Don't understand what would be the thinking of not picking up Kerr, Jonty & McCarthy. And have less Rookie picks? Uninspiring draft tonight

Rofl, Mitchell Lewis to Hawthorn.... what are the odds...

 

[MagpieJoel]

Scharenberg might get rookie listed.

Cant believe scharenberg hasnt been picked. Was considered top 10 at one stage!

Rookie to Collingwood!

 

[Axl the great]

Hawthorn draft Mitchell Lewis with their second pick, trolling their own fans?

Beat me to it!!!!!
they shafted Mitchell and Lewis only to draft Mitchell Lewis! that is gold!

Mason Cox and the salary cap, will be a promoted rookie with only half his wage counting against the cap

 

[didaksrightfoot]

Jonty as a rookie?

Uninspiring draft? We just drafted a Brown and a Daicos! If that doesn't inspire you...

Anyway, SEN were reporting that the reason we didn't use our last pick was for TPP reasons

 

[Maggie5]

If this was a deep draft, why didn't we use our last pick?

SEN said something to do with our total player payments.
This surprised me as I would have thought we had space under our salary cap.

 

[Stoods]

Will we use a rookie pick? Or likely to just upgrade Smith/Cox?

 

[Obese Arachnid]

And we are done.

If you could please fold your chairs & stack them at the front entrance as you leave, that would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you & drive safely.

Uninspiring? We just drafted the sons of two club legends. If that doesn't excite you give the game away.

One of the funniest picks of the night, hope they give him number 53 or 35!

 

[Apex36]

Shocked that Jonty was overlooked completely. Wasn't he AA this year? His disposal must be god awful if he can't get drafted off the back of that.

Perhaps we are overpaying? I thought that financially we could fit another in.

 

[spartan-magpie]

Conclusion? We kicked its ass.


Mclarty, Randell big man special. Check.

Rowdy jnr. Enough said. check.

Kayle Kirby. Byron Pickett and cyril traits? Check.

Daicos. Daicos, wizard, magician, marvel, freak, Sherrin puppeteer....... massive check. Will be a superstar. Lucky we told him to hold about 90% back so we could get him for nicks.

Club wants to stay at 95% of the cap this year apparently.

 

[Hagla]

Why were the hawks allowed to pass before making 3 selections?

Rookie draft?

 

[Soups]

Well I am happy. And drunk. Alcoholic ginger beers have got the better of me. Peace out y'all.

 

[Matt_352]

Sigh can we get Mitch in the rookie draft?

 

[Hagla]

Rookie draft?

http://www.afl.com.au/draft/draft-history
"Each club must have at least three selections in the NAB AFL Draft."

Do they just mean you must take 3 selections with you to the draft then? because if that's the case it's almost impossible not to take 3 selections with you...

 

[Brent24]

Why?

So we can use 105% next year I think?
