List Mgmt. Carlton's 2018 Draft Thread II

[Soapy V]

Have we picked Walsh yet?

 

[Mondyboy]

I’m really excited about nabbing Walsh. Some have said he doesn’t have an impact when he gets the ball. That may be so. But if we are relying on Sam Walsh to rack up 30 possessions each week then there’s something deeply wrong with the team.

Like Dow and Fish before him I’ll be happy if he averages 15 to 18 touches and has two or three magic moments.

Just got back from Hawaii, haven't been on here for ages but one of my favourite times of the year is upon us.

Noticed it's now not a lock we take Walsh like it was when I left, I will add though, can you really go wrong with either Walsh or Izak?

Both elite talents, can't wait till tomorrow night. [emoji16]

Welcome back. Expecting another amazing piece of artwork for our new draftees

 

[JohnnyFontane90]

... does Pickett’s latest set back increase the argument for Rankine?

To be honest i think it reinforces the risks of the 'x-factor' type player.

if we were 99% on walsh before that, we're 100% now

 

[thylacine60]

The air is really fresh up there when you are 6'9".

Or so I've heard....

where's my ****ing step-ladder........

 

[JohnnyFontane90]

Ball use is fine, not an issue.

Was rushed into his disposal because he hadn’t yet picked up the pace of the game.

The 12 games he got this year will do him a world of good going forward, much like Fisher in 2017 who also wasn’t ready.

fisher was not only a first year player in 2017 but possibly the most undersized first year player ever and still showed more than polson in his second.

I think polsons lack of penetration in kicking is a huge concern. might make it as a role player in a good side but hard to see him being more than that at this stage.

He’s a Cairn Terrier chasing parked cars atm.

Still bottom aged sorta.

Keep.

The magic that Rankine spins is mesmerizing totally different story.
Izak will be a very good to excellant footballer.
One can take it to the bank.

 

[thylacine60]

In the dungeon

oh yeah.....

 

[HereComesJuddy]

Cripps, Murphy, Dow, Fisher, Setterfield, SPS, LOB, Walsh etc...

We are a FA like Coniglio and another goal kicking mid next year (plus games into the kids) away from having a killer midfield.

Walsh is a no brainer imo. Kid is class and after this years draft, we arent too far off.

Very, very excited for him to be in navy blue tomorrow evening. Its another step in the right direction for our club.

 

[Blues_Man]

Yeah - can't see Rankine being the pick at 1.

Bare minimum, there should be enough talk about Walsh that Gold Coast offer up Pick 2 or 3 plus change. Whether that's a second rounder or two, or even the 2019 Brissy first rounder, if we actually want Rankine we need to be taking full advantage of the landscape this year and getting something else back.

I think the Brissy pick would be an ideal target.
GC just end up "upgrading" their draft hand for this year, rather than losing picks.
They probably get a top end compo pick next year because AFL reasons, so they can bundle a couple of handy kids with Picks 1 and 2.
We get Rankine and a valuable pick to use in trade negotiations for an established midfielder next year.

Go into next year's draft with 4-6 and 8-10.

Or we take a future gun with pick one this year

No doubt, will most likely be a gun...
However, Fev was a mesmerizing player, but I daresay most of us wish we had kept the ever reliable Kennedy instead.

 

[thylacine60]

anyone put this up yet?

Dogs pick to be first trade target

 

[Blues_Man]

And the Gun goes...........BANG!!

And it's firing blanks

 

[BlueView]

So if they want Smith does that mean hes the one that won’t go interstate? I hope someone thwarts them if they want to pull these crazy shenanigans...seems a little bit rich if that’s the case

Everyone thinks they are an expert at this time of year..Walsh will be called out number one ..i would put my house on it

 

[TheHeatleyStand]

Perhaps "probably" should have been inserted

possibly not probably

 

[Socrates2]

You should pick Lukakuis or Rankine .Walsh will be at the Murphy, Gibbs level whilst Lukakis could be the next Riewoldt or Josh Kennedy. Rankine could be like Gary Ablett senior.Another option would be to trade pick 1 ,for pick 3 and pick 22.The draft calculator says thats about right https://www.draftguru.com.au/pick-value-calculator#3,22| .Then you are guaranteed a gun and another long term player.
