Found this response interesting.

BB: If someone made a film of your life, who would you like to play the lead role?
Daniel: No.

Re: Selection #13 - Daniel Talia

Ranted to my fiancee that we picked up Daniel Talia, she was like "what a horrible name"


Check out the footage of him, he's a gun

Re: Selection #13 - Daniel Talia

He is taller than vossy and has very good set of shoulders on him. Voss is being interviewed on foxtel and Daniel was standing behind him talking with Triggy and some other crows support staff out of camera rang. He looked very relaxed and happy. Quite a few smiles on his face as he was discussing things. Had on the crows top already.

Back from the draft.

GUN.

IMO will play HBF in Otten's position, maybe not next year, but could very well.

Was very happy, as was his family. Craig and Rendell went upto him after and everyone was wrapt.

Very pleased with this.

Re: Selection #13 - Daniel Talia




Seriously, every time I've seen footage of him he just reminds me of a Crow. Uncompromising attack on the ball, always looking to create, loves to play on, works hard all the time. A real beauty

Re: Selection #13 - Daniel Talia

Another Assumption boy, you blokes love em!

Gun kid and a bloke that has been in the eyes of drafters for years now, they always knew he would play football at the top level, he has been stream-lined to the AFL.

One of the major upsides to him is that he only shot up in height in the last couple of years, I always thought he'd be a tall midfield (maybe ala Pendlebury). So he has sort of developed into a effective KPP, but one that moves like a tall sized mid, helps a lot in regards to his closing speed and the amount of rebound he can provide.

Well done guys, I'd be stoked.

Sounds a bit like Otten?

I can see in the next few years that most mids will be in the 191-196 range. The more we pilfer athletes from Basketball the taller the mids will get.

Re: Selection #13 - Daniel Talia

As good a nickname as Jenny is, I reckon Daniel "cmndstab's second favourite player with blonde curly locks" Talia is a better one.

Re: Selection #13 - Daniel Talia

1st pick - Athletic lad from Calder and Assumption! Hard to pick that one!

Re: Selection #13 - Daniel Talia

He moves a bit like Cooky.

Re: Selection #13 - Daniel Talia

I wanted Lucas but as soon as carlton took him I knew we would take Talia. I wonder how high he is on Rendells list?

Re: Selection #13 - Daniel Talia

Congratulations Crows - you have a good player there. I heard that Adelaide rated him highly, they came and spoke to him at Assumption, and went as far as saying that if he didn't like the club that picked him, that he could come to Adelaide after that. I think you and North have got the pick of draft.

Incidentally, his grandfather was a Bulldogs premiership player, so he has the bloodlines.

Re: Selection #13 - Daniel Talia

Thanks for that DRB I never thought he'd slide to us

Re: Selection #13 - Daniel Talia

Was SURE Carlton would take him.....asaweeeeeet

Re: Selection #13 - Daniel Talia

lol just had a look at the draft chat on the afc site and theres someone called jenny going nuts that we picked a KP. Its a bit strange a decent KP fell to us considering melbourne and carlton were right before us (wonder why they didnt like him?) but i'm not complaining you can never have too many KP players.

Re: Selection #13 - Daniel Talia

By the sounds is a pretty decent prospect, just watching his vid's think he looks better up forward than he does down back, really tries model his game on Riewoldt, ie athleticism, workrate etc. Also has a pretty decent kick. Could we finally have that lead up CHF that us fans have been screaming out for. Apparently is already pretty well built and sounds like he's probably pretty AFL ready, not that we really need that atm. Best of luck to the kid

yes, but you're looking in the wrong direction, look at Phil Davis

Stood next to him for a little while tonight, needs a bit more weight, but so does every kid there. Nice height.

i doubt he'll be a guaranteed star CHF at the pick we got him, but hopefully one of davis, mckernan, henderson, walker, Talia etc can become this type of player.

lol really? i wondered!

Yeah, I think he could certainly do it to, only fwiw he was playing as a defender today at training.
