Allen is an interesting pick. Tall, quick and seems to have some composure in midfield contests.

If they develop we could have McInnes and Allen as 194cm mid/forwards albeit different types of mid.

McCluggage is a poor man's Allan.

 

[Scodog10]

Way to piss on our celebratory campfire.

You pipped my ninja edit. I’m not not a fan of Allan BTW it’s just the context. I’m mostly here to read posts from people who were sucked in by the Ryan hype train. I’ll be waiting a while…

 

[Jekyll and Hyde]

I’ll admit, I have not watched 5 mins of any TAC cup game. I do not know any of the draftees, their games, their stories….Nothing.
But for some reason, I’m happy with our selection so far.

We picked up a few boys to help with transition, so the young fellows aren’t getting smashed when introduced - McStay, Mitchell, Lipinski, Kreuger, Dean, Frampton etc.

 

[No SPIN]

Wouldn't mind Max Gruzewski or Mitch Szybkowski..

Sound like Yugoslavian Mafia.
Hard Kents

More likely to be of Polish heritage.

 

[left at home]

Really weird being on here without anyone melting

Just wait, there’s still tomorrow

I don't really understand all the hate for Ryan.

His highlights package shown in the snippet of the Hine interview linked below look okay.

Appears we shall end up with two of Hayes, Cowan, Hustwaite, Barnett, Burgeil and Keeler.

Would be a very good draft for the Pies.

Won't Take Hustwaite after taking Allan

 

[FIGJAM]

Same where’s FIGJAM to rant about Hine not following the narrative

Why have a cheap ass melt when you can have a delicious slider?!

We just consider Hayes, Cowan, Hustwaite, Barnett, Burgeil and Keeler have more upside.

I be happy to take him in the 2nd Round

How much “okay” would you like to buy with a first round pick?

 

[Mick F]

Good point.

 

[Scodog10]

Why have a cheap ass melt when you can have a delicious slider?!

And with that Hine became a good recruiter again

 

[JOELY]

You guys really think you escaped a melt? Just wait till' tomorrow night!

Hine usually takes best available so I wouldnt totally count it out.

 

[swoop42]

Some people didn't just have a problem with taking him in the first round they don't want him altogether.

 

[KJpie]

So far so good.

Hayes, George, Ryan, Cowan, Keeler all still out there.

Hard to imagine we don't get one of them with our next pick, if we get two of them I'll be extremely pleased

Like it, plus Barnett, Clarke, Hotton, Gruzewski, & Burgiel.
We will end up with 2 of these players

If they develop we could have McInnes and Allan as 194cm mid/forwards albeit different types of mid.

Allan has grown 20cm in the last 2 years, so it's possible he hasn't stopped yet.
He could end up a 200cm+ midfielder....

 

[Scodog10]

I’m not sure we need tweets shared from complete randoms that can’t spell the word son correctly…

 

[Fat Jesus]

Plus 20kg in those same 2 years.

 

[FIGJAM]

Promising first pick who is big, keeps his feet and attacks the goal.

Get me a KPD and ruck and then Dekka can pick all of the outside Pouter-esque flankers he wants!

 

[unplugged]

I'd be melting if Weddle was there and we passed him for some spud. But I can't melt when Hawthorn traded (a fair bit, mind you) to get him ahead of us.
