His performances at the Combine and late in the year have rocketed Bonar into first-round calculations. It would be a surprise to see him still on the board into the 20s now, and there are also whispers he could sneak into the first dozen.

True , but being Carlton they will have natural attraction for trade targets once they come good .

I think GWS may have peaked already
ExactlyWith all the player departures in recent years, the talent at GWS is drying up. Combine that with some nearly-finished mature players and it's not looking as good for them.
They certainly don't have the massive stockpile of young talent outside their best 22 that they once did

Only thing is, we look at the mature top picks they already had last year (Kreuzer, Gibbs, Murphy etc) and they weren't that good.Carlton are going to have a dynamite side sorry to say
Trading promising young players for unders 90% of the time probably hasn't helped them.With all the player departures in recent years, the talent at GWS is drying up. Combine that with some nearly-finished mature players and it's not looking as good for them.

He's not enough of a lock down but he's a great intercept playerWho was it that was saying Oscar Claravino was "only" a lock down defender??
JJ was on AA this year and said the only thing holding Doedee back was his disposal and he would have been given a run if not for this, once that is cleaned up he will get his opportunity I commented on it at the time on thsi board
I watched him against the bays and it stood out like dogs balls critical time coming out of D and it was turned over thank god or the bays would have lost
Keep thinking what you like its the only thing holding him back, why do you think he has been given a game in two years? Because they dont like his haircut!
I've got Oscar ranked late 20's in my power rankings. Definitely a very good interceptor on his day, he's one that could definitely play a role as a very good intercepting 3rd tall defender, or potentially as a 1st or 2nd KPD, down the track.Agreed, someone we'd only look at with Pick 39 if at all but I certainly noticed when he played here against the Rebels in August Oscar was a far more rounded player than I'd seen last year, needs to work on his core strength which in a professional environment is very achievable.
It was me ......and that was b4 this quote from BishopWho was it that was saying Oscar Claravino was "only" a lock down defender??
Clavarino I have concerns over, at times he's timid/soft - and he drops a lot of marks. One List Manager said at the start of the year they wouldn't draft him. So it's definitely a concern.

Now people over reacting to their relatively down year this year. Where they came top 4 despite big injury problems
If they can get a clear run with injury, and with a more mobile forward line, they are set for a strong year
Smith the only meaningful loss. And he hasn’t put together an injury free run for ages, so it’s not like they are losing someone they have relied on during the last two years
Don’t think losing Hoskin-Elliot or Matt Kennedy will be a factor.
Still lots of talent there from Kelly and Shiel and Cameron through to Taranto and Setterfield...
We are so unpredictable with the draft its kind of refreshing compared to team selection.
Fogarty or Bonar wouldbe great gets imo. But it wouldnt surprise me if we reach for a kid we know **** all about. Hamish has a good eye.
Terrible playerSo, we gonna give Michael Talia a rookie spot?
I think it might be worth it. Daniel is an elite "preparer" so could end up being a good example for him and he could be ok.
