    Unfortunately, if we were to finish last (which we won't), there doesn't seem to be a Nick Riewoldt available. Just a whole bunch of Kosies! To be honest, from the bit of underage footy I've seen, Christian Petracca looks the standout. If we were to have the number one pick, I'd be inclined to engineer a trade for picks 6+7, or something like that. Alternatively, trade for a Patton and late first round pick. If Jeremy Cameron is really available, just offer pick 1 for him.
    Great post, this lateral thinking what I was hoping for as I like to think. I think should we have pick 1 we need to be open to how to get the most value, it's a ballsy move could be career defining or career ending. If Patton or Cameron are gettable, then I thinks it's worth thinking of that option over the remainder of the year. However, let's say a Carlton makes a stupid offer to get Patton or Cameron and the player agrees. Could we wedge ourselves in, threaten to take the player in the PSD and put pick 1 on the table in a triangle deal. Something like Patton to Carlton, pick 1 and 27 to GWS, dogs get picks 9, 20 & Tomlinson & Garlett. Is that enough value for a Wright or Petracca??

Just my preference. Who knows we might get surprise a few wins in the second half of the season which will put a different slant on a lot of poster's thoughts.
            Start of a few I hope.

              That's the plan Chef, you can all send me love.

              I agree let's enjoy it, there is more that unites us than divides us and unity after a win is a good feeling for everyone.

                          Here is I was about to start the Dan Lonergan Appreciation Society. Oh well, I'm banned from doing so.

                          I'll just rely on the positive threads I've started, I'm noticing people aren't posting much in them...
