One has to think how a guy talked about top 10 drops to 16. I had mail today that he was dropping quickly.
 
My issue is that these guys are unlikely to impact in 2015 and we need to improve by at least 15% overall to maintain our position. I just don't see the rationale when we have spent several drafts picking up plodding inside mids and have been lucky to get Mullett and Turner as rookies to supplement pace. If we lose one of Atley, Harvey (36), Wells (30) or Mc Donald we will get smashed on the rebound and a land of the giants in defence won't stop the scores.
Hyphen will play, replace Fish, Atley and Mcdonald when they role into the midfield

I think people need to settle down.

All the best outside runners went before 25.

I reckon we wanted McKenzie, the Saints swooped.

Garlett, Weller, Cockatoo all went before our first.....
 
There's always one...

23. GWS Giants
Patrick MCKENNA
Gisborne | 12/8/96 | H: 186cm | W: 76kg

Paddy is the captain of the Australian under-19 cricket team but has recently indicated he is going to quit cricket to concentrate on footy. He kicked 16 goals in a game for Gisborne under-18s this year then kicked 45 goals for the senior side in 18 matches, including nine goals against Kangaroo Flat. He is too raw to be picked this year in my opinion – but I wouldn’t rule out a club taking a flyer on him, although I think he needs to play with us as a 19-year-old next year to give him the best chance. – Calder Cannons talent manager Ian Kyte

Perspective. Thank you Pykie.
 
Probably the first draft in years where we picked for the future.

Lavarde though pyike? I've been told that people think Durdin has bust written all over him.

Was waiting for this.
 
Delaney is gone!
Cam is 22. He's got 4 years on the blokes drafted tonight. That's significant for a key defender. Having said that, we'd be morons to bet on him becoming a regular given his injury history
 
Don't forget they want to play tarrant in the backline too

Yeah, well. I think they mostly just want the possibility of playing him anywhere at the moment.

has anyone seen Hansen since the Hip?

You thinking horse racing style? They've lifted the sheets for our sensitive eyes?
 
Vickers-Willis has played as a tagger so we may see him there as we do not have one.

Our defence has been a weakness for a long time and isn't good enough to win a flag. Glad it has been addressed finally.

You can't blame us for taking durdin. Who are these star outside speedy mids we missed at 25 and 36?
 
Stoked we picked up durdin. Shocked he was still around...none of us factored him in.

Others I don't know enough about. Pissed that caleb went to the dogs. Really wanted to see him in north colours.
More reason for me to hate them then.
 
Durdin I'm happy with, the others I'm not so sure about.

We were happy with Dumont last year and not so sure about Brown. I think people need to chillax, the draft is a lottery and we generally do okay out of it.
