[Gee Class Loco]

Holy Barker!!

 

[Pure_Ownage]

Barker there you go. I would have gone philipou personally but this will be a very good pick IF his knee holds up

 

[winty]

Even the dog getting in on the celebration.

 

[Pure_Ownage]

One thing you can take to the bank.

Wells will say the guy we pick will "compliment the group".

Wells gives nothing away ever.

 

[Boxhead_31]

Mack going with the old Wellsy injured highly rated junior method

 

[The rabbi]

Wells taking an injured player who has dropped in estimation due to injury.

 

[MisterMarcus]

"He was on track to go higher until he got injured" - absolutely stereotypical Wells Special.

 

[cats_09]

Good to see a Harley on the list

 

[Gavin Excell]

Reasonable gamble

 

[year of the cat]

Mack going with the old Wellsy injured highly rated junior method

Tried and trued

 

[patience]

Wanna play for the Cats? Break something in your draft year.

 

[CatToTheFuture]

Happy with Barker

 

[catstorm]

Hahahahahahaha Geelong takes the ACL kid

 

[winty]

If he turns out half as good as the last midfielder we picked up in the first round with a dicky knee we'll be laughing.

 

[stac]

Sounds like a good kid

To be fair hes probably the best talent left besides philipou. Geelong not afraid to take a gamble.

Yeah it’s mostly that we always take the risky injured players meme.

 

[Pure_Ownage]

Bid on Williams i bet.

 

[Tony Barber]

I called it 3 weeks ago.
"you'll all be wrong"

 

[D BRIDGE]

Better than Greeves.

 

[CHAWKS2]

More speed.

I know player comparisons can be a bit naff but Barker compared himself to Ollie Dempsey - as did Cal T in terms of speed and marking… I am happy if Cats as normal take time with Barker’s development and if goes the same way as Ollie we will be pretty happy in a couple of years

 

[Pure_Ownage]

Sounds like a good kid

Good work ethic. Nice skills and good speed an endurance combo. Just a risk with the knee.

 

[fpm84]

Twomey had Barker at #28, Fox Footy had him at #20.

 

[Kobe Gryant]

"you'll all be wrong"

Sorry bro, called this one as soon as the trade period ended.

Like I said, we'd be drafting someone who had already been discussed at length.

Second Going to come in further
