Opinion 2013 afl draft day discussion thread

[Allefgib]

Howdy folks. Let's keep all or draft day discussions here. Specifics on our picks have their own threads ill unlock later.

 

[Hank93]

Love the draft every year; the thrill of welcoming a new player to the club is always great. New stuff is always shiny

In contention for our pick: Crouch, Dunstan, Dumont, Cutler, Karpany, Hewett.

Lets see if any of those end up at Adelaide

 

[jackster83]

Plus the Ashes kick off today.

Not going to be the most productive day at work I think.

I'll be over the moon if we score any of those 3. Of course, I'll take the other 3, but the bolded ones stand out for me.

 

[Allefgib]

Rory Lobb.

Need more ruckmen, need more Rorys.

 

[FAITH]

C or C for 23

 

[Archie87]

draft day... second favourite day on the AFL calendar!!! Love watching it all unfold and seeing who slides/bolts!

 

[Deaneus!]

Goddamn... At a conference... Plus it's my partner's birthday... Plus it's our anniversary... Plus the Ashes is starting... And it's draft day!!!

 

[1990crow]

Any chance of Karpany lasting to our second pick? Think he'll be a player.

 

[radiojake]

I wish it was draft day - Only just read it doesn't start until 7pm!

 

[AFC3000]

At least its not Draft Month... AFLs new way of extending their media coverage into the cricket season, top 30 picks done one day at a time.

I saw someone mention it might be possible to watch on the AFL app but haven't seen anything official, anyone know?

Well, Australia's middle order collapse is in full swing.

Bring on 6:30 I say!

Would be happy with any of the players H mentioned. I'm far more interested in what way we go with #46. SHould be an interesting night nonetheless.

23 will get us a good one 46 should be interesting. Thinking a developing ruck/frwd or electric small frwd

 

[Punchy Bassett]

So which draft pick would have we had without certain penalties.....

 

[DREAM TEAM BUFF]

Rory Lobb.

Need more ruckmen, need more Rorys.

It would be good to see Rory Lobb get picked up.

Late 1st round to anywhere in the draft

Pick 8.

 

[Drugs Are Bad Mackay?]

draft day... second favourite day on the AFL calendar!!! Love watching it all unfold and seeing who slides/bolts!

What about the 22 Crows games? Finals?

 

[Elder van Berlo]

What about the 22 Crows games? Finals?

In seasons where there are only 22 Crows games, each individual one tends to fall down my list a bit... if there's 25 or more, then they tend to rank a lot higher!

 

[FAITH]

Pick 8.

I fear for Trigg if Aish goes 8

 

[class78]

Hoping we get Crouch or one of the two South Australian D's with Pick 23. Hope we get Darcy Cameron with pick 46.

 

[FAITH]

is it only on fox can we watch the draft online?

 

[cmndstab]

Bring on the draft!! I'm pumped


It's a 6:30 start (our time), right?

 

[kimirocks]

'If' we had 8, I doubt we would have stayed at 8, surely we would've gone for 3/4 to lock it in.

It's interesting though how 2 months ago there was a lot of talk about how it was a shame that we didn't have pick 7 or 8 to pick up Crouch Jr and many thought he would go between 5-15 - if we want him, we won't be far off.

1 hour to go...

Yep 6:30 SA

I would be satisfied with any of those at our pick. AFL phantom draft has us taking Crouch with #23. At #46, maybe some flair like Dwayne Wilson or a ruckman like Rory Lobb or Darcy Cameron.
