Recruiting EFC Trade/Draft Talk III - 1 McClug, 1 Billings (AND ROSS) for 4th rounder get it done dodoro

[Eleven 38]

Presumably Kelly would only play for us. But surely Dea will get other offers.

 

[Duckworth]

Still looks likely we'll get pick one, if you do the ladder predictor the Lions could lose by 60 points and still finish ahead of us (though only by 0.1%).

Sportsbet line is 57.5 points.

Hopefully they can sign up both Dea and Kelly as delisted free agents.

 

[ant555]

So we can pretty much come to a handshake agreement this week with Dea and Kelly and sign them day one when the period opens?

No need for even a handshake agreement. Dea is on record as saying he wants to stay with us and as a delisted FA he can nominate us and Kelly will play for us if he plays on. Will not go anywhere else. You can pretty much put Dea on the list and Kelly looks like he is considering playing as well.

I cant see Dea wanting to move clubs and go through that process again. Would be just getting used to the club and starting to feel settled. How could anyone want to leave this club after the reception they just recieved from the fans anyway? besides Hibberd*

 

[Highly Evolved]

I don't care who we get in the draft other than Dea. Just please get Dea.

Patton on fire tonight. Think he might be the interstate player we have apparently signed.

Next years draft already looks better than this years. Seen a lot of very promising young players the last few weeks. This weeks games didn't showcase many draftable players for this year.

Guys i need some clarity over this one. Do Brisbane have to choose acadamy player Jack Bowes with pick 1 if another club nominates him with their first round selection? Im not too sure

Bowes is in the GC academy. Also if he were, no.

Ok, well that clears that up. Cheers eth

Really like the look of Tom De Koning (Dandenong Stingrays) for next year.

Pretty much Drew petrie like.. big contested marking power full forward. Kicked 9 one game earlier in the seson before injury struck him down for a number of weeks

 

[Towno78]

I said that Bowes will get bid on by us if GC dont do the trade of 2 picks for pick 1. because if we dont he slips and they get him cheap. Bowes is just like simon black with a touch of pendlebury mixed in. And Ill say it again he has been managed this year, we havent seen his best. We have to police this Bowes academy pick. Brisbane wont, freos pick may end up at GC, carlton and richmonds picks may end up at GC too. Who knows.

Why do you say Brisbane won't ?
Being in the same state and being GCs no1 enemy, to me they appear the most likely to bid

I was using the ladder predictor, it said if Brisbane lose by 60 they'll finish 17th on 12 points and a percentage of 61%, we'll finish 18th on 12 points and a percentage of 60.9%.

What's his draft range you reckon?

There is a lot of good talls next year, from last week Morrisby was awesome for Murray and from today Hennes for Gippsland and Naylor for Northern, Naylor is listed at 188 but I think he has grown since they did measurements because he looks over 190. Plays very similar to Hurley and kicked 3 goals when swung forward

LP is overrated. It doesn't factor in for/against. If Brisbane lose 100-40 we finish 17th. It depends on for/against.

Wouldn't be mad if we end with Brodie and the Lions don't get a pp. Blues fans hid their spoons where the sun don't shine.

Brodie fills a need anway. I wouldn't be dissapointed with either Brodie or McCluggage tbh. Not a terrible position to be in hey

 

[WEEVZ]

He's playing on Firrito...

Or it could be that he's finally being used as the main forward, which is the role he's always meant to fill. Doesn't matter about the opposition team or who your direct opponent is, 11 goals (so far) in 2 games is nothing to turn your nose up at. Would love if we had someone alongside Joey capable of that...

As long as the lions don't end with #1 and #2 lol. If they end with #1 & 3 it hurts lolcarlton and lolrichmond more.

I know how percentage works mate.

If today wasnt a "O'Meara come on down performance i dont know what was!"

I thought that too during the game and also how could you consider Carlton, Melbourne, Richmond, North. All playing terrible and have no idea how to win a flag.
