drafting period

[Grover]

I am pretty happy with the players we gott, i think Mott will be a very good player and help our rucking division tremendously.
as for bowyer he was good when he left the game a couple of years ago.
Kenna was a very good player in the games i saw this year.
as for the others i dont know much about

Will we pick anyone else other than stevens up in the PSD if so who?

Maybe we'll get Dylan Smith with our 2nd PSD pick?

Am content too, but still feel a bit exposed in the tall defender department. Paxman could useful for a year but imagine the flak we'd cop if we named him, just like Mick Martyn all over again!

the only tallish defender in the psd is seymour isnt it? might be worth a rosk as he is only 27

I think Carlton made it quite clear that they weren’t prepared to draft old players. (27yr is not old but he’d be a senior cit at Carlton) It seems that Pagan and the committee have faith in the young blokes, Thornton, Livo and Norman. I was told today that Thornton has bulked up 5kg and Norman grown a couple of inches?

He is not worth a risk or a rosk, just too old for us. We have to steer away from the practices of the past that got us into this trouble in the first place.

this is true, i just cant see livingston being any good ever. but id love to be proven wrong.

we will probably rookie list a couple of big backline players and leave the one spot on the list for angwin if he gets right

sad to say that too, i think livingston is a very good player, but gets put under too much pressure and given too much **** at carlton. i cant see him going to well with us, but i do think he'll do well at another club. possible trade option 2004.

27 isn't really to old. He would play atleast another 4-5 years and add some much needed experience down back. Livingston, Thornton, Norman, Sporn and Wiggins are all 22 or under and Lappin and Whitnal are needed up forward were they do most of their damage.

But how will our young guys learn if they don't have any experienced players?
