Jackson Trengove - Should we take the risk?

[Philhawk]

Supposedly he's a very talented young defender who ruptured his ACL earlier this year.

But the good news is, he's set to make a full recovery (supposedly).

With our first pick set to be in the 12-16 vicinity, should we forget the risk and draft him, considering the fact that he'd be one of, if not the only, quality defenders still available at our pick?

 

[Gary7Ayres]

No more injured picks please!

 

[Collins-Langford-Ayres]

Yeah, not on a first pick thanks.

 

[Metin_91]

i would take the risks but i would rather trade out 1st rounder to a team for a key defender.
1st round picks are like gold in this draft so lets try and get a gem of a KEY defender not a mundy type defender but someone like chaplin

 

[hawkstars]

Need to get a ready made player.

 

[Metin91]

Need to get a ready made player.

exactly
we are now in a position where we have enough youth and need a experienced key tall in the backline

Got a chance to watch this kid..............not supposedly......IS.... a talent
BUT THE RISK.....not sure

 

[Pharaoh]

Yes, he will be worth it.

 

[Stewie Griffin]

Not after the dowler, muston debacle.

 

[Philhawk]

Not after the dowler, muston debacle.

Could end up a Selwood, though? ...

 

[Metin91]

Not after the dowler, muston debacle.

i wouldnt call it a debacle as dowler is now hittin his strides
and also chriss judd was a risky pick for the eagles and look at him now

 

[Big Ronnie]

Yeah, and we passed on a guy called Judd due to a shoulder reco before he was 18?

 

[Mervyn Beasley]

Not after the dowler, muston debacle.

Judd and Hodge were injury risks remember!

 

[flyby hawk]

Yeah, and we passed on a guy called Judd due to a shoulder reco before he was 18?

and we picked up a guy called HODGE - no regrets from me!!!

 

[MadDawg]

With Muston and Bailey coming off their 2nd reconstructions I think we should stay away from him.

I would like to draft Roughead's cousin, he would be right for around our pick, we could do with another ruckman and it would be great just to have not 1 but 2 players with that beautiful surname.

 

[TwoBeaus]

everyone says trade for a key position backman

but who is available / out of contract / and wants to be traded??

any club that has one is hardly likely to give them up

can somebody come up with some names???

 

[Big Ronnie]

and we picked up a guy called HODGE - no regrets from me!!!

Oh jesus Flyby dont open that old chestnut again.

Did you see there is a clown on Bay 13 who has made his name Hodge2Gamble in referance to our great man H2F and of course Friday week ago. Must admit it did make me laugh

 

[JezzHawk]

Prefer Jordan Lisle to be taken by our 1st pick.

 

[Mervyn Beasley]

That is quite funny

 

[Main Man]

Should Just draft Markovic, another strong performance by him at Box Hill yesterday..
