More sense than a lot of the pundits who failed to recognise there wasn't a top tier mid available at our picks and we simply drafted best available rather than reaching.

Excuse the ignorance, but who is this guy.
Made a lot of sense regarding our draft. Couldn’t be bothered watching the rest.

And maybe that’s why they did it.
Probably realise he’s gone.

But hang on, how do you get a compo right after your first pick if you don’t have one?

Maybe Richmond get the compo as well

You do get that compo pick, at the same spot where your pick would have landed

Na, think they should lose it. Or after their second pick
They’ve had far too many freebies already!

LFG

Finding out LDU was a Hawks supporter growing up makes me not as bullish getting him too the saints. Seems like they are going after Hawk supporters to sell them the dream, Mitchell being the one selling you the dream makes it even more exciting. I think over the next couple of years Mitchell is going to be snaping up players through trade and free agency. Also a thought I unfortunately have with Tauru, as i have no doubt Mitchell will be selling him the dream of being Sicely's replacement.

Since the end of the season. Mitchell has sent players and coaches into elite sporting organizations across the globe. This is on top of Mitchell already being mentored by Ange Postecoglou. Which is why I think a lot of people are sleeping on the Hawks.

They way they play football in how they carry themselves on the field is the polar opposite to us. It will be interesting to see what method prevails.

So at our Best & Fairest our Prez blasts the AFL for his words on Father Sons and Academy picks system and everybody called us sooks and whingers
After the Ashcroft pick last night all these people on social media complaining about the system.
Bunch of hypocrites

Our president was right. The problem is he's the president of St Kilda

Do the Hawks midfield need more guns though? I'd say they're sorted frankly. Salary cap may be an issue too.

I mean, it wouldn't be the WORST outcome for North if they finished bottom 4 and got band 1 compo for LDU. If there's a decent KPP they can trade the pick for or use in the draft it would probably be an overall improvement of their list balance. Wardlaw, Simpkin, McKercher, FOS, Powell, Sheezel and they just traded in Parker who they'll get for a few seasons.

Pick 2-5 compo for LDU hypothetically, they could trade for a decent key forward or key defender or draft a top tall. They also traded out their 1st round pick for next year so a compo pick wouldn't be a bad option for them.

Or it might be if they hadn't flung away their first rounder like a monkey at the zoo.

AFL club St Kilda make a move for Meath U20 star Armstrong

The wing-back was Man of the Match in the Leinster U20 final as Meath bridged a 23-year gap earlier this year.

Spot on.
