saying that, i wouldn't mind nick too much, but what about the price - some of our guys are surely due for a pay rise next year the way they've been playing |
money - no problem.
how to get a deal done is the hard part. me thinks a third or even fourth party would be necessary.
time will tell.

I think it's a place called Shangri La, Hal and I wish you'd go there with him, you over-rated pile of Microsoft rubbish. We all know you're The PC Hal and not the Mac Hal don't we? Hmmmm?
Please note Noddy: humour....I'm really good at it. |

Hey Zakal you forgot a couple more!
We could easily throw in Davies and Rusling.
Davies is just not good enough and Rusling is never gonna be fit.
That's four we can trade. |

Reckon they'd swap Reiwoldt if we gave them all four? heheh 
Stuff Reiwoldt anyway...we'd rather Dal Santo. Injuries aside, i dont really think we'll have too many Forward line troubles anytime soon. |

| why would he go back to brisbane, sure its his home, but every afl player wants to win a premiership, dont think that will happen at brisy in his life time, and if he only cares about the money, dont want him anywhere near collingwood anyway. |

The reason why I ask is that I believe that we have recruited very well in the past 3 seasons and I believe that either Dal Santo or Riewoldt would be worth a first round pick easily! Dal Santo is about 24 and Riewoldt 25 so if we are looking at a premiership window of 2008-2012, you would think they would substantially help that and would fit in perfectly!
I know there is a lot of rumour at the moment and most is probably bullcrap but you wonder as to what St Bulnda would accept for either one of those! |
Quality of this years draft is very good. Last year was a bumper year as we all know. Whilst the depth last year went to 60 -70 I think you will find this year it is more likely to be to 40-50.
Of course, champs have not been played yet but we have seen a fair bit of the NSW / QLD / Tas sides. SA will also provide a handful of players this year but I think the real quality will come from Vic / WA / QLD. QLD have got a number of very exciting kids.
In terms of player types you will this draft is plentiful with ruck prospects. I would be thinking at least 10 rucks will be taken this year and the#1 pick will almost certainly be Kruezer, an outstanding ruck prospect from VIC. Midfielders also feature prominently with a number of kids available who would have been taken last year if they could have been (eg Vespremi, Masten, Maric, Arrowsmith etc)
If people would like me to put together a list of the top 20-30 at this early stage i would be happy to.

Riewoldt is a super star and you'd throw anything to get him. However please people dont be fooled into thinking the Saints would take a bunch of our rejects.
If you were serious about Riewoldt you are talking 2 first round draft picks. Tarrant was a first round draft pick in a super draft year.....Riewoldt is twice the player Tarrant is. Id give up a first round pick in a heartbeat for him.

Yeah not sure I would be giving up two first round picks to get Nick.Terrific player but investing in kids is the way to go for a bit yet.
