Opinion 2025 Picks 7* and 8* – who do you want?

[Scythe]

Alright, back on track. I've whipped up a quick consensus again – will add the missing ones as they're made available.

 

[MarcMaverick]

Just like how Viney and Wines were best mates? Or Anderson and Rowell? Doesn't mean anything.

Yep, you and I could be best mates and we could play in Brisbane and Geelong as opponents.

Or more so that we could use a key defender post Lever/May/Tmac and a small forward and they just happen to be mates.

Also I’m fairly certain Rowell and Anderson has helped keep them in GC. Rowell specifically spoke about his bond with Anderson after re-signing.

Callaghan and Howes would have been a better example.

...do you use your thumb to scroll.?

I usually put mine in a Christmas Pie.

Keen to know more about this, sH. Can you please elaborate?

Nairn added to the invite list for first night of the draft - sounds like we be picking him.

 

[SugarHealey]

I don’t. Verrall to me showed his absolute peak at AFL level would be a slightly undersized ruck who is OK at clearances but gives virtually nothing else.

Highlights are highlights, but Heath’s reel of contested marking and his additional height and size make him a clear upgrade on Verrall for AFL potential.

Oh, I wasn't knocking our recruiting of Heath.

signed jack.

Little Jack Horner
Sat in the corner,
Eating a Christmas pie;
He put in his thumb,
And pulled out a plum,
And said, "What a good boy am I!"

 

[Lampers]

I didn't think you were knocking the Heath recruitment, but there's only so many spots on a list you can tie up in a ruck position which let's face it, unless you have a superstar like Gawn it's really not that impactful.

Gawn, Campbell (one more year surely), Heath and potentially Kalani White (who may be developed as a back or forward) is plenty. No room for Verrall, Heath effectively took his spot and IMO looks to be an upgrade.

If Verrall is good enough he will ply his trade in the VFL or back home in SA and be back in the AFL system shortly.

Thank you.

For what it's worth Nairn is a late birthday, 15th of October

 

[PerfectFooty]

Honestly just want to pick Nairn to tongue twist commentators when we're playing as Narrm. Dwayne Russel I'm sure will have a line ready, he was built for this moment

Why us? There’s like another 10 picks after ours on the first night.

Because we've been explicitly linked to him bruzzy.

We also been linked to Cumming, Robey, Taylor and Farrow.

Bulldogs and GWS also linked to Nairn.

 

[A11dAtP0w3R]

Bulldogs and GWS also linked to Nairn.

The fact those clubs are linked to him makes me even more confident that Im/the club are spot on about him, two teams who move to ball quick rate him highly. GWS scouts in particular know what they are doing.

 

[schmuttt]

He'd be perfect for the Dogs forward line long term, can see why they'd love him.

 

[Bluelegs]

I thought 17 other clubs didn't rate him

Yeah but but but some of the phantom rankings have him much lower!

Everybody panic!!

[Scythe]

If I whipped up a quick Dees board mock draft where posters nominate a team to pick for, would anybody be interested? Would probably need to get it rolling today/tomorrow to ensure it's completed in time for Wednesday.

 

[TheBoss]

I am just going to wait for Danster's pre-season training reports before I decide whether or not I like our draftees.
