2016 Draft discussion

[spotthedog1]

Some big names still on the board. I was expecting if a bid came in too early, we'd take 5 and (as Conole said in the preview) consider a DFA. At this stage, I reckon we'd have a run at a live pick. Too many sliders still on the board.

 

[dlanod]

Graham gone.

 

[Hollow Knight]

Jack Graham gone to Tigers.

 

[M Malice]

Hopefully we rookie Cox's bro

he went to the dockers at 41

 

[blueiris]

Jack Graham gone to Richmond

 

[SizeMatters]

Has a Larke medallist ever gone that low before?

 

[pulpdriver]

Do we have 3 more live picks or just the two?

 

[MacMum]

Arent they the same thing?

Hope we get Allison.....translation: WE pick him first

..or we bid for him if he goes elsewhere.....translation: If another club picks him first, we put in a bid for him.

Hope that clears it up for you.

 

[scoman]

Gws with live picks in the 4th... who would have thunk it?

 

[briztoon]

So big question.

Do any of the recruiters crack the Gatoraide on their tables?

They bid, we match or don't match.

He is a free hit at this point in the draft anyway. No need to match points.

 

[irel]

he went to the dockers at 41

Not his brother.

Just jumped on. At picks 3, 17 and 23 was doing big fist pumps - absolutely stoked with those 3. Cedric Cox also taken about where he is rated and provides some speed and run we need.

4 Vic Country boys (one via Halls Creek) and 3 from North Ballarat. To join our existing Vic Country contingent. Under the guidance of Paul Henrikson. Fantastic!

 

[Crawb]

Even if Giants bid on Allison at Pick #54 next we're deficit free for next year now. The 197 point discount plus the 28 points we have with Picks #72 & #73 is enough to match it.

 

[M Malice]

Not his brother.

thanks, what's his brothers first name?

 

[Bucking Beads]

How did the lad get Lions gear so quickly?

 

[briztoon]

Wow, an academy club actually drafts one of their own with a live pick.

 

[Hollow Knight]

Allison bid. Here we go!

 

[Harris Specter]

**** off Saints

 

[dlanod]

Allison bid... And matches.

 

[FFB1]

Yes

 

[Hollow Knight]

Welcome Jacob!

 

[pulpdriver]

****ing Saints.

Almost got to 56.

 

[bato]

Wooo

 

[spotthedog1]

Allison bid. Even if we accept, we'll still get a bid at 73. 72 will exactly pay for it.
