Game Day 2024 Draftmatmas live celebration and melt thread

[Sir_Loin]

just make the selection don’t need to know their genealogy

 

[docko911]

So we got someone tgat did an acl. Has there been anyone before that had an acl early and became a star?

Will Ashcroft

 

[damicky]

Selwood

Scott?

 

[Steely Brown Eye]

made three seperate phone calls to wa from a phone box yesterday and we don’t even take the bone saw

 

[Groupie_]

essendoom is hilarious

 

[_RT_]

Essendon trade out pick 9 and we bid on Kako at 13. Sucked in Bummers

Joel Selwood?

 

[Muddiemoose]

Surely Allan with 14

 

[fargothegreat]

We've got seven picks in this draft. We can afford to take a gamble on at least one of them.

Lalor, Smillie and Hotton are all high upside prospects and all very different players.

 

[Seymour Skinner]

Very happy with the Hotton pick.

Throwing out the order of the phantom drafts a nice plus, shit was too boring so far.

 

[manangatang]

Petracca

Ashcroft too (the first one).

 

[Lsta062]

Can we get Murphy Reid now please? I want us to pick another smallish but speedy player. Lost too many of those in the trade period. Our side’s too slow right now

 

[Danog]

Scott?

Joel

 

[TigerRoar2012]

Hotton is a good get and would not have lasted to our next pick. What is wrong with you guys?

 

[ForeverHardcore]

Lol
Bombers

 

[Muddiemoose]

Kako looks puffy

Been on the relton diet

 

[Drunken Wookie]

Would not have got to our pick at 18, Eagles wanted him and then GWS....

yep no chance, other teams arent dumb, his upside it huge

 

[Nostradumbass]

Kako needs to lose that horrendous hairstyle

 

[Mr Magic]

No need to get small forwards this early in a build.

great way to stuff a draft

 

[sanaya]

Surely Allan with 14

got a mid/fwd, mid/fwd, fwd/mid, need allan as the mid/def


and then somehow the twins at 18&20

 

[prodigy]

Surely Allan with 14

I assume so. We still might get Shanahan at 18.

Agree.

We need to find stars. Not just good solid players

Easy to forget we just lost our two biggest impact players in Dusty and Bolton
