Draft day discussion thread

Why the concern about a small forward?

Mark LeCras is a gun and his crumbing is improving.

I reckon some of you just wanted a nippy little black guy...

 

[Biggie]

Bennel went at 35

There are 2 Bennels.

Jamie & Johnny

 

[Brazen]

whats with the commentator moaning every time a name is read out??

 

[WCE57]

Leigh Brown? Why Pies WHY?

 

[Embers]

Looking further ahead

Rookie draft pick 2 Adam Cockie?

Hmm what do you mean by that?

I was looking for an opportunist SF, but yes I do believe LeCras will service us well.

I guess hard, disciplined working player >>>> flashy in and out player ala Sampi

I meant it's been a few years since we've had a Sampi style of player and that type are always popular players (black or not..).

LeCras is a gun, I know people have talked about him being pushed into the middle but he has the potential to be a great forward - he'd probably only be a decent midfielder. Leave him where he is!

Was Shuey earlier than expected? I don't think I'd heard him for top 30

 

[Frodo]

Looks like we've had a good draft.

Plenty of midfield run and natty.

 

[mitchzz]

DeBoer, Sharples and Sibasado all not picked up. Pick 2in the rookie draft?

 

[Keys]

There are 2 Bennels.

Jamie & Johnny

Shouldn't be allowed

Are they twins, if so we should get the other one - we always end up the best twin (Adam > Troy, Mitch > Nathan)

Burgan had him at 28, and as early as 15 in his 'range'

Maybe a tad but was a certainty to go top 30.

One of those guys who is highly regarded by recruiters but didnt get much coverage on Bigfooty hence the lack of profile. A very good solid pick. Very quick and wins the hard ball.

Yeah, I like the sound of him....

 

[Brazen]

Cornelius was still there at 52... was surprised we didnt look at him either

 

[Quinz]

Very pleased with our new players, our club has done a fantastic job yet again.
