Competitions 2015 PHANTOM DRAFT

[Rack Watts]

Good picks for us, I actually think you will snag Curnow.
As I think we will get "CLAYTOWN".

 

[Azul]

Gracias everyone!

Will there be interviews with each of the clubs' recruiters to rate how they did?

I'm particularly furious about how well Essendon seem to have done.

ESSENDON c/o and thanks to Blugazi

5. Essendon ------- --Darcy Parish

6. Essendon ------- --Charlie Curnow

29. Essendon --------Luke Partington

30. Essendon --------Jesse Glass-McCasker

53. Essendon --------Michael Hartley

Would be stoked with Parish & Curnow. Don't like Glass-McCasker though, surely we'll do better than that in the 2nd round.

 

[HARKER]

All the teams c/o and thanks to HARKER and Blue__Balls for herding and calculating revised orders etc.

Also, love the way Harks listed all the teams alphabetically. And THEN lists GC and GWS...

Wasn't intentional but just ran through the teams in my head and clearly haven't tuned in post 2010...sorry guys.

NORTH MELBOURNE c/o and thanks to Sin City

21. Nth. Melb -------Callum Ah Chee

31. Nth. Melb -------Greg Clark

33. Nth. Melb. ------Daniel Rioli

45. Nth. Melb.-------Steven Tahana

66. Nth. Melb -------Matt Hanson

Like that pace and outside class, I'll be surprised if we pick another hb in Tahana, we have too many as it is. Great effort though, better than what l could come up with.

 

[coryne]

So now that the phantom is over what do people think, is the draft as shallow as has been reported ???

 

[Since 2001]

HAWTHORN c/o and thanks to Cringle

19. Hawthorn -------Mitchell Hibberd K. Collins* Will cry if we pass on him if still available

22. Hawthorn -------Riley Bonner Tick

46. Hawthorn ------Corey Wagner (Brisbane Passed)Tick

 

[Joffaboy]

ST. KILDA c/o and thanks to zeeCFC

18. St.Kilda ----------Ryan Clarke

34. St.Kilda ----------Bailey Rice (F/S)

Umm no. Clarke is not in the top 6 players that should be available @ 14.

Rice is correct, however we have freed up a space for a late pick speculator like Skinner

 

[HARKER]

Umm no. Clarke is not in the top 6 players that should be available @ 14.

Rice is correct, however we have freed up a space for a late pick speculator like Skinner

We seem to like him on this board

Maybe, but I think he and Oliver may be the surprises......although Oliver has already jumped out of the blocks.......reckon Clarke may not be far behind.

We'll see post draft. I've explained each pick and stated I think it's better to take a DFA than a pick that late.

HAWTHORN c/o and thanks to Cringle

19. Hawthorn -------Mitchell Hibberd

22. Hawthorn -------Riley Bonner

46. Hawthorn ------Corey Wagner (Brisbane Passed)

i'd rather Tucker before Hibberd, we might even go Collins before Hibberd, Bonner is about right and Wagner seems ok, but we are after mids not 3 half-back flankers tbh.....

 

[Kangaroos4eva]

Greg Clark sounds like a clone of Taylor garner.

 

[RobsJourney]

Dont think Tigers will take Dunkley...

 

[Cadsky]

RICHMOND c/o and thanks to gandaal

15. Richmond -------Josh Dunkley

50. Richmond -------Aidyn Johnson

Haha i hope Richmond take Dunkley at 15. Nice waste of a first rounder there. The kid is barely worth a third rounder. Some on our board believe he is only worth a rookie spot. Definitely let the tigers keep him at that pick lol

 

[Mr Anderson]

RICHMOND c/o and thanks to gandaal

15. Richmond -------Josh Dunkley

50. Richmond -------Aidyn Johnson

Can't say how much Richmond rates Dunkley but they certainly know him... I have no idea at all but I'd be a little disappointed if they took Dunkley after taking Townsend and Moore, in preference to Ah Chee who seems to be a player type that Richmond currently lacks.

 

[Azul]

So now that the phantom is over what do people think, is the draft as shallow as has been reported ???

I think there's talent but as we've discussed on the 'who do we take' thread, there are question marks over a majority of players.

The depth of the draft may come back to haunt us if collectively picks 20 and 21 turn out to be stronger than pick 11, so we need to choose wisely.

Hahaha. This isn't what will happen cadsky.

 

[Ancient Tiger]

Why only two picks for us? That will leave us with only 36 on the senior list.

 

[beowulf]

Thank you, ladies and gentlemen, for your inspiration. Thanks especially to Harker and co, for running this, and to my other phantom drafters.

 

[HARKER]

I can't speak for your rep, but haven't you elevated Lambert?

 

[Ancient Tiger]

I can't speak for your rep, but haven't you elevated Lambert?

My bad. The club website only had 34 listed. They included Lambert and Townsend but for some reason had not included Yarran. Cheers.

 

[Joffaboy]

We'll see post draft. I've explained each pick and stated I think it's better to take a DFA than a pick that late.

Fair enough. Don't know if there are any DFA'S that suit our needs at the moment.

Saint have delisted an extra player and depends on if there is a bid on Rice if we take a later pick or if we rookie Ray.

I think we would take Balic before Clarke but as you say we will see.
Saints are hot on Matho, Tucker and Gresham as their first rounder

 

[Joffaboy]

Maybe, but I think he and Oliver may be the surprises......although Oliver has already jumped out of the blocks.......reckon Clarke may not be far behind.

Oliver is a hit on our board as well. Realistically he will be gone prior to our pick.

Think we have an affliction on our board to anyone known as R.Clarke after Raph

 

[Blugazi]

Good picks for us, I actually think you will snag Curnow.
As I think we will get "CLAYTOWN".

If Parish wasn't there I would have grabbed Oliver for sure. Couldn't pass up a talent like Curnow.

 

[Skav]

Melbourne are taking Parish lock that one in
