List Mgmt. Carlton's 2018 Draft Thread (cont. in Part 2)

[katmanblue]

Got no chance getting a PP unless you win 4 games or less in multiple seasons. Waste of time asking and sends the wrong message.

What message is that? That we are leaving no stone unturned? I'd be pissed if we didn't ask.

I would be pissed if we were in a position, that we had to ask

Of course we don’t have to ask. But there’s absolutely no harm in asking the question.

I would rather do it on our own merits

Progressive sustained growth, hasn't hampered the Cats, been competative for over a decade

And when our boys are standing on the dais lifting the cup I won’t care if the AFL gave us a pick, nor will it diminish the achievement.

Thats true, but how much sweeter would it be that we did it without a PP

How many priority picks did the Hawks have in their recent premierships?

Do you think they cared or it made it any less sweet?

 

[Iamcarlton]

Loser mentality PP discussion starts before Rd 1 seriously WTF!!
Nice vote of confidence in the side for the coming year

As i said, Cats have done it for years without a PP

It's called drafting and list management

Four weeks early

If there was ever an acceptable excuse for tanking its, Mesers Jack Lukosius or Izak Rankine either of this lads will be absolute Superstars.
Wonder how much persuasion or pressure if any the bottom 5 teams will need to entertain tanking?

Compensation enough if GCFC falls flat and loses Lynch to FA (though think that Collingwood would need to trade for him), the ol’ 1-2 thank you very much.

Wouldn't tank for Rankine, who is in a pool of 1/2 dozen quality mids

Well let's say one wouldn't knock back Rankine , but yes agree with you Lukosious is amazing and I would accept a team's tanking for him.

Disgusting attitude.

It's a bit rich talking about Geelong and the draft. Their premiership side of recent times was built on the back of some very handy father sons.

In recent times they have persistently traded out first round and later draft picks to get in players from other teams.

Something will have to give you would think

Probably a shoulder

Are you serious! You dont win 3 premierships on the back of a couple father sons . Their drafting in particular and trading preceding and during their successful period was sensational ...

I agree the father son rules back then gave sides like Geelong, easy access to very good talent, so be it.

Yes, they have been trading in experienced players over recent times, due to the composition of their list, but Wells still selected talented kids in this latest draft

I wouldn’t tank for anyone.

Jack Martin was an freakish junior like Rankin. Good player but wouldn’t risk destroying the culture of the club for a skinny midfielder

Agreed, wouldn't tank for any player, not the culture i want

 

[Monkey King]

The kicking skills of Hill are sublime. He has that ability to manipulate the trajectory of his kick so that it drops off at the end into the right spot. Not many players can do this.

This is my only visit to this board until September at the earliest. I love that we have SOS and his team who are looking at this draft, 2019 and 2020 already because they are the best in the business. I am also hopeful that we are in the back half of the first round and that could be anyone at this stage. I also hope that BSOS et. al. live up to the billing and don't cost too much in terms of bids.

Not for a whole year, but if it comes down to the last game? Like the Kreuzer cup?
