List Mgmt. 2015 Draft Prospects (Poll Added 31/8/15)

[Dannnnnnnnnn]

AFL site is actually doing something? is this life?

Will wait and see what the quality of the stream is like before I sing their praises. Their past efforts with the likes of the Indigenous All Stars match are ordinary to say the very least. Good initiative though. Just need foxtel on board.

 

[Mofra]

Then you have players like Clay who repeatedly do their knees. I hope we take him this year but someone else might beat us to him.

Smith had an injury free junior career, was no injury risk at the time.

The clubs will weigh up whether an injury was impact or has the potential to occur again. The clubs that take the risk (WCE with Judd, Geelong with Selwood, us with Stringer, Adelaide with Lever) often end up rewarded.

how about Dylan Smith from WA? Seems like a perfect player for us
I hope that I got his name right, now I wonder if I should go to the live game or not; if it is streamed

He's that athletic CHF we're looking for right? Seems like a handy pick in the second round.

Maybe even the third round, who really knows
but we do need some more talls, for sure

I'm keeping from TAC cup guys at the moment after a few rounds of thee champs I will put in interstate players.

On an unrelated note how about coming back to the TAC after missing a whole year with this: http://www.colacherald.com.au/2013/11/quick-thinking-teenager-saves-boyfriend/. Just wanted to see more about what the injury was and that just sounds completely horrid I'm amazed he has managed to get back to TAC footy.

 

[Wizard17]

Dylan Smith and McKay wouldn't be around third round.

 

[Wizard17]

I wonder if MacPherson will be back next round in the TAC? He did say that it was just a confidence thing with his shoulder.

Edit: He does have the hair to be a dogs rookie selection

 

[Dav1d]

Dylan Smith and McKay wouldn't be around third round.

We don't know that for certain, speculative players can go early
I thought our club would have known this all too well by now

Bit of Greg Clark. Hoping to see more of this kid because he seems like the type of player that we would like

 

[Wizard17]

Put a ranking of 5 players per the first three rounds that I'll be changing every few weeks until the draft.

Michael Ablett & Twoomey must not take note of the kicks that Schache has drop short a few metres of the goal, that first game against Metro he had at least 4 kicks that didn't even register a score; I wouldn't be banging on about him been a beautiful set shot...he is alright at best

Let others draft him high. More choices for us.

I am not trying to write him off, I think that he is definitely a good player
their constant exaggerations irritate me

That footage reminds me of the Bont. Just keeps getting those long arms out...

Greg Clark WAFL reserves stats this season, not bad. Would need a big pre season to bulk up and become a greater inside threat and lift his tackling rate. Did lay more tackles at colts level vs smaller bodies so I expect this to improve with a bit of time in the AFL gym. He's my predicted bolter, and seems to be your modern midfielder and the type we like to pick up.

More outside than Bontempelli but there is similarities between the two

 

[Wizard17]

Bit of Malone's 52 disposal game

wonder if that Stingrays player who ran into the goal umpire got weeks for that

 

[Wizard17]

Dav1d you are going to be at the game right

No you've got it all wrong, you just can't tap the umpires. But you can break their leg, just ask Liam Picken

Any idea why he didn't get drafted last year? Sounds like the type Dalrymple would be interested in.

I'd say that it was due to some injuries that he had at the wrong times. We were and still are interested in his progress so it wouldn't surprise me if we pick him up this year.

Which game?

Is coughlan playing in our seniors?
