Alan Richardson and Christian Petracca just spotted having a chat out front of Sofitel. @AFL Richo will join us on countdown show.

The mystery deepens...

They are family friends..

Probably catching up in regards to certain ingredients for a homemade salami.

Here's the expanded version for those playing at home

 

[dazzledavey36]

I did get told a story from a St Kilda board member that they were going to pick Patrick McCartin because it was St Nick's choice and why he signed on for two years to mentor him.

He also said that Petracca was the same as Billings who they drafted the previous year and rated Billings better.


Last thing he said was the Dees might not go Petracca because he is not in the Roo's player profile


Anyway just what I heard - take it with a grain of salt but thought I would share.

Roos on Petracca and McCartin.

“We’d be more than happy to get any combination of two of those three players.”

Petrecca will be a demon is not selected pick 1.

 

[Gysberts2Bate]

That's it, for no good reason I've convinced myself that we are taking someone other than CP at pick 3. If we take Petracca I'll consider it a pleasant shock.

Since you changed your name you've lost your marbles...

Yep, really underachieving now....not dissimilar to the 2 in his name.

 

[Captain Jack]

I think the reason you've convinced yourself is so that you can come out and say "I knew it! I picked this!"

Everyone keep calm and carry on.

Haha no that's not it, I'm just genuinely nervous. Never one to say that I picked a draft result. Let's hope that in six hours it's all okay!

Kirk: [surprised] I... I... a divorce? Sure. Divorce. Hey, you got it, toots! And here's a picture even you can figure out! [draws a circle in a rectangle] It's a door! Use it!

Homer: That's a Door!?

 

[ThePuppetMaster]

It still worries me that he said Petracca won't be playing for Collingwood, rather than that he won't be playing for GWS. Must be the MFCSS. Will be much happier when this is over.

Gysberts2Bate, I believe that was due to speculation from the hosts prior to the interview that he could slide to Colonwood.

Yeah probably. Brett Anderson has tweeted that AB/CP are locks, so hopefully there's some mail coming out of the MFC that all the journos have. When we took Toumpas everyone knew at least a day ahead.

 

[Topkent]

I'm 100 percent sure we will take petracca , yet I'm still ****ing nervous as hell

Melbourne 'clap' 'clap' 'clap'

I'm not quite sure why you are so anxious about this. We now have people in positions who know what they are doing, and they have already made it very clear who we are picking. Just relax!

 

[jhong]

Strong undertones of "We can't possible f#*k this up , could we?" seem's to be poking its head in today

Here's the expanded version for those playing at home

And here's our draft picks... signing autographs of course

"Petracca holds it... holds it... holds it..."

Roos on Petracca and McCartin.

“We’d be more than happy to get any combination of two of those three players.”

Petrecca will be a demon is not selected pick 1.

Roos earlier today:

"I've been hitting the bottle hard recently. You should probably ignore everything I've said in the last week or so."

Cricket's a funny game.

Everyone needs to relax..... no matter how hard we flop at tonights draft (even though we won't) just remember that we have Dom Tyson..... that is all that matters in life. #SuperDom #isDomisGood

 

[Supermercado]

The best thing is that if #4 is 00000000.1% better than Petracca but we're still rubbish in five years while he's playing for a finals side there will be articles everywhere about how it was another drafting blunder. GAGF in advance to the journalists who write them.

 

[DeesFan]

I think our only loss would be not getting Brayshaw he has Selwood written all over him. Would kill me if Saints took him at pick 1 and we got the other two.. He is my number 1 the other person I couldn't care who we got but Brayshaw will add class and he will be Captain one day.

Hate to be that guy... You know that's the same as just writing 0.1%. Still a low chance being 1 in 1000, but did you mean 0.0000001%?

 

[The Professor]

Gysberts2Bate, I believe that was due to speculation from the hosts prior to the interview that he could slide to Colonwood.

Was it the HS boys.

It is a well known tactic to throw Collingwood into anything for a cheap rating.

top 3 looks locked. order might change a bit.

 

[TDC3]

Oath. It is outstanding. #whataman
