Game Day 2014 National Draft

[Stronzo]

In bond we thrush.

 

[Arkhitect]

Joshua DeLucia Cardillo

 

[yakka man]

So it seems pace was the main objective.

 

[jackkkkk]

Joshua DeLucia Cardillo has a very impressive highlights package

 

[Righteo]

At least we don't have to hear any whinging about not selecting WA players this time, mostly limited to no-KPP whinging.

 

[Nickos66]

Anyone know if/where Reece McKenzie was drafted?

Richmond - pick 77.

 

[E Shed]

Just had a look at DeLuca's highlights reel. Really knows where the goals are. Reminds me just fractionally of Crozier. Slightly awkward ball drop but can really roost it.

 

[Bateman]

Joshua DeLucia Cardillo

Can't believe we got the Quadrella, 4 small blokes!
Quality KPD's available at our first pick and we let them all go, very very,disappointed!

The only player I've seen a bunch of times and I always thought he'd make a good AFL player however I think he could probably have been taken in the RD.

 

[theGav56]

I love our club. Masters of the unpredictable. Anyway, I see 4 very exciting players.

 

[BeepTest]

I'm surprised Richmond didn't spend five minutes discussing that pass

 

[strobe00]

I don't hate this but surely we're set for small/medium forwards now?

Could be that they see a chance for him to move into the midfield at some point in the future.

Sounds like "best available" was employed for each of the rounds, rather than going for the obvious KPP "needs".

 

[yakka man]

The club always delivers on draft day... the unexpected.

 

[gungho]

congratulations to Bondy for being like michael J fox and accurately predicting the future of football. Key position players will all be irrelevant in 5 years.


p.s. I might be joking.

 

[beetz]

Not sure how to feel to be honest.

 

[ilikepotatoes]

Deluca sounds like a good pick up. Got a mate who knows him and reckons he's pretty good.

 

[strobe00]

I love our club. Masters of the unpredictable. Anyway, I see 4 very exciting players.

The really weird thing is that I'd heard of the first three. Our recruiters must be slipping...

 

[yakka man]

Elite according to his write up

I hope so. But on the draft countdown they said the opposite.

 

[Tbonefreo]

Likes long walks in the park from what I've heard.

Not much of a jogger then?

 

[Righteo]

Yep

All you can really get from it is that the coaches have a huge amount of confidence in Apeness/Taberner/Pearce/Hannath, they have a huge amount of confidence in snaring quality talls in the RD or both.

 

[Eski3]

Ah yes, the post draft meltdowns. One of the highlights of draft day

 

[Eski3]

Anyone want to make any outlandish and quotable calls about who's going to be delisted in 3 years?

 

[rodney hoo]

I love our club. Masters of the unpredictable. Anyway, I see 4 very exciting players.

Yep my feelings as well, there 18 year olds its a judgement made over watching and interviewing over 12 to 24 months. We hope they will all be superstars but that will never happen, 50% success would be good.

 

[Jack_the_Ninja]

Not sure how to feel to be honest.

Well at least your not feeling crap like most of us are ! good luck with Weller he was my pick and once again we blew it.

Clearly not MacPharlin or Pavlich.
