List Mgmt. Happy Draft Day 2016

[PapaJ]

Well...that's a surprise...must be taking a lot of rookies

Good news for Deluca and Grey, maybe?

 

[Kram]

I'm really confused what GWS want deBoer for. I'm so glad he's continuing his AFL career but what would he do at the giants?

With a lot of Toby Greene type faces at the club they need some help attracting female fans.

 

[UFO Tatsu]

Anyone thought Hawks picking Mitchell Lewis was funny?

 

[Purpellian Anchor]

t

Hawthorn replace Lewis and Mitchell with Mitchell Lewis!!!!

he grieving process does funny things re mitchell lewis think Peter German had something to do with Luke Ryan's selection highly recommended

 

[Taylor]

I wonder who is out of contract at another club...

Nah I've been in their changerooms. they're doing OK

 

[danstar]

Toby Greene has the most punchable face in the AFL so they needed a balance out with de boer, i think the 2 cancel each other out. Im happy for de boer

Well I thought Cox and Ryan would have gone earlier, but had no thoughts on the big fella. Happy with Logue. Good draft. Cox, Ryan and Logue could all debut this season.

 

[mightydockers]

So we've got Collins, Hamling and Pearce yet we go after 2 key position defenders with 2 of our high picks. Very confused right now.

Must say getting Cox and Ryan at all let alone with those picks surprised me as did the Darcy selection. Nothing against Darcy as a selection, just thought he could've come later. Disappointed we didn't use a fifth selection. Logue should've been an obvious selection and we went that way as were Cox and Ryan when they were somehow still there.

Overall very happy with the draft overall. Bring on Monday to complete our list.

Reckon we think Logue can play midfield.

Both offer a lot more offensively and Cox has been talked about as a potential forward as well.

Has Rhys Stanley signed yet? Those were bizarre rumours...

Cox is built like a train in the shoulders for a young man, marks like he has sticky hands. Looks amazing at speed.

They are getting revenge on us for the Cam McCarthy situation.

Basically, They are using Tough Man Tony Abbott tea Bagging tactics on us again!

 

[Purpellian Anchor]

suspect that if waited on Darcy to a later pick we may have missed the opportunity as probable that a few clubs were interested in him late 3rd early 4th

 

[Freomaniac]

Weags laughed at us for getting a Cox, but they picked up a little Willie. Fair play

Yeah.... And we still have a big Johnson...

 

[Purpellian Anchor]

pretty rapped with Cox i believe he is a first rounder and probably would have gone if Logue and Scrimshaw had not been in the draft so we have really two in the top 15 imo

 

[Clinteaux]

Hawthorn replace Lewis and Mitchell with Mitchell Lewis!!!!

According to a Hawks mate He wore 53 at Calder cannons. Mitchell #5 Lewis #3!

Surely trolling your fans is not a good draft strategy by the Hawks

 

[Freomaniac]

So apparently Logue is an overager as well , Turns 20 in April next year.

No skin off my nose... So most times players have debuted at 18 or 19 and play 12 years of Top league footy and retire at 30/31. I wont complain if he debuts on his 20th birthday, plays 12 years and retires at 32 years old.

 

[Freomaniac]

I'm happy - we've taken a solid mid, ruck & key back.

it was inevitable freo were going to get a ruckman in this draft. I expected to get a WA boy like Strnadica but we got Darcy instead

selected for experience....DB will bring knowledge and valuable experience ......sometimes is worth a lot to the team even if not playing...has to be the reason along with his tackling pressure

 

[Lach72]

To the rookie draft!!!

It's all PR. After the Whitfield saga they wanted to show they have stand up citizens at the club.

 

[Purpellian Anchor]

Logue and Cox long careers two hundred plus games each a good dividend
