I have to say I am sick to death of hearing this. Fevola will in all likelihood kick 80 goals a year for the next 3-4 years. Pick 6 is a valuable as Fevola you say, you must be kidding. How can you say an undrafted 17 year old is better than a proven player, this year's Coleman Medallist...

Re: Bye Bye Knights I agree with this - a non-winner as a player and a coach. He got flicked on from Port Adelaide SANFl, no? I've had enough - 8 or more losses for the year where we haven't kicked more than 10 goals. It's not good enough. Attack attack attack Knights preaches - the fact...

Sorry to be a pedant (well, not really that sorry) but you'd probably want to check your punctuation before lambasting another's education. "If your 28" should, of course, read "If you're 28". The "your" in this instance is a contraction of "you are". As you were.

I can't find the rules anywhere on this site, are we able to create a sticky in this section with all the GC rules and other draft rules for the next 2 years?

that is the point of my rant though, they should have restrictions placed on them until they pay it back, like Melbourne and North have had with restrictions on their salary cap use. Effectively the AFL has subsidised the recruitment of Judd.

Why is there no outrage on the boards about this? It is high farce, an absolute disgrace. They have poached Judd, Warnock and Nick Stevens in the last few years offering them all inflated wages. They dropped games to get Gibbs and Kruezer. Now they aren't paying back their debts! How can they be...

also looking forward to our number 39 draft pick to get a run this year

Kudos to Adrian Dodoro and his merry men, really starting to silence their critics. There is no doubt we have drafted some very talented players over the past 3-4 years, it is now up to them to maximise their potential. Winderlich is a prime example, really coming into his own after 6 seasons...

I agree with this whole-heartedly - Lucas is an excpetional reader of the ball - what he lacks in pace he makes up for with this. And IMPORTANTLY, is a nice long and accurate kick which we no doubt need coming out of defence. I think Ryder is ready to start influencing games, we are not...

didn't Essendon finish 4th in the preseason cup?

Re: Will Essendon's Recruiting onwards 06... or father son selections

Re: Burgatron's Phantom Draft Due Today I agree with everything you are saying Whelan. You are not having a pot shot at Burgan. Burgan has his opinion, and you have your opinion, which I happen to agree with. To me, Lynch and Roughead are workmanlike footballers (both redheads?), they are...

As opposed to everyone basing their opinions on the thoughts of two or three posters? I said I was shown them. They only need to cursory glance. More interested in the kid's temperament / upbringing / goals in life / social smarts and football smarts than what size his hands are or how long...

The lawsuit!!! What law are you breaking??? Who is going to take you to court over "leaking" draft camp results?? Laughable it is. I have actually seen all the results so it doesn't phase me one bit - I just feel for the honest people on here who obviously have an interest in the draft but...

Who told you not to do this? Get over yourselves. Seriously, some people on this site make me laugh. What is the point of forums like this if like this if information like this is not made available? I mean, its not like clubs sign up to confidentiality agreements to receive them. The...

where are you getting these results from?

So you haveseen a list of the SA State Screening invites? I've looked everywhere

Does anyone have a list of all the State Screening invites for each State? Can only seem to find Victoria at the moment. Cheers

I I understand the concern over Hurley's pace, but I would be interested to match his Draft camp times against players like Lloyd, Fevola, Hall, Franklin etc just to see how he matches up. Does anyone know their times?? It is a bit difficult to make a judgement without a comparative...

He wasn't traded for two reasons, and two reasons only. 1. Geelong could not fit him in under their salary cap 2. Sydney withdrew their interest Other than that, no other clubs were interested. Facts.

or top 3...bookmark it

not bad am I. Won't last past pick 5, MARK MY WORDS.

Read what I wrote. That is what the clubs have been told. I said that it is probably being used as a ploy to inflate his contract with Sydney, but that is what he has bandied around. It is not bullshit, I don't make stuff up like most of the people on here.

That's because it's not public news yet. Essendon would baulk at the 4 year ask, as would most other clubs I'd suggest. Would be a lovely acquisition for Carlton.

Appointed Stride Management recently. Get up to speed. Some people...

The source is me. Do you really expect me to tell you exactly where I heard it from??? I agree with your last point. In all likelihood, it's probably just his manager spruiking around trying to inflate his existing contract. But this is what is being bandied around.

Has nominated Geelong, Hawthorn and Carlton as his preferences, wants 4 year deal at c. $500k per year Thoughts? Surely Geelong could not fit him in the salary cap, question whether the Hawks need his type. Carlton have their hands full with arranging the Warnock trade so may not have much...

I would not be surprised either. He will firm right up if he dominates the TAC GF this weekend.

oh, an in joke is it? Very clever. Sorry I didn't get it. Didn't realise you guys made up names abut 16 year old boys to get giggles.

Sounds like a character from Seinfeld??? Didn't George Costanza have a name like this?
