what has cost us over the yrs I believe is complacency and trust in cloke.. no big moves on any kpf for 5 yrs.
What cost was not supporting Cloke properly. Not getting good rebounding defenders that can move the ball quickly, highly skilled midfielders that can hit targets and a good 2nd string key forward to support him.
 
I know the names mean a lot . But are they any good ?
Brown made the TAC All-Australian team and Daicos has only just begun to take footy seriously. And he made the Vic Metro team.

They may be a bit small at present but they've still got growing time.

The last time I can remember 2 father sons being recruited were Wallis and Liberatore who weren't the biggest when they started.

I think you'll agree they've turned out all right.

The club has banked enough points to cover bids in the early 30's for both boys. I think the club might rate them a bit higher than you suspect. The strike rate around that mark in the draft isn't too bad.
I have not followed the points system.
What happens if another team nominates one of them late teens or early 20's?
 
FFS give him a chance
Any chance you could piss right off?
Actually out of the picks (excluding Wells), he is one that I think will be a handy player and cost little in intems of salary and trade.

As people or footballers?

I did watch Daics in the all star game.. he has a long way to go.. unless he has a real football spurt.. hes gonna be a work in progress.

I know this is about the giants. But can someone tell me why the giants have 11 picks in the draft? I doubt they will be using them all. And pisses me off we didnt get better picks coming back the other way.... of they indeed will not use some of those picks
 
Just have to wait and see I guess. They probably didn't think swanny would be a star at pick 58 either. We can only hope
If we got Swan today the FD would be ripped apart growling how come we took a waddler a bit slow etc with our pick. What are they thinking?
 
Getting rid of Marley for nothing shows that there must of been some huge underlying off-field issues with him, because the kid can play. Pies obviously know something that others don't

and Hine was very Savage by Saying he was going to get De-Listed at years end

Saintly I think that it is more than who the players are, I see it also about contract length and possible cost in $$ terms.

What do you do with say a player like Mayne if it doesn't work out?
He has a four year contract.
Pay him out?
 
4 years $2m for Mayne....overpaid...3 years for Wells...risky. WHE I actually hope he works out, lots of potential. Lynden Du...sorry I can't even finish typing his name through the tears of laughter.
Nafan has given us all a good chuckle this trade period. Its Vossy all over again!

By the way, congrats on getting rid of Cloke. Shouldn't geta game at the Dogs, so I don't think we will be seeing much of him again. Thank you.
Seeing Boomer get delisted was hilarious so we gotta thank you guys for some comedy!

I think the others know, pick 105.
