Mega Thread 2014 Drafts complete

[Viney]

Todd Viney was our captain too.

What are you trying to infer about the great man? *stern face*

(ok, he wasn't the most skilled kick *redface* )

 

[Dez!]

I'm not fat, I'm big boned

There's a massive difference between "ball butcher" and "disposal issues".

Grimes had a couple of shocking turnovers and people overrate those problems due to one or two significant ones.

Yeah I understand. McDonald in a similar vein. He's disposal isn't as bad as people make out, but he doesn't help himself by constantly making the wrong decision and the bad ones stay in people's heads a while.

As the melb BF board, I reckon we should have an award for clanger of the year. Would be some cracking nominations. Riley spotting up Josh Kelly at the top of the 50 was a personal highlight

 

[Theo X]

Probably the option if we do that stupid swap with the Bulldogs

GWS are spposedly keen on him too so there's no guarentee we'd get him. Another reason to just keep 2 & 3.

 

[ThePuppetMaster]

At the moment it seems we're taking 2 and 3 to the draft, but I wouldn't discount a Tyson type deal bobbing up in the next week for one of those picks.

 

[LeverPuller]

Neeld just spent 30 seconds raving about Ollie Wines on Trade Radio.

YOU SHOULD HAVE ****ING DRAFTED HIM YOU DUMBASS

Perhaps TSH was trying to infer from this thread how to clearly imply that there is a difference between 'infer' and 'imply'.

Sorry.

 

[Devastating Boris]

A little off topic I know but has anyone else seen the 'Trading Pursuits' ad on this page? Is that guy Alex Georgiou???

Looks more like a well-dressed Clint Bartram to me.

First glance was Harry Taylor

Matt Jones 15m turnover kicking backwards against Essendon directly infront of goal

Grimes kicking out of bounds on the full when we were 3 points down with under a minute to go against Port.

Dawes' kick to two Port players when we were up 3 a minute earlier that set up their winning goal was infinitely worse.

Really, 'infinitely'?

So our CHF mistimes a kick and two Port runners intercept it. Shithouse.

Our captain, who plays in a position that demands reliable disposal, kicks it to a free man on the wing with acres of space. Literally all he has to do is drop punt it 40 metres onto his chest or in his general vicinity. He kicks it over his head and on the full. Unforgivable.

I think you need to watch it again.

I think that's a bit harsh on Grimes.

Dawes has 3 players leading at him and bombs it 30m over all their heads to 3 Port players when we were up (IIRC)?

Grimes has Tyson leading towards the boundary and misses him by about 3-5 metres getting it out of bounds.

Both poor decisions.

Technically Grimes' was poor execution, Dawes' was execution and decision making.

Sorry.

Yes, my mistake....imply was the correct one

And please stop talking about all of these miskicks, I'm living the nightmares all over again!

How about that game winning Salem goal?

 

[Viney]

That's more like it *thumbs up*

 

[d33my]

Guys guys guys, we could sit here all day talking about who is the worst kick on our list, but the fact is: they're all terrible.

[RandB]

PSD2 is looming as being pretty important the longer this stuff goes on.

If Saints use PSD1 on Jaksch and we end up getting Garlett via very late trade then save a spot and get out that net.

YOU SHOULD HAVE ******* DRAFTED HIM YOU DUMBASS

He's at Oakliegh chargers now does that mean don't draft from Oakliegh because they've been Neelded

 

[LeverPuller]

Eastern Rangers actually.

In short: don't draft Petracca

 

[mrmonkey]

Oh well in that case tell stkilda Petracca has been Neelded
