Has to be a front half pressure player, doesn't it?
We've already got probably 2 too many talls on the list, and we've addressed that inside midfield need already so a fair few of the ones that are seen in that 25-40 bracket probably aren't too relevant for us now, potentially a different story if we take Dovaston instead of Sharp, but I am not unhappy about that at all.
I like Mikunda, Hibbins-Hargreaves is a massive could be anything or could be nothing type player but I could see it. Rosa may lean on the WA connect again and go Fred Rodriguez based off underage form as a bit more of a zippy, run and carry mid.
Other left field one would be a ruckman depending on who gets through, if Emmett is there I could see it, could also see us going full 'days of yore' and taking Krasnadamskis with the sole justification being the last time we won a flag we had a Lithuanian on the list.
At picks 5 and 6, which I was right no ?
If we are looking for a small forward with our last pick (and we should be) I think we should go for Talor Byrne. Great kick, good goal sense, left-footer. We still need that goal-kicking small. We've lost Smartt, Davey, Menzie. Gresham and Guelfi aren't long term answers to help Kako. We should draft for need with this last pick.
Quote me now ChamboNo way we would pick Dovostan at 10? I don’t believe that for a second, Essendon would select Farrow at 10 and would hope Sharp fell at 13 if they did it. Essendon would select Pickett at 13 if Dovostan didn’t make it, and these Code sport guys were saying Sharp and Schubert to us at 5 and 6, whilst we were 100% trading 21 and 27 for 18 and 36.
Another one ChamboIf we trade up picks 21, 27 and 30 for Schubert, I’m Rosa out and the whole list management team. This is the most obvious flop I’ve seen since Tsatas at pick 5, I’m not gonna be happy at all if this the case. However, Cal hasn’t mentioned his name to us yet… he’s linked us to small forwards and maybe running the risk of letting a player slip to 9 with Melbourne potentially not selecting them.
If fox footy is correct and Robey/Cumming are the players they take. I’d be selecting X.Taylor and Farrow at 5 and 6, and I’d run the risk with Sharp at 9 as I don’t think Melbourne will select him, if he does get taken then you go the small forward route at 9.
Not sure if a ruck is a pressing need but it never hurts to have someone developing in the VFL if the opportunity presents to grab someone we like the look of.
I suspect the most likely outcome is another small forward in addition to HEA.
Cats need to put respect on my name. It’s poetic that they went in the order they got drafted in too.He’s a f****** baller, most obvious player to succeed. People rating Sam Cumming over this guy makes my blood boil, Farrow has to be one of our picks. Robey > Farrow > Taylor > Sharp > Dovostan is the player order I want for us.
settle down mate, whatever happens I'm pretty sure Rosa knows more about these kids and their ceiling than you
looks like Matty Rosa agrees with my ball knowledgeThere's a fair difference between some armchair expert throwing darts based on youtube highlights and a list manager collating scouting reports from all over the country, conducting interviews and analysing long term list needslooks like Matty Rosa agrees with my ball knowledge
In more good news we’ve taken them straight to the pub to get plastered. Onya boys.
I'm just quoting you saying we won't take Robey and Sharp when I said it was looking that wayQuote me now Chambo

Give us who we should take tonight?Cats need to put respect on my name. It’s poetic that they went in the order they got drafted in too.
Sully the new brand ambassador for DRYP?Hearing that sully put his arm around Zach and said it’s my team now.
Looks like everyone was there.Kako was at Sweid's house last night, Huss was sitting right next to him when drafted.
Community is important
