Greater Western Sydney will take into account once more buying and selling as much as the highest of the AFL draft, a 12 months on from touchdown key ahead prospect Aaron Cadman with the No.1 decide.
Giants coach Adam Kingsley stated the membership could be “foolish” to not examine packaging their two first-round picks in a bid to take extremely touted teenager Harley Reid, who seems a lock to go at No.1.
GWS’s two early picks – presently slated at No.9 and No.12 – would most likely should be packaged with further capital to pry the highest choice from a membership on the lookout for a number of high-end skills fairly than one gun, probably an possibility for a rebuliding outfit resembling West Coast.
The Giants gave up No.3, No.12 and a future second-round decide so as to add Cadman final low season, and Kingsley stated the membership would discover doing one thing related this 12 months.
“We’ll consider all options,” he stated.
“We’d be foolish not to. But in terms of decision making, we’re far away from doing that.”
Kingsley stated he had no regrets in regards to the outlay to get Cadman, with the 19-year-old having performed 11 video games for six targets in his maiden marketing campaign.
“I’ve been rapt with Aaron,” he stated.
“When you look at Cadman in his first year, if you’re looking purely at disposals and goals, maybe you’re a little bit short.
“But should you’re taking a look at competing, follow-up tackles from a key ahead in his first 12 months, he is been excellent.
“In years to come, we’ll look back and go ‘We saw glimpses of the player that he was becoming and we didn’t necessarily recognise it at the time’.”
The Giants seem like a workforce on the up, even with out one other prodigious expertise, having reeled off six-straight wins to shoot into the AFL’s prime eight forward of the most important interval of their first marketing campaign below Kingsley.
They head to Ballarat on Saturday to face the Western Bulldogs (fifth), earlier than a derby in opposition to Sydney (twelfth) and a visit to Port Adelaide (second) in what Kingsley admitted appeared an early transition to ‘finals mode’.
“Playing teams around us all fighting for the same positions, the final positions in that top eight, and everything’s possible still,” he stated.
“Aside from Port Adelaide, who are well above us, we play teams all around us, so every game is really important.
“It is sort of a finals recreation this week significantly, in opposition to the Bulldogs. Not that we construct it up any greater than the rest.
“We prepare the same way, but you understand the importance of each game no doubt.”
