Mega Thread 2014 Drafts complete

[Headless]

I want Petracca.
I want Brayshaw.
And, whilst it may be a stretch, I want Miller.

All will be good when we select a key forward in the draft instead of paying 7mill for one and then raid your club for mids in next years trade period.

None of that here mate.

Touche, time will tell ;-)

McCartin looks good but those two mids look amazing, would love either at the Giants. Demons will do well with them.

LOL. You sound upset about something mate, everything okay?

Upset? No, but I would prefer Petracca.

It seems my club sees it differently and the cost to 'buy' key forwards during trade period and the fact next years draft is a midfielders draft is justification for them to pick Paddy over Petracca.

Although I'm disappointed in the decision I would still take McCartin 2nd overall so not a huge loss. Something to revisit in 5 years, I think. We know Petracca will be the more immediate player and all fans will be scathing that StK did not select him.

 

[TheLastEmperor]

Anyway, I don't want to derail the thread.

Petracca will be a gun. He has all the attributes. Quick, powerful, marks, kicks goals, plays multiple positions.

I still think the Saints will take Petracca

McCartin to StK is a done deal mate. Not only are all media outlets reporting it but there's been a few PM's on twitter from certain StK recruitment staff that infer as much.

The question is, will you guys take Petracca? I would think so but stranger things have happened!

Close to zero percent at this stage. The media usually has the top 5-10 set by the day before the draft, especially the top picks. I'd say McCartin has probably already been informed. Hopefully Petracca by us too.

 

[CWaffles]

Saints have nothing to worry about, Paddy will be an excitement machine and even though it may seem like the wrong decision in some peoples eyes it actually suits both Melb and Saints perfectly, they need a young power forward to pair with Roo over the next few years and we are desperate for strong powerful mids.

CP may have a more immediate impact but I have no doubt that Paddy will be a star in the future hence the reason so many of us were pretty excited by the prospect of him landing at the Dees.

Good result all around really, Petracca, McCartin and Brayshaw 3 best players in the draft.

Few saints supporters may need to change their display pics though, were a few that went early with Petracca.

I don't know if it's because he's aboriginal but where is the constant idea JKH is a small forward coming from? He isn't overly quick and whilst very agile I think his hands in close and ability to dish off make him a prime candidate as a midfielder who pushes to the flank

I prefer dean kent playing closer to goal like a Paul chapman type who pushes into the midfield

Doesn't really read the ball in the air as well as you'd like for a crumber either. Seems a flanker/mid to me.

 

[d33my]

Just because the MM is reporting it and StK officials are dropping hints doesn't make it a done deal.

 

[TDC3]

Cannot wait for us to land Petracca and Brayshaw tomorrow night!!!!


Excuse my paint skills

 

[ManWithNoName]

I can understand the Saints logic in wanting a young key forward now while they've got Riewoldt there to mentor him.

Petracca and Brayshaw for us would be amazing.

Once this many drafts experts are going with it, this close to the draft - makes it pretty clear I reckon.

[CWaffles]

If I hear the words 'we don't have him at either picks 2 or 3' I will actually cry.

 

[Topkent]

His clean hands, agility and good skills make him a very good candidate for a small foward, it's not outrageous.

I agree he's a midfielder though but he could quite easily be effective as a small forward.

You also need a perfect amount of arrogance to play as a small forward , I think he will do his best work in the midfield resting forward

Seriously if we take lever or someone instead of petracca I'll actually post a photo of my PA membership purchased on here

 

[Demon 16]

If he said that, they would have run with the story straight away.

Anyway, you know Roosy - he will have said something that sounded really good, without actually saying anything at all.

Well this turned interesting all of a sudden.

[d33my]

Take the dolphins at 2 and 3. Make it happen Roosy

 

[LeverPuller]

I must admit, I will enjoy having a massive campaigner as a member of the team again. It's been too quiet since Beamer left.
