I have a feeling Mac Andrew will slide a little.
Not suggesting he’ll make it to us necessarily, but I just reckon he hasn’t done enough to use a super high first round pick on.
WHy don't we all wait for Wednesday and Thursday night where the decision will be made.
What about not posting pics or gifs, how many words is that worth?Sometimes not posting is worth a thousand words. Definitely finding that with a few posters atm.
Maybe the real posting is the posts we didn’t make along the way.What about not posting pics or gifs, how many words is that worth?
If no one was around to witness a post not posted, was it ever not posted at all?Maybe the real posting is the posts we didn’t make along the way.

The issue from 2008-12 isn’t just the firsts - it’s that we detonated whole drafts. The only two players from that bracket who were of value for the flag were Gawn and TMac. Through our own incompetence we got nothing from the rest, either from direct value to the side or from trade.Okay which do we think was worse:
Melbourne:
versus
- 2007 - pick 4 for Cale Morton, pick 14 for Jack Grimes
- 2008 - pick 1 for Watts
- 2009 - picks 1 and 2 for Scully and Trengove, pick 12 for Gysberts
- 2010 - pick 12 for Lucas Cook
- 2011 - pick 12 for Mitch Clark
- 2012 - pick 3s and 4 for Hogan and Toumpas
- 2013 - pick 2 for Tyson and Salem
Collingwood:
Ours looks marginally worse…but only because of the three pick 12s from 2009-2011 I think. Left out guys like Strauss, Tapscott and Maroc for us but they probably have similar misses. De Goey, Treloar and Stephenson all played in a GF loss for Collingwood but I think I’d take not having made that GF over the drama/cultural implosion associated with those three. Freeman played zero games for them post draft, Beams nine post trade. Bit of Lucas Cook + Mitch Clark to it, except even we never f’ed anything up as badly as they did with Beams. Their record on top 10 picks alone is somehow worse than ours IMO. I’m not even sure I’d trade Salem alone for all of their garbage.
- 2013 - pick 6 and 10 for Matthew Schadenberg and Nathan Freeman
- 2014 - pick 5 for De Goey
- 2015 - pick 7 for Treloar
- 2016 - pick 7 for Treloar
- 2017 - pick 6 for Stephenson
- 2018 - pick 18 for Beams
- 2019 - pick 18 for Beams
- 2020 - future first rounder (pick 2) for two second rounders
JT mentioned in a piece prior to the draft that we'd look to move up from 17. Any idea who we had our eyes on?
Notwithstanding, very happy with JVR. Looks like he has really strong hands above his head, and has come on in the second half of the year following a bout of glandular fever.
geez. what happened there?
Very happy with van Rooyen. He was the one I wanted who was around the range. Looks a good player and a key forward is what we need depth in.

van Rooyen adds much needed depth in the KP department, wouldn't be surprised he is moulded as a defender considering we don't have much after Tomlinson/Petty/Smith
Already 91kg which is a plus
Forwards - B Brown, M Brown, Daw, Weideman, McDonald, Jackson
Defenders - May, Lever, Petty, Tomlinson, Smith
