Game Day 2024 Draftmatmas live celebration and melt thread

[Al Heimer]

Oh well I’m gonna sit by the pool and suck some beers

Enjoy[emoji481] The Tigers are back baby!

On SM-A426B using BigFooty.com mobile app

 

[Barnzy]

The list is definite imbalanced.

We lost Baker, Bolton, Rioli, etc and really only picked Hotton as a smaller speed running type.

But we're picking pick 1 next year either way so doesn't really matter I guess

 

[Mr Magic]

odd selection indeed.

Simms can replace Lynch, not substitute for him, but at least we know Simms can ruck and compete up forward. Simms to Smillie would be familar

 

[Morro]

wont play for 3 years according to Morro

nAh Hotton will play

 

[Tiger_Of_Old]

Wonder why the hate for Shanahan?

Soft

 

[tiger_tough]

West Coast took Shanahan. That's crazy. Their tall forwards are the only good part of their list, and they add another?!

Who outside of Waterman amd Allen?

 

[smurfin]

Obviously we rated Faull & Armstrong ahead of Shanahan, etc
Rated Simms ahead of J Whitlock, Kerryn, Dodson, etc

Happy enough that we have got exactly who we wanted with these picks, rather than trading down and taking whoever was leftover.

 

[Aristotle Pickett the3rd]

Surely saints go Whitlock

 

[guruisatiger]

Now what the heck are we meant to do for the rest of the night!

All have a big circle jerk

 

[Punt Road Feral]

I’m alright with Simms.

Looked pretty handy at the Championships.

One of the 3 drafted will have to come good.

 

[GoTigers2015]

One rookie elevation still be confirmed to enable a spot of Mate Colina

 

[tigs2010]

Where is Whitspud going?

 

[Tiger_4_Life]

Prepped for life after lynch.... And in the event the tap and Bauer are no good.

 

[Lsta062]

Wow people don’t want Jack Whitlock do they

 

[Drunken Wookie]

Must say, that one confused me. Will be interesting to hear what club have been thinking here.

199cm ruck/forward or forward/ruck. Armstrong and Faull with Simms is land of the Giants.

The interesting thing for me, forget about Cadman. There is absolutely no point.

dont get the cadman fixation anyway hes still pure potential

 

[guruisatiger]

Great pick Saints

 

[petro12]

anyone know how many picks we can take tomorrow?

After we pick up VAFA divy 4 FF tomorrow it’s all about North losing until we come back as friends and talk pick 1 and 2 next year

The list is definite imbalanced.

We lost Baker, Bolton, Rioli, etc and really only picked Hotton as a smaller speed running type.

We will be culling a lot of crap in our talls next year or 2

 

[Groupie_]

Where is Whitspud going?

bar eight

 

[Danog]

Who outside of Waterman amd Allen?

Look, there's not many good parts of their list overall. I'd be fixing a lot of other stuff before targeting another forward.

 

[tigs2010]

Saints trying to get all the defenders

 

[Aristotle Pickett the3rd]

Better to get talls in now as they take a few years to develop.

 

[Greggy]

one trick pony lead up mark imo.

Worked for Plugger.

 

[Barnzy]

Disappointed with Sims, had 1 good game for the year that blew his stats out. Shanahan so much better as a forward, clearly took Sims for ruck relief.

I hope it work outs. He looks alright. Haven't heard much about him.

I will say that picking bit part talls who can play multiple positions is scary. That tells me they're probably not dominant enough to stay in one position in the juniors. Will that change at AFL level?

I'd rather pick the pure ruck prospect Dodson if we want a ruck or key forward if we want another key

 

[Drunken Wookie]

Worked for Plugger.

very different game today
