Too much focus on pick 1 in the u17 draft and not enough on the other 6 picks still remaining. What chance we throw them our first rounder in order to get pick 2 or 3 in the draft. I know we are very interested in another player in the u17 draft (name escapes me now) but hes a tallish defender

There are only 4 picks in the draft and they can be used next year too (in a stronger draft). I would say perhaps only 1 will be used this year.

For some reason I read it as 4 this season and 3 next year. In that case I think we would stay clear

Read today that Andrew Krakouer whilst still under contract in 2012 is asking for an extension and a big pay rise, his manager said he is asking for $500k per annum going forward..... which is a tad unrealistic.

There are quite a few Pies out of contract next year that are demanding hefty pay increases and probably deserve them.

We will have to just wait and see what we will spend this year in trade week, if we don't land a big fish I'd suggest we have front loaded a heap of contracts to free up room for next year when free agency kicks in.

We have the money to spend in the future if we begin front loading, maybe targetting Krakour's and Wellingham's is possible.
