Predict who we will draft

Re: Predict who we will draft

Good post above.

I guess if we feel that Stevens will play more of his football on a flank, then there's room for Wines. However, I still think it would be too many of the same type. Wines will be a very good player and possibly captain material, but our list is desperate for skill, creativity and pace.

Food for thought:
- How would posters feel if we picked up the following:
5: Wines
6: Stringer
22: Simpson

Personally I would be happy with Wines & Stringer TBB. Don't know a lot about Simpson to give an opinion.

Re: Predict who we will draft

If your looking at safe bets, i would say Wines is the obvious one.
The others all have some doubts, whether it be injury or body types.

So picking a safe bet in Wines and a risky bet in Menzel would compliment each other nicely.

Exactly.

Exactly.

Thirded - we need best available with these picks. That's probably Wines/Menzel if the Hun have their facts right.

What if it goes:

Whitfield
O'Rourke
Menzel
Toumpas

Wines, Mayes? Wines, McCrae?

Still very solid outcomes. Going to get two very good players.

I think Macrae might be more probable which i wouldnt mind. He is similar to Menzel and would be a good get. Has a basketball background which has helped his decision-making and is similar in style to Pendulbury who also had a bball background.

I really have no idea who the hell we will pick to be perfectly honest, but I know one thing, I'm getting so sick of waiting! Everyone has a theory or a phantom draft or supposed inside info and IT'S DOING MY HEAD IN

Wines and McCrae, still get the inside outside combo, with McCrae being a bit of a lottery much like Menzel, but more so on how he'll fair rather than injury concerns?

Re: Predict who we will draft

I don't know whether I'm excited or scared about the fact that we really have no idea who we will be picking up at 5 & 6.

Maybe a bit of both..

Re: Predict who we will draft

If we draft Wines you'd think we'd draft Menzel with him

That better be because of injury concerns because Menzel is reportedly a much better talent. I would really hate to see Menzel become a superstar knowing we passed on him as we weren't willing to take the risk...but then there is always the chance he wont make it onto the park in most seasons....DAM I JUST WANT THIS DRAFT DONE. I HATE THE UNCERTAINTY!
