Horrible to compare two drafts when one hasn't even played yet
Isn't predicting the best talent the whole art of drafting?

Horrible to compare two drafts when one hasn't even played yet
Lol, I'll give you one thing, you've got a much better chance then hawthorn to get him but I seriously doubt he would move across country to play for Carlton...It looks like Nate Fyfe will be a Blues next year so no need to do comparisons
Lol, I'll give you one thing, you've got a much better chance then hawthorn to get him but I seriously doubt he would move across country to play for Carlton...
What? You think Nat Fyfe will sign a contract for 500k? Your dreamingWell if his asking price is $1 mill a season for 5 years then he can go to another club. But if asking for half of that then would be glad to accomodate it
It would cost a lot more then that to get one of the top players in the league to play for your team, maybe triple the salary and he might think about it.... MightWell if his asking price is $1 mill a season for 5 years then he can go to another club. But if asking for half of that then would be glad to accomodate it

Fyfe would be your best player easily. You've been paying a complete underachiever in Gibbs 600k a year but you wouldn't want to give Fyfe more then that? well you can stick to your GWS rejects because with an additude like that your team won't be trading in any stars any time soon.Blues won't pay overs for a player that's best might be past him due to injuries and considering we are not pushing for a Premiership right now. We made that mistake with Daisy Thomas but won't make it twice

Have you suffered blunt force trauma? Fyfe will command closer to $1.5M pa then $500k.Well if his asking price is $1 mill a season for 5 years then he can go to another club. But if asking for half of that then would be glad to accomodate it
If his demanding that money then I can safely now speak on behalf of the Carlton football that he won't be joining our club. End of story! Let's not derail this thread pleaseHave you suffered blunt force trauma? Fyfe will command closer to $1.5M pa then $500k.
Typing that shit just wastes valuable internet space.

First Rounds for 2015 & 2016
Thoughts on who you think will be the better players? Do you agree 2015 is better than 2016?
possibly. Ben was a late bloomer and rode his brothers coattails a bit.Not sure how his brother went this year but Ben McKay's development in the VFL was ridiculously good considering he was a 18 year old 200cm key forward. Was v close to getting a game at senior level and I expect him to play a few games this year.
Pretty sure Brett Anderson said that if the Mckay brothers were in this draft then they would have both gone top 10. Could be a function of there being no standout key forwards in this years draft though.
Depends if anyone in the draft wants a KPP or not.possibly. Ben was a late bloomer and rode his brothers coattails a bit.
But i dont think either make top 10 this year ahead of McGrath, Taranto, McCluggage, Ainsworth, Setterfield, SPS, Bowes, Scrimshaw, Logue, Brodie, Simpkin & Florent.
I think it would have been a case of Marshall v H.McKay @ Port's pick.Depends if anyone in the draft wants a KPP or not.
I think it would have been a case of Marshall v H.McKay @ Port's pick.
Marshall was there for the teams with top 12 picks to take him.
Essendon wouldnt grab either at 1.
GWS dont need a tall forward
GCS are the same
Brisbane wouldnt have passed up McCluggage
Carlton are starved for quality forwards and still took a small mid
Sydney and North both could do with adding to their KP depth and didn't.
I would place Ben, in his current form, in the 2nd round of a deep draft.
Lol You can't say that's your forward line for the next 10 years , Mckay has a shitload to learn still and he's nowhere near a sure thing. Kerr almost went undrafted and Silvagni is a tweener forward . It's not a bad start to a forward line but it's not a sure thing. Matthew Wright lead your goal kicking last year .....Blues didn't need to get Marshall as a priority
Last year recruited Harry McKay Jack Silvagni & Charlie Curnow
This year with a late pick recruited Patrick Kerr
That's our forward line for next 10 years with still Ben and Tom Silvagni to be drafted
Our priority was Midfielders this draft
