F. Deluca is overrated, he will not be taken by Carlton if Meesen is available. Most of the drafts have him being taken by Carlton simply because his brother Adrian is on our list.

I have it from a good source that we will not draft a ruckman this year unless he's available at 25. KPP is what Denis is after. Whitnall won't be here 2006 (we can only hope)

roughead will not go before tambling and griffen. and if franklin wasnt from WA then then roughead would probly fall behind him aswell. the tigers would be aiming for him at 5 not 2.

ive been hearing talk that bennet copping will be a surprise pick at maybe 10 or 11, hes been compared to rivers from melb. he will be needed at collingwood, as cloke is a bit too slow

no way
you obviously go to sacred heart. copping has a great understanding of footy and all he needs to do is bulk up. he's got the ability to run as well, could be used as a wingman if need be. he played with injuries all year as well. redden is ok, but will be tested at the top level. its pretty easy to dominate when you're in a side like that. juniper isn't worth the thought. the guy couldn't give a stuff and is overrated anyway. apparently he got benched playing against st. peter's (copping's school) in their second game. danny meyer played pretty well though

haha dude take it from me copping is an overrated Hack! he is alxy and plays selfish football! Juniper was killing him in the 2nd game this year, i know i was there and the reason he got benched was because the coach gave him a rest to give there 2nd ruckman some decent game time! Benet also got killed by Henry Mason of pembroke and the bloke from PAC in the intercol! i know i was there for all of them! Juniper is a wicked talent! he jsut needs to use it and i was talking to his brother the other day and he is on the right track and wants to play top level football now!

Dont start on Redden the kid is better than Mackie and Mackie was a star mate! Redden will go in the top 15 picks! 190cm are las rare as rocking horse sh|t, especially ones with the skills and courage he has! your point is stupid, it is harder to stand out in a side like that, they were probably one of the best ever SHC teams only behind the 2002 and the year they had Pavlich in the side!

if you are going to make claims back em up mate! did you play 1sts and if so who for?

no way! read my above post! and there is no way he is similair to Jared, Rivers played SANFL footy in yr11, Benet plays like 17s for Sturt and 1sts for St Peters, Rivers had experience playing against grown men with solid bodies, Ben doesnt. Jared played 2 whole seasons of SANFL before being drafted as well, Jared although he doesnt look like it is really strong, Ben isnt, he is easilypushed of the ball and tends to be a tad soft, plus Bens a big whinger anyways :p

For thos ein the know, they say that Redden does not have much penetration in his kicking is this true?

Used to be in the same basketball team as Danyl Pearce at South Adelaide, he's a bloody good bloke, always nailed three pointers.

in 3yrs. and he needs to grow at least 11cm to play KPP. part of the reason he is rated so highly is because of his daddy. once he's out of the picture and little bryce doesnt get his own way all the time, then we will see how good a player he is.

Gibbs is 15 and playing reserves...his dad doesn't coach reserves.

He is still eligible for U15, U17 and U19.

Mark Williams said he is the best player he has ever seen at his age.

Hes already like 180cm and is only 15, he will dominate the AFL.

Why would you want eckerman. Richmond need a ruck!
Simply we have Simmonds and Stafford with Hall as a backup.pick 12 wont be used on a Ruckman.
In fact i would say that our 1st 3 picks will be used on midfeilder types while our 4th pick maybe used on a kpp[pending on who,s available while pick 20 will be used on a ruckman.

cheers!
