It's been a while lol

Reminds me of when I had a go at schmuttt for spelling Mitch Brown's surname with an e on the end constantly then Headless corrected my spelling on Tomlinson a day or so later, I was spelling it Thomlinson (bloke I used to play footy with was spelt like that).

 

[Daemon]

There’s prestige in having the #1 pick at your club. Plus the player that goes #1 gets a prize, $20k or one thing like that. Also the player Richmond would get would know they weren’t Richmond’s first choice.

Adelaide pulled the trigger on Ugle-Hagan with a pick #1 bid.

Thank you for that.

Now I get that you don't want to piss off the guy you select after Ashcroft gets a bid on, but surely all these guys know he is the best player and can be big boys about it.

Who was the guy that kept calling him Thommo?

 

[Scythe94]

Laurie?

Wasn't really drafted as a mid, was more of a forward flanker

Thanks to our depth he is an inside mid now

 

[Scythe94]

Well then we better draft some more mids

Lindsay leak is probably to stop the Allan double spook.

You can’t double spook a triple spookies.

This board needs more dumb and dumber references.

I couldn't think of one. OK standard trope. Adelaide select Draper leaving Langford available.

 

[matsta1975]

If we take Langford at 6, I imagine if Allen's off the board we'll take Lindsay at 9 (unless Tauru slips through)

I don't want Lindsay for some reason so I'm looking forward to melting on here tomorrow

Gets his body right will be a legitimate game changer

 

[Scythe94]

Xavier Lindsay on Gettable atm: https://www.afl.com.au/news/1256970...-no1-contenders-crows-recruiter-join-the-show

(Langford on at 10:30)

 

[Scythe94]

His manager expects that he'll go to us, Richmond or St Kilda

 

[Scythe94]

Interesting that he looks up to Zac Merrett – can definitely see some similarities:



Think I've firmed on him as my preference for #9, since it looks like Reid is probably going to go in the teens. Langford and Lindsay would be a good result

 

[booshboy]

Hypothetically Tauru, Allan, Lindsey all still on the board at out 2nd pick. Who would you want? Sounds like the club loves Tauru but i think Lindsey is more what we need.

I haven't watched Tauru so this is based off that but unless you see a Luke Jackson type of shit a guy his size shouldn't be able to do stuff like that I think paying 9 for an a medium sized defender would be one of the worst decisions Taylor's ever made.

 

[Duke of Windso]

Adelaide's recruiting manager on Gettable at the moment. I can't go backwards on the stream but from what I caught he was suggesting that Smith and Langford had a bit of an advantage due to having a better lead-up to the champs. He also said it was a myth that Adelaide need a big midfielder. Definitely didn't get the vibe that they're picking Langford.

Yeah, was mainly making the point that FOS and Draper were off the pace due to limited preparation (injury etc), whereas Jagga was basically living a professional footballer's life as he finished Year 12 last year.

Yeah Cal doubled down yesterday by leaving Draper at 4 yesterday on the late mail. If he had any reservations you'd think he'd spent time talking about it being on a knife's edge
