Would lol

I want a couple of raw players with big potential upside. Was all about getting a KPD but I think since we still have Johnno this year we are probably ok. Will definitely need one next year.

Styles and Sambono/Kinthari.

Styles should give us one direction.

 

[Joao]

Styles should give us one direction.

Not sure that's a good thing? My little sister (massive Freo and at one stage 1D fan) might like it.

 

[Harry Reems]

Snoop Dog has us taking Aaron Darling. Small forward/mid and cousin of Jack. Sounds alright actually.

Hmmmmm..... Does he think he's a ninja warrior only to shit his pants in big games, throws his head back like a Pez dispenser and squibs contests?

 

[jerms]

Carlton taking a PSD pick.

 

[Mr Fonebone]

Chris Scott and Paddy Farrant for me please.

Have not seen either play except for a couple of You Tube minutes for Farrant mind you but they sound likely types.

 

[Nickos66]

Carlton taking a PSD pick.

Nope.

[jerms]

Nope.

http://www.afl.com.au/news/2017-11-27/no-preseason-draft-as-clubs-get-ready-for-rookie-fest

Yep.

 

[Lach72]

Yep.

Schloithe?

 

[Johnny Dalmas]

So we can expect Clarke, Collins and Suban to get picked up today?

Nope, I reckon their time in the AFL is done.

 

[jerms]

Schloithe?

Cam O'Shea has been training with them, but I doubt that he'd go between the PSD and rookie pick 3 (i.e. to us or Brisbane).

 

[Tonga Bob]

better than "pick" Butts

is he a KPP? i'd like him if he's big enough, and I cannot lie

 

[Harry Reems]

So we can expect Clarke, Collins and Suban to get picked up today?

West Coast continuing their trend at picking up delisted ruck men it seems, so Clakkas Clarke will be off to his old club of East Perth to replace Scott Jones and Jonathon Giles.

 

[M_rash]

We have cox,tabener,McCarthy,kersten,apeness,Dixon as our tall forwards surely we don’t need any more tall forwards. Unless we delist some of them but that won’t be for a while now you would think. For smalls we have ballantyne,Walters,matera and to the lesser extent crowden. If anything we need smalls. Ballantyne is almost done and Walters should be in and out of the midfield

Switkowski says hello. Small, goal kicking pressure forward from VFL - will be a great Ballas replacement hopefully.

Lol forgot about that new bloke. Still need a few more

According to the draft tracker, we have rookie picks 5 and 7, rather than 5 and 23? Anyone know what the go is there, or is it just a typo?



[edit: actually, it shows us having all of the Hawks' picks. Despite them needing to take three...]

 

[Lach72]

I'm all for it if that's the case

 

[Lach72]

And we really have pick 4 as Brisbane only have one pick and are re-taking Clay Beams

 

[Docker82]

Cam O'Shea has been training with them, but I doubt that he'd go between the PSD and rookie pick 3 (i.e. to us or Brisbane).

Could be that they have two players that they want that they may think will be gone by their second selection as well. I’ll actually put my hand up and say I liked O’Shea (assuming he’s the player in question) as a player and was surprised Port didn’t re-rookie him and even more surprised he went through the rookie draft untouched.

Other possible reason is a TPP mis-calculation, meaning they are below the salary cap floor but I doubt it.

We’ve got Hawthorns picks accordingly to draft tracker. It’s a typo.

 

[Lach72]

Cam O shea for Cartlton in the PSD

 

[jerms]

Well, there you go. O'Shea in the PSD it is.
