Wouldn't surprise if the hawks or Essendon took him with there first pick and we just miss out.
Mate, i will spew a river if he gets taken prior to our eventual 2nd round pick at 25-30, after this clustercluck of a stand-off with those kunts at Brisbane, and about to pay overs for Greenwood too.
This has a Pavlich-esque debacle written all over it, as far as long term consequences go...

I would really like to see us somehow get a pick in the early 20s to give us a shot at him, but I can't see the club doing it.

I would strongly consider him if he's still available at pick 30.

I think he'll be drafted in either the late first round or early second round part of the draft.

West Cost considering him with pick 11 apparently.

No chance of being available at pick 30 and pick 5's probably too high based on 1 game in 2014.

If Laverde is taken by GWS at pick 4, then I would be happy for us to use pick 5 on Nakia Cockatoo. He oozes class and is very strongly built, with pace and incredible evasive skills. He will be a star.

I'm sure he will be a star but how long before he wants to go home?

So are we only drafting Victorians now? That certainly limits our options.

Cockatoo would be a major risk at 5 given his limited exposure. Can't see it happening with no shortage of options.
Well done boys!
