Lauries so shit if you rate him your knowledge on footy is material

Just hasn’t had a good run at it with injuries early in career and then goodie prioritising blokes like Sparrow ahead of him. If he gets a solid run he will show a good point of difference in there for us.

 

[Mich0]

It's a new thing for attention. It's whatever people will react to. Like that broken dude who posts here pretending to be a fan.

lol @ coming on here more concerned about others posters than actually talking footy.

Has school holidays started early?

 

[killlerkyle]

8 players have departed the club (Gus, Smith, BBB, Hunter, Schache, ANB, Tommo, KFW)
So far we have welcomed 4 new players.
What is our plan for the remaining list spots?

Are we intending to use Pick 75 tonight?
I assume Mentha comes in as a rookie.
Another rookie? Noah Yze maybe?
Then one SSP before the deadline next year?

 

[Mich0]

Jack Henderson from Werribee. 24-year-old small forward midfielder who won the Norm Goss medal for best on ground honours in this year's VFL grand final.

Averaged around 22 disposals and kicked 15 goals for the year. Zippy little fella from the deep stick of country Victoria at Blighty (great pub!) and has done the hard yards to put himself in this position.

Perfect

He's never getting a run in that midfield now, lol

Club has done well 10 1st round picks over the last 6 years.

There was also Kentfield. Mentha will come in as a Cat-B rookie, Riak Andrew might come in, and the late pick will likely be used on a small. McVee and Melksham also upgraded to senior list.

Yze won't be drafted

I we don't start seeing Adams getting game time next season I will be very worried about our KPD stocks. We could have had Curtin last year and Tauru this year but opted for mids instead.

Just a run, doesn’t necessarily need to be in the midfield.

Adams ain’t going to make it, bloke struggles to average 6 touches and a mark in the VFL.

Petty is apparently training with the backs which will help a lot there.

 

[schmuttt]

I'll wait to see how these guys look at AFL level but in terms of player types I'm very happy with what we brought in. Looks like all that Tauru stuff was a smokescreen or the media having no idea (Pretty sure all the mock drafts outside Twomeys were way off).

Well thats not a good start. Is he at least keeping forwards quiet?

I have no faith in Goody. I'll believe it when I see it on game day

North probably were really into Tauru given their needs. but weren't able to trade down and couldn't justify reaching for him over FOS

What position do you see him playing?

KPD stocks are fine in my view.

Lever still has 4-5 good years left, Petty will go back as will Disco and all things being equal we get Kalani White next year as a F/S. He's raw, but he was the U/16 All Australian CHB last year, so whilst its a big year, he has the runway in front of him.

Key forwards we are some what exposed. We invested heavily in Jeffo. He needs to play senior footy at reasonable level this year.

Watch Geelong grab him just before us at pick 70 or something...

CHB (centre half bench).

Almost time to add "Noah Yze is NOT getting drafted" to thread title...

 

[Demon 16]

If we can find a couple more good quality young talls, a small forward and a ruck (potentially Verrall) before Tassie come in then we’ll be pretty well placed.

Absolutely need a second ruck option coming through.

Small forwards i also think are a little more of a cherry on top type. Typically they go a little later in the first round, so you can specifically target them a little easier, and typically they don't take 4 years like a KPP to work out what you've got.

Massive draft for Casey with no possibility of Langford or Lindsay getting a game until Tom Sparrow

Laurie is shit. Anyone who thinks otherwise is a lunatic.

That's ok.
For a start, one can question the sanity of anyone who posts here.
AND
How many sane Melbourne supporters do you know?

 

[TheBoss]

Key forwards we are some what exposed. We invested heavily in Jeffo. He needs to play senior footy at reasonable level this year.

Jefferson deserved a debut this year, he had a really solid patch of form where he booted 27.16 over 12 games (was goalless only twice over that stretch).

The match committee not rewarding him is baffling in hindsight given how poorly Petty and Turner were performing.
