      Would you swap a 1st round draft pick for a rising star ?

        seems to be a little out of favour with the current coach from what i've heard could possibly be got for a 2nd rounder and a player!

          Probably not, but if he wants to come to Sydney then probably a second round pick. Its only going to work if they WANT to come. He is a bright young man and that's a plus.

          Do you think we have any influence at all in what the recruiting wallas do?

              IF I was looking to take someone from PA I would look at Salopek first.He's a ball magnet and is consistant.He has definately been a victim of the unrest at his club.

                Meantime, back here in the real world:

                ?We?ll get a couple of quality kids in and we?ll have six, seven or eight spots at the end of the year for some younger players.

                  At this stage it will be Playfair for injury reasons and Brabazon.

                  Anymore draft choices or rookie elavations past 7 or 8 would just be a waste.

                    I havn't seen a lot of him play but from the sounds of it Danyle Pearce seems ideal; lightning quick, good skills and only 23. He sounds like exactly what we need. A second rounder would be a steal for a former rising star at the right age to take the next step into an elite midfielder.

                      Agree that these two will (and should be) be the two to go. Playfair should go for injury reasons, as well as ability reasons.

                          If it is going to be a second rounder it would need to be Melbourne's at 18th to have any chance of making the deal happen. I can't see us having anyone of interest to trade to Melbourne for this pick considering where they are at present.

                          Maybe Jolly, which is not going to happen.

                            Ay first I thought, downhill skier, typical Port player. But Pierce infused with the bloods culture is one hell of a player. As long as he does not cost too much and passes the NDH test, definitely worth a look.

                              Oohh goodee. Now listen Andrew, it seems the concensus of opinion among us armchair coaches is that Danyle Pearce is a wanted man. So see what you can do for us. Thanks.

                                Pearce is one if not the most unaccountable player in the comp.
                                He rakes up possesions however he doe's not man up and regulary his opponent makes Port hurt
                                No hope in Syd culture
                                cheers
