Phantom Draft - Trial Run #1

[macca69]

i reckon we just need to confirm J26 and find three more. particularly st kilda. that guy was just picking whoever we'd all been talking about as slipping through prior to his pick

If we confirm J26 we only need 2 more. Which I suspect would be Lingsface and BoyFromTheWest and we'd have 16.

 

[sinepari]

Yep and both LF and BFTW are VERY credible posters.

After reviewing 2 West Australian games from the champs, i now have doubts on Gumbleton. I was his biggest fan.

-Speed, he is a plodder
-His contested marking is overrated
-Kicking style is a shocker and average at best.

Just thought i would share that.

Nah actually Metro and Country were the games not the swimming pool Sunday.

i thought he played well against country. i must admit tho, i did think he looked better on the hard grounds of WA than he did on the softer tracks over here.

Just think there is bigger ??? on him than what people are saying.

The more i watch him the more ??? i see, maybe im being harsh but have slide him down my ranking accordingly.

have you had a look at any of his WAFL games to compare? just interested to know if you noticed any differences as i did.

2 games i have seen at WAFL level, looked so comfortable playing against men already.

Not saying im not sold on him, just have more question marks on him than i previously had. Keeping a close eye on one player while watching a DVD will do that though.

 

[sinepari]

LH are you taking the piss?

 

[LukeHodge15]

LOL......nah, i had Gumbleton at 1 on my rankings. He aint there anymore, FWIW.

My sample size im drawing from is probably a lot smaller than urs though.

Where do u have Gumby ranked ????

 

[sinepari]

at 3 mate

 

[LukeHodge15]

at 3 mate

Do u have his 20m sprint time ?

And of course if he falls to you in the Phantom Draft you would bypass him - you're as good as Clarko!

 

[jules101]

I think Gumby will go at 2 to essendon in the real draft. Sheeds does like his WA boys.

LMAO of Snoop, I probably wouldnt pass him up but im just saying Gumby has flaws. He isn't the Guarentee Superstar everyone is making him out to be.
