The Lottery - Pick 17

Re: The Lottery - Pick 17

I just hope we get the best player possible at pick 17. Im sure that any obvious Judd or Brown like player will be gone by then.

I think it is very difficult for anyone who has not watched 100+ elite junior games accross the bredth of Australia to really be able to make a call on this. I havent done this and therefore am self admittedly not in a position to comment one way or the other..

You're right.
Personally only commenting on the profiles and the experts judgements.

If everyone on the internet only commented on things they knew about, you could save the whole net on a floppy disc for safe keeping.

(for you kids out there, a floppy disc is a bit like a dvd, except thinner and bendy)

Some speculation floating about Hawthorn which links Nathan Ablett to the Bulldogs (BMac link from Geelong days I guess.) Wonder how good their mail is?

Theres two Nathan Abletts? Wow, what are the chances that a new draftee would have the same name as a washed up hack from geelong/Suns.

oh....

Wallace was connecting the Dots today on SEN.
Wonder if he's got Kent Kingsley'snumber?
He couldn't get a gig at GC, in a team full of kids!

Re: The Lottery - Pick 17

We have a good recruiting manager and the new coach should back him to make the right decisions. I hope both Fantasia and Jason McCartney are supporting Dalrymple.
If the club wanted Kerridge then they could have traded pick 17 to someone like Carlton's pick 22 during the trade period and then gone for Kerridge.
It sounds like someone we were hoping for and fully expected to be available at 17 now won't be there.

So there is discussion about it in the media as well? Would be a "courageous decision" to draft him - wouldn't that light the BF and WOOF boards up!

Re: The Lottery - Pick 17

Anyone with insider knowledge going to predict our selection at 17?
(can't believe we're excited about pick 17, the concessions to GWS are obscene)

[DOG GOD]

Re: The Lottery - Pick 17

I agree Douggy but it is what it is.

I predict Clay Smith coz no one else will want him in the first 17 picks

I PRAY for Adams though at 17
Murdoch or SFrost at 39
Dalgleish or Webster at 49
A good player at 57

Re: The Lottery - Pick 17

No disrespect meant but it just feels like B Mac is sticking his nose in where it doesn't belong. Surely the bloke has been too busy to have much of a look at these kids throughout the year and it should be a call for the recruiting team.

In saying that, jeez I love the sound of Kavanagh

He has some traits that don't sit well with some of the recruiters.

I would be massively surprised if we call his name out.

Re: The Lottery - Pick 17

Reporters that were inside during the lockout are saying that there were some surprises towards the end of the first round. Ominous.

Can you explain at all?

Clay Smith.
Any insight?
Apparently another inside mid


Surprised Talia is still there, though he was considered top 15?
