Lol, I hate to labour a point but you sacrificed your academy kid for a rookie?!!
Thanks ferrisb had you bid in the 20’s you would have had yourself a shinny new Walker

Time for the Giants' third pick and I'll take a player who I feel is a pretty safe selection here.
Whilst he is not the highest ranked player left on my board, this is definitely his range (I have him ranked 10-20) and I feel he's clearly the least likely of the players I'm looking at to last to my next selection.
He may not be the most skilled player in this draft class but he's a bloody hard worker who is also pretty decent athletically and I feel as though through sheer will alone he'll be able to make a decent career for himself.
With pick 18 GWS selects Nathan O'Driscoll.
Back to RoyalParade for Collingwood's second selection.
With all due respect cos I love you...what rubbish... Arrow didn't even know who was on the board still !Arr0w walks to his own beat and I love that. He has his players he likes and the ones he doesn't. He's not one to pick kids just coz that's where they're rated.
IMO a true recruiter is backing his/her judgements and not just picking kids because they are rated by everyone else.
While it on the surface it seems nuts to pass on Gulden only to pick up Smith (who might have been available much later), Arr0w clearly wasn't willing to risk missing out on Smith. Going off TENACIOUS's reply (also subtle mention coz it's his turn), Smith would have been gobbled up before Arr0w's next pick. And it sounds like Arr0w would have been more bummed out missing Smith than Gulden. So he did things his own way and got the player he wanted. Job done.
Arguably we picked TDK waaaay before we needed to. But we wanted him and we got him. And now we couldn't be happier (although Arr0w would probably still rather have Constable )
Famous adage. “Many a true word said in jest.” ..........you cheeky gremlinCoona Blues - I hope TENACIOUS gave this back to you once he was done with it....
His draft prospects shaping as eerily similar to Dev Robertson 12 months ago.I am completely biased, but if he gets out this far, Carlton should trade up to select him. He is a gun inside player with solid speed and if he slightly improves his kicking skills, he will be great. Still solid for an inside midfielder.

I made an error matching for Coleman, because....brothers.
Would much sooner have Ginnivan when he was still there. Never mind.
We'll have years for things to play but wouldn't surprise me that the strike rate is almost as high in the 30-50 range as it will be for the 10-30 range.
From not really looking forward to the draft, I'm suddenly really looking forward to it.
Pick 45 - Hawthorn - Bid on Brandon Walker
I almost bid on Walker in the 20s. If he was at all a need for the Hawks, I would have done so happily.
While I still think the Hawks don't need him, he's too good a talent to pass up at this point.
TENACIOUS
Given Fremantle's list situation, this has only turned 51 into 45, because the remaining points would provide pick 64, and Fremantle already holds picks 62 and 63 as their last picks.Thanks ferrisb had you bid in the 20’s you would have had yourself a shinny new Walker

And through each of those phases, BF is there for us to waffle on about footy.
From the lead-up to each of those events, while the events are happening and all the wash-up post event....
It's like a full time job.
Scratch that, I don't think my full-time job pays me for as many hours as I spend on here....
I keep telling myself I'm out........and then I find myself back in. I wonder why?
We have a good board with many spirited and mostly well-meaning posters, even when guns are drawn. It's a good thing
Melbourne selects Fraser Rosman.
194 cm key forward. Can begin to come in as Brown falls apart.
Athletic, tall, plenty of upside. Another vic who missed his chance to show what he's got.

This kid could be something special
