It seems to me that the pertinent question is who should we have gotten that we didn’t?
The only talent out there IMO that was available and cheap was Narkle from Geelong. Didn’t attract any interest and would have come cheap.
Reckon he was worth a call
Ladhams would have been a good pick up ,reckon he will be a top player.
But whether it would be worth a slide in our first pick is debatable.
We need another key defender - I liked the idea of Xerri but think we mightn't need him if Ryder can get a good number of games in this year - 2023 maybe 2 x king can chop out for Marshall - Heath you would think with luck is also a possible occasional player by 2023.
I am happy we kept our picks this time around and hopefully we don't trade away next years second round like we usually do. Mitchito Owens and Marcus Windhager will require the picks we currently have and we may not get one of them if they go top 20. I am more interested to see who we draft with out pick 11 (pick 9+2)

Are we not going to get injuries next season?
Yes of course we will and again the rucks might be stretched and P.Hunter hopefully can be fitter and play ok if required- but you're right I have re thought my post - and now think - "f#ck we missed Xerri, 2022 is now a complete write off - we are definitely playing for number #1 draft pick in 2023"
An AFL list i have says
List Lodgement 1
tbc (approx. Thursday October 28)
List Lodgement 2 (Final date for primary list delistings)

Final List Lodgement
tbc (Mid-December)
The Saints are under review, will it make any difference to the underachievers ?
