Reckon anyone hoping for Waite compensation will be disappointed.

 

[Juddalenko]

If we get 27, it would totally justify 3 for Frawley.

Comments yesterday - He will pick his preferred club when he gets back from Bali. Manager didn't say he won't pick a preference.

If he says Carlton then great. If not, at least he's back in Melbourne with friends and family and out of the homebush ghetto.

Hey Guys
Just saw a highlight of Nakia Cockatoo in this video and wow it really got me excited. Would be all over this bloke in a heartbeat. He's 188cm and 84kg and a true midfielder with genuine speed. Hope we pick this guy up.
CHECK it OUT !!

HBF our boy Jarrod Garlett came second in the standing vertical jump at the combine yesterday

Wonder if his kicking has improved?
(Not that it was terrible in the first place anyway)

Guess we'll see soon when they do the kicking challenge of the combine later this week.

The Dogs have nominated Cordy but not Foster as F/S.

I know I haven't seen many games but would much sooner Foster than Cordy.
Cordy just looks way too soft and a little reserved.

Like his brother?

Pretty much but we'll see what other clubs think on Friday.

Me too.

Have taken a warming to Durdin.

 

[gandaal]

Hope we select Petracca.

I've taken a warming to him personally.

He won't fall to our pick.

 

[ferrisb]

He won't fall to our pick.

He will if we package Ellard, White, Lucas, Garlett, Warnock and Robbo for St Kilda's pick #1......

 

[gandaal]

He won't fall to our pick.

 

[etsal1]

Whoever ends up with pick 1 will take him.

 

[coryne]

He won't fall to our pick.

Come on, think positive. All we need is a small scandal big enough to make him drop. How about an ACL scare. We can pretend that he has done one, put him in for an arthroscope and claim he has undergone a LARS reconstruction. That should be enough to have him drop to #6, it worked with Menzel after all

 

[AndrewVadermk2]

Whoever ends up with pick 1 will take him.

l think he was being funny.... but noone picked up on it. lol cray cray

Watched the movie Draft day last night.

I say we employ Kevin Costner so he can show us how to turn pick 7 into picks 1, 7 and a player.

Great movie - saw it myself a few weeks back. Would never happen here, surely due to paperwork and turnaround. It seems like all it took was a 'yep, that'll do' and the trade was done and dusted that second...

If the AFL ever moves to allow trading of future picks or trading during the live draft... this kind of thing could well happen...

Yes, came across as a fine example of commodity trading in its purest form. Poor old Dave Putney, woke up a Sea Eagle, went to bed a Brown and probably wondering what the **** happened.

 

[Dominator_7]

Marc Smuft 3 and Fernando2Gibbs have been awfully quiet lately.

haha yeah god damn David Putney... must have been out of contract... unless the NFL rules allow them to trade guys without permission...
