If we want to have a pre season draft pick we would have to delist someone now.

He's the guy I want. He's had a horror run with injuries over the past two years.HitTheBoundary wrote:I like Oleg Markov, mainly because of his pace. Gets the ball and takes off.
"Medium forward/midfielder with elite athletic ability. Possesses excellent vertical jump and marks strongly over opponents. Broke his collarbone twice this year. Finished equal-second in 20m sprint (2.87 sec) and equal-sixth in repeat sprint (24.14 sec) at NAB AFL Draft Combine. Son of Olympic and world champion pole-vaulter Dmitri Markov."
Yes FA, as that is how he can train with us already. If you are not on a club's list , you cannot train with them.ace wrote:Definitely came as a free agent after Sydney delisted him.Wayne42 wrote:PSDMunga wrote:Is Membrey a FA acquisition or PSD?

Not sure but I think 23 yr old can still be part of the rebuildRW&B wrote:What do the SANFL watchers think of Matthew Panos. Shifter had him in his top 20 in his draft year and featured in the top 30 of many phantom drafts but slid all the way to the rookie draft to the Dogs. Delisted after 3 years and went back to Norwood where he became a big bodied mid (previously a FF)In the best 10x from 14 games. 191cm and 90kgs. Is now 23yo so probably doesn't fit in with our list rebuild but he is a friend of a friend and I'm just curious if anyone thinks he's any chance for a second shot?
A good one yes but I think if we are going to take speculative picks it may as well be a younger player. I'm not huge on any of the delisted boys training with us.saint6709 wrote:Not sure but I think 23 yr old can still be part of the rebuildRW&B wrote:What do the SANFL watchers think of Matthew Panos.

Tom Rockliff was overlooked in the main draft and is elite.ace wrote:Hugh Goddard was never considered to be drafted at No 21.
We were supposed to take two mid sized players at 21 & 22.
Hugh was just too good a gift to be overlooked by us.
That means we got one more tall than we expected.
The problem with taking a rookie midfielder to replace pick No 21 is that rookie midfielders virtually never make it to elite level (the present Brownlow medalist is the exception).
They make it to GOP at best.
But if we want to win a premiership we need elite midfielders.
The best bets among rookies are small forwards and ruckmen.
Maybe Saad but do we need another ruck prospect.
As it stands we have all 4 type A rookie places vacant.
If we fill them all now then we only have Schneider's place vacant in 2015 (unless we promote someone).
It may be best to leave one rookie type A place vacant for a year.
I've got you covered, Ace. My meds have me way out in front. Pick me! I'm a much better bet. I can still get off the ground and might just father one more decent player!ace wrote:Pick me, Pick me, Pick me
I will soon be 63 years old.
I am not much smaller than the tiniest player in the AFL.
I am solidly built ...... OK so its all fat.
I like to run fast, haven't done so for years though, knees destroyed by arthritis but they do let me sort of ski downhill.
So I would make a great downhill player.
I can't kick a football (the knees again) but hey I can handball on one side.
I can take a chest mark but can't jump to get off the ground to take a screamer (the knees again).
I have type 2 diabetes, that has to be better than Paddy McCartin.
I only need to take metformin tablets, no insulin injections like Paddy.
My blood pressure and cholesterol are well controlled by tablets and I am having my osteoporosis attended to and taking vitamin D tablets.
I will try my hardest to abuse young women in the manner usual to an AFL footballer, but the methotrexate may mean their will be no father-son draft picks produced.
You know you want to take a risk on me.
Pick me, Pick me, Pick me
