Oppo Camp Regular Non Eagles Discussion

[Keys]

It should never be forgotten that for all the Geelong blowhards bleating about how we overlooked Kelly in the 2017 draft, they picked this guy ahead of Kelly

 

[Monocle]

I think that's a very smart trade from the Blues.

Agree thats very good value pick up by the blues.

Geelong letting go their young players to bring in 30 year olds.

Carlton are back in Finals next year IMO really good additions in Saad , Williams and Fogarty..

Saints could look alright, too. What a strange new world.

Long overdue I reckon and even dare I say it Freo looks to be evolving under Longmuir and Bell ..

 

[FKASC]

Carlton will have a team that was like 75% drafted by other teams

 

[FKASC]

Pretty annoyed that they got Fogarty for so cheap. There were a few people wanting him with our first pick in 2017 IIRC

Not sure Aliir will help Port with their "deer in the headlight" moments in close ones.

 

[FKASC]

Wonder what that means for Clurey. Maybe they’ll keep both and hope to free up Jonas to be a spare.

The rest of their backs are pretty good users with ball in hand though

If Higgins can get near back to his best he’ll be pretty damaging. Looked off the pace this year though. Never seen a team so desperately churning through veterans as Geelong eh

 

[shooshka]

So Wells is now saying "I know we can facilitate whatever we need to to pick Jeremy in the pre-season draft but we hope it doesn’t get to that."

If we even mentioned the PSD during the Kelly negotiations (we didn't) we would have been absolutely smashed in the media... I bet we hear crickets from them now though.

Steven 31, Jenkins 32 at the start of next season too. Rohan & Duncan to pass 30 by midseason.

Surely having 13 players on your list 30+ is going too far the other way?!
But also, **** Geelong so who cares.

That cliff is going to come sooner than they think. They're going to be a rabble in a couple of years.

Bell just put the club 5 years backwards by losing a stack of quality picks and players to land hogan... I'm fairly sure he would be walking a very tight rope at freo right now.

landind Serong and Lachie Young added to Cerra and Brayshaw plus Henry and Fredericks and Sturt ..
Those are the future for Longmuir to work on ..
I don’t like Freo but as a draft watcher those kids stack up ..

Speedy recovery Doc - had a torrid time with 2 knees and now this

They did well in last years draft to get Serong. Young looks promising but Henry was overs. We lost a lot for Kelly.

Would you rather Cameron, Williams, O'neill or Sturt, Valente, schultz? That's their 2018 haul.

Would you swap OA, Brander, Liam Ryan and Petch for brayshaw and cerra?

I'm not being a dick, i'm interested in peoples views. I personally think we've done a lot better in recent drafts. We've also added Tim Kelly, hopefully Witherdone and Langdon.
