Hi all, Just wondering if anyone could give me a link to watch under 18s curtain raiser from Saturday. I was there live but would like to watch televised game.

Heard a few whispers that some in the AFL industry believe we have not drafted well in 2016 and did not fully utilise coming last. Also questioning our list development strategy. The arguments being used are: We used pick 1 on a small defender We did not trade pick 1 for 2 picks in the first...

This my current top 25 of kids I would want to get into my footy club. Second half of the year will change things as players improve and stagnate as will draft position and club needs. Enjoy and discuss! 1. Will Brodie Just a sure thing big bodied midfielder. I reckon Dyson Heppell is the sort...

I have been barracking for the bombers for over 25 years. We are lower than we have ever been. What concerns me most of all is I do not see a plan for us to rise back to the top. I do not have a great deal of faith with mr little, Campbell, dodoro, Craig and the other leaders at the club at...

My understanding is Joe Daniher will make his debut for the Calder Cannons against the Western Jets this Saturday at Highgate Reserve. It will be interesting to see how he goes.

That time of year again. Work is a killer and am posting first half of phantom draft will get the next up tomorrow night at some stage. Mine is way different to Snoops and Chris 25s which means I am probably way off and it is that sort of even draft. What can I say but enjoy and I hope it...

Pick 1 GC David Swallow WA Swallow is simply the best player in the draft and is ready made to play AFL next year. Should be in every 2011 Dreamteam Pick 2 GC Harley Bennell WA Excitement machine who will add flair to GC’s squad. I feel that he will play predominantly as a small forward to...

Very strong rumour emanating from a source very close to the Jetta family is that Leroy Jetta will request a trade from the Essendon FC and hope to land back in Western Australia. My source says he feels his career has stalled and has not enjoyed living in Melbourne- especially the cold winter...

Views in this work are entirely mine. I predominantly watch TAC footy however I am fortunate to watch some additional footage and have a few connections which give me a very limited amount of inside information. I may have over selected or under selected a couple of picks late. I reckon Ball...

Foj1 Phantom Draft Here is my effort for 2008. The work and opinions are mine. I haven’t placed height, weight and club of origin as you can go to one hundred threads to get that. I have a much better grasp of TAC players which may bias my work a little. I may have missed a few late picks but...

How about a bit of a competition to see who can pick our draft picks. Everyone will successfully pick our third round selection:thumbsu: My selections are: Round 1- David Myers Round 2- Steven Gaertner Round 3- Darcy Daniher Round 4- Jarhan Jacky

Foj1 Phantom Draft Dare say plenty people won’t agree with some of these selections. Must preface by saying I know the TAC players much better than interstaters. Draft picks may not be used by clubs but just lists a few additional players anyway. This list is not how I rate players but how I...

Anyone interested in having a crack at guessing this years team of the year? It is being announced on Sunday at Moonee Valley with the Morrish Medal and I presume the TAC Coaches award. Here is my team and guesses for the other 2 awards. Usually there is a representative from each club in the...

I will be completing Essendon's picks in this years Phantom draft. I welcome all contributions and suggestions and yes criticism as well! There are several people on our board who obviously follow junior footy pretty closely and I particularly welcome their input. There is currently a trial...

Country- Suban, blaser. K Smith, hockey, okeefe, Steven, ford, Michaelidis, Taylor, Curnow, Gaylor, Donaldson, Thoolan, Dangerfield, McKenna, Kangars, Selwood, Hall, Heyne, Hobbs, Hinkley, Kay, Normington, Austin, Bell, Connelly, McEvoy, Tarrant, D Simpson, Henderson. Metro- De Bruin...

Went to the AFL coaches conference at the weekend and listened to Jason Berry who has started at Essendon as a high performance coach. He went through a lot of drills that Essendon are moving towards at training and spoke about what Essendon identified as 'flaws' in their side/list and what the...

Final full draft. Footy starts next week believe it or not. I see a couple of games of TAC a week. One involved with a TAC side. My knowledge of interstaters not so strong. 1. Carlton- B Gibbs- Silky smooth onballer. In a perfect world Carlton would take Leuenberger but I dont think they are...

Do a bit of work for a TAC cup side and watch a couple of games a weekend. However besides Nationals and ABC2 see little interstate games. Theres my preface I guess. 1.Carl Gibbs 2. Ess Gumbleton 3. Roos Hansen 4. Brisbane Thorpe 5. PA Sellar 6. Haw Leuenberger 7. Gee Selwood 8. Coll...

Anyone going to Nat Champs today? It will be a pretty important day for our footy club watching lots of young talent under the pump. i will post some info regarding players tonight. Would like to hear others views.

I am sure there were a lot of Essendon supporters paying special attention to the U/18 championship on the weekend. I am going buck the trend and state that if we finish last I think I would draft Scott Gumbleton instead of Bryce Gibbs. I know the media and a large amount of our supporters would...

Our season is shot lets look to 2007. What would you do if you were List Manager? Lets make the assumption that we will finish 15th just in front of Carlton. I hope we are fantasizing about what our footy club is actually doing. Delistings/retirements- Hird, Rioli, Solomon, Henneman, Bolton...

Here is my summation of our recent draft picks. Drafting is a difficult job but absolutely vital to the success of a footy club. W=win J=Jury still out F=fail After each F or J I have listed alternative picks. No recruiter can get 100% success. 2001- 17S Harvey F- S johnson, Maguire 31J...

does anybody have a list of players who are currently training with us with the hope of being picked up in either of the two remaining drafts? I know of eames, hef, campo, greene, doering and jolley but I would guess there are quite a few more. I know the Cannons players are all at Richmond and...

Don't like to focus on poor players look at this for a side. Players must have played 20 games under Sheeds at the Bombers! B. Wanganeen Fletcher TDaniher HB. Thompson Harvey ODonnell c. Neagle Long Hawker HF. Hird Merrett Mercuri F. Baker Lloyd Salmon Foll. S Madden Watson Williams...

Forget about Camporeale and Heffernan in preseason draft. Save salary cap room and play our youngsters in 2006. Put games into Monfries, Dyson, Winderlich,Watson,Lovett, Slattery, Lovett-Murray, Johns and Laycock and finish in the bottom 6. 2006 draft looks stronger than this years and we will...

My name is foj1 and this is my first posting. I think the Bombers should resist the temptation to pick up camporeale and heffernan and stick with youth. We are a couple of years away from being a force again and we should invest as many games as we can in Winderlich, Watson, Dyson, Monfries...
