I'm on the train! Early days but is already a class above VFL level as a young KPF. I've also heard he is immensely strong already. Going to be a beast in 1-2 years but capable of playing a role earlier. Done everything you could ask for so far.

Salary cap not an issue because he is an unrestricted free agent. There is no way we can pay him market value so if he comes it will be on small money to try and win a flag. The benefits of being a pies premiership player will make up for it. So what I'm saying is IF he comes it will be for...

I'm with Marty here. Of the young small forwards Elliot has a huge edge in class, clearly AFL talent its just a matter of time. Big chance to debut this year (he is a 19yo so body more mature than a 1st year draftee). I think its a trap to assume these guys all end up in midfield. Elliot hardly...

Trying to speculate what we will or won't need in the future will drive you crazy. Although it is fun lol. This year will be hard to judge Edwards as it looks like he will only be playing school football. As far as where he sits on our list I'm not concerned by that as he won't actually take up...

Don't know either but he is u/17 and small so may just be leaving him until next year.

Re: Salary cap and list mgmt problems - Good luck Walshy! Don't know how it is this year but pies have been pretty strict over last few years about not backending contracts. Causes big headaches down the track. They have frontended a lot though which is a good thing, if you have the cash pay...

Draft 2014 play 2015. He is u/16 they rarely play tac cup, next year. Would be worth turning up early to a chargers game this year, word is he dominates his age group. Will be more exciting next year when he plays tac cup & possibly Nat champs as an underager, for now he is just a warm gooey...

To be fair that was all accurate although how he knew I have no idea. For the record it was just a phase though! (not that there is anything wrong with that). No red card, let the kid go I want to see where this ends up. Also I didn't realise I had 100 posts! Do I get a prize for cracking the ton?

Having an opinion does not automatically make it valid. Imo you have no idea how the recruiting process works. You have a point about the importance of development programs after players are drafted and if that was your main point I would have been agreeing with you even though your a tool.

I'll apologise on his behalf for having a life? Evrerything else you say is so staggeringly ignorant I'm lost for words. Maybe football will make more sense to you when you learn to stand up to pee.

To rookie him he first has to be delisted and go back in the draft so other clubs can take hum. You wouldn't roll the dice if you really rated him imo.

I assume you've been stalking both daics jnr boys, can we convince the afl to do a reverse mature rookie rule and let us put a couple of u/12 "immature" rookies on the list...

Sorry mate I was just being smart. I actually agree with you. All of our small forwards seem to be workers or midfielders who can't a gig up the field. A genuinely dangerous small forward who oppositions have to fear and respect is a big gap in our current best 22. Of the current available list...

So you want Daicos to make a comeback? Don't we all....

I'm in! Couple of beers and walk over to vic park, what could be better? Look forward to meeting a mad pie fans.

Re: RD 4 vs Northern Blues @ 2PM @ Preston City Oval Dids warmed up. Didn't see Witts out there (and he is hard to miss).

Re: Future Magpies Watch '11 If he played for AIS tonight would have to be rested.

Re: Saturday 17/3/12 vs Geelong @ Kardinia Park 11:15am Over 5-20 metres when it counts he is. Explosive.

Thanks Matty. When you have time can you give a bit more info on Cribbins game?

Some vague impressions so far, can't read too much into nab cup. Mooney - improved each game, forward pressure shows signs it could be a weapon, kicking surprisingly good, puts his head over the ball and looks clean. Just keep improving as is, better than me after my 3-4 hours of footy:)...

Ignoring stats and who is best. Players I would least like to be tackled by. * Cloke (puts some hurt on) * Ball * Maxwell Cloke and Maxwell just look like they want to hurt people and Ball is...well just old fashioned tough. So I guess it depends how you define "best".

Yep, its an auction. You can't bid then change your mind. Clubs only bid if they are prepared to pay that particulr pick (including the club who has f/s rights).

I'll assume that was meant to be funny? It wasn't. Otherwise what a cheap shot at a fellow pies fan. I haven't quoted the rest but that wasn't all. We rate character in our football heroes why not here? Maybe your opinion is important too, not too me though.

I'll take a seat mate. Sent you my details by pm. I know the way as well been there plenty of times!

Didn't think he was having a go at mooney? It's just a fact he needs to be playing to learn. I'm excited by him and the quicker he gets games under his belt the better. I'll probably head down and cheer the kid on. If he kicks a goal ill start an Ole Ole Ole chant!

Posting this cause its legit and aligned with afl, not an illegal stream. For stream sign up to livesport.tv they are offering nab cup for free as a lead in to try and sell you the real season.

Someone tried to shut the premiership window so he smashed it open! Go Harry!

Not sure if your serious or just a bad troll attempt? I'll guess poor troll or don't watch much footy.

Thanks for the responses guys, some interesting points discussed. FWIW ill make some comments in no particular order and with little degree of confidence:) * Good pick up that Ireland is long past being an experiment. I was talking more from a Pies perspective as I think this will year 5-6...

I think at end of this season we can start to judge how successful this has been. Marty will have played 4 seasons, Cribbin 2 and Mooney 1. So far I think benefit has outweighed cost but if Marty plays 100+ games and one of the other boys ends up with 50 then I'd call it a big success. Beyond...
