Game Day 2018 AFL Draft - Live Chat

[Mr Fonebone]

So there you have it - Sturt, Valente, Schulz, Bewdy, Carter and Watson as new players.

A good haul however I would have liked another KPD. If we had got that the list would have been well balanced.

I feel really sorry for Haiden Schloithe...





Said no one ever.

 

[youmewe]

i'll start- wtf is a Tobe watson?

...or not Tobe, that is the question.

I'm told he's happy to suffer the slings and arrows of outrageous fortune.

Time for him to get a decent manager

that was so bad I couldnt help but laugh

 

[ImperialPurple]

Tobe - quick pronunciation guide required, please and thank you.

 

[Freoforever86]

Love how Sumich says to draft a kid he’s the beat talent in WA and literally everyone over looks him.

Get a clue sumich. Can’t believe people want him to coach

 

[G Mus]

Tobe - quick pronunciation guide required, please and thank you.

Toby

Only two of my pre-draft top-50 (based off several phantoms) didn't get drafted:

#34 - Sydney Stack
#49 - Josh Kemp

I doubt Sydney missed out because of a lack of talent.

 

[Nickos66]

Pickett overlooked also.

 

[im_a_lazy_sod]

how do you pronounce "Nyhuis"?

Nigh-us

I think? Or maybe more Nigh-yus with a semi silent Y?

 

[youmewe]

Shakespeare wept.






For good reason.

Ny-house

 

[Bender571]

So it looks like the most talked about players on this board all struggled to meet expectation.

Hill, expected top be a top 10 pick - pick 24
Carter, expected to go in the main draft - Cat B rookie
O'Reilly , 3rd roundish - undrafted
Medhat, late pick to rookie - undrafted
Stack, 3rd roundish - undrafted
Pickett, late pick - undrafted

 

[stax on the mull]

Yeah the older fella was working as a chippie this morning, so he'll be hungry all right.

Same job as Luke Ryan when he was drafted.

 

[Purple Suit]

Who at Williamstown has photo's of Belly?

Shakespeare wept.






For good reason.

 

[FD2646]

I can’t understand that

Other clubs may have held an interest.....that surely must be the only explanation.

 

[Wizard]

O’Rielly completely overlooked?
We were all upset about missing him as a FS, had 5 cracks at him and still not interested.

So i guess that means weee not that upset anymore?!!

Clubs are getting sick of having to babysit players, talent only takes you so far.

 

[arsesmart]

Pickett, Schloithe etc probably always had their best chance in the mid-season draft.

 

[Sweetback]

Unfortunately being a massive dickhead may be curtailing Schloithe’s chances of realising his potential.

Must be sailing in medhats boat this arvo. They were overlooked for a reason. Musnt have been looked at as profesional enough.

 

[rgauci]

Have we left a list spot open for mid season draft?
