    Great stuff GD. Ed Richards is a bit of a bolter who some now have top 20. Do you have a knock on him? I have heard a couple of whispers that we like him and he strikes me as a bit of a Dalrymple type (good character). Co uld be in contention for us at 16?

      Interesting list - the saints picking two talls at 7 & 8 is intriguing, most Saints fans seem certain they will only take mids as it's their biggest area of need.

      I still have the feeling we're going to be viewed as reaching for both our round 1 picks - thinking Constable and Murphy who are both rated by most as a little later than our picks suggest.

        I think Constable is a very good player, he's not quick but to me is like a more polished midfield version of Dunkley
        Murphy is another good prospect, the only concern is that he doesn't get a lot of the footy. Worthy of consideration

          Do you think Constables attributes would add to our group or more inside grunt that we already have a lot of?

            I think there is a bit more to him than just inside grunt and despite us having a bit of that already we should be looking for best available at both picks. At 190cm he's a bit bigger than most of our midfielders plus he can also play forward or back.

              I agree - he'd be a good option for us and with his height he can perhaps rotate forward and interchange with the Bont - both able to play multiple roles and cause headaches for opposition defensive coaches.
