Pick #13 used on Jesse Lonergan!

 

[Cochblocked]

welcome Jesse Lonergan

 

[Sunny_]

He's exactly what we need. Tough inside mid. Well done Clayton. Best possible get for us at #13.

 

[supernova_]

glad it wasnt Simpson, no offence to the young fella. But that kind of baggage is a gamble we dont need.

 

[Scotty_222]

Good work to Clayton, I thought he might be in the mix

 

[Sunny_]

Not looking too bad.

 

[Sunny_]

Tim Sumner taken by us at pick #55. 187cm tall at 83kg. Born in 94, so not a mature ager.

 

[supernova_]

Thats fine with me considering we've upgraded Horsely, and traded in Broughton and Murphy as mature agers.

Good work team

Hine went to north melbourne

 

[Big Red Machine]

Tim Sumner taken by us at pick #55. 187cm tall at 83kg. Born in 94, so not a mature ager.

Bit out of left field, Any info?

 

[Sunny_]

Stoked to be a Sun!

Sumner looks to have some real xfactor from looking at his highlight package. Good size, good hands and has some real pace. Doesnt mind slotting goals from tight pockets either.

 

[vide0n]

Can't believe Brodie Grundy slipped to Collingwood.

Interested in hearing more about Sumner...

 

[Sunny_]

Sumner will need a couple of years of development, but he's a very good prospect. Very fast across the deck, and can kick impossible goals. Needs to work on consistency, but not a bad pick at all for #55.

I wonder if Taswegian has now forgiven us for de-listing Iles?

 

[Cochblocked]

fox footy just had a interview with Jesse Lonergan he say's he doesn't surf that might be a worry

 

[Cochblocked]

so Boston didn't get selected are you guys surprised? and can we still get him as a rookie?

 

[Sunny_]

Can pick him up in the RD, yeah.

Garlett also not drafted at all. Off field stuff must have been mega.

Sumner has his own thread for those keen to read about him.

Recent article on Tim Sumner.

Still a little bewildered we picked up a medium size forward, something we have a plethora of, but that's why Clayton gets paid the big dollars I guess.

This, you lucky buggers.

Unless someone picks him in the PSD before our rookie draft selections.

 

[WrongUn]

For me Dean Towers at the Swans #22 was a big suprise. Thelad looks great but a 1st Rd selection was interesting. Really look forward to watching him next season. Future first-year premiership player?

Ever try to surf in Tassie? It can definitely be done, but you have to be crazy. It'd be more of a worry if he did surf.

Hopefully he fulfills his potential with you guys. It's almost like we do have a Tasmanian team now, they are just called the 'Gold Coast Suns'.

No, dammit!!

 

[gotassieboys]

It was very interesting that GCS passed on a tall defender in Corr, in preference for a big bodied inside on baller.

Also Clayton just loves those Tassie boys!!!!!!!!!
