Ayce Cordy

Re: Ayce Cordy

We keep having to go back to the P word I'm afraid. Between his school footy last season and the occasional game for the Falcons and then a couple for Vic Country most of us haven't seen anywhere near enough to make a strong call. I do know that Chris Grant thought he was a talent and the Bulldog recruiters were talking about him last year as well as a terrific talent and they haven't changed their views this season. Given his height and build you can only select him as a long term project and there will be no return for a couple of seasons. I'd love to be able to tell you he is a can't miss prospect but I have some reservations mainly about how long it will take for him to fill out.
Draft camp might provide some more answers.

Thanks Gaz, i thought that would be the case. But if Chris is talking him up, i would have thought he would know an average KPP forward as we provided him with plenty in the forward line over his career. Any wonder he went to CHB.

I should say i'm not against getting him, just why he is a top 14 pick.

Now to draft camp as you say.

I'd like to see us offer pick 14 to St. Kilda for Kossie well before draft time.

Just to put some doubt in the minds of a few recruiters.

SS,

That could be a good move. If we traded Ray out West for an exchange of second and third rounders, if no-one wanted Ayce inside the top 20 we could snap him up pick 19 or so.

Interesting move.

I like your thinking.

I know what you mean but doesn't the FS selections have to be finalised before the trade period discussions? We would just need someone from the media to float the idea that the deal was as good as done and likely to go through on day one of the trade period.

The selections for F/S take place before trade week.

Good plan SS.

42-C-3, Father-son bidding is before trade week so we wouldn't be able to get another draft pick to use on Cordy.

F/S is done before trade time, that's my point.

Let it be known that we really want an established, decent forward and we're prepared to pay for him.

Now, who's really ready to risk a first rounder on a stick who's already had a busted shoulder?

Of course there's nothing to make us go through with it and actually trade our first rounder, is there?

Don't know what I was thinking...

But still, i like your thinking.

I suppose if you lead someome to think you will deal with them & subsequently renege on that deal, you would soon get a name as someone not to deal with in future.

That's why Clayton's moving up North next year
