List Mgmt. Draft Discussion 2016

[Gangnam Saint]

Getting the feeling Barrels does not want to add to any hype for fear it may turn the one we want into a draft bolter.

 

[Barrels]

Does he like venables?

Doesn't everyone?

 

[Glen Buterol]

Doesn't everyone?

What draft range do you see him going?

Top 10, to mid teens at the latest.

I don't know, do they?

 

[Barrels]

You tell me.

 

[crasha301]

You tell me.

Are you saying what I think you're saying?

No point even thinking about him anymore. Same with brodie.

Yep. They'll go before our picks.

McGrath, Venables, Scrimshaw... Possibles like Taranto and Florent... That's where our money is.

 

[Tom_Wilson_55]

After yesterday's efforts it's glaringly obvious what we need...
Players who can kick the pill!
Bugger pace, size and athletic ability - bring someone in who can kick the ball with some bloody confidence, please and thank you.

Gallucci my 2nd fav with 21 disp and a lazy 5 goals on the weekend.

Just leaves me cold. Very disappointing during the Champs.

Dylan Clarke with 36 disposals and 9 clearances too, although he's a fair bit like what we've already got (Ross, Dunstan, Armitage).

Happens to a lot of kids, under perform at the Champs but some improve drastically afterwards. If he can keep up that sort of form I'd happily take him.

Reminds of NOK, both the good and the bad, with better skills but less ball-winning ability.

Will go between our picks IMO.

Possibly the best thing we have going for us at the moment is that we have Billings, Sinclair, Webster and Lonie (not to mention Carlisle and Goddard) out of the team at the moment, with all of them projecting like best 22 types going forward. So once they're ready, they will inject a hell of a lot of skill, class and vision into the team and make us look a hell of a lot more polished.

Then there are the likes of White and Rice developing down back who might also be best 22 going forward and they also have very good to elite kicks on them.

Still needs to be a key focus at the draft and trade table, but we need to just keep in mind who we have out of the team at the moment and how much they will improve us in that area when they return.

After the weekend, who would you pick out of Scrimshaw and Venables?

How does Florent compare with Simpkin?

Probably still Venables as he's got more scope to play on the ball.

Florent is probably a bit less 'energetic' than Simpkin, and not quite as quick. Florent is a shade bigger though.

I"m worried about Venables's ability to get enough disposals

He'll fit right in!

 

[FlyingSledghamer]

Who would you guys pick from a pure pace and skill percpective out of the midfield?

 

[DGontheQT]

Venables won't be like Murdoch will he in looking fantastic with his 10 disposals every week.
