Mega Thread Draft Day Supermegaultrathread - It's finally here

[southcoast]

Fkc I hate these expansion clubs. They just seem to love wa boys.

Coz the sooky la la's from Vic all go home.

It wasn't common knowledge when he first said it as we had a lot of votes rolling in for him on the poll which didn't include Laverde as we thought he'd be gone. Hungrytiger was also the only one I can remember talking up Nakia to cats.

It was actually. Nakia to cats went nuts only today when he was flown over.

The whispers were evident for a few days.

 

[Masto]

This made me laugh

That is gold. Probably why they liked him so much

 

[SpaceClef]

This made me laugh

That's so good!!!

 

[ROYAL EAGLE]

****ing Geelong what pricks picked Naika from under us

 

[Masto]

******* Geelong what pricks picked Naika from under us

Wells kicks our ass again.

 

[boondy]

This made me laugh

Uh Oh

 

[Jandamarra]

This draft will haunt us, put your money on it.

 

[hungrytiger]

get me 10 scotches please

 

[Wooshaaaa]

I am absolutely wrapped.
Never thought we had a chance of nailing all four of these players.

Most people know how I rate Duggan, Lamb is speculative but could be anything and well worth the risk, Nelson is a bloody good player and Cavka went 30 places lower than I thought.

We hit the draft jackpot!

Agreed.

Outstanding draft for us.

Jackson Neilson and cavka huge tanks...run all day.

 

[pantskyle]

Cockatoo will be a bust. Bookmark it.

 

[lyall]

I thought we were upgrading Sinclair?

We have.

They didn't include the upgraded rookies as part of the draft this year

 

[SpaceClef]

Cockatoo will be a bust. Bookmark it.

Bookmarked.

EDIT - Although you could always just argue that Geelong had the right midfield base and culture, etc, to allow him to thrive.

 

[Turboman1994]

Stoked great draft for us

 

[mulehoops]

Duggan, Lamb, Nelson, Cavka and Waterman.

Off to redtube..

EFA

 

[Zach Package]

Apart from just missing out on Cockatoo I think you guys have smashed it, I had Duggan, Lamb, Nelson and Cavka all inside my top 33, Waterman is also great value at pick 80odd.

 

[Lyyynnnchy]

Agreed.

Outstanding draft for us.

Jackson Neilson and cavka huge tanks...run all day.

As do Masten, Priddis, Rosa and Gaff...

 

[Seadog]

Right, I've watched the highlights so am a full bottle on these kids. To my untrained eye Cavka looked the pick of them. Duggan might be ok and Lamb was a waste of a pick.

Varcoe v2.

You may come back anytime.

 

[footballfreak]

We've addressed our need for midfield depth in this draft

 

[The Falcon Strike]

With Nelson just watched his highlights again.

So tell me which foot is his natural?

I couldn't tell as he was kicking long goals off both sides. Is that average these days?

Kicked a lot of goals for a back man.

Exact question I was going to ask - likely a right footer I think - but looked clean of both and with depth

Happy with the kicking i've seen of Duggan/Cavka/Nelson

 

[Obeanie1]

Coz the sooky la la's from Vic all go home.

The Suns picking Garlett was interesting.

He will find it difficult to break into that side early on with all the midfield talent they have. Could be a gettable trade target in a couple of years and would provide that outside running winger we are looking for.

 

[WCErevival]

With Duggan, Lamb, Nelson, Cavka, Waterman, Brophy, Adamson, Karpany, Colledge, Newman and Maginness that's a fair bit of new talent to work with. This preseason should be interesting with positions possibly coming under pressure

 

[mulehoops]

Strange seeing the majority on here don't rate the Lamb pick. I was the most happiest when we called out his name out of all our picks. Makes the safer option of Duggan seem smarter. Lambs potential, x factor, and speed are the most "un-vanilla" traits we could of picked in a player. Think if he makes it, he will become a cult figure and the biggest bargain of the draft!
