Re: No 1 Draft Pick

From what I hear from a recruiter at one of the big 2 Melb based clubs, Wright is the clear standout.

He may be 203cm but moves like someone Roo's height. Booming kick too.

I reckon we'll trade Stanley, take Wright & then hopefully take Ryan Bolton from SA next year (195cm athletic KF).

Re: GWS 26 points up...bottom beckons..

Probably a good year to win the spoon with a certain other club copping 99% of negative attention.

Peter Wright tore up the SA team yesterday so all is not lost.

Re: emma quale on the draft

With no standout number 1 pick it also sounds to me that the number 1 pick we will end up with is just going to be an average AFL player and not 'the next 'Nick Reiwoldt' - which is one of the risks when you go down this path. We were lucky last time around that we snagged Nick & BJ with our nu...

He could have gone to Gold Coast 3 years ago on massive $$$.

Roo was loyal. Joey is loyal. Dal wanted to be loyal until it passed the point of no return. BJ wanted to be loyal on his terms- 700Kpa

Re: 2014 List Management - Draft & Trade Discussion

I don't think Lucas ticks the most important two boxes that we have; Can win his own ball & kick the ball at an elite level. Lucas needs to be given the pill then sprays it too often. Masten is a pretty important part of WC's midfield... a 3rd round pick won't get him (& I wouldn't give up a...

Re: pick 1 or 2 in draft pretty much a certaintly

Can we please wait until we have finished the rebuild & are on our way up the ladder before we start talking about draft lotteries?

Just our luck we'll finish last in 2015 & end up with pick 5 if a lottery came in.

Re: Seb Ross

I thought Seb was very good early... I'm going to disagree with the majority here & say that Seb will make it & become a very good player.

I hope he stays in the side for the rest of the year now & makes a few armchair experts eat their hats.

Cameron comes out of contract end of 2015.

At this stage we're looking very likely to finish bottom 3 again so will be in the mix re: exchanging early picks, players, PSD.

You're spot on Trav. Whether there's 10,000 knuckleheads or just 1, their carry on is ridiculous. Strap yourself in for a few hard years & enjoy the glimpses of brilliance from the kids & the occasional win against the odds. Getting stressed over footy at present is a ticket to an early grav...

Do you mean have further picks? That w...
