How does that affect us if at all?

 

[Silvagnis]

Carlton will have picks 18, 34, 42, 68 and 71.

Small mercies.

 

[thylacine60]

Cheers.

just means 2nd round pick is 34 instead of anywhere between 35 & 40 if the other teams had used their compo picks (same for following picks)

How did you get a nsw kid on your picks at pick 70 in your selections i would have thought none were good enough although i have heard good things about duncan the one you put at pick 70

In the box seat

Isn't it funny, he mentioned to Hallahan's father as Mitch ground down his opponent, that he was really only using his left hand. "I thought it was quite strange. I wondered why he was doing it, and it turned out he'd hurt his right hand playing footy. It was actually dislocated. He didn't tell me and he stopped the bloke in the second round, the little bugger," said Catalucci. "He's got amazing dedication, Mitch, and he's tough. He won easily that day. It completely blew me away."

Both men agree on one final thing — he's tough. Before the season started, Hallahan injured an ankle at a training camp. It turned out he had chipped a bone in it, but he played through the season, through the national championships and into the finals before going in for an operation only a few weeks ago. "He just kept playing and you wouldn't have heard a word out of him about it," said Flanigan. "We managed his workload a fair bit and had him spending a bit more time in the forward line, but he didn't complain and he would never have wanted to stop playing. That's no surprise though, that's what Mitch is like. He's a very tough young kid and all he wants to do is play footy."

Please drafting Gods ... please let Hallahan be there for us at Pick #34.

#18 - Watson/Darling/Mitchell/McCarthy

#34 - Hallahan

Hallahan would add some much needed strength to out on ball brigade given the departure of Hadley and the injury clouds over Brock.

 

[Sin City]

Imagine Hallahan joining Joseph, Armfield, Robinson, Davies, Ellard and Cachia in about four years time

We might not win all of the games ... but I dare say we'd win all of the fights.

Would have to get on the park first

Just loked at this Phantom Draft i have been following, http://www.bigfooty.com/forum/showthread.php?t=773144
And each club has a poster and chooses who the club will get, well who they think.. and by pick 34 Mitch Hallahan hasnt gone anywhere and they have given us Reece Conca, surley if he is still there at pick 34 we will grab him?

 

[Azul]

Hallahan trained at the same gym as Brad Pitt. Perhaps a career in acting beckons.

 

[Ryan Dixon Webb]

I've got:
Pick 18 Lucas Cook
Pick 34 Mitch Hallahan
Pick 42 Alex Johnson
Pick 68 Jordan Eades
Pick 71 Kyle Hartigan

Eades is the man, another Jeffery.

 

[Silvagnis]

Why does everyone want Hallahan?

It would be a damn shame if Hallahan had a Barry Hall type brain snap within striking distance of Dane Swan or Alan Didak.

 

[zeeCFC]

Just creamed at Quigley's phantom draft where we end up with Lynch at 18 and Jacobs at our 40~ pick

we can dream!

One pick away from Smedts, damnit!

Take him with 18!

Quigley is in la la land

I wasn't aware that all people who practice any form of martial arts are short-tempered and likely to snap at any moment.

Why does everyone want Hallahan?

Maybe the fact that he's tough, oozes leadership and is a bloody good footballer might have something to do with it.

While this is true, it is not like Conca is chopped liver!

Every second Carlton supporter has Watson and Hallahan as their first and second pick, yet they wouldn't know them if they fell over them.

If it's true that Hallahan is slow, then our legspeed would take a hit with Hallahan and Mclean in the side.

You don't see even a little irony here???

Never said he was, infact I have Conca rated higher. All I was saying is that I can understand the love for Hallahan as he's a fantastic footballer. Nothing more, nothing less.

That's the point I was trying to make after I asked about Hallahan.

Some just want Watson and Hallahan because of the group think that has taken off.

I didn't infer that I run Carlton's recruiting department inbetween completing a sports management course, running to the pub to chat up chicks and talking to budding AFL players from the Gold Coast.
