Game Day The 2025 Draft Day Thread

[UseR2006]

And a song to sing as we watch,

Hey Matty Clarke by Kevin (Random260) Wilson :

Hey Matty Clarke you campaigner, where the **** is Sharp
I’ve looked at all these other spuds and there’s no one that I like
I wrote you a ****ing letter and posted about it twice
You dopey ****ing Richmond fart, you forgot my ****ing Sharp

If I wanted a stupid ruckman type, I would’ve bloody asked
And this half back flank and temu mid, you can shove right up your arse
You’ve stuffed the bloody order up, it’s enough to make you spew
But it’s not just me who’s snakey, SGIO is dirty too

Next time I come to see ya, I’m going to punch you in the guts
And I’ll sack the other recruiting knobs and kick Toddy in the nuts
You just wait 'til next year when you go back to the draft
And me and me little GIO come stomping through the door
And we'll say, yeah, you wait for it

Hey Pyke and Woosh you smell his breath
And check his bloodshot eyes
And don't listen to him eagles fans 'cause he tells ****ing lies
He's just a ****ing useless campaigner and he's not even very bright
'Cause the stupid ****in' w***er, forgot me ****in' Sharp

Hey Matty Clarke you campaigner, where the **** is Sharp
I’ve looked at all these other spuds and there’s no one that I like
I wrote you a ****ing letter and posted about it twice
You dopey ****ing Richmond fart, you forgot my ****ing Sharp

It's funny how it interrupted the lyrics XD

Literally just 17 for 18 and the Saints F2.

It was our 2nd rounder

 

[dinnaz]

Withereden mk2

 

[ghostbat12]

Yeah time to sack Matt Clarke.

why, because GC matched? I like the bold strategy of attacking other club academies/ngas. club has done what it can and made other clubs really pay. at end of day, you can't take them all/

 

[WCEConnor23]

Tbf, Hawks probably would of picked Lindsay, and i'm pretty happy we got him.

 

[Shuestar13]

Clarke doesn't do the drafting....

He doesn’t, but just sack him anyway

 

[Keys]

Remember when Lindsay was being talked up as a possible top 5-10 pick

Well now he’s at West Coast

 

[Quinz]

Elite ball user. Like the look of that.

 

[Farmer Lister]

The best kick in the draft

 

[FatPizza]

Would the Hawks have taken Lindsay?

 

[Happy Mastenator]

Hard to be upset with any of our picks. But besides duursma the other two are talented but leave us not having addressed our major issue

 

[eagles rule]

Lindsay is a big slider elite ball user will be great to watch

 

[bzparkes]

Lindsay is fine, most in here wanted him as a top 5 pick back in May.

Great result...

 

[amazingjoshy]

What was the actual pick swap or trade?

 

[twce13]

i rekcon hawksd would have taken lindsay at least
so makes me less upset about the trade

 

[PepperTom32]

Did we just get shafted or shoot ourselves in the foot?

Theyre not mutually exclusive

 

[boondy]

Ws are death riding Hawks as we swapped 2026 f2nds
Not a biggie

 

[Barrybran]

Did we just get shafted or shoot ourselves in the foot?

Self-inflicted wound. Someone got their maths wrong.

 

[HoneyBadger35]

It was our 2nd rounder

No it wasn’t.

 

[jdisc]

please don't let Duggan teach him how to distribute

 

[Plague]

Absolute steal of the draft! So stoked to grab Lindsay, he's going to be a gun.

 

[Ambrose Burnside]

Laughable - someone in the box was obviously convinced that GC would not have points with bids at 17 & 18.


Have no clue what to do now looking at the screen - still no mids.

Well bloody done guys.

We could have done it had we used Pick 1 to bid on both of Gold Coast's top prospects.

Just dumb.

But at least Jamie Cripps is on the senior list.

 

[Bleedblueandgold]

Ofc we were gonna select a defender...

 

[HoneyBadger35]

Hawks have announced it as just 17 for 18 and the Saints F2. Where are you getting this from?

 

[footy_basis]

Clarke seems like an absolute moron, 2 years in a row.

He just has to go now. These are decisions that ruin clubs.

 

[squashface]

I had Lindsay as a top 3 talent early in the year. Gun.

Just a shame we threw a F2 in the bin to do it
