So you think we are targeting 3 mids and 1 kpf with our first 4 picks? Any chance we go for 2 mids and 2 key position players?

We talk a lot about the ability of players here as that’s all we can see
However I wonder how much clubs take into account about the right fit or character for their footy club

Plays a big part, numerous clubs on draft night have mentioned it

Yes it's a midfielder heavy draft in terms of quality.....personally I'd take Tauru over Armstrong & Faull....played KPD predominately but moved forward in recent games with promising results, looks to have the highest ceiling and attacks the ball & the contest harder than the other two......someone like Simms, Gerryn, O'Farrell, Nichols or maybe even Matt Whitlock should still be available later on...next year's draft supposed to be better for KPF's anyway with the likes of Ludowyke, AH-Mu (Melb NGA but word is rules will be reviewed again) Duff-Tytler...... :shh

Has been touted as a potential #1 at various stages - recent injuries might see him slide - but I'd say anywhere from 2 to 10 - assuming the trades go as predicted, reckon we'll be hoping he lasts until 6 unless we somehow get Norf's pick 2 as well as 3 from WC....personally I'd take him before Smith and definitely before Slow Coach Clangerford...... :shh

Better yet, make them match our bid then ask for their 1st pick in exchange for some of our crap ones so they get the points and we get their 1st rounder.

He does, but a bit Ben Hobbs like instead of a Dusty which everyone is saying.

I'm a big fan of Shanahan for KF. But you can't go past Armstrong.
