A Very Early Phantom Draft!

[dasler]

I'd imagine he would be at the state screening Squeak. Wasn't impressive when I've seen him play but by all accounts has been very good all year. On the strength of that and how good his old man was, i think he would be in with a chance. Probably more realisticly a rookie.

Dasler,

when will we get to see your phantom draft?

Baby Peake will most likely be drafted by Freo under the father/son rule. His old man played 304 games for the Sharks and 66 for Geelong, meaning Geelong are unable to draft him under the father/son rule. If he is half as good as his old man, we will have another high quality player on our hands.

P.S. Dasler, of course you'll say your unimpressed with him, being a Bulldogs supporter. The thought of Bomber Peake destroying South Fremantle in the 1979 WAFL GF must still be running through your mind.

1.Bulldogs-Cooney
2.Carlton-Kepler
3.Melbourne- Chaplin
4.Bulldogs-Tenace
5.Melbourne-Watts
6.Richmond-Mclean
7.Geelong-Dunn
8.St Kilda-Clarke
9.Roos-Sylvia
10.Hawthorn-Ray

Top 10 Smokey- Matthew Spencer-WA (Wafl Colts B&F)

You might have forgotten a bloke by the name of Matt Moody from WA the guy from all reports is a gun. Should go top 3 or 4, On Brock Mcclean i think he has the tools to go far, he isnt super flashy in any areas of his game but is a fantastic leader and someone you want on your side. Is a future captain of the club who picks him up, has leadership written all over him, if you thought say Judd was a good leader multiply by about 10 times and there Brock.

cheers

Judd is the least likely that I would say is a leader.

Why the **** does everyone think we will pick talls AGAIN in this year's draft?

I just don't fathom it. In the last two drafts we have selected...

Molan, Rogers, Miller, Smith, Rivers, Ferguson. 6 talls in 2 drafts, and all players with potential. Our obvious problem is midfield. Don't say our problem is down back and forward, as these young guys can't be expected to hold down key posts yet. Give them another year or two and they will be fine.

So all these "draft experts" haven't analysed the team needs properly. We need midfielders you blind bastards, not talls!

Beats me.

I think the only way Melbourne will select a tall if you trade White or Jamar or Jolly. Then you will have a crack at Bradley otherwise I think Melbourne will draft 2 midfield type players capable of playing forward and back.

Finally, someone with some common sense!

Even if you do barrack for Adelaide!

captained vic metro so hes obviously got some leadership qualities

 

[Falconer02]

Does not mean he was good leader is a fringe player and is not very team orientated like a hird voss riccutio archer.

 

[dasler]

You wont see one either jonathon as it is to close to call and the draft camp hasnt been on yet either.

Of course, in junior footy the best player is nearly always named captain. I don't really see Judd as a leader. Doubt he will be the next West Coast captain anyway.

Was Hird,Voss,Buckley and Crawford ever juniors??? its were it all starts, at juniors. He shows a tremendous amount of leadership for a 19 yr old.
