Reckon Ugle-Hagan will be very handy for GC.

Assuming pulls the finger out

Do we actually think Grlj is up to AFL standards I've seen him play in the VFL the GC alot off kicks were in the back half and pretty basic ones to me just a thought i still think he is a risk specially at that high pick...
Robey has come along way his main games were this year against two average teams calder and jets but his GF was good and did get dropped earlier in the year from them to only come back in later in the year so he could be another risk taht high

And Sharp could be too slow for AFL…

They are ALL at risk of being a bust.

I’d be happy if the picked him up, if you get a genuine mobile  ruck or plays like a ruck rover it’s something we haven’t really had. Our rucks have been able to compete at the bounce but no good on the ground or visa versa , CDT does both and plays forward .
Also for a ruck to show so much early is a winner , the often take years to develop.

I’m guessing by “we”do you mean Richmond FC. I would agree then that the coaches have a better idea than us on the background and attributes of the players. I’ve always been keen to give players a fair go but if Smith stays and we delist players who show more and regularly play seniors plenty here would want to know why.

CDT could be the next Max/Ben King and chop out in the ruck, from what I've read.

Honestly if the club wants to have a go with him I'd be keen.

Maybe if Sims keeps growing and developing he and CDT can share ruck/forward roles. Faull and Armstrong the main key forwards.

Grab another mid this year, hit a FA next year like Butters.
Butters, Taranto, Hopper, Lalor, Hotton, KMac2. Looks a bit better.

Riewoldt was drafted 20 odd years ago and formed the bookends of the dynasty with Rance.

If the club is high on CDT then I'd welcome him.

On paper hed compliment lalor smillie hotton very nicely  + good forward

Have to say I’m normally happy to back in the powers that be with the clubs drafting as they clearly know better than a punter like myself, but I’d be so disappointed if we take cdt

I actually think k we will trade if he's available. Can see a club giving up a lot for him. Our program for a long time has never been tailored to developing rucks. Even KPF we haven't really developed anyone apart from Jack since Richo. We've generally traded in Ruckman. Soldo, Simmons, Stafford, Nank. Id be surprised if we committing to developing a tier 1 ruck with a high pick.

Drafted  3× AFL premiership player, All-Australian etc. at pick 2   brad ottens.

Good point, since Otto so 20 odd years.
