Get this done Tiges....

They want a 1st rounder for Hickey.

And the Crows wanted a heap more too...
A heap more for who?

Tippet
Not sure how you can use that as an example, Tippett is yet to be traded.  :P

Either way, Tippett wants to go to Sydney, and Sydney's 1st pick in the draft is #22, therefore they cannot offer anything better. If the crows don't trade they lose him for nothing.

Our first pick is #9, GC would demand that from us, as our picks after that would be pipped by other clubs (#29 and #31).

So the situations aren't really comparible.  :thumbsup

Tippetts in the bag.. :thumbsup

If he nominated us we could price the Saints out of it or trade off pick 29 and a player, we could at least get amongst it...make the others pay over the top.

I don't know do bloody something we need a ruckman.. :lol

WAT do you believe they don't have a plan re: back up ruckman

I would be amazed if they go into Round 1 with derickx as the only back up

they have someone else in mind i just dont know who

Not sure what I believe, we went all year last year without a backup, perhaps they think we can do it again...

The only thing I can think is that they are looking at a mature age recruit form one of the State leagues. Failing that I have no idea what they are up to....decent/potential rucks are running low now though.

And you????

wasnt graham the best performed ruckman in the VFL? if they have anyone in mind they would most likely be from WA or SA

Wouldnt be surprised to see Browne on the rookie list again
“For My thoughts are not your thoughts,
Nor are your ways my ways,” says the Lord.
 
“For as the heavens are higher than the earth,
So are my ways higher than your ways,
And my thoughts than your thoughts."

Draft a project ruck with a late pick and rookie an insurance prospect. I'm not a fan of 4 or 5 ruck types on the senior list. The ruck position is one of the safest positions for the number one, then a ready to go back up if the main one goes down. Failing that and the back up gets injured you can just put one of them on LTIL and promote the rookie or use the snot nose. Even Vickery could fill in until the one of them gets back from injury. Any more rucks and it starts to bog down the list with dead weight. Failing that and they all go down, well you're in the poo anyway.

If they dont a pluck a mature bodied big bloke in the ND you should start preparing for it
