So, have we done a deal with GWS on Cameron yet?

Yo

Don't know how Plugger ever made it, he was a tweener at 191cm!

Don't know how Plugger ever made it, he was a tweener at 191cm!

Jason Dunstall 188cm 98kg
James Gwilt 188cm 96kg

Gary Ablett Snr. 185cm 97kg
Shane Savage 185cm 82kg
Lenny Hayes 186cm 85kg

Wayne Carey 192cm 97kg
Dylan Roberton 194cm 88kg
Tom Simpkin 191cm 92kg

Bob Skilton 171cm 76kg
Adam Schneider 175cm 79kg
Caleb Daniel 167cm 66kg

Fair to say 'average sized' in footy's changed a fair bit...

Nathan Fyfe or **** off.

Too right. Other than Fyfe, they have no young stars under 24 yrs old. Baffled as to how or why they think they could get the #1 pick?!

IMO, them interviewing McCartin is just a waste of Paddy's time! (Unless the goal is to persuade him to **** off after the initial 2 year contract with whoever drafts him & head to Freo on huge $$$$$$$$$)

 

[Baker_for_PM]

I don't care about a players height at all. To me its if a young tall forward is willing to go back with the flight of the ball and take a mark like Riewoldt did in Sydney years ago or crash backs like Kosi did that is what makes them imposing and worth the pick.

With the increasing love of the mozzie squad of late do we see Caleb Daniel rising in the draft? I still remember when the tall forwards of Roo Hamill and co were bringing the ball down to Milney and Guerra it was exciting times, would love us to recruit Caleb and let him play that roll for us once again.

Lachie Neale will be a star*, but not sure him in a 'package' would be enough to get us to give up the No. 1 pick.

*My tip for 'breakout' season next year. FWIW

Is McCartin quick/agile? From what I've seen on video, his marking is top notch, but he doesn't seem that mobile at ground level and his kicking for goal is awful.

Very quick over a short lead.

Rahul interested to hear your thought's on Dan Butler's prospects from the North Ballarat Rebels. Impressed me a fair bit at the U/18 Champs, but doesn't seem to be too much fanfare about him.

Tackling machine for the Rebs, who did have a fairly good Champs. Think he's definitely a chance to be drafted a bit later on.

Didn't have the best Champs but has been very good for Rebels and is one of the best I've seen at hitting a contest at full pace and tearing off with footy, a wonderful crumber. Had a huge game for St Pats in HS Shield last week. I know of one Vic team who has shown considerable interest, needs some work but will be drafted IMO.

 

[Ekomaira]

What are your thoughts on Reece McKenzie and where you rate him. Would he be a good pick for Brisbane.

How do I notify or tag or whatever is to get Barrels' attention

RAAAAAAAAAAAAAGE!!!

langdon

Yeah...I think they'll all be around for pick 38 or so... Johansen might not get drafted in the National Draft, same as Langdon. Capiron maybe a sneaky chance to get drafted in the 30s though but I'm not sure. Players like Webb, Viojo-Rainbow, Touk Miller etc I'd be more interested in with our 3rd selection.

 

[Stewart66]

Webb for me...

Webb for me too

 

[God Save Max King]

Webb for me...

Won't be there IMHO. DVR we have to be after, please please please.

 

[Barrels]

My worry is he's a superb kick, but that's really it.

 

[hayes]

That's good enough for me.

 

[Periphery]

Daniel.

 

[Armo #20]

My worry is he's a superb kick, but that's really it.

I can see him being that set up player off half back/wing that is really damaging. Will take time but the more kids we get in with elite foot skills the better. We are easily the worst kicking team in league (maybe behind Melbourne!). If he's there at our third rounder I'd love it if we grabbed him.

 

[Barrels]

Righto, Metro coach David Flood's thoughts:

"Dillon Viojo-Rainbow: “We played Dillon across half-back. He’s been primarily a half-forward/wing type of player. He’s got a unique left foot with a penetrating AFL-type kick so from a rebound perspective he’s outstanding. He’s still got to improve a little bit of his defensive work but you’ve got to understand he’s still working on his game."



Also an interesting article about his injury troubles prior to the season...

Sounds like you were at Craigieburn aswell last week. Venturing down to the G on Friday to watch the final? I'd agree that he really hits contests with pace. Terrific attribute to have
