[Bacchus]

WC has pick 46, not St Kilda. We don't have many picks, please don't take one of the few we have.

Sorry Mate will edit the order

I don't hate St Kilda's selections there. I'd like to see Tanner Smith slide to pick 25 or 26 and if he doesn't then I'd say St Kilda take Rodder or Walshe with a pick in the 40's. I think Nick Graham goes a bit earlier and he's one I would like to see St Kilda target if he's available at pick 25 or 26. Also a bit optimistic Menzel lasting to pick 16....Same with Kennedy, Garlett and Membrey. And few going a bit early; Simpson, Lonergon and Boston IMO.

From a St Kilda perspective it would be nice to see Tippett and Ben Jacobs go inside the top 25 and the Crows and Demons penalised. It could potentially see picks 25 and 26 turn into 22 and 23. But that's just being mean

GJ mate.

 

[tigs2010]

Richmond rate Vlastuin/Garner over Stringer FWIW if you're having a guess at the real order. Would hope we'd take Macrae though if it goes the way you have it, which is entirely possible.

Like Atkins and I think you are spot on that Port will snatch Broomhead just before us. IMO we would go Pongracic over Haynes though as we need a Tuck replacement soon. And Irra fills the huge void in pace we are starting to get in our outside run outside of Deledio so he seems a good fit.

 

[TJ1996]

I don't hate Nick Graham, I just don't see him going that high. Haynes or Pongracic would suit the Hawks more at Pick 29

 

[Super Hans]

No Hrovat is interesting. Unless I've missed him? Couldn't pick a better draft for the dogs. Probably swap Stringer for Plowman but still a great draft. If Melbourne pass on Toumpas they deserve to be where they are.

Edit: Just saw Hrovat at 26.

 

[Bacchus]

Hard to see us (WC) taking a small/medium forward from SA in front of two KPDs (Rodda and McIntosh) from WA. We have a fairly urgent need of a developing KPD if you recall the Mitch Brown saga.

Fair point - Whats the latest situation with Brown Bacchus will he sign with West Coast or Walk out the door ?

Went with Kennedy for the doggies over Hrovat..I guess the dogs will make the decision on the day either way I dont think they can lose out picking Kennedy or Hrovat, as for Melbourne I think they will play it safe and take Wines over the Toumpas given Wines is mates with Viney

As far as I know it's uncertain, possibly depends on what happens this year, when Glass retires, those sort of things. I think he was head hunted by St Kilda although it would be frustrating mainly playing in the seconds when you're good enough to play at the highest level.

 

[Masto]

Steven Baldasso is a player not mentioned on here much, what can you tell us about him?

Midfielder/Forward

18 Year old from Norwood displays great awareness and agility in traffic as well as making excellent decisions with his disposal he is around 175cm mark, has very clean hands both in the air and at ground level and possesses excellent leg speed. Averages 22 disposals for Norwood at Colts level and has also played in the SANFL Reserves during 2012 not sure if he made a Senior debut.

[Sin City]

Macrae with our first pick

 

[winalotroos]

Would be happy to get Josh Simpson with our first pick, and Towers with number two.

I can only hope this pans out.

And north have pick 48 not Collingwood.

Imagine those 2 linking up with Harper and Atley in a passage of play. No one would get a finger on them.

Would be lovely.

 

[maddog37]

Get a room.

 

[Scodog10]

Can't say I'm a big fan of Membrey and Smith. Not that they aren't good prospects or anything it just doesn't fit with us. I'd say we'll go two smalls and a tall with those three especially with Garlett, Kennedy and Hrovat still there.

 

[stefoid]

Toumpas, Ploughman and Kennedy? where do I sign?

 

[Lazar Goz]

McBean? at pick 23?

 

[Tazwegian]

16. Geelong Troy Menzel

Think you may be dreaming there, SOG
