Who to draft in 2011 - II

[Blue and Silver]

I think Richmond might have finally conceided that Ben Griffiths is the new Scott Gumbleton - so perhaps Kersten can fill a leading forward position.

Inaccurate.

Gumbleton never had a serious injury pre-draft.

Griffiths was on his second shoulder reco I believe.

Still they are both perma-injured key forwards

Every club, every pick by Jason Phelan

22. Carlton - Clay Smith
Height: 180cm
Weight: 78kg
DOB: 11/5/93
Club: Gippsland Power
Draft range: 17-30
The Blues don't have any gaping holes in their list, so they will take one of the toughest kids in the draft here. Smith's draft stocks rose late in the season and a 15.3 beep test at the combine certainly didn't hurt his cause either. In Smith, Carlton will have secured the presence under the packs it sought when they traded for Brock McLean. Although Smith excels in congestion, he averaged more than five clearances a game for the Power, so he's certainly no battering ram. He can go forward and kick a nice goal and is also capable of taking a high mark when the opportunity presents.

44. Carlton - Fraser McInnes
Height: 196cm
Weight: 91kg
DOB: 19/7/93
Club: Perth
Draft range: 25-45
McInnes is an excellent tall prospect that many have rated higher than this, but he falls into Carlton's lap here. The West Australian left footer joins the growing batch of talls in the nursery at Visy Park, where his versatility will be a huge bonus. He couldn't showcase his talents for WA at the national championships due to an ankle injury and his absence was a key reason for the team's struggles.

It looks like Phelan has been listening to Emma.

Smith and McInnes, would be very happy with that.
Thought McInnes was a top 20 prospect?

Phelan's range has him not falling any further than one after our second so it is unlikely he ends up there (like McCarthy and Mitchell shouldn't have got to us last year)

If this took place, and we managed to land both Smith and McInnes, I will publically release a previously secret video of me and Caro.

Would be a great result. If you asked me a month ago I would've been happy with McInnes at 22 and Smith at 44!!

Naaaaaaaaaaaah. Thanks for the offer C4, but some things just aren't meant for public consumption.

 

[Silvagnis]

I would be happy with Smith and Hamling or McInnes.

Gut says that a 6'5" tall such as McInnes won't slide that far.

Is Paine that slow?

Pick 68.

Paine has fallen further than Beowulf's man Dobosz.

I've already embarrassed myself once today.
Don't want to push the quota.

Why not? it was a beautiful duet of us singing 'over the rainbow' .. we were in perfect harmony!

I always wondered where C4 gets his Richmond info

I'm crying, maybe out of laughter, more likely out of fear and disgust

I re-read Harks call and am still crying

 

[C4[2]Yo`DooR]

Emma Qauyle seems to think Carlton have a big surprise at 44, someone that not many other clubs know about....

ZOMG I have been waiting for this day forever!!!

 

[HARKER]

and the day we all knew was coming...........

 

[Blue and Silver]

You know what.

I am spamming this thread until the next page to get rid of that damn Harker comment

Players who I would like at 22:

Hayden Crozier


Name: Hayden Crozier
Club: Eastern Ranges, Victoria
Date of birth: 24/12/93
Height: 185cm
Weight: 68kg
Draft range: 10-20

NAB AFL Draft Combine: Crozier was just shaded by SA's Chad Wingard in the running vertical jump, but his leap of 91cm was still very impressive. He ran a 2.89s 20m sprint, which is elite, and complements that with good endurance as shown by his 14.7 beep test.

Jason Phelan says: Crozier shot to prominence when he took that massive screamer against WA during the national championships, but there's more to his game than aerial artistry. Predominantly a half-forward flanker, he has a good footy brain to go with the x-factor he brings to the table and can also find his own footy. He kicked bags of four and five goals in a Ranges' team that didn't have a great year and even showed some promise when thrown down back late in the season. He's still very lightly framed and will take some time to develop, but he has a mountain of upside.

Kevin Sheahan says: Crozier was an U18 Vic Metro representative, and boasts an elite vertical leap and mark, is well balanced, and has a great left-foot kick. Averaged 18.7 disposals for the Ranges in 2011 at 67 per cent efficiency. From Rowville FC.

In his own words: I'm an agile half-forward/midfielder with good foot skills on both sides, strong hands and good decision making.
