Regarding draft picks it makes no difference whether we beat North or not??
Either way we get pics 2 and 3.

Safest thing to do is lose, but yes it makes no difference

David Zita on Fox Footy said Richmond is planning to take their first two picks to the draft. Currently 2 & 3 although they may be pushed back one spot to 3 & 4 if the Eagles get first bank compo for Allen.

So who are WC picking at 1&2 (can't believe they will get 2 for injury prone Allan) but looks likely a self fulfilling prophecy. 
My guess is Sharp & Duursma
Leaving us with Tytler & Lindsay probably but I agree we need the best pure ball winning mids like Grjl, NHH or Greeves

Isn’t Grjl a half back? That’s where he’s been playing in our vfl side. Hopefully WC take CTD so he doesn’t slide to us.

Not 100% but talk is he's a mid

I reckon he's doing a Daniher.

Will be fit when he moves.

I think we need 2 quick mids, but tbh If CDT is available I also think we need ruck options other than Sims.

Whatever happens, we are still guaranteed to get two gun players provided the club doesn't royally stuff up.

Any combination of CDT, Duuuuuuurzma, Sharp, Marsh, Lindsay etc.

I'm quite keen on CDT as a ruck/forward. Can see him and Sims sharing the roles longer term.

Midfield would have to be made up of '26 P3, Lalor, Smillie, Hotton, KMac2 (yep I like him), then some chumps like Taranto, Hopper, Ross, Dow etc. Heck target a FA like Butters and we have a stew cooking.


Could be Sims/CDT ruck/forward.
Armstrong/Faull key forwards.

Backline of Balta, Miller, Young.

Plenty to be excited about.

Duursma could be a real player imo. I’ve really warmed up to him after vfl performances. Still plenty of talent left for us.

Thank Grlj is a must, then one of cumming or NHH

Well, one of those is a Carlton academy player, so they will have a say you would think

at this stage they won’t have the draft capital to snag him, see what happens though
