Unofficial Preview Hurtin for Curtin vs Lurcher for McKercher vs Heard Ya! It’s Duursma!

[BOND 007]

BOND 007 do you see the chances of Curtin playing as a full time mid a realistic possibility or is it a bit of a pipe dream at the top level?

Sorry mate - haven't been logged on here from a few days.
In a word yes - & interestingly so does his state u18 coach.

 

[SumaGodCoach]

It's either we get Reid and 19 (my preference) or I'm around 600 up (put some on us this week too) so I guess I win either way.

I do expect us to win tonight so the sting won't be as pronounced!

Just remember that Reid is good, but he's no Petruccelle.

 

[eaglesfan84]

Looks like Harley Reids back on the table boys!

-LOTR

 

[Balls In]

Now that we are set to get pick 2 or 3 (depending on McKay compo) there are a few permutations here. Who are we hoping for our first pick?

The assumption is we would take Curtin, but that’s no guarantee and he may not be available if North take him.

Let's take Reid.

Reid, Ginbey, Kelly, Yeo, Hewett, Culley, Edwards

 

[Carbine Chaos]

Let's take Reid.

Reid, Ginbey, Kelly, Yeo, Hewett, Culley, Edwards

Reid-Hewett-Kelly-Ginbey-Petch-Culley

Fixed!

 

[Ambrose Burnside]

I want Reid but I reckon we'll trade Pick 1 if we get it, draft Curtin with one of the picks we get, talk him up as a midfielder before he plays out a respectable 200 game career in defence.

Cheers, I was thinking he looked really good there at the champs but the consensus on here seems to have been he doesn’t have the burst pace for it

 

[Bleedblueandgold]

Tbh after thinking we've lost Reid (and it may happen again), maybe McKercher and Curtin isn't the worst trade-off, but I still prefer Reid alone.

Yep, 100% what I believe if we do get pick 1; trade it for 2 first roundpicks and get Curtin as one of them and then a mid with the 2nd first round pick. And I'm not entirely opposed to it either.

So long as whoever we overlook spuds it up, I'm happy!

 

[Dark Sharks]

I'd 100% be fine with Mckercher AND Curtin. Would be huge for the rebuild. But one of them on their own, absolutely not.

I dont think North are dumb enough to pony up 2 and 3 for Harley though, struth.

Which means Reid it is



The real melt would be overlooking him on draft night and selecting Curtin anyway. Yikes.

I can see it happening.

I can see it happening.

Really? You can't see a situation where we trade for, at absolute worst, pick 2 and 14?

We'd be mocked for years if we ponied up pick 1 for 2 and 14.

2 top 8 picks at worst

Not the mocking!

Might be irrelevant if we keep this up!

Hold my f***** beer lads

Why the heck does this thread remain open but the thread on No 1 pick and Reid closed?
Doesn't make sense anymore.

 

[Wooshaaaa]

Keys needs to open up the pick 1 thread.

Lock it in

 

[ThePuma #9]

I’ll miss the boys greatly but the changing of the guard has come.

Pick 1 is ours and our draft future is in our hands.

Let’s see what we do with it from here.

 

[Bleedblueandgold]

Norf rly took the bullet for us.
Or more likely decided to take the moral high ground but not tanking one time.
TBH I'm a bit perplexed about why they did it...

 

[Dylan82]

Yep.

Close the thread again.

Re-open the Pick 1 - Reid one.
