2017 Draft rumours

[Dysfunctional]

Lol you mean ANOTHER rebuild?

High draft picks dont successfully complete a rebuild. Ask gibbs, murphy and kruezer....

As I said we’re in a better position for the future than north are and that’s fact. Not going to carry the argument on as that is not what this thread is for as it’s been stated numerous times.

All Carlton need is to sort their KPP out and add an elite mid or two to help Cripps and they are making the 8

More about our KPP forwards to be honest. Harry McKay has shown some glimpses, and we all know what Charlie Curnow can do.

We do like our rebounders but we've stated that Crozier will be played back, while we have JJ, Wood, Suckling, Bailey Williams etc to fit in the back half with some mobile KPDs like Cordy & Adams and have just taken Trengove as a FA.

Some of the draft watchers think Richards has midfield potential and I really think we need a genuine burst mid. If Bonar gets anywhere near his potential on a needs basis he'd be great for us too.

I would have thought Bonar or Stephenson as a walk up replacement for Stringer would be ideal. Pies pick 6 and Dogs pick 9 are two that really intrigue me because I have no idea what they will do!

Piece of cake!

Dow and O’Brien will help with that. One more year at the draft and we’ll be challenging

It’s official haha. Welcome to the Blues Paddy

 

[Tandy]

I'd say Carlton have told him they'll take him at 3.

If I ever need anyone to stalk an ex, can I hire you?

I don't want to say it on the Pies board because I'll get kicked and stabbed but I really don't want Darcy Fogarty - incredibly bad feeling about him with injury or go-home and I simply don't rate him that highly. Naughton please, or if we're going for an attacking mid, Stephenson and Bonar are both better than Fogarty.

Luckily the top pick (likely) in next year's draft looks a gun and he's a tall.

Yep. Best to be patient with a rebuild and get it right.

Exactly mate. So many impatient fans that just expect results straight away even though close to 30 players turned over in the last few years. They have no idea.

We are interested in Darcy Fogarty but I don't think he'll be available at our pick.
We are really keen on Coffield who seems set to be a Saint.

We tend not to replace purely like for like - otherwise we would have kept Crameri if we wanted a Stringer replacement.

Got Ben Silvagni coming through as a father son next year and he’s already a monster. Bigger than his old man two years ago. 190 something and 90 something kilo and has huge talent. More skilled than Jack

Cheeky and not so subtle dig there but I'm still bullish with Cripps and Curnow coming back into the engine room.

Ben who? I heard that he's easily the least talented of the Silvagni's and has already established an injury-ridden junior career. 4th round at best.

Lions not drafting any midfielders with any of our top 20 picks seems strange especially when we've heard from the club all off season is we're targeting midfielders

Fogarty/O’Brien/Contsable all mid types that you’ll consider

Don’t know where you heard that. He’s easily the most talented by far

SOS keeps them hidden that’s why no one ever knows much about them but trust me he’s an absolute future gun

Also if you take shortcuts it just doesn't work!

That was the joke.

Talk him down to not have to give up as many points.
