Why is he no longer in our academy?

Apparently he thought the Academy staff were always mucking around and acting unprofessional

Absolute powerhouse club down here mate. Unbelievable win 7 in a row (would've been 9 if not for COVID). All home grown talent from a small town. Played footy against Finns Brothers who are quite good players as well.

I watched Finn last year in a game against Warrnambool as a 16 year old and dominated. The only kid I've seen dominate like that down here was Hugh McLuggage.

What a spot to be in to either get Langford who was the most consistent top end player this season. Or O'Sullivan whose been the clubhouse leader for pick 1 for the majority of the last 18 months.

He played well but not what I would call dominated. I am sure Chris McLaren would agree. All home grown talent - really ????? Small country town yes - but really just down the road from Warrnambool

Not a hope in hell FOS gets past Carlton at pick 3!

Apparently their into Draper

 

[snails13]

Yes this definitely seems a great option imo, and then maybe trade F1 for a teens pick and see who’s available

18.20 or 23 from Tigers

Sounds like it will go

Lalor
Smith
Draper
Tauru
O’Sullivan
Smilie


Langford (StK)
Allan (StK)

Which I’d be pretty happy with tbh.. + Mattaes = x >[emoji[emoji6][emoji6]][emoji[emoji6][emoji6]]cm silly tough mids with slightly different degrees of burst pace and class

Can't help but think this talk of Richmond definitely taking Smilie at 6 is because they assume FOS will already be taken by then. If we get to pick 6 with FOS and Smilie still available, in my opinion the Tiges take FOS, leaving us with Smilie.

 

[dudeintheswamp]

Given the above, as well as the Dees taking Langford at 5, looks to me the most likely to be picked up by the Saints at 7 and 8 would be Smilie and Reid.

Callahgan is very simmialr to Landgford

Callaghan is fast, Langford is not. Big difference.

 

[ScrappyDo]

agreed, tho while we can't always know who will step up under the rigors of the big league, we can still spot a GOP

Indeed
