Why is the second coming going so late? Surely he is Top 10?

When Hine talks about best available player, hes not talking about a list based on bigfooty or media consensus. He's talking about Collingwoods draft wish list. We took Grundy because he was the highest remaining player on the Collingwood wish list. We took Stepho for the same reason. The question is how many names were between Stepho and Murphy? The rumour is not many, if any. Him being invited to the top 10 hoopla supports that rumour. We'll never be sure where Hine rated him, but him going at 39 is irrelevant to Hines ratings. I personally believe the rumour. It was all the talk pre and post draft and is supported by an invitation.

It really is irrelevant anyway. Regardless of the aura that is attached to top 10 pick, Murphy would be the same player whether he went a 6 or 39.
We are probably talking about 2 different things. I’m not doubting whether Hine had Murphy on his list. What I’m saying is that other clubs rightfully or wrongly didn’t rate him as highly as Hine. If they did, he wouldn’t have got to our pick 40. If Hine rated him higher than Stephenson, it would have been disasterous at this point in time. Could be a different story in 5 years time.
 
Thank God he'll be thereabouts at 35 re.

If we pick him up.. expect a 'hohohoho you f beaaauuuuty' from the front of the gallery re.

I think I've got a nice bottle of Ouzo hiding somewhere in the cabinet - I'll drag it out and do a couple of shots (with a rousing Yamas!) if we pick him just for you Gimp...
 
Slight diversion, but I still find it quite humorous that Carlton have Stephen Silvagni as their guru chief list manager. Handed everything on a platter at GWS and still managed to fk up early picks. The wingard miss stands out like dogs balls, along with a multitude of top ten failures. Reckon throw any one of 6 other top recruiters into that club at the time and they land 1 / 2 flags by now.

Have any of his clubs ever made finals whilst he’s in their employ? Whilst he keeps landing early picks to work with as a result...
 
Appreciate that.

I took 2 because I actually dont have much faith in Cox and he is 28 and Mihocek is 26. Beyond that we have no prospects for that section of the ground whereas we have plenty of cover in other areas. Equally I think they are different styles of players so I would get them both. Also think has to be done in this draft bc doubt we will get access to one next year unless we can via FA.

Re Jeka - I would be ok with us taking him but the mail on him is the intensity levels are not where they need to be. When I watched him last year I would have taken him there and then but something has happened this year and he just doesnt have that same look about him. Who knows what could have happened to I would back Club as they have done their homework. I could probably find out if wanted to. Lets see if we take him.

Re your last point - watched a lot of Cameron. He aint a forward and besides Wilson I dont really rate the rest.

What mail you been hearing who Collingwood are looking at Snoop Dog ?

Yeah, there are a few drafts there worth reading how many of his top picks are now delisted. Has a shocking track record. Looking forward to seeing which player he picks tonight.
 
Knightmare Phantom Draft

39. Collingwood -
Nick Bryan (VIC)
Height, Weight:
202cm/87kg
Profile: Bryan is a mobile ruckman with a good leap. He is clean at ground level, reads the ball well in flight and will often get a kick behind the ball to take intercept marks.


50. Collingwood - Jake Riccardi (VIC
)
Height, Weight:195cm/96kg
Profile: Turning 20 in November, Riccardi showed positive signs in the TAC Cup last year as an overager and has made meaningful progress this year in the VFL. Riccardi is a strong marking, athletic key forward and won the Fothergill-Round-Mitchell Medal as the VFL's Rising Star.


57. Collingwood - Kaden Schreiber (VIC)
Height, Weight:
188cm/79kg
Profile: Hard working defender and outside midfielder who uses the ball consistently and demonstrates vision, placing passes out in front of targets to lead onto. Schreiber has an uncommon knack for finding space to move into to provide a marking target.

Let's hope KM is off the mark with some of those selections - we basically have nobody sliding to us at our first pick in his phantom draft. :(
 
There's no way on earth we are picking a ruckman in the draft. How many do we need?
Roughy, Moore, Cox, Grundy - some would say we play 4 in the senior team. so another 4 for cover sounds about right. We'v got Lynch and Cameron as cover - thus we need to draft another 2...:think::drunk::drunk::drunk::drunk::drunk::drunk::drunk::drunk::drunk::drunk:

that’s not quite correct. There will be a fair bit of overlap in each club’s top 20 players.
I’d be surprised is it wasn’t at least 70%.
Take in to account clubs who rated him but didn’t have a pick in the range and the picture becomes clearer.

Interesting that he has us taking another ruckman at 39.

Going of his draft I'd rather Riccardi at 39 and taking players like Cahill and Sharman at 50 and 57.

I would. Imagine using your first draft pick on a ruckman when you’ve just recruited one and upgraded another from the rookie list while you’ve already got the best ruck in the league about to hit his prime. Bizarre selection.
 
Slab was out at midday re.. you're almost 2 hrs late mate.
You're doing it all wrong man!

Vegemite in the fridge, slab out of the fridge.
