The pre-season and rookie drafts will then take place at 3pm (AEST) on Wednesday November 30.

 

[Judd2Sewell]

Because they can't match it at 37 and we'd have to take him. We don't rate him that high.

Edit: thinking NGA sorry.

No, they can match at 37. He was a FS.

Yeah, wrong Dons aligned prospect.

 

[Brishawk]

I don't understand why we bid on Davey there and not at 37?

Because we really miss Dan Howe?

 

[SSSSSS]

Really wish we took the punt on Lemmey.

 

[KermitJagger]

I reckon they just started googling yesterday, and then threw darts at a shortlist.

They had to bang a comically big gong to get McKenzie up and going first.

 

[Billyc]

Don’t think our scouts put many km’s on the cars

Certainly heavy on the private school Melbourne kids

 

[eldorado]

I don't understand why we bid on Davey there and not at 37?

We preferred Hustwaite at that pick.

No shenannigans, just who we rated higher.

 

[Bugs1977]

So do we reckon that's it for us with the 4 picks or do we go one more?

 

[Brishawk]

which we have

Speed listed as average…is he going to be a pressure forward at afl? Sounds like he is a small stoppage mid reading that profile.

 

[NICE1]

With years of watching this kid, I feel this is a two years and delist pick.
Sorry folks

A small forward with no wheels - head scratcher.

 

[hawkinoz]

Likely cause Dodoro begged us to do it as it was getting silly.

Feels like some big hitter put the word out to smash the heads in of any list manager who stops these guys from getting to Bombers. Nothing else explains it.

 

[Judd2Sewell]

How boring. I think Peaking Mark was on the come down from yesterday's efforts.

 

[sohsam]

Jack O'Sullivan apparently

Jack O'Sullivan apparently

wonderful

 

[Bumps"N"Grins]

Not a front of the pack player either

 

[Coach Killer]

We happy or we melting with JO’S

Surely it's a melt.

Munkara tanked his interviews.

But no idea why Davey lasted so long.

 

[phreeze77]

Can we possibly trade our remaining picks up to 50-51 that Brisbane and Gws won’t take ?

 

[Leather Poisoning]

Kinnear Beatson being an absolute pig in this interview

What happened here?

 

[killerspud]

I reckon they just started googling yesterday, and then threw darts at a shortlist.

I reckon they just looked on Big Footy to see who would cause the most melts
(look at the series of posts just before the Hustwaite pick and tell me I'm joking)

 

[number23]

So do we reckon that's it for us with the 4 picks or do we go one more?

You'd think so. Take the rest to the rookie and later drafts

 

[Judd2Sewell]

FFS questioning a decision isn't a melt.

Long angry paragraphs are melts.

 

[ShoveYourCOLA]

Cliff notes please?

Flew off the handle when asked about Sydney playing the agitator role last night then similarly spat the dummy at Cooper Vickery being described as a “bolter”

 

[TDS7]

Thoughts on O’Sullivan?

Really crafty, good burst with his jump and run, evasive guy at the fall of the ball. Injured a lot of the year, but a player worth taking if the club does their due diligence. Trsted really well at the combine, will take a speccy or two on the regular. I preferred Noah Long, but both similar players. Could have been what Konstanty was of given the chance. Let him force his way into the side through ripper VFL performances.

 

[daniel23]

All round pretty happy with our picks.

 

[KermitJagger]

I don't know much about O'Sullivan but I'd reckon we see him as a better chance of filling a role we have much less coverage in. Tbh when it gets to the late third round I don't understand getting your heart set too much on a specific player. Odds are against them in so many ways.

“He also recorded sound results for speed (3.02 seconds on the 20m sprint) and endurance (6.32 on the 2km time trial).”
