Yeah cos that's the type of individual you want at a footy club

bloody oath i do, he luvs afc.
see wingard and port

have you guys even watched milera, he tore the SANFL (2nd best comp) to pieces late last season.
He is top 5 imo

Crows picking Milera/Burton will be great for us. Weitering, Curnow & H.McKay with our first 3 picks will be very handy to the long term picture

played better in the SANFL than he did in the Championships. Not close to top 5, outside players rarely are but I like him a lot and would love him at North.

What sort of player do you seem him being long term? Burgoyne comparisons fair? Don't think there's any risk of us going for him not the sort of player you go for at the beginning of a rebuild

From what I hear, it will be McKay first and then Curnow should he still be there.

Is there only the 1 Crows pick between our 2? If so then yeah McKay definitely needs to be snapped up first. Curnow has apparently not been too keen on an interstate move

 

[Bojan KantKick]

very damaging half forward in the SANFL, didn't do as well on the ball during the championships.

I maintain that Kavanagh didn't get the opportunity he needed.

 

[Loonerty]

Also happy FrancisParish Day everyone!

 

[jd2010]

Jatz Reckon we'll take 5 or 6 kids in the draft? Would really rate it if we snapped up Hardwick with a late pick either before or after the SOSS bid if he is still available

Injuries didn't help

 

[Loonerty]

Injuries didn't help

Agreed.

a lot of games being played between carlton and crows.

on milera ive seen both him and burgoyne as under 18s and couldnt be a better comparison.
burton if fit is the next gunston.
id be happy with mckay though but dont want curnow.

Only games that could be played is you guys bluffing about not wanting Curnow. We want both McKay & Curnow but we've got to work out who you want more and pick them first. All the whispers are it's only McKay you want and that Curnow would still be there if we didn't get him first time around.

Depends on who's around with our later picks and what we need to use on Jack. If there's someone there we still like, we'll likely pick 6 kids.

What would the purpose of only taking 5 picks? Get to automatically promote a rookie?

got a source in the club think youre right

That you might be bluffing and do want Curnow?

 

[Jatz]

Yeah pretty much. We don't have to promote a rookie though as far as I'm aware. If we chose not to, it would then leave an extra spot for next year's draft.

 

[FAITH]

That you might be bluffing and do want Curnow?

yep

 

[Tulip]

Oliver screams Wines to me. Late bolter, then faller, then bolter again. Hope we take him. Seems one of the surest prospects.

 

[Shoei]

Hard to give a s**t about the draft each passing year watching the same teams butcher numerous top picks season after season after season.
