[Bunk Moreland]

Loving the country kids.

Isn't Cobden where they make Western Star butter?

Butter, cheese and Merretts.

 

[Atavistic]

Some reasonable players still on the board;

Archer Day-Wicks, Floyd Burmeister, Charlie West, Waylon Davey-Motlop (that hit on Damon Hollow may be coming back to hurt him), Kade Herbert, Damon Hollow, Bailey McKenzie, Pat Retchko, Nathan Sulzberger, Sam Toner

Jayden Nguyễn slips through to (potentially) being a Category B rookie


Rookie draft from 12pm I believe on Friday

West was picked up, bruz.

 

[Yoda_]

West was picked up, bruz.

thank you my man

 

[bombreys]

Nice

Pick 70 is bloody exceptional value

 

[Yoda_]

Lore, still two open selections (Jaxon Prior heavily linked as one and often one left open for a train on option - Baldwin?)

how many rookie selections we looking at now? 2

[eDPS]

6th for agility. eDPS please tell me that's as impressive as it sounds.

Really good for a player his size but he doesn’t really show much agility on the field

 

[eth-dog]

Lore, still two open selections (Jaxon Prior heavily linked as one and often one left open for a train on option - Baldwin?)

We have three I think.

 

[Yoda_]

We have three I think.

three rookie and two senior spots left? alot more than I thought

 

[eth-dog]

three rookie and two senior spots left? alot more than I thought

Three total.

So we can stay at 36 and take one rookie pick then use two SSP spots or whatever

Three total.

So we can stay at 36 and take one rookie pick then use two SSP spots or whatever

+ the addition of Jaxon Prior who seems destined to be joining us

 

[jdstorm]

Does Nguyen count as those 3 due to CatB?

So basically Prior + 1 train on spot + 1 MSD spot.

 

[eth-dog]

+ the addition of Jaxon Prior who seems destined to be joining us

Yeah, so he seems like 40, with maybe a RD pick and another train on spot.

Does Nguyen count as those 3 due to CatB?

So basically Prior + 1 train on spot + 1 MSD spot.

Nope. If we take him (which I hope we do).

 

[Yoda_]

As I am reading it

Rookie selection 1

Jaxon Prior

Train on selection

(Jayden Nguyễn can be taken as a Cat B rookie and counted outside the list)

 

[Lore]

ễ

how did you get so many squiggles on one letter

 

[Keystone agony]

Really happy we got Angus Clarke

And Zak Johnson seems like the Bogfooty love chiod a bit, not sure if good thing or bad. But a good size, happy with him

Not really that overenthused by the others

 

[Yoda_]

how did you get so many squiggles on one letter

Jedi I am young one. You to, master the art, one day

 

[Keystone agony]

Rosa saying hes looking at 3 picks in the 30-40s range

Which i dont mind, get me

Sims
Angus Clarke

and all will be forgotten

Well here we are

And we gave it everything for Shanahan, so all i can ask

 

[eth-dog]

As I am reading it

Rookie selection 1

Jaxon Prior

Train on selection

(Jayden Nguyễn can be taken as a Cat B rookie and counted outside the list)

Apparently Rosa confirmed that we will be taking Nguyen too.

 

[TheGrizz]

Apparently Rosa confirmed that we will be taking Nguyen too.

He goes straight to Cat B doesn't he like Munkara did?

Or have the rules changed and I missed it? (Genuine possibility).

 

[King Patty]

Happy to get Nguyen as a cat B listing. Thought he might get bid on after draft camp results.

list wise
Gerryn Fwd/ruck
Unwin/Kako small fwd
Clarke/Johnson/Nguyen small/medium defenders

all fill areas of need.

Dissapointed we didnt get Shanahan.
less need for Prior given all the defenders drafted, but will take time.

I would still look at key forward that missed the draft for our first rookie spot.
Gabriel Stump would be my pick. or Floyd Burmeister


West coast dominated the draft
Allan, Shanahan, Gross, Davis and can add Champion as a Cat B
Shanahan would be a good stable buddy for Reid.

 

[King Patty]

He goes straight to Cat B doesn't he like Munkara did?

Or have the rules changed and I missed it? (Genuine possibility).

Straight to Cat B now

 

[Laverdeee]

All hail our new sweet king Rosa, he's nailed these picks + 4 picks in the first 4 rounds next year

4 picks in the first 2 rounds.

 

[Yoda_]

Id still like a marking fwd half type. Archer Day-Wicks is my number one want but doubt he gets to us. If not him then Sam Toner would be nice as that X factor forward type. I know we brought in Unwin and Kako but not sure they are small/mid sized marking types.
