Preferences for Pick 23 - By Consensus Poll

[Schmick]

Just wanted to get an idea of exactly who you'd like to see us pickup with Pick 23. Same as the others

POLL CLOSES IN 3 DAYS - ESSENDON SUPPORTERS ONLY!!!!

 

[Duckworth]

I like McGinnity or Dangerfield. In the end I went with Dangerfield a young player and from Vic.

 

[saladin]

went with collier and his versatility. and being tasmanian is just as effective as victorian in terms of combating the go-home factor

I Agree. Dangerfield would be a great player in the red and black.

 

[Merv]

I am putting a clause on my vote.

A lot of people are saying that Rance is being talked about slipping to a pick in the 20's. I can't see it myself, but people who have seen more of him than me suggest it could happen.

IF either Rance or Pears slip then they would be my clear choices.

Hard to split McGinnity or Dangerfield like Duckworth said.

I'm on the WA boys.

 

[Burzum]

Basically my exact feelings Merv.

If Rance or Pears are there at 23, get them. But if neither are available, Dangerfield is my choice.

I was going to put the 2 in but wasn't sure if people would consider it being unrealistic like Rioli so i didn't bother.
I would also take Pears at 23 if available but didn't really think he'd last that long.

Foj, Ant555, do you guys think that those 2 are a realistic chance to slip to 23? If they say yes Merv, do you think it would be a good idea to delete this poll, and make another one with those 2 in it so we can get accurate results because Rance and Pears would probably draw alot of votes?

I think just leave it as is and tbh this is why we didn't do the draft in our consensus series as it's something that people never agree on.

I think Rance will go first round, others think he will slip.

I think Rioli will go first round ant doesn't.

It's all just opinions, no one is right or wrong until they succeed or fail.

Where will Ward go?

Some say first round guaranteed others say late second or third.

I think this is fine as is and really it's what Essendon think that matters.

Whatever they decide, we will have the next few years to analyze and hopefully its a to ALL our selections.

It's going to be a very new look Essendon and Bendigo next year and i can't wait to see what ever potential stars we pick in the Red and Black.

 

[BABYBOMBERS2007]

I think Selwood would be the best choice. All the Selwood's are really good players. Surely this one would also be really good.

 

[monty1104]

He would be the best choice, but I dont realistically think he would survive that long

 

[jetta2davey]

steve gaertner. A freakish athlete who is very similar to jared brennan, but just needs to work on his kicking. Has a lot of "X factor" about him.

 

[King Patty]

i picked scott selwood but am doubful he will be available by then. also would take jnr boy rioli if we dont take him with 6.

 

[jdwood]

steve gaertner. A freakish athlete who is very similar to jared brennan, but just needs to work on his kicking. Has a lot of "X factor" about him.

Uhoh, alarm bells...

If we don't pick up Myers with 6 and go with a mid or ruckman, I'd like to see a half-back type, so perhaps a Collier or someone of that mould.

 

[mojon95]

NO CHANCE of Vezpremi being there, but he's the best skilled of them all so he gets my vote

 

[Merv]

None Essendon votes removed from totals ( Gaertner 2, Vezpremi 1 )

 

[Tony Delaney]

Pick 6 thread maybe but pick 23 thread is ridiculous

 

[jetta2davey]

and why is that?

 

[Here_we_come]

Does anyone think Dangerfield will last to pick 23, i hope he does but is it realistic? I read an article and the writer seemed to think he was one of the best in this years draft.

 

[Tony Delaney]

and why is that?

Because our pick Pears wasn't even listed in the poll. Proven right that it was ridiculous as there are that many variables it's not funny.

 

[Burzum]

No one expected Pears to be available which is probably why he wasn't listed.

 

[Schmick]

Exactly right. Most of the guys following the draft who knew their stuff didn't think he'd last to our pick so i didn't bother putting him in.
