    If you're referring to the mock draft, then it's probably a touch early to go for pure needs when a talent like Butler is still on the board.

        Is Clancy Snell related to the KPD Patrick Snell already on our list? I haven't heard it mentioned so assume it's just coincidence but a more enduring version of the Fabulous Flying McCartin Brothers would be nice .....
        My opinion is objective truth in its purest form

            No. Clancy has Essendon relatives

                The latest Cal Twomey form guide.

                Cal Twomey's Phantom Form Guide: Top draft prospects' October ranking - https://www.afl.com.au/news/1633149

                In that scenario, we bid on Matthews at 8 and take Harris at 9. Works for me.

                    cals latest is not a PHANTOM draft , its a ranking of ratings of the prospects, Agree if actual draft ends that way. Tommy_wolfs PHANTOM has us taking Butler a mid at 9 (9 because of the matching taking place higher.) Harris is taken by Melbourneat 6and dever by richmond at 8, thats why my comment to him that clancy Snell a strong key defender who is taken later in his phantom would be a better bet for us.

                        With their early picks, the Swans notoriously go best available (in their view, which may have been an issue under Beatson at the end). But Keane still takes that approach.
