeply rooted in fact or reality like suggesting the reason a DP4 who is about to enter his 5th season in an elite environment with access to elite resources can't execute Auskick basics but can some how claim it is the coaches fault.

I know farg all but my eyes tell me King has played like a spud this season and has cost us games and arguably a finals spot.

The fact you’d even nominate King even after Friday indicates your footy knowledge OR you might need some special help

I know it borders on sacrilege but believe the only experienced well ranked player that would attract plenty of interest and offer a decent trade pick is Gresham who's RFA next year so may well move to another club then anyway. I base this purely on the importance to recruit projected NAB draft #6 Cameron McKenzie who could well be a cracker and emulate Windhager and Owens in his first year:

Tough call, but it's all about building a much stronger list!
