It looks like there's a plethora of young KPD options this year. Plowman and Clurey will be long gone before our first pick but the likes of McIntosh and Smith may have the potential to slide. And if they don't, one would imagine Rodda will be still around come our first pick. Wouldn't mind Emmanuel Irra at pick #62 either, looks like an impressive prospect, question marks on whether he'll translate it to AFL however.

yes Irra would be a good get - had my eye on him for awhile / has x-factor and speed, which means he probably won't last till our picks, still I'm hopeful.

Not sure how this post relates to porn?
Football Porn?

EH..... can i have your thought on Jackson Ramsay..... East Perth colts were going gangbusters early 2102 and this guy was BOG but got injured.... got bundles of talent and plenty of speed.... play back and runs forward and kicks a goal.... not ready to go 2013 but could be there when Kerr, Embley and Selwood have gone and jeez he does look like he can play.
I only watched him play in the champs and he didn't get that much space to get into offensive positions like he did at Colts level.

Although he's very much duel sided i have question marks about his ability to hit targets by foot on a consistent basis. Even though he's a little outside he's very hard at it much like Cripps and Gaff. Who knows where he would rank if he didn't hurt his foot and managed to finish the season well.

Sounds more like Lecca's 2011 than Nico's to me. Here's the 47 goals he kicked, watch how many times he could've passed to someone in a better spot. Now... we don't mind so much because these turned out to be goals, but I wonder how many times he did the same thing to teammates and then missed the shot.

Realise I'm a bit slow to catch up, but you're complaining about his performance in that highlight package?

Reminded me how good he was. Had a better year than Hill's 2012

Goals 32 and 44 were right crackers! Fantastic watching those highlights - really whets the appetite for 2013.
Interesting to see the number of times Nicoski figured in the plays too. 'Tis amazing how well we did in '12 without them. 'Tis no wonder many pundits are tipping us for top 2.

Not complaining at all. Just pointing it out that forwards are selfish to an extent sometimes. I'm sure Andrew Gaze had open teammates when he chose to shoot the three-ball in each game he played, but c'mon. He's Andrew Gaze and no matter where he is, you want him to take the shot. Same thing with Lecca.

And that's not something I have a problem with. You want your forwards with the confidence to kick goals from wherever they are. Otherwise they end up useless, change their name to Lindsay and start playing for the Kangas.

List of players I can see us getting.

Brodie Murdoch- Looked at his bro strongly last year. Similar players and a chance to be there at 46.
Tim Sumner- Good size and athletic with obvious talent. Hard to tell if he can or could nail a particular role at AFL level so I can see him going later.
Laine Wilkins- As above.
Josh Saunders- Haven't seen his name mentioned much but I've seen him play a bit in Geelong and he's similar to Nathan Foley.
Nick Rodda- Already big and strong and looks a smart/reliable KD. Will take less time to develop if Brown still wants to leave next year which is handy.
Louis Herbert- Really naturally talented FWD. Great overhead and reminds me a bit of Gary Rohan. Built like the proverbial stick.
Dean Kent- Haven't seen him but he sounds likely.
