Pick 3 in the draft

[B.M]

After watching WC tonight

We have that to look forward to

Only Richmond and North are worse

[saynta]

I think that is what cuddles is aiming for, sadly.

[Devilhead]

Oh fkn woe is us

[Yorkeys]

Well North don't need mids so we should get a beauty.
Also no Thursday or Friday matches and few Saturday evening games.
Unfortunately it also means a game at Mt Barker, about 8 interstate fixtures and no mercies from the MRO and umps. Character building.

[SaintPav]

Yup

Are there any back flankers rated in the top 8 in this years draft ?

[Waltzing St Kilda]

Just hope we go to the draft and don't squander our picks on securing (and overpaying) some mercenary.

Give me Mt Barker over the Norwood Oval oblong anytime. At least Mt Barker is a proper sized football ground.

[Otiman]

Not a bad outcome.

If we're not fighting for premierships we should be fighting for draft picks.

[asiu]

pick 2 would be better

though , no grizzling from me

[Banger9798]

Seems almost like a controlled tank if there is such a thing.

Eyes on top 3 pick and another with a FA compo pick.for Battle.

[B.M]

Would you be happy with a 2nd round pick for Battle?

The odds of a 2nd rounder being at his level is 3-1 imo

Prefer to keep him - draft picks mean FA

Look at Geelong and Norrh

I am not sure Battle wants to stay as he has had a offer on the table for some time now and hasn't resigned.
Also a few teams are very keen on him with some big offers.
If it helps us getting another good pick let him go we have a few to slot in there in Ari,Cordy,Keeler Van es so I am not that worried.

[Otiman]

End of 1st round is about the right compensation for Battle.

[Devilhead]

As long as Shiel is thrown in and Essendon also get back our compensation pick

[SuperDuper]

Battle worth the same as McKay..
Also, we will offer him more than what we would offer Gresham... we wont let Battle leave unless he is getting paid a lot.

Basically, I doubt we let him leave unless we get Band 1...
Gresham, we really did not want him and were happy with band 2

[Vortex]

Battle is arguably one of our most important players without question. Can't see him going anywhere, in fact I'm sure of it.

Don’t know about that - Billings, McCartin, Clarke and Coffield - all taken in the top 10.

Name the last first round selection that yielded us a standout players.

My point is that we’ve played for high picks in the past and made a meal of it.

Playing for high picks is poor management, especially when it’s a lottery after pick 1 anyway.
