Feeling like a kid who snuck a peek of the Christmas presents before Chrissy day.
Two great players who no campaigner can spell correctly.

Welcome ToBeOrNotToBe Tranvilgina and Aelzixhandjob Taurine, two desperately needed racey blondes

I feel like I've opened the Christmas presents and Mum got me the off brand version of what I asked for and now I'm crying.

 

[Air King]

Our new crest is growing on me.

 

[Sully111]

Reckon we take Mitch Owens as a mid

 

[St Kilda Death]

So instead of Travaglia…

I’m 100% on board with that.
Allan has been my favoured pick, because I think he could add an element to our midfield that we don’t have.
But Travaglia not far behind, and if I had to put money on one making it as a full time mid, it’s Travaglia more likely.

I’ll be happy with any of these 3

 

[_Maximus_12]

Everything I’m hearing out of the media in the past 24 hours is that there’s no certainty between Carlton, Adelaide & Melbournes picks.

There is a real possibility of a mid slider.

I think we’re locked to Tobie Travaglia and if anything changes in front of us it’ll be Tauru who we pass on.

 

[St Kilda Death]

All starred as midfielders in there u18 year. Warner was hidden away in WA but still had a good year. Hopefully we can find one like that this year

Describing Allan.

Some positivity from everyone tonight pls

The only thing that’s certain is that nothing is certain.

 

[St Significant]

Ok my 2 bobs worth - I hope it's one of Tauru or Smillie (whichever slides) and Bo Allan

 

[Saint Shags]

I hope that its the other way around, personally.

Travagalia reminds me a lot of Max Hudghton in his early days

 

[Minga]

Interesting so, the double bid to buy us some time…

Ngl, would rather we take Tauru first in this scenario but it is what it is.

Hoping for Draper or Smillie still. Smillie and Tauru would be great. Smillie and a teens split would be great.

Regardless if it is TnT will be getting behind them big time, lots of positives despite the overwhelming want pure mid class, if it ain’t there it ain’t there.

Welcome to the club Alex Touru, Toby Travangelica, Lenny Hoffman, Adriatic Cowl and Elli Pickett. Jaque McRaw, Hunter Clarke and Jac Steal to present the jumpers

 

[chris_h_11]

Is it too late for the G-Train to adopt FoS and we take him as a father-son??

 

[SaintsSeptember]

Jesus , Max was a great stopper but a pretty average footballer.

Some positivity from everyone tonight pls

bookends for a decade OR may eventually become a midfielder

 

[Train12]

If no top 6 mid falls
the Viking and Allan please
Try trade a F1 for a teens pick and take another mid.

 

[sufficientintent]

Jesus , Max was a great stopper but a pretty average footballer.

Put some respek on my man Maxy H, All Australian Squad member 2008. Was an excellent shutdown defender 2006-08, punched anything that came his way

If we take Travaglia and pass on Tauru I will be furious. We need elite star level players not just midfielders. He has the highest ceiling of anyone in the draft. Given our history if we pass on him he's just about guaranteed to become a superstar. We'd absolutely deserve to be stuck in mediocrity for another decade.

inside 50 will come no clearer than Armstrong, the contested marking forward who has proven clinical inside 50 in the back end of 2024.
Armstrong’s understanding of forward craft makes his decisions effective, and he capitalises on each opportunity, with a proven track record of great set shot kicking and standing up in big moments.
Pick 9. (St Kilda) – Tobie Travaglia
Bendigo Pioneers/Vic Country – DEF, 187cm
Dash and dare, Travaglia has established himself as the best offensive connector out of the defensive 50, with his speed and competitiveness around the contest.
Travaglia’s intercepting makes him a threat both in the air and at ground level, often used well in offensive chains by hand and feet, and a productive two-way runner.
