Always rated Ibbotson, very underrated and can still play - was bog v Footscray in r.23....don't have a problem with getting good players...
No doubt he is a better player than Houli, Grigg and Hunt but we need to aim higher if we are to try and catch the good sides. Lets not draft anymore average players, let's get rid of them and draft kids that could potentially become very good players. I'm  happy to have some misses in the draft in the search for better than the players mentioned above.

I agree but think he's better than average - would be our second best defender by some margin...

Hence why I said "by some margin"....he'd be a considerably better pick up than Chaplin was for a start...

He is average and that is being kind.
Pretty sure Rance and Grimes both have him covered. Plus I think we have some pretty decent kids coming through in McIntosh Short and Marcov that will be good hard defenders over the next few years.
We don't need to be trading for HBF types IMO.

It was stupid enough last year to trade away two second rounders for a HBF in Yarran.
To compound it by trading for the exact same type again shows Hartley, Richardson and Hardwick should go now.

Williams 23 yo  181cm  80kg HBF
We only have EIGHT for the two (HBF/Pocket) spots
Houli 28  181  83
Hunt  26  184  78
Yarran 26  !80 83
C Ellis  20  184  75
Drummond  21  182  80
Castagna  21  181 78
Butler  20  182  80
Short  20  177  72

Forget looking for:
Rucks - we have Hampson.
Key Forward - Riewoldt and Griffith for the two spots
Key Backs - Rance and Astbury for the two spots.
We have NO spares for the key spots but we are going to trade for ANOTHER small flanker to add to the eight we have?

Marley williams seems posed to move to Richmond in the trade period.

3rd or 4th [round pick] at most.

The Tigers continue to be linked to Collingwood's Marley Williams but AFL.com.au understands the out-of-contract defender is not a high priority for Richmond.
