Don't you call me a moron you dumb ****. How can Carlton not be satisfied with the medical and the interviews or whatever Brock has had to do??? Just because its 'in-principle' does not give your club the licence to try and **** over the people your dealing with. It's a small industry pal...

You're not getting more than pick #11. You don't deserve anything more. I will be ropeable if our people throw in another pick after we'd already agreed a deal. Doesn't bode well for future trading between our clubs if Carlton try to screw us. Would've thought playing a straight bat would be a...

That's absolute rubbish.

If you actually read the full article you'd realise that Icke also said that, 'the deal we have in place will get us over the line' or words to that effect. You dont deserve anything more than what you've got, and you won't get anything more.

Right, but that means we get pick #14 instead of the pick #11 we've agreed to. Not a good result for us...

You don't want Miller, trust me...

No...There is an agreement in place, but because your 'former' muppet of a full forward disgraced himself, you're now having second thoughts. Even Ratten acknowledged the deal was in place. The only reason it couldn't be completed was due to trade week not having commenced. You don't deserve...

We agreed on McLean for pick #11 guys. I think it would be pretty poor form for you blokes to try and duck out of a handshake agreement like that... It's a small industry, not a good idea to be burning bridges by screwing with opposition clubs in that fashion... Icke said McLean was a...

Yeah, I read that. It's just that scumbag Steven Icke foxing methinks. In one breath, he says McLean 'is the type of player worthy of a 1st round pick', then almost immediately he says 'we'll see if Melbourne want to throw in something else to sweeten the deal'. As far as i'm concerned they...

I think Collingwood are dead set keen, cause Buckley refused to answer questions from the media about him. He kept saying "i'm here to talk about the draft camp", which basically means Collingwood are seriously mulling over whether they'll make a play for him. Otherwise, Buckley would've just...

Some of them were pretty comical weren't they?? McLean as a lead-up forward was my favourite...:D Still, I think it is a worthwhile thing to do as a coach to try players in positions they're not accustomed to when the seasons all but over, just to see if they can offer us something. I mean...

Re: Rumour: Eagles keen on Fevola Jeezus, after the whole circus surrounding Cousins, Gardiner, Fletcher et al. and you want this bloke??? Surely not.

Never said it was an easy thing to do. But from my experience, if you can slow down and balance yourself a fraction before you kick, the results are generally better. But its also about having awareness of where your opponents are and how much time you have. Occasionally, from the bits i've...

I personally think it's more of a balance issue with G. Rohan. It's extremely difficult for anyone to pinpoint a pass while running flat out. A few times he's shanked it when he's actually had time to steady himself and deliver the ball. Just needs to learn to slow down a fraction before he...

Cheers, thanks for that...:)

Yeah Rohan's an interesting one. Bundles of talent, but hasn't exactly set the world on fire since the champs. It's a tough draft to read, and I get the feeling we might nab someone at 11 we were expecting to go earlier. There seems to be a general consensus that Scully, Trengove, Morabito and...

totally agree:thumbsu: I find the Hawthorn and Saints links bizarre tbh. Franklin/Roughead/Fevola & Riewoldt/Koschitzke/Fevola wouldn't work... Hawks need a key defender who's also a playmaker, and I really don't think moving Roughead into defence is the right way to go, he's too valuable to...

ha ha..:D That'd be a sight to see.

No surprise we have no interest in Fevola. I'd rather play Newton at FF then have that turkey kicking 80 odd goals and disgracing our club's name... Whoever takes him is going to be putting their club culture and squad harmony seriously at risk. Dead set spud...:thumbsd:

Anybody here know anything about Jordan Williams from Bendigo Pioneers?? Finished 3rd in repeat sprints and the AFL site says he's a "hard-working left footer who uses the ball extremely well". Looks a decent size for a mid too. Is he worth a look??

Hmmm...I don't know how reliable that is tbh. I do know that Bailey really wants a KPF at this draft, but the mids are simply too good to overlook at pick #2. I reckon there will be some good KPF prospects still on offer at pick #11. Perhaps even Butcher...:p There's almost no chance we'll...

A 2.89 is pretty damn close to elite for a mf though, considering the record at draft camp is 2.79 sec's or something. Only a small % get under 2.90 secs at draft camp. 3.00 sec's is considered a par score I think for a mid. I thought it was pretty impressive because it's rare for a player of...

Adelaide tanked in the 1997 GF and won... Darren Jarmen: centre > full forward = 6 goals Shane Ellen: half-back flank > centre half forward = 5 goals Goes to show what can happen if players develop 'flexibility' in their games. Modra went down with a knee injury in the 1st half of the...

Faaaaaaaaaarkkk! :D You blokes better pick him. He's like a 'fancier' version of Dal Santo!! :D

Watts did 2.82 fyi. My point was, that its a significant result considering Martin's rated as the best kick and decision maker in the draft, and our no. 1 focus in this draft is to improve our 'kicking and decision making'... Smartass.

ha ha.. The difference is, D. Martin has poise, sublime skills off either foot, & elite decision making abilities.... My point was, that its pretty rare to find a player who has all those attributes plus 'pace'... Dustin Martin is an exceptional talent. I'm really torn between him and...

I'd add Trent Cotchin and Cale Morton to that list...

Although there's a lot more trade activity this year as opposed to previous years, its still hard to see a quality AFL listed player fall to the PSD. It just never happens... We might be able to get Brett Peake though... :rolleyes: I'm really hoping the rumours are just rubbish..jeezus, I...

We're so far under the salary cap it doesn't matter. We should have just offered him a $6 million dollar contract over 5 years tbh. Would send a message to the rest of the comp, we're dead serious about keeping our best players... :D Essendon are amateurs.

Dustin Martin just ran 2.89 sec's for the 20 metre sprint.. So, how do we now go about acquiring pick #3 people???
