Game Day The 2025 Draft Day Thread

And a song to sing as we watch,

Hey Matty Clarke by Kevin (Random260) Wilson :

Hey Matty Clarke you campaigner, where the **** is Sharp
I’ve looked at all these other spuds and there’s no one that I like
I wrote you a ****ing letter and posted about it twice
You dopey ****ing Richmond fart, you forgot my ****ing Sharp

If I wanted a stupid ruckman type, I would’ve bloody asked
And this half back flank and temu mid, you can shove right up your arse
You’ve stuffed the bloody order up, it’s enough to make you spew
But it’s not just me who’s snakey, SGIO is dirty too

Next time I come to see ya, I’m going to punch you in the guts
And I’ll sack the other recruiting knobs and kick Toddy in the nuts
You just wait 'til next year when you go back to the draft
And me and me little GIO come stomping through the door
And we'll say, yeah, you wait for it

Hey Pyke and Woosh you smell his breath
And check his bloodshot eyes
And don't listen to him eagles fans 'cause he tells ****ing lies
He's just a ****ing useless campaigner and he's not even very bright
'Cause the stupid ****in' w***er, forgot me ****in' Sharp

Hey Matty Clarke you campaigner, where the **** is Sharp
I’ve looked at all these other spuds and there’s no one that I like
I wrote you a ****ing letter and posted about it twice
You dopey ****ing Richmond fart, you forgot my ****ing Sharp

It's funny how it interrupted the lyrics XD

 

[maxrm]

Stoked with Lindsay, McCarthy to the midfield confirmed.
But goodness gracious that F2 to move up a single pick is outrageous, I'm hoping it was with Lindsay in mind as our back-up in case Addinsal was matched and knowing that Hawthorn would likely select him. Or am I overestimating us?

 

[Magnum27]

Our skills have been shit, and we pick a player who has them supposedly, and we whine about the pick.

 

[WCErevival]

Gepp doesnt care about junk second round picks. Its first round or nothing.

 

[stallon]

I had Lindsay as a top 3 talent early in the year. Gun.

Just a shame we threw a F2 in the bin to do it

Threw Liam Ryan in the bin to do it.
Sounds worse

 

[Farmer Lister]

Amazing result

[GoEaglesGoSGIO]

How is it a compliment? They ****ed it up.

I’m suggesting something that might make sense of it. You hate the club so much you’re seeing praise where there is none.

I hate Matt Clarke so much… let’s be exact here

Nothing makes sense of it

 

[jdisc]

Its first round or nothing.

the way these drafts are going that seems to be the meta

 

[WCE_18]

Wasn’t it a pick swap? Hawks F2 for one of ours or saints F2 ?

 

[Forward Press]

Ws are death riding Hawks as we swapped 2026 f2nds
Not a biggie

Is this confirmed?

If so it makes it slightly better I suppose.

 

[Mulldogg]

**** off with the “moving AAAALLLLL the way across the country” rhetoric.

Did they ask Farrow that?

 

[CursoryMercenary]

Sorry I missed the Hawks trade what was it?

 

[new breed]

What was the actual pick swap or trade?

We gave a F2 to move up one spot ahead of Hawks .....maybe we wanted Lindsay IF the bids on GC players failed , which it has .

 

[stallon]

Did we really need another hbf?

Yes we still needed one.

With McCarthy being in the midfield we still lacked a distributor in D50

 

[Eastern Rangers]

Better outcome than Addinsall. Lindsay is a tier above any other kick in this draft.

 

[Elite Pete]

Hawks might’ve only traded that pick thinking they will get Lindsay back because GC wouldn’t match both? Clarke is back

 

[Monocle]

Withereden mk2

Oh b--- S----.

If Witherden could kick like Lindsay he would have been a two time Premiership player because Brisbane would have never traded him.

 

[Wce17]

TOLD YA. GUNSTON REPLACMENT

 

[Mop]

Schubert an almighty slide. Wonder if the Dogs take him to replace JUH

 

[Elite Pete]

 

[Shueygod]

If we swapped saints and hawks f2 we’ve gotten an upgrade for free

 

[Ilkka Sinisalo]

We could have done it had we used Pick 1 to bid on both of Gold Coast's top prospects.

Just dumb.

But at least Jamie Cripps is on the senior list.

Yeah that is the big problem. If you’re intent on getting Addinsall then you maximise the amount of points they have to pay early on. Why not bid on Patterson given that, even if you don’t rate him that highly, GC were obviously going to match?

 

[Dylan82]

Hawks take C.Nairn as their J.Gunston replacement at 20.

 

[BG__]

Not going to let us going a bit rogue on the F2 ruin the night.

Durs/CDT/Lindsay is a pretty amazing haul for us.

The future looks bright

 

[Coasters7]

Probably had to be done in hindsight. If we don’t trade up we miss both Addinsall and Lindsay.

Can’t really get over not bidding on Patterson if the plan was always to test GC points.
