Who is coming to the Saints this year in the draft.
I cant see us not getting Petracca at 1 so I hope we get
Petracca
Jordan De Goey
Liam Duggan
Hugh Goddard
Jack Steele
Kyle Langford
Any two of these guys would be great...more chance of etting Steele and Langford than the others but hopeful that Duggan drops to 21...

Who Do We Take?
Now with our picks sitting at 1,21,22, 41 who do we take with these picks?
Pet at 1? Nackers at 21? slider at 22? and possibly someone different at 41 whether it be a ruck/tall/small?(daniel, touk miller?)

They are committed to taking him with pick 24.
They also have pick 4, 6 ,7, 23
They will get Findlayson as an academy player at pick 80.
The rest will be rookie upgrades.

Re: New Saints in Draft
I am not sure now who we will take with number one pick, let alone the others. I thought it would be Petracca, but McCartin seems to have made a comeback.

We have total control over pick 1, the remaining picks are dependent on the actions of other clubs.

I'll go early.
Subject to change (probably multiple times) and based on no real knowledge whatsoever.....
Pick 1 - Petracca
Gun, goal kicking midfielder
PIck 21 - Reece McKenzie
Big Lump of a forward
PIck 22 - Tom Lamb
Could be anything
PIck 41 - Caleb Daniel
We need a fan favourite cult figure every year.

To make it worse it will have been better in that case to have swapped for 4 and 6, as 4 will gain access to McCartin or Wright.
Petracca for me.

1. Can forwards get enough opportunities without a midfield that has quality and depth? Nup.
2. How did our midfield stack up this year? Short.
3. Who was our best midfielder over this year? Lendog.
4. Who just retired? Lendog
5. Does that retirement leave us even shorter? You freakin' bet it does.
6. Why would we draft a forward with No 1? We wont.
Hopefully The Protractor will go someway to addressing the biggest hole in our list, which at the end of the year got one helluva lot bigger.

IMHO if he pulls his head in Lambikins could be the equal second best (with Brayshaw) player in this draft. Hell, probably the outright second best.

Re: New Saints in Draft
After Petracca we need outside speed (run and carry) elite running players and big key defenders. Perhaps they can pick up a small foward (Saad) at some stage also, hopefully rookie draft.
