Do tell? A Couple of cringe worthy quotes may be enough ...Read at the peril of your mental and physical health. You are gonna need a large bucket.
You have been warned.
They’ll have done well over the last couple of drafts if they’re lining up with Fogarty, Luko & Rankine up forward. Homegrown boys would put them at ease..
But did he ever get to grade 4 ?ferrisb's best 4 years of his life were Grade 3.

Feeling very comfortable with state of the rebuild right now - 80% done and from there natural draft and development can become the focus. Need to find 2 midfielders, one goalsneak and a very smart gorilla defender.

I think SOS will do something.
If we are about improving the list, then 3 picks in the top 20 to replace Graham, Kerridge and Lamb is the way to go IMO (get Smith, Rozee and Caldwell if we can). All for a Finlayson or a Sam Collins to take Rowe’s spot. Hope there is a small defender somewhere in the mix (and Lamb to the Rookie List).
What a load of Dribble,,,
I can only hope that one day the "Real story comes out about the * drugs saga.

PS thanks for the Link "Dravid's in,

Robbo huh? In that case - spare me the details...
Viv, Warney, DK and Wasim Akram. Sometimes there is more than once in a generation type. Although I guess some that saw Warney never saw Viv or DK and some seeing Kohli now never saw any of those four.
Whatever the buzz words like once in a generation, there is a bunch of guns at top end of this draft pool like not seen for sometime. Good judges that watch each years kids say so. Give me another pick in top 4 if at all possible. Greed is good....

Shiel, Lobb, Hogan and Neale not done, most of the rest are small fry.
I think SOS is not finished yet and is up to someting from left field. I would not be at all surprised if he trades P #1 and tries to take Smith and one of the King boys. ( I believe Smith trained with us during the year, and he has a liking for one of the kings, Ben I think, able to play back or forward.) Just a hunch.

I haven't seen anything about Walsh being a generational player except in this thread. I have about Lukosius and Rankine.
I think we are playing Chinese Whispers on this board re Walsh. He'll never be able to live up to this aura we are creating.
Just a well balanced mid with an appetite for the contest.
Yes, God makes a cameo appearance.
I’d imagine their facilities (bar location for some) would be tempting to an prospective trade and HTF they’ve “re-grouped” financially after the drugging scandal is phenomenal considering we’re still mired in debt from the start of 00’s.

Unpopular opinion but I am relieved we didn't get him. Here's why
1. I think he is mostly overrated. Good player and would help but not a game changer
2. The Future First Pick can now very possibly be used for player(s) that will help us a lot more
3. We got Setterfield who IMO will be a much better player and is only 20
4. Allows others to play midfield and take responsibility. Dow SPS Setterfield O'Brien Fisher all get more time and can easily be as good if not better
5. True improvement will come from the young group and players that at the moment we aren't convinced about. i.e Cuningham Polson Garlett Pickett etc. If any or a couple of them step up we will be so much better
6. We have money for another player or players
7. Made Essendon put all there eggs in one basket. Needs to work for them or they are stuck
8. Allows us to develop depth a bit easier
Go Blues
I’m hoping in a couple of years we will be able to put him in the Rockliff, Carlisle and Trav Cloke basket of bullets dodged. So far, the target that we missed that hurts the most is probably Devon Smith. Or Tom Mitchell, depending on how hard we actually chased him.
Had to put your beer down when he started up the cross bat shots at AO, the ball fair fizzed at ya’
Speaking of, time to update the SACA Member thingy.
I do it for the lanyard and the feeling of entitlement.
SOS is just a good poker player and gives NOTHING away. Even Jo and Jack would have no clue what is in his mind with this draft game. Nobody knows what he is up to. He maybe up to nothing or has a cunning plan but I suspect nobody else knows apart from maybe Brodie. SOS would not even tell his own family. I bet even his best friends get donuts from him they stop trying. So everyone speculates away but we will never know until or unless he reveals what he has in mind. I laughed when I heard him on radio say to Damo, when you find out what I am doing, let me know...lol

I feel both Essendon & Carlton knew they wouldn't be getting both Setterfield & Shiel.
Carlton had the best chance as they were holding the pick #1, but that wasn't going anywhere for a bag of mixed lollies....albeit good lollies.
I'm not glad we missed on Shiel, because we put a lot of time into him and he certainly would have made our midfield better, in a time when midfields will be even more important with the new rule changes, but I'm not particularly disappointed either, having attracted Setterfield.

when I said "can't take your eyes off" it was because he was so uniquely blessed as a performer - not because he might dong a dorothy dixer into your beer - seriously numbers........
No.
ferrisb took 4 years to get through Grade 3.
Then his brain had a growth spurt and he went straight to University..........

You need to adjust your scale from 0 to 100 !
Lucky enough to witness the session at the WACA when he turned it on for the 100 off 50 odd balls.
Now to try and recount cricket history at Optus Stadium...
Shit. never underestimating him again. Can he tell me about Higg's Boson please and the latest M theory ?
