I really want Shanahan.

I really like him I thought he’d be off the board by now, I’m very surprised.

 

[Tommy Wigs]

What the ****'s a Cody Angove????

They pick small forwards for breakfast lunch and dinner.

“Mid”, please

 

[akaifu]

Which mids are left for us to have a go at tomorrow?

Pure mids; Hugh Boxshall, Tom Gross, Luke Urquhart

Mid/other position: Moraes, Davis, Ough

 

[Sippa]

Well..did you watch the grand final?

Do you watch football ?

 

[Hayes4PM]

Which mids are left for us to have a go at tomorrow?

Moraes, Gross.

 

[goodie23]

Up to Hattie and Schoenmaker to prove themselves.
Nobody is handed anything on a platter. These new kids are behind them as it stands right now. If they overtake them, so be it. They’ll push each other. It’s called competition.

You know Battle was drafted as a forward, right where did he end up? You know Gehrig was a backman at WC? And theyre far from the only players ever to change position. I’m not pigeonholing either of them.

Why do you think the club didn’t go the next level of mids and took these two instead? What do you think their reasoning is? Pretty sure they weren’t just thinking let’s just piss off the BF board.

Watching the Saints-Doggies prelim on Foxtel before the draft; hope Arie is watching loads of BJ footage.

 

[Leap of Faith]

Yeah we

Do you watch our games, we need plenty.

Yep we need plenty more quality mids

 

[BrutThough]

Which mids are left for us to have a go at tomorrow?

We will probably take Dodson for the ruck stocks

 

[beside the seaside]

Do you watch our games, we need plenty.

Totally agree Yawkey, we need high quality players all over the ground.

Fremantle have a ridiculous midfield and didnt even make the finals this year. It's not the only area of the ground where you need quality.

 

[Yawkey way]

Yeah we

Yep we need plenty more quality mids

Indeed we do need an A grade mid, do you see any on the board ?.

Sydney gonna bid on Cole to get us back for pinching Dalrymple

 

[Tommy Wigs]

How's Dixon's form, trying to root Armstrong's mum in front of him

Dumb as a boot that bloke. Makes Mick Ablett look like a rocket surgeon

Where’s the second pick coming from?

 

[sufficientintent]

Moreas, Ough, Gross...

Jack Ough? Gross

 

[Leap of Faith]

A grade talent is needed regardless is position.

Disagree. What’s the point of A grade talent all focused in the back half? We desperately need mids.

 

[Diehard Saint]

My god how risky have Richmond gone

Feels like they’ve had every pick in the first round!

 

[DougalHoward]

Sydney gonna bid on Cole to get us back for pinching Dalrymple

We shouldn't match if that's the case

 

[sauce_head]

Really happy for the lions to get another free pick.

I was watching BJ footage.

Didn't realise the replay was on, otherwise I'd have watched that.

 

[hangdog]

We will probably take Dodson for the ruck stocks

I reckon Tigers beat us to him

 

[projectv]

Brisbane with two first rounders for a grand total of 6 picks in the 40's.

Great work AFL.

 

[StFly]

Feels like they’ve had every pick in the first round!

8/25 thus far, so, 1/3 picks have been Tigers.

 

[goodie23]

We will probably take Dodson for the ruck stocks

If Dodson's still there we have to. I know we need mids but a Whitlock will also be tempting if one's available

 

[Parkysp]

Think tigers can take risks with this draft haul. They will be ordinary again but wouldn’t be surprised if they shoot up the ladder in 4 to 5 years. They also can attract talent which we struggle with.

Attracting talent they can but I'd give a penny for the thoughts of Tim Taranto tonight. Is that really why he went to Richmond? Baby sitting kids through the next 4 years...and the resulting 20k less crowds.
