Depending what our selections are with the first 3 picks, I would consider Maibaum from then on. Instead of Duman, I would rather Ridley, much cleaner, good composure and great by foot, again later in the draft

Yeah would much prefer Ridley to Duman. Looks a better player.

I would take him at 25 if no-one i liked in the teens slid. I know we need mids but i just don't rate the ones suggested to be around at 25. Don't like the AFL prospects of players like Clarke, Gallucci or Drew.

Poholke and Ridley are 2 players around the mid order that i quite like. If we could snare them at 25 and 48 in whatever order, i'd be pretty pleased. But i know that is a longshot.

I've said it before, but we are now a competant outfit...not perfect, but competant. So i'm happy to watch and see what they do.

1st and 2nd Picks - best available.

Some of those mid range mids will still be there at our 3rd and 4th, so have a try with one or two of them there i reckon.

I understand, that 2nd pick is interesting, but don't believe we should over think it. There are always guys that slide out depending if other sides are looking at, best available or needs. I would take Fisher in front of Poholke/Ridley, due to playing at league level before injuring his wrist. Showed he could handle bigger bodies, which is amazing given his frame. I am comfortable that our 2nd rounder will be a good selection

Would you rate him in front of Ridley?
Sorry ArrOw I really don't know anything about Ridley. I don't anything about any of the boys other than Duman, because I've seen him in the flesh. All I can say is I rate him highly, and if his head is right, he'll be a very very good AFL footballer...

Is that you Mick!
 
Watching Fisher's footage, I just can't help but liken him to Lachie Neale. Anyone else see this comparison?

Yep, shades of Lachie Neale, Zach Merrett, with a little bit of that Luke Dahlhaus desperation. Reckon #25 is a good spot to grab him, unless someone we rate in the first round slides out.

If he wants it enough, he's gonna be a fan favourite in a few years, wherever he ends up.

Should Brodie and Taranto be available for our 1st pick without doubt we should select Brodie. Gets in & gets the ball, would be a good fit with Murphy, Curnow and Cripps.
 
I know it's a fluff-piece, but I got sucked in anyway.

Sounds like a really respectful kid, takes his football seriously, has lived away from home and doesn't sound like a huge flight risk.

I'm on the SP-S train. All aboard! :bullettrain:
**** it. I'm sold.
 
I'd draft him for the rattie alone.

Anybody who can carry one of those around just doesn't give a ****.

We need that at Carlton.




He's also a damn good football player.

If there is one thing I learnt in 2017???

Don't let a rat tail with tatts into a Japanese restaurant.

Thanks
I'm more and more convinced we'll take Taranto in 2 weeks time.

I can see him in Navy Blue already.........it works. :)
Agree Harker I can just see SOS fall n love with romantics of having Silvagni X 3 and a Taranto all good Italian roots running area in Navey Blue it would just like the old days.
