List Mgmt. 2017 Draft Discussion II - Draft Day

[Diehard Saint]

How though?

Odds are neither will make it but Tom Lamb at least has some elite qualities rather than just being tall.

I get Lewie is one of us etc.. but he's not very good at all. I wish him the best obviously but I'd 100% rather take Tom Lamb, attitude problems and all.

He's shown nothing for a couple of years. Why wouldn't we take a punt on someone else who doesn't appear to have attitude problems and is probably so grateful to get picked up that he will work his behind off?
Elite qualities are worthless without the work ethic.

One potentially destabilises the club for little likely return. One doesn’t.

 

[Barrels]

On a scale of bromance to wristy in the gabba pool how does it make you feel?

Eddie McGuire getting a wristy from Damien Barrett in the Gabba pool.

Must be the alphest of alpha males, on par with Riewoldt if he is to have that sort of influence.

Heard he was Negans muse

Searching for some info on Langlands,and an article from Border Mail come up for him,and the article underneath,was on Justin Koschitzke's first cousin Jacob,playing senior football with Albury Tigers at age 16.
He was their KPF in second half of season and done well.
He is 198 cm tall.

 

[Snailspace13]

Still reading up on our recruits,and have just read the TAC Cup Team of the Year for 2017.
Probably has been mentioned on here in recent times but,
Half BackLine -H.Clark,O.Clavarino,N.Coffield.
And B.Paton named in Back Pocket

 

[Joffaboy]

Right on Sab. I feel this forum is really starting to come together and getting a good community vibe to it

Mods have done/do a great job. George has done a tonne of good work in that regard too.

Slowly we are seeing less of the flame and shame posts and becoming more accepting of the different personalities on here

It's moving along nicely

Ripping post

 

[Grav]

Am looking forward to seeing these three come out the other side of pre season training.
Doulton doesn’t look a bad build already, only a rookie, but could turn into one of our most important players.

Doulton Langlands

Oscar Clavarino
and Hunter Clark

Ben Paton disapproves of this message...

 

[PrinceofSeaford]

Really like the way clavarino moves for a big man. Looks very much a modern day athletic key defender. Think he could be a gun

Doulton Langlands.

WHAT A NAME.

Prince Doulton Langlands

Nickname = ROYAL

 

[bennymc7]

Hope Hunter keeps the long hair headband look...

Will be a fan favourite no worries, hope he plays rnd 1

Be shocked if by the end of the year he doesn't pick himself

I'd suggest prepare to be shocked. When was the last time this happened at St. Kilda?

I wonder if he is related to Graeme Langlands,one of Australias best ever Rugby League players.

Isn't that bloke on pedo charges?

Young player establishing himself in the team by the end of his first year?

JB, Dunstan, Gresh?

Edit- granted the team is in a different place now but still hopeful

Good to be hopeful! Though I don't recall any of those boys picking themselves by the end of their first year. I know Dunstan had some big games, but he's still not picking himself!

Anyways who knows what happens.

Link doesn't work. Went to aussiefootyforums.net, is it the same? They've got like 9 members and all their threads are empty. Like some weird sovereign state on a ranch in the middle of WA.

Ganglands sounds tougher. Royal sounds like some ponce throwing flowers to the crowd at half time breaks.


I remember when we moved into our house the only toilet had Armitage Shanks as the brand on the bowl, perhaps with Dolton we could stop recruiting Jacks and look for names to toilet bowl manufacturers or other assorted ceramic ephemera. It might limit our recruiting somewhat though.

Most of our high draft picks with a bit of talent seem to play some footy in their first season. HC should have the rising star wrapped up by the end of march they won't drop him after that.
