Draft Day

[MickyCrow]

Hey guys, question: Who do you think we should target on draft day? ( Jay Van Berlo is a given )

Seriously thou. Unlesss something catastrophic goes wrong, Brad Ebert and James Wundke should be long gone by our first pick, and we stocked up on KPP forwards last year, so who should we target?

Personally, I thonk we should go after Tom McNamara from South and Dylan Jessen from Centrals, good strong quality lads with something we dont have much off, a fair bit of mongrel in them

So what do you think?

if we draft jesson the club has lost it, the bloke is highly overrated and is pretty much a thug, seen him plenty of times, is a bit troubled to by some reports a definite pass. MacNamara im not sold on yet, not tall enough to play kpp at afl and probably not good enough for a midfield role

Ball crumbing forward x 2. Midfielders rest.

Two small explosively quick blokes are a must. The other two or three picks are up to the club.

Wouldn't mind snatching up blokes like Ebert or Wundke though.

Mitchell Farmer from Calder was very close to to being taken as a bottom aged player last year by the crows. They have since been in regular contact with him and have indicated to his father that they will deinately draft him if available.

What sort of player is he?

This kid is a very good player...well balanced, reasonably quick and seems to have plenty of time when he has the ball. Appears to be a very solid no frills footballer.

its definately true, trust me jesson will be lucky to get drafted. so far i have seen a fair bit of this year 18s squad and there actually dont seem to be that many that will really make it, take out wundke, ebert, macnamara and greenwood and i would suggest there will be very few else that get drafted. i know i said i dont rate mac but he will still get drafted, good athlete and clubs like this. Greenwood is an absolute gun, made his league debut on the weekend and played very very well for the maggies.

I would love us to have the number 1 pick in the 08 draft, there is a kid by the name of Hamish Hartlett running around who will go number 1 next year, he is better at the same age as gibbs and deledio and dare i say it even probably judd!! if he hadnt broken his ankle at the end of last year would be playing league for west, clubs were ringing to get him to nominate last year but was to young and is again this year... he is the perfect size midfielder with superb skills and great courage.

last year in an under 17s final when he was 15 or just turned 16 i saw him when his team was struggling early stand up and kick 6, including 3 from 40+ under pressure on his left and he is a right footer, the kid has freakish talents. me and my mates joke that he will play an afl game before his brother
