Especially when you add a few new players, including a couple of A graders - presently not at the Club - to that list (but in that age bracket, or thereabouts).
Next year we may add B. Silvagni (key forward) and trade for Gaff, Shiel etc.
Noting both Kelly and Shiel contracted to the end of 2019, but with one year left, and if GWS stumbles again....these type of blokes might be keen to move sooner than later.
Would I swap our first draft pick in 2018 for Shiel? In a heartbeat.....a proven high quality performer versus a kid who may or not be something in years tpo come (or SOS may split the #1 or #2 pick into two lower first round picks and then throw in one of our 2nd round picks as well for Shiel?)
Gaff will simply be a matter of $ - of which we have plenty....
2018 is a write off - we all accept that now.
Even by 2019, the young lads will be approaching the 50-75 game bracket - and hopefully we'll get an even break with respect to injuries...
Ok, so how many goals will B. Silvagni kick next year ?
Let’s go BIG !
