Went at pick 40 in the same (weak) draft that we took Cripps at 26.
Also Jack Darling at 26 (but he wasn't a realistic option), Jeremy Howe at 33 and George Horlin-Smith at 37 and Tom McDonald at 53.

Oh got ya..
I thought you must have been hinting at St.Kilda let him slip from them or something being a Stingrays boy.
Which essentially we did, but we obviously rated Cripps higher at the time.
I agree with Barrels... He actually needs to trim down moreso than put on muscle. He weighs 92-94kg & he's only 186cm.... When he was a 16-17 year old he weighed 98kg
He should be losing some weight to take stress off his knees (ACL) & hips (he's had hip issues in the past too - understandable when you're 16-17 yrs old playing a lot of footy & weighing nearly 100kgs)
I have no doubts he'll be a gun, but more than happy to have a Plugger/Jonno Brown hybrid at full forward for the next 15 years

Seriously.. how the heck did Parker slide to pick 40?! Did they think he had low potential because of his lack of pace or something? Baffling. Best of the Swans mids IMO.
Fingers crossed Hannebery's big deal will squeeze Parker out, to us of course
Are there any really quick indigenous players round our picks in this draft..
This may sound silly but seeing the article on winmar made me think we havnt had that type of player for a while. Would love to see another Winmar type in the red white and black tearing up the wings at the dome, and we need outside pace and precision kicking.

Not a lot recently .James Begley.If you believe Tim Watson Begley he was going to be out next captain .
Timmy really had a handle on things didnt he !
But , havent really landed anyone of note past The G Train .
Is this due to good management of not paying 7 million over 7 years or no one wants to pay for us ?

so basically no one. even though we have a number of kiwis, QLD, WA, SA players on our list
i dont think we should worry about the home state of the player as a blanket rule

Doesn't he get to choose a club before the bidding process and then it is up to that club to match a bid?

I'm hearing it's still genuinely 50/50.
He was at the launch of our revamped FS academy today though.
I actually had lunch with Bailey yesterday.Hey Guys,
What's the latest word on Bailey Rice's preferred club of choice (if there is one)?
Thanks
I asked him what his preference was. He said he hates Carlton with a passion and hed be happy to sign a 10yr basic wage contract with the Saints and he sleeps in Stkilda pajamas and cuddles a Nick Riewoldt doll to sleep every night.
Im pretty sure your smart enough to realise I made that all up just to make myself feel better about losing to you guys this yr

I've said that it comes down to what he wants. I think we'd all agree that, right now as it stands, the Saints are closer to a shot at success than the Blues, given that you guys have only really started your rebuild, and we're a few years into ours. So it's whether he wants to try to break into a team closer to success, but that has tons of players who play his role (HBF). Basically, it's between a chance of success but difficult selection/opportunity, and easy selection/opportunity but delayed/precarious chance of success.
It'll definitely be one of the great discussion points of the trade and draft period.
Im 37.. was lucky enough to see plugger k8ck 13 at moorabbin... just

Gillo seems to think that he's 100% going to be at Carlton because he's going to be training there more then St Kilda lol
