2016 Draft discussion

[captainrich]

Powell pepper reminds me of cupido for some reason

hopefully he turns out to not just be a better player but also a better bloke...shouldnt be hard

3: Ainsworth
16: Berry / SPS
21: Gallucci /SPP
22: Cox

Rookie List:
- Cox
- Jordan Kelly (Collingwood VFL)
- Ben Jolley (Williamstown VFL)

It would have to be a tragedy that would see SPS fall to pick 16. Berry is firming as a real page favourite.

I think rookie list, you have to save one spot for Lions academy kid, Jack Rolls.

 

[briztoon]

who knows who would be available but the other guys I liked were Sam Powell Pepper, Jordan Galluci or Venables

Originally I wasn't a SPP fan, but I an warming to him at 21 or 22.

 

[luthor]

Ainsworth seems to be the popular choice as a our man.

But McLuggage or MCGrath would be hard to pass up if still there at our pick wouldn't they?

 

[briztoon]

rock, scissors, paper.

To say nothing of Lions academy kids Allison and Watson.

Reckon we'll take whichever of those three remains available at our pick. But there's likely only to be one available (probably Ainsworth), the things we've said Ainsworth might be our man anyway.

Berry comes highly regarded with the type of person that he is. Leadership potential and when the academy was over in the States at the start of the year was really the only bloke who stood up and drove the standards required. Didn't have the best year (like a lot of those 2015 17year olds who played in the champs) but if we picked him up I would be very happy.

actually rock paper scissors.... in my time...

Actually they hold over until the end of the draft and if you still have a deficit right at the end they offset that. If they're unused the carry over to the next year. So gc would still need to use their picks first to match Scheer and then after they've used those if there's still a deficit then leftover points activate

That's only for a single first round pick being used to match. Purpose is to not give you a theoretical extra pick in the draft that slots highish in the order as one pick equals one list spot

It's almost definitely going to be the case with the Suns though - the only picks worth points they'll have are the four top 10 picks. Any bid on Bowes other than #1 and assuming he's bid on in the top 10 will result in a single pick getting used and the Suns having those stored points. Any bid on Scheer after pick 10 will therefore require a deficit and hence use those points.

Edge cases: Scheer not bid on until after pick 56, Bowes bid on after pick 11, etc.

looks like you're right Vossy, Rohan Bewick completed a peer reviewed scientific poll back in april.


twitteless- 35%- paper, scissors, rock. 49%- rock, paper, scissors. 16%- scissors, paper, rock. total votes- 1,292

 

[Cooties]

I always liked having Rock at the end... just feels more dramatic revealing your choice on a 1 syllable word after going 2,2 - better rhythm

 

[TheHairyGamer]

Rock, paper, scissors means the words get longer each time though.... natural progression

 

[Hollow Knight]

Haha, I think the graph showing "air" and "devil" might have different meanings in certain cultures......

I'm surprised it didn't have the Collingwood salute!!

 

[BRAB]

Anyone know if Rock will be drafted in the top 30? Or is scissors a better prospect?

 

[blueiris]

I'm hearing Paper is a top 5 pick

Rock smashed scissors in the champs. Scissors definitely a cut above paper though.

 

[Eons]

Janken.

Much better than Jemkem.

Yeah but Paper was all over Rock. Absolutely smothered him.

 

[briztoon]

Paper is a bit light weight, and I don't know if he has the frame to bulk up.

 

[Harris Specter]

Paper might be lightweight but he flies like the wind. Same can't be said about Rock though, takes a lot to get him going.

 

[Voss the boss]

oh yes Anthony - now he had a few good seasons in his day.
