Next year's tipped to be a bumper draft for talls...with that in mind, I'd prefer we kept our first pick....
Why?, talls need 3-5 years to mature, plus we couldn't develop a photo at office works

Ok then, let's not bother drafting any talls ever again because we might stuff them up or have to wait a couple of seasons before they come good....sounds like a plan...

The Tigers' negotiations with Gold Coast for midfielder Dion Prestia have not gained any momentum, with each club understood to be waiting to see how the other values the 23-year-old.

Fair enough, but if you could advise me the name of the last tall 18 year old we drafted who turned into a superstar or even played in our top 12 AT RICHMOND, then that would be great.

Probably Brad Ottens. But in all fairness he was probably the only one we used any sort of decent on to aquire.

Give the lids ( or currency acquired in a multi-team swap fest) and Bellis for Prestia and a 2nd round pick. Give Pies 2nd round pick for M Williams.

...or better yet just keep the second round pick which is way more than Williams is worth anyway...

Yep.
“I find it nearly impossible to make those judgments, but he is certainly up there with the really important ones, he is certainly up there with the Francis Bourkes and the Royce Harts and the Kevin Bartlett and the Kevin Sheedys, there is no doubt about that,” Balme said.
