Bit past it.But like his line & length.

I like that you know what you'll get from game to game.

Excellent way. If we get Weller and Neal-Bullen I don't care who else we get. We'll have won the draft

Weller is another classy outside mid who can go forward in bursts, joining Deledio, Ellis and Martin.

Neal Bullen is almost an identical player to Anthony Miles, so having the two will be mindblowingly good.

Glenn: Perfect replacement for Newy as a rebounding half back with good kicking skills.

Kova: Nice and big ruckman to fill our weak pure ruck stocks.

Na it was just a joke but could have been a bit rude and I didn't want to offend rockjobster. I couldn't delete the post in tapatalk.

I think there will be a time when our recruiting people can take more risk but I'm not sure the list is at that stage yet. I lean more towards the idea that it's not. For example could taking for arguments sake a cockatoo net the club that much more than going with more "safer" options in Weller or Duggan ? I'll leave the answer to that to those better informed regarding the draft....

I wouldn't say mind blowing.
It's not like the game miles plays is some sort of irreplaceable dream. He had a nice year last year. But two of him wouldn't be that incredible....actually a little bit of a negative.
It's not like Miles can go forward or back to rest. He an undersized stoppage player. Having two of that exact same type wouldn't be that useful game day

 

[Mr Magic]

This is a classic example of this kid being overrated. If he really is all those things he would be in talks for top 3. Apart from the draft camp his kicking has been a bit hit and miss I thought?

Weller is just as quick and is one of the best kicks in the draft.

Arguably Weller doesn't have the marking power, reach and speed though. Weller may not have the same inside game either

He also scored a few handy goals, always good as a mid. I can see him with a ful season improving on that.

Agree.We are just not quite there yet,Still some needs to be filled before we start taking some risks on players like Cockatoo.Would help if we actually win a GF or 2.Even someone like Grigg would fetch us a good pick.lol

 

[SteveRFC]

Anyone seen Jack Lonies highlights from Superfooty.

SUPERCOACH AVG: 98 points

PLAYS LIKE: Hayden Ballantyne

PREDICTED DRAFT RANGE: 30-60

IN THE MIX: St Kilda (41), Richmond (52), Fremantle (54)

 

[SteveRFC]

Would love a little damaging forward

 

[bananatigz]

Would love Lonie at 52, not sure he will still be there though

 

[Tiger_Of_Old]

Seen Richmonds name comeup in regards to Lonie awhile back.

 

[Seymour Skinner]

Really hope they snag Lonie at 52. I'd love a carbon copy of Ballas, absolutely love his work. Except for when no one manned up oh him in the dying minutes of round 5, 2013.

Weller is just as quick and is one of the best kicks in the draft.

The kid had 1 game to show what he had, In 2013 he was being talked about as a 1st rounder and has had an injury which stopped him from having that chance - Along with the fact that he has just turned 18.

He is not the finished product and everybody is trying to find flaws in his game (which there is ) But there are flaws in Duggan (speed) and others also
But none have the upside that Cockatoo has - Gee when Cockatoo is tearing it up in 4 years time we will say
Why the hell didnt we take him and took this bloke

 

[cairo tiger]

Weller Duggan Ellis in that order I believe. Unlikely that we'll be taking a KPP or ruck option like Wright with our first pick at this stage. It's midfield depth all the way.

no wright I just dont get it, we need a power fwd ruck

 

[RockJobster0312]

What if Ahern slips? Would he be someone we would be into?

 

[Tiger Claw]

Cal Twomey links us to Howe

[bigstyletiger]

Vision of Howe looks good. Played as a 192cm mid this year in the tac cup. Also played three games for RFC vfl. Looks to have nice size, movement and skill

 

[Stitch]

We were into Howe last year when he played as a half forward.
There's something very Fyfe-esque about his midfield game!
