my top 16 in 08

[Beats]

essendons future side:

J.Nash (kick ins/can play smalls or talls) - Hurley (shut down Pav/Browns) - T.Pears (3rd tall)

Houli (run and neat disposal off hbf) - Ryder (take agillity forwards Richo/Riewoldt) - C.Dempsey (flare and speed P.Burgoyne like)

Winderlich (speed and flare goal kicking mid) - J.Watson (clearance machine) - D.Myers (can take Richo/Goodes/C.Corne type players and push back to switch with Houli)

Lovett (push middle and deep forward/ pace and goals) - Gumbleton (dominating CHF of future) - Monfries (lead up forward to allow Gumby to play 40 m out)

A.Davey (small pressuring forward) - Neagle (talent talent talent, best kick at goal aswell Lloyd revistied early in his career) - L.Jetta (small pressuring forward who can push into middle like Davey)

Hille - Stanton (hopeful of a brownlow for him) - Prismall/A.Thomson/ or a good mid with our 2nd pick in 08 draft (Swift, Blease, Banner, Robinson, Zaharkis,deboer)

Warnock/Laycock (talented 2nd rucks can go forward aswell), Daniher (versatile player eg: like Hunter but on our bench, Lonergan, Mcphee)

What a side and they all have good careers left. possibly all these players have 8 years at least. Premiership success 2011/2012

... so Daniher will break games by moving from one side of the bench to the other?

Where do we think mitchell banner and andrew hooper will get picked up? Any one think Shane Page will get picked up this year or will he have to wait untill next year?

 

[saj_21]

no way, melb will so get naitanui. based on marketing alone.

lets be honest, melbourne are a pretty dull club. if they picked up this bloke they could bring lots of people to the game, get many more members and all that.

not to mention he's a gun.

We will finish above you, so do what you like with your number 1 pick.

wow that a well balanced, unbiased, totally subjective breakdown of the Essendon list

now try taking off your red and black goggles and have a real look.

You have Nick Suban at #5 and Nick Heyne nowhere in the first round? If Suban goes higher than Heyne in the draft I will be stunned, but if Suban goes on to be a better football player I will work every night for one year as a gay prostitute in St Kilda.

Nick Heyne has star stamped right across his chest.

I'm going to come across as a Suban knocker, but I just think he's being overrated by many on here who are calling him a Top 5 pick. For mine, I can't see any reason that clubs would pick him ahead of Rich, Hartlett, Sidebottom, Hannebery or Walters, and that's just from the smallish midfielder group.

Just came across this and thought it was worth a bump

Very good bump, there might be a new gay hooker walking around St Kilda soon.

well, you didnt.

i was wrong about melb picking nat though, i guess they arent that smart though really.

"BUT JACK WATTS IS FASTER OVER 20M's!!!!!!"

yeah yeah man i've heard it all before.

 

[Ben the Gooner]

So much fail in this thread from the YouTube recruiters.

 

[cmndstab]

oh what a shame its wrong. Cos CHILL didnt get picked up lol

If he had an awesome name like Chill he would've gone number 1!

 

[Porps_is_HOT_loz]

Port Adelaide will be happy with Hurley BUT I think they will go for Hatlett as he is an SA boy with loads of talent.
Edit - oh and no Nick Heyne??
He would have to be above De boer

Ohh yeah got the Hartlett bt right
Annndd Nick Heyne went before De boer so I was right
