I stumbled across this radio interview with Sheldrick from yesterday (so after he was drafted). He says that his manager believed that he (Sheldrick) was the Cats' prime target in moving forward to grab pick 23 in the draft. Given the Swans were also pretty keen on that pick, I daresay they were aware of the Cats' interest.Comment

Worth having a look at the excellent Future draft pick tracker stickied on the BF Trading, Drafting board. A handful of clubs have almost no picks next year, Gold Coast groaning under the weight of picksComment

Gold Coast has exploited its assistance package by converting the picks it didn't need into future picks. Even if all remaining assistance was removed, such as the right to list players from its zone without needing to draft them, they have set themselves up well for the future."Unbelievable!" -- Nick Davis leaves his mark on the 2005 semi finalComment

It's always the future for Gold Coast though - and if you look at what they've burned through in the past, it's hard to have confidence that the next future will be any different from the last few futures.Comment

I've enjoyed this a few times, especially their mum: Sydney Swans on Twitter: "It doesn't get much better than this!
The moment Corey Warner and his family found out he would be a Swan + scenes from his friends reacting at their school leavers celebrations down the south coast of WA!

+1 to the earlier recommendation to watch the WAFL Colts GF on YouTube. Angus looks brilliant - he's not just tough. He is smart in tight and creates an extra bit of space or time for himself. And is strong as an ox.
He also works really hard. A number of time he is the first to arrive from a clearance to the next phase of play.
He's not a speculative pick for me. Just not rated appropriately by many.Comment
