excellent post!

probably the best thing I have seen re: draft.

After watching that, I reckon we would be mad not to jump on Leuenberger/Gibbs depending on who carlton picks.

Hill/Leuenberger, I reckon we would have the best ruck combination in the comp in 2 years. That would be awesome.

Ryder/Leuenberger would be even better.

I reckon Ryder and Laycock will be very good in the future, so no point using our first pick on a ruckman - cover our real needs. ie KP defender.

Our real need is CLASS. Then a Key defender. We can play Lucus down back, but we have no real class in the midfield to speak of without a massive improvement from Dyson and Winderlich.

As we found out last year, we cant rely on Campo and Hird to provide all our deliveries to our forward 50 and as such should take Gibbs or Selwood IMO.

If we were to get Selwwod who sounds like injuries have already effected his status (think that prick from WC) then what chance down the track we could entice the others across for a Daniher like dynasty??? Wishful thinking but worth looking into.
