2015 Draft Discussion

[jackess]

Darn beat me to it. Future captain at the hawks.

You have to be quick with smartarse comments on this website.

Is Bucky still working in recruiting? I know he left Hawthorn last year.

His draft has a bit of an 'April 2015' look about it. Darcy Tucker was all the rage last year and Clayton Oliver was nowhere but that seems to have reversed over the course of 2015 - except with Bucky.

Silly start by Curnow. Wonder if it will push him back in the draft a little?

 

[SizeMatters]

Hearing murmurs from my source that Weitering to Carlton isn't as set in stone as some around here think with Blues having a re-think the past few days especially. ATM I was told its a 66/33 between Weitering and Schache. Source is well placed and reliable so I trust their word.

Still think Weitering to Carlton will happen but by no means a lock.

please!!! now we have to all start worrying again, ah well at least it's only a few days away and we'll get the schac due to the go home factor in 2 years maybe 1.

Oh no. You mean we could end up with the best player in the draft? I'm shattered.

I also don't think he's thought through the logic of the Academy bidding.

Not worried but I suspect you may take a loooong time to get over it reputationaly speaking if somehow it doesn't work out that way...

 

[Matchu]

Will Hipwood become the first Sunny Coast kid to be drafted into the AFL? Probably a sign of the times with the Lions reaping the rewards of the academy system. Good for Queensland footy

Oh noes! Not my reputation!

Seriously though, I'm not even speaking from a position of inside knowledge. Just a position of anti-hysteria.

No. I'm only thinking back 2 years and remembering Jonathan Freeman. There are no doubt more.

Josh Drummond and Matt Hammelmann also - depending on what your definition of "drafted" is.

Wow. I wasn't aware that so many kids had come out of the Sunshine Coast. You guys are lucky to have the Sunny Coast in your zone as well as the entire Brisbane area.

 

[Hollow Knight]

Actually scratch Hammelmann. Had it in my head that he was a Sunny coast boy but not sure now.

Probably as many kids playing AFL as the suburb of Norwood.

So will you deny that horses were involved?

 

[Maboo]

So will you deny that horses were involved?

I don't know why people Believe anything horses say, they will say anything to save their own skin.
They are prey animals after all.

But it won't work without keys.
