~kewlest players round!!!

 

[JUBJUB]

We got nothing.Gotta be happy with that.

Sydney are taking a HUGE risk with Tingay.Didn't they learn the lesson from Scott Russell.

[Grendel]

I feel the same way as JubJub, the Hawks got nothing too, hes called Dent. You would think that we would have learnt as well Young/Sharkey/Ridley but they keep drafting 3rd rate over the hill hacks. Very very pissed off right now. The worst signing since....since....SINCE YOUNG!!! GGRRRR Pess can i borrow your username for a while?

 

[Sydneyfan]

Even though it's a huge risk for the Swans
to pick Stephen Tingay, I'm pleased for Stinger that he was picked. Hopefully, crossing fingers, he can get some valuable games in for us. I guess, at the very least, he'll be able to help out some of the younger kids at the club.

 

[Darky]

No pick = no O'Connor. Happy as a pig in shit.

------------------
Face me evil bastard, smell the hate of angels
Glory pride and bloodshed
Cowards and beholders, rapers of my wisdom mix of dust and bones
Go back to your abyss, Darky will not fall, but your heads will soon roll
Test the blade of heroes, fury of the thunder hit my golden shield

 

[PieGirl#41]

Oh Yeah I am very happy...lol..
Go The Mighty Pies!!!!!

~*~Go Chippa!!~*~
~*~Go Binger!!~*~

 

[Bloodstained Angel]

Reasonably happy with Stinger although I just hope that he is still fit - I doubt it though.

But, as Sydneyfan suggests, even if he never plays a single senior game for us he will still be useful as an experienced hand in the 'twos' - will help alot of the young guys to settle into their game.

cheers

 

[Carey_is_King]

No pick meant we could not make a mistake (read O'Connor).
Absolutely delighted.

[Richmondfan#1]

Congrats to the Magpies, Rintoul will make a big difference to the side...in a good way.

 

[Tiger_Of_Old]

we at tigerland are real happy drafting nopick to join his brother from last year.
watchout for the lads as buce would say they are "specialllllllll" lol
cheers!

 

[Shinboners]

Agree with the other North people here, very happy that no pick = no O'Conner

-------------------------
Trample the weak,
Hurdle the dead,
Pole vault over O'Conner

 

[daddy_4_eyes]

I'm happy with the eagles pick. Troy Wilson is build like a brick and should be a bit of a handful for defenders when he combines with Cummings, Phil Matera, Merenda and Sierakowski.

------------------
Go Eagles!!!

 

[JUBJUB]

Phil Matera's the only one who doesn't get injured all the time.

[GoEagles]

daddy_4_eyes I agree, Troy Wilson was a fantastic pickup for the club and I'm hoping for big things in 2001. He's been a great player for West and East Perth and a strong mark. Hey, he cant do any worse than White and Gherig this year

 

[Carey_is_King]

Hey, watch it Shinboners, I've got a copyright on that. Not bad though.

Troy Wilson is like Carey only without the nuts and bolts that hold him together

Go Eagles

Must be some bloody good players then that got selected in the national draft and pre-season draft with selections 1 or 2

What lesson is that? Never consume a dodgy vindaloo the night before an away game?

 

[CrowsOK]

On the topic of the thread title, I would say that I'm happy with the outcome for Crows, the only club to have picked up two players in this draft. It is a little hard to tell at this stage though.

Richardson promises to be able to add significant marking power to Crows forward line. Something they have not had in abundance for some years. I'm not sure about Ladams, but the word is he may be able to add bite to the midfield. Certainly thats what he himself hopes to be able to do, ambition is to play every game in 2001. We'll see.

 

[Aussie_Roo]

Happy with the Roos being exempt from the draft, at least now there is a carrot to dangle in front of the rookies if they are good enough...

 

[dockerbabe]

i think most freo supporters are happy with our pick as we haven't had much luck with clem and his injuries this just gives us that extra back up with longmuir

 

[servo]

Yes I am happy with the Crows picks.

Richo will make an impact and Ladhams will be a reasonable back up midfielder.

servo ladhams is a small forward at best
left footer with good skills, but lacks pace, strenth
perhaps with the opportunity he may develop but i dont see it happening
too many injuries
but good luck to him anyway

 

[dees01]

I am not that happy. We need to fix our backline, yet no changes have been made for next year. I thought we were going to get Berbakov, so I don't know what happened there. Anyway, good luck to Stephen Tingay. He was always one of my favourites and I hope it works out for him although I wouldn't hold high hopes about that.
