        It's a go to in my job as well.

        We used to have a guy they called "Two dicks", because there was no way a guy with just one dick could stuff up as much as he did.

            I did hear today that due to the increased wages due to the collective bargaining that it would less likely that the Roos get pick 3 for McKay if the offer around $700-$800K is correct.

            Im guessing the AFL might still manufacture a top end compo pick but would prefer that to be linked for Sanders than say just pick 2 and 3. It's really interesting if we are going to trade up to pick 4 then going to need to understand the machinations beforehand, you really wanna know our target will be there before spending up.

            Im still not sure I can see Mckercher lasting to pick 4 if we trade up for it, I reckon WCE and North would be very keen on him but in saying that North do need to add forwards to the mix they have been drafting a lot of mids.

              Why oh why did I think I would get away with that?

              Maybe the nickname is appropriate.

                      FAMOUS FOOTY NAME EMERGES AS DRAFT CHANCE

                      THE SON of former Western Bulldogs chief executive Dennis Galimberti has made a late impression on scouts to push his draft stocks.

                      Billy McGee-Galimberti has been a regular member of the Sandringham Dragons' line-up this season but played perhaps the game of his campaign on Sunday in the Coates Talent League elimination final against the Northern Knights.

                      The 180cm prospect gathered 28 disposals, 10 marks and six rebound-50s as he continues to show some of his dash from defence.

                      A good kick of the ball, McGee-Galimberti has also used his speed to take the game on and catch the eye.

                      McGee-Galimberti has played 11 games for the Dragons this season averaging 18 disposals, while also playing at school level for St Kevin's College in Melbourne.

                      His father was a long-serving chief executive of Footscray between 1986 and 1996, playing a pivotal role in the Dogs avoiding a merger with Fitzroy. ? Callum Twomey

                        I cant predict how the draft pans out but most phantoms I read have him at 4 so we might miss him. Watson a great back up though.

                          I can't see any way McKercher gets to us. Watson is the best we can hope for. I'd have preferred a mid though.

                            Isn't he predicted to go 4? The pick we are getting.

                              No love for Sanders if he's not tied to North?

                                He's ranged between 2 and 4. Pick 4 will most likely be pick 6 though after North comp and gc academy pick. I guess it ultimately comes down to whether north take him. Hawks are keen on Duursma but if McKercher is there they might pounce. I hope north somehow land Reid. It might sway them taking another mid where they're already loaded.
