I don't get that swap.

Why would the Cats go down a spot for only 31.

I assume they didn't want Caddy.

Seems that way. Perhaps there could be another trade of picks.

Very happy with Sanders, future mid and some insurance if Smith does leave.

Forget insurance. Sanders hits targets!

Their picks coming in were:
8, 25, 70, 75, 79, 81, 85

I assume they wanted another pick before the 4th/5th rounds

Dogs socials calling him Colonel?

I hope that?s not in reference to a fast food company/sponsor that?s not ours, being McDonalds?

Very happy with Sanders. I think Watson probably fit our immediate needs a bit better, but Sanders screams quality and is perhaps a more bankable top ten pick. Very impressed with his decision making and vision in particular. Hopefully he can make an impact at AFL level soon.

Bit of trivia: Sanders is the 5th Larke Medallist that we've drafted over the years, who are the other four?

Southern and Power spring to mind

Is Sanders the first Larke Medal winner drafted by a Larke Medal winner?

Yep that's surely a first! Sam's just larking about with this pick.

I've checked the list of Larke medal winners and it's an eclectic bunch for winners who have played with us outside of who already has been mentioned.

Enter the Sandman

Brisbane play a particular song (can't remember what) that he likes every time Charlie Cameron kicks a goal.

Surely we get to play 'Enter Sandman' when the Sandman goals!

It's take me home country road John Denver I believe.
My feeling is it should end up where he did.

I know Andrew Hooper won a Larke Medal because my tiny brain couldn’t understand how we got the best underage player in the pool in the second round of the rookie draft.

From an in-law of his, apparently his appearance upon arrival at the first training session of 2011's preseason meant that Eade couldn't even find words to spray him with. He was speechless - relative to his usual creativity.
