VFL Past #62: Daniel Coghlan - 2016 VFL Captain

[Doss]

Will leave if he isn't drafted.

Not having a go here at all, but you sort of said the same last year.

Anyway, he should be drafted- bloke is a bloody good player. Baffling to me why he isn't on AFL list already.

I'd hope we're looking at giving him a rookie spot at the very least.

They were just saying this on radio.

Better than at least 2 starting 22 mids (Melksham and Howlett). Better than J. Merrett who plays a lot of footy for us. Better than O'Brien.

It's not a close thing for any of them.

His boot. Awesome kick of the footy. His clearance kick out off half back is a ripper.
Can read the play well and is smart with the pill.
Watching the game on the weekend every time he got it he did something positive with it.

Must draft.

What sets Zac O'Brien apart from Coghlan?

Very similar players

Coghlan's a better runner and a better kick.

Hardingham was talking up his chances of being picked up on SEN yesterday.

Geez, I really hope Essendon are seriously considering it.

Don't consider. Do!!

I think we'll have to take him in national draft.

What about a 4th rounder? Could have immediate impact, keep him away from other teams.

Sounds like Barlow v2.

 

[Doss]

So, Cogs has signed on for 2016 as well.

Guess that means the whole AFL thing isn't happening?

His mum told me yesterday he had a another year to go on a 3 year contract.

Disgrace he wasn't rookied. No idea what he has to do. Leigh Adams will have already rang him to get him across.

Has re-signed.

 

[Adam H]

Has re-signed.

Means nothing.

 

[Doss]

Oh, really?

 

[eth-dog]

I like how you said he'd return last year if he didn't get drafted and were wrong. I'll believe it when I see it.

He has been treated horribly.

 

[Doss]

If he thought he'd been treated that horribly why would have re-signed with the VFL side then?

Stop talking out of your backside.

Promised things that havent been followed through.

 

[Doss]

Proof will be in the pudding, I guess.

In retrospect we should have just delisted Kommer and taken Coughlan, but there are hard luck stories every year, he's definitely not the best prospect to go undrafted

His last two season's have been everything that was asked of him.

 

[Doss]

Who's arguing he isn't stiff?

I'd love it if we'd rookied him.

There are hard luck stories every year. You've got a track record of saying he'll leave when he hasn't ended up doing so; why should people take you seriously?

 

[Zach Package]

I don't doubt that, but at 24 without a real standout attribute it's a huge uphill battle for him.

If he was that draftable someone else would have picked him up
