Perhaps he's tanking hard so he can make it to West Coast's picks.

Doing a Darling.

 

[theyellowsash]

Essendon made the draft kids pay for their own coffee

melbourne offered them a spot on the list but only if they worked for free

That’s pretty amateur.

 

[Orange Agent]

Pretty brutal to make that public.

pre-draft smell to it....

 

[ArdentEagle]

Zane Trew has apparently been bombing in club interviews.

Sumich in a way confirmed that today when he said on radio that Zane has some growing up to do.

WC have told Zane exactly what (not) to say during said interviews

Unless West Coast trade up, somebody will take before the Weagles pick.

 

[Turbocat]

With less than a week to go before the draft I thought a rumour thread could be a good idea to post any whispers from journos and BF posters alike to help create some hype in the lead up.

First up

Matt Balmer from Fox Footy mentioned in his draft Chat today that Liam Kolar is a chance to be taken by the Tigers in the first round.

He also mentioned that Geelong are one of the clubs that have done the most work on SA KPF Kaine Baldwin.

Adelaide is stuck in a four-way draft quagmire. Each way out is paved with big upside, but there’s a few traps

One club’s in a four-way AFL draft quagmire. Each option has upside, but many traps

Logan McDonald has had THREE interviews with the crows, including with Leadership Development Manager Dan Jackson, Nicks and obviously Ogilvy.

Don't believe anyone else has had 3.

Na - No good.
Who wants a sook!

Yeah that part is only rumour but I took what sumich said as kind of giving it credibility.

Sorry if that wasn't clear.

 

[1990crow]

Can't see McDonald not being number 1 personally outside of JUH bid.

 

[KPWorld]

Logan McDonald has had THREE interviews with the crows, including with Leadership Development Manager Dan Jackson, Nicks and obviously Ogilvy.

Don't believe anyone else has had 3.

He also stated he spoke to the crows player welfare staff in one of these interviews.

Jack was hardly a massive slider he was drafted at pick 26 a priority pick for West Coast

Darling was rated in the top 3 for most of the year IIRC.

 

[blueiris]

Darling was rated in the top 3 for most of the year IIRC.

I Honestly don't remember him rated that highly I do remember him linked to the Lions at pick 25 though

 

[THE_GUN]

Hasn't been posted yet from earlier today but a Freo fan gave a rundown.


The full radio show should be posted in here eventually.

Sports Drive | SportFM

www.sportfm.com.au

Yesterday's show is there but not today's.

Sounding like he wants to slide all the way to the eagles pick #62 and Sumich wouldnt want that now would he

 

[nurries]

He was rated in the top 10 a year out before his draft then the WC pr machine stepped up

 

[Rockwell]

Yes there was a lot of bad press about him , between the end of the season and the draft . Fight at a hotel and end of school camp ( alcohol/girl)( think he was channelling JDG )
