Do you bobmurray?

Do you know why eljay Connors isn't known?

Nobody else picked Arrowsmith either so what the hell does that tell you?

Fair Dinkum.

Lyon said that Connors had been hampered by injury, but was extremely quick and had very good skills.

he is 17 FFS, you want him to be flippin Chris Judd.

Get a grip and stop with the critisism of a player that hasn't even puled on a bloody boot.

Lance or James??

Rookie draft will be interesting, to say the least.

very surprised Smouha wasn't picked up, he'd be a good rookie list selection

Apparently we've shown interest in Smouha and Aaron Joseph. I'd be happy with either one of those in the rookie draft.

but it is OK for you to go boots into the recruiting staff because wedidn't pick up a player nobody else felt was worthy????????

You roleyes at our #70's pick.

I ask you what do you know about him to say Arrowsmith would have been better?

If you know nothing, why critisise?

Give the kid a chance for goodness sake.

That statement clearly indicates that you think Arrowsmith (whom no other AFL club thought worthy of picking) is better than Connors!! How do you know? How do you make that call?


I want to stand for something. I'm a loyal person and I think at the end of my career it will be great to look back and know that I'm a St Kilda person for life.

i did think we might have gone for one of the boys who were training with us with our final selection...or one of the casey boys even....maybe with our two rookie draft picks.....

Arrowsmith with pick 70?

Dream on :wink:

I guess he'll be Crying that he was not selected and pehaps even jaded. Apparently there was an attitude problem and he'd been livin on the edge and acting crazy. A couple of recruiters had told him to walk this way but he didn't want to miss a thing. Still it will be sweet emotion if he is rookie listed.

BTW, sorry for the above :oops:

I feel for the kid

Could have nominated last year..had a great season with the Cannons and Adelaide were interested. Chose, however, to take a chance to hold off a year to finish his VCE. Had a less impressive year although obviously a blinder in the GF, copped a few injuries and now has been overlooked

Tough business this drafting caper.
