Has anybody watched foster this year at carlton or their reserves team? Did he do anything at all?

I have seen him play once this year against Casey
Was wearing a different number so had no idea it was him
Didn't impress me, will take a few years to develop.
Won a few one-one contests and we moved to the backline since his marking would help stop casey forward entries.

I saw him once and he didn't do too well, also in the defence in that game. But they have been getting thumped quite often this year so not an easy gig for him.

How's Romero been in the juniors? Heard good things about him last year but haven't heard anything this year. Anyone seen him play?

A bit patchy. Has a good game then takes a few weeks to have another one. That happens a lot with underage players though especially the younger ones.

Hello,
Cal Twoomey here. I will steal all your thoughts for my phantom draft. That is all.

i did a bit of reading up on him last night and apparently he didnt play much of the year due to foot injuries

So are we expecting to get Darcy for free in the draft? is that what happens if he falls out of the point range or do we still have to use a late pick?

Judging by what Dalrymple said in an interview he expects him to be a third round pick which is the same as I rank him so expect a team to bid around pick 50 ish.

A lot of people hete are skeptical about him but I've seen a fair bit and my eye test says we are in for another good one here.

Hmmm... Maybe we can get them to work on running around in circles and falling over?

Any info on Romero's boy for next year?

 

[VitalDread]

Any info on Romero's boy for next year?

Will be part of Calder main list this year and will likely play VFL throughout the year

 

[goodcop badcop]

Josh Kellet not on the list? Son of Nigel who played 101 games for the dogs.

Josh played for Vic Metro in the Under 14's this year. He's in the same draft as Oliver Liberatore I believe 2019

Ahh ok
Think the list was created from the Heraldsun article (people added to it later) so HS must have gone with the main father son names (libba west grant etc)

TOM LIBERATORE BROKE THE DRAFT!

TOM LIBERATORE BROKE THE DRAFT!

fact we got him for a second rounder is beyond a steal

But it's not really.
Libba may be a gun now but he only was expected to go around ~15 in an uncompromised draft. The difference between pick 15 and 41 or whatever is actually less than both Daniher and Viney. Daniher was rated around a pick 2 or 3 and Viney about a pick 5 and picks 10 and 23 or whatever was taken to used them was a more significant than us and Libba.
