Merged Draft Threads - Part 3

Hey Ant555 do you think our list is at the stage that we can maybe start to go for some roughies in the form of say a
Jarrod Blight or Jayden Post?
Two that could end up as nothing, but could also be the difference that a team needs

Why Sidebottom at 5 Ant, what has persuaded you to go for him, if Lisle is gone at pick 23, then who do we go for, we need a tall key position back, i hopefully didnt sway you for Levi, i was thinking the same thing, that he could be a project kp player for us, Gatner the same boat, Kitchen may be picked up in the N though, wouldnt he,

 

[DaSawx]

2 questions, what are the odds of Lisle being there at #23? I want Sidebottom also

and where do people think Suban will go?

Could go anywhere between 10-25

 

[Colin D'Cops]

what are the odds of Lisle being there at #23?

Should be at pretty good odds to slip there. But wouldn't be surprised if he went a tad earlier. Pick 15-30 should be his destination.

Could go anywhere between 10-25

My thoughts are the exact same as Windas's there.

cheers guys

Sidebottom to me looks like a less athletic version of Pendlebury. For people that have seen him live a few times is that a fair assessment?

I've only seen him on youtube footage and in that he got caught a lot with the ball. Up the pace 10 fold and he'd have to have awesome awareness and skill to be really good at AFL level.

 

[TheGreatBarryB]

myers isnt too bad but compared to the other two mentioned he is a dud...gumbleton is just an overated injury prone youngster who cant buy a game

What a load of rubbish. Did you see the Carlton game? Myers is going to be very good. Showed he can find the ball and a better kick.

As for Gumby, how can a player be overrated when he's hardly played a game?

I was thinking maybe Bartel?

The trolls are usually obvious to spot

 

[yaco55]

My question is that if we go for a midfielder with our first selection and Rich and Hartlett are unavailable who is the next best ' Pure Midfielder ' ?

 

[Burzum]

Sidebottom.

Ant555s Top 30 players ranked in order

Ant555

Could you please rank your Top 30 players for the 2008 Draft.

I am asking you to rank them by talent/potential.

You only need to provide the name and Number.

No comments are required as we already have your comprehensive insights about each player.

 

[Burzum]

Re: Ant555s Top 30 players ranked in order

It would be better to private message Ant.

 

[DaSawx]

no it wouldn't

 

[Ben the Gooner]

no it wouldn't

Agreed.

Am I the only one who finds irony in the fact that you're posting more now that you've resigned the mod position?

Do not want Sidebottom. If available we MUST get Hurley with pick 5, only one I'd consider at 5 would be Swift

Do not want a player that would have been in the top 4 performed midfielders over the whole season but you would be willing to risk giving up pick 5 for Swift who you have not seen play and has played bugger all for two years now becasue of a couple of knee injuries. Sounds like a good plan......

But. But. But someone on the D&T board said Swift was good.

Joel Selwood says hi ant. I would rather take Hurley and trade Lovett for Sydney's pick 12 and get Swift there

What the?

That has nothing to do with what he said.

Yes it does, both have/had knee issues, I know Joel's were more bone related but still similar story. Both gun mids as juniors

 

[Burzum]

Doesn't mean similar outcomes and I doubt you've seen enough or anything at all to say he could turn out as good.

 

[LukeParkerno1]

But I like him..and since we can't get Daniel Rich..I want Swift dammit (plus he looks hot)
