I reckon Luko more of #17 type , and King should be #1 soon. Would be very smart to have the besties next to each other in the locker rooms
Ellis might already have dibs on some of those numbers, Zac smith too.
I’m old school, give the draftee high numbers and let them earn a lower number
 
I had no problem with Flanders skills but what a waste of time if he Is not best 22 for the first two year and request to go home because he is playing NEAFL. Not many young talent want to play NEAFl, espcially top 10 pick, Everybody predict Brodie request to trade back home this year luckyly he stayed for another two years.

Yeah you're right, we have plenty of young guns in the lower numbers anyways.

Zac smith should be 30+ wasted being a lower number

Flanders looks and sounds like a genuine flight risk. I'm curious about how much work we put into him given our respective picks. We're definitely putting our retention plans to the test that's for sure.

At the very least these guys are all quality. Agree with TSG in that no more project players is nice.

Sounds a lot more relaxed on the Suns site video. He spoke that way in interview pre draft that I saw yesterday with Cal Twomey and Riley Beveridge. Not overly concerned.

James Brayshaw IQ = 4

i think people were thinking the same of ely smith last year at brisbane, kept a fairly straight face and didnt show much emotion. re-signed with the club today. wouldn't be too concerned at this point, gotta give him a crack first and take it at face value.
 
Flanders is also from the country? from Gippsland Power, so would have had to move anyway. Think he is just a bit surprised and he probably hadn't considered the suns was an option (probably since he expected to go early.)
 
RE stupid sexy Flanders. The club obviously back themselves in to keep him, like they did with King, Luko and Rankine after we where told they wouldn’t stay. I’m stoked to have a genuine top 5 talent in the club along with the best 2 from the draft. We are building something very special up here fellers. It’s gonna be bloody hard choosing a round 1 team.

Yep, Gippy boys are fine with travel and moving. Big load of nothing out that way

Hope the Staff have booked a fancy dinner for the new lads and their family at crown. Imagine the energy with Dewy, Kal Burns, Craig Cameron, Luko, Kingy, Ranko, Rowelly, Ando & FLANDERSSSSSSS with their families all laughing at the AFL giving us back to back to back flags
 
I’m still waiting re Fiorini. There was a rude and disrespectful group pile on yesterday.
It goes to the culture of the board.
Is it ok to be rude and abusive if someone makes a statement that turns out to be quite relevant and factual.
If that’s ok around here then that’s not the GC I live in.
spoke to the fiorini family and have been told he is very keen to sign a new contract at the suns.

@Mr Bods maybe you went a bit early on insulting a player who loves the club huh?

You'll probably find he's had a change of heart given the amount of commitment other players have shown. Because my mail at the end of the season from an extremely high figure at GC was that they were worried about retaining him. It just shows you how quickly things can change though. It'll be nice having a full season next year not having to hear about whether we are retaining this player and that player. For the first time in a long time our boys will just be able to focus on playing footy and winning.
 
Are you positive it’s 5 spots? We have 8 rookies to note already.
Allowed 10 category A ,3 category B

have 7 category A already 3 vacancies

A) Budarick, Holman, Fletcher ,Riordan , Holman , Conroy, Rosa

No vacancies for B
B) Twomey, Heron , Dawson

Two remaining list spots, correct me if I am wrong
 
2 years ago we had zero match winners - lynch, maybe but was more your 3-4 goal guy every week.

Ablett was too much about himself.

Harley probably our only other previous guy.

Now, rankine, Anderson, Flanders, king (predicting him to have a 6+ goal game next year). You need those in your team.


So pumped.
