Rudie, can we leave your sexual fantasies out of this?

Richards to port pick 37
Noble +37 to Suns for pick 12
Keep f1 for next year for McGuane or whoever
Draft day get a KPF for 12
Keep it simple
If we can get something for Reef AJ or Krueger trade them
Markov is needed if Noble goes
Macrae may come good

I like this simple approach but reckon the Suns might want more points than just 37.

I’m keeping McInnes to continue his late vfl intercept defender role but happy for Macrae to trade if it gives him a chance

We're apparantley keen on Bo Allan from WA.

Twomey has him at #12 in his rankings.

Re: Bo Allan - watching in WAFL grand final he seems to be an outside mid who isn't working himself into the game when the ball isn't fed to him.

Just my first impressions though and he's young.

Yeah, I watched some highlight package and thought wow. This was him playing a defensive flank / intercepting role. Really nice reading of the play and a great kick for picking the right option (when he had time). Then I watched another video of him playing on-ball and I just found him too scrappy and panicky with his disposal. In the end the only reason I'd want to spend a top draft pick on him would be because he's apparently got a great work ethic and captaincy qualities, not because I think he'll make it as a midfield gun.

I'm not keeping next year's F1 to use in a F/S trade...

So the defensive flank option might work for him if he uses the ball well. Possibly replace Noble?

[SLORT]

^I actually see hints of Sicily or Stewart. I know that's a big call but yeah, physical, good in the air, driven to lead. Lots to like.

^A Noble replacement is MSD or a late pick it certainly is not pick 12

On the small amount I have seen which was in a state league grand final he's not worth pick 12. Based on what SLORT had seen he's definitely worth picking up if possible.

Also, based on SLORT's analysis he is likely to be better than Noble. I agree.

You are assuming Mcguane will be a target next year he might do an ACL thus lowering his value or he gets run over by the proverbial bus
We can always trade it next year for points
Happy to trade it for a KPF not for a questionable mid
