2017 Draft rumours

[StCicatriz]

Has probably just been reading our boards where very few want him.

You'd hope the pies want him although I think the West has come creative licence

 

[StCicatriz]

Dude. You have Jed Anderson.

Shut your mouth.

Hahahahaha

 

[HBF]

Hopefully fall to Pies 3rd rounder, #39.....

Or to Carltons pick 30.

SPS said last year he wanted to play in Melbourne for a big Victorian club. Must be a W.A. thing.

Going back a bit further, Chris Yarran wanted out of WA also.

 

[TerryWallet]

Naughton's comments and the timing is the same as SPS last year. He will be Collingwoods pick. And i think an excellent pick too. No.5 on my rankings board.

So he hasn’t actually said he won’t play for Fremantle, but he’d love to play for Collingwood. Would love to know the question leading to that one, seems a lot like what Brander said a month ago when they published a line from him saying he’d love to go to Collingwood without the context of what he was actually asked to spark the comment.

It's Aaron Naughton, has nominated Collingwood as his club of choice.

i hope it's both of them

 

[Pykie]

Hahahahaha

Maybe he's talking about Richmond?

Why would Brander want to go to Collingwood when he's a West Coast supporter?

 

[The Old Dark Navy's]

Call me conservative, but Carton telling Raynor to cheat before he's even reached the Club would be a new low, even for them.

Has that been suggested somewhere?

 

[Crazy Tails]

He hardly said he wouldn’t go to Freo but that he’d prefer to play in Melbourne.

He grew up in Vic and moved to WA when he was 10 so would still have family connections here you would think.

I think the biggest reason for his want to land at Collingwood might be hidden in this pic in the following article!

Apart from a few sardonic posts on our board, literally nowhere.

Almost makes me want to see Rayner slip though

Why would Treloar want to go to Collingwood when he was a Carlton supporter?

He must be fuming he ended up at a minnow club then.

I imagine Collingwood would have had a chat with him before this interview. No way he just randomly comes out and specifically nominates them a week out from the draft without some assurances. That would be the worlds dumbest move ever made by a bloke hoping to play a professional sport for a living.

Buckley.

Implied.

Hooked him!

 

[adammania9]

Come on down, Naughton!

Also North Melbourne might ruin West Coast’s party and select Tim Kelly at 23 so it could be do or die at 21 for West Coast if they want him.

After watching multiple highlights of the draftees I get the feeling that after pick 30ish it gets very very shallow.Finding a diamond in the rough would be very low.

Basically confirmed the original post. Congrats on having 2800 more members than what is acknowledged league wide as a minnow club.

Have always admired the Dogs, but that is interesting arrogance from a club supporter, with one flag in 62 years
