Yeah that was my first thought Daz. Getting new talent at the expense of much the same existing talent seems spurious to me
Don't confuse your current path with your final destination. Just because it's dark and stormy now doesn't meant that you aren't headed for glorious sunshine!

Cox could then be picked up with either our first or second selection depending on any interest in another player or not. Of course, Cox is always a chance to go elsewhere but if we were to keep him hanging on that long, it only suggests we were a bit non committal towards him anyway.
Also, does anyone have definitive info on Madgens contract status. I’m reading conflicting info and I’m inclined to think he has an offer in front of him which he is yet to make a decision on. If so, he’s cutting it pretty fine to advise the club of his decision.
If what you say unfolds then I think we should keep two open spots for the preseason draft. I still think we can pick up a very good player with our second selection in the preseason draft.
Ryan Garthwaite has been delisted by the Tigers. I reckon Collingwood should be all over him with the McCrae and Leppitsch connection. Need to find a fullback and plan for Rougheads successor.

He is awful. A ball drop that defies physics
The ball drop, now I know who he is, no thank you.
Also, we should try & develop Kelly and even Ruscoe, they are all the same weight and height.
If we feel we need to go big then is Brander still available?
