News of the Cameron delisting is sad. Kid looked the goods. I know he was injured a lot last year but surely that's not why we pushed him out the door. WTF happened last year for him to fall so far off the reservation?

We haven’t pushed him out the door. He’s walked away.

 

[Bender_]

Which Rohan O'Brien then used to hold his party pies?

Not to worry, ROB copied them onto his hand for draft night:



"I, er um.... WE'LL TAKE [insert KPP slider]!"

 

[UseR2006]

If pick 10 on draft night isn't a pure Midfielder fold the club.

 

[Balls In]

Long term injury, not the mental resolve to deal with it. Bit obvious isnt it?

Its just such a shame.

Who’s this year’s Nakia?

 

[Eastcoasteagle]

I’m expecting GWS to trade back in the draft from 2 to 7. The quality in that range are mostly midfield and if GWS can get 7 and another 15 from Tigers (they supposedly want Hobbs). Tigers in line with another R1 as they have massive points to pay the premium for Doggies 17

Tigers have picks 7, 15, 26, 28, 42 and 47. Probably landing 38 ( Chol compo) and could land 40 from North in the deal for Coleman-Jones.

Those deals could leave them with 2, 17, 26 and 28 to take to the draft.

Picks 38, 40, 42 and 47 are equivalent to pick 8 - more than enough to trump any other bidder for pick 17

Good deal for both parties, Tiger likely want Callaghan and thinking about it GWS really don't need Callaghan. They've got Whitfield, Ash, Kelly who are very similar to him! Going back to 7 with 15 or 17 would likely get them an Andrew and Van Rooyen, two big needs for them.

Callaghan adds elite midfield class for the Tigers, and there will still be some great talent left at 15/17, 26 and 28.

 

[Bacchus]

Vozzo on leave.

Not sure correlation equals causation, but they do seem to be making the right decisions in his absence.

Nisbett is a pretty experienced operator.

 

[Bender_]

Who’s this year’s Nakia?

I feel like Erasmus. Johnson's got too plain a name to throw around with any real disappointed emotion.

I'm hoping we can come to a board consensus soon though, I don't know enough draftees names and want to make sure I'm in the loop for when I get upset for something I know little about.

 

[Agent93]

If pick 10 on draft night isn't a pure Midfielder fold the club.

What if pick 10 on draft night isn't WCE's pick?

 

[daddy_4_eyes]

52 for SPS is fair enough.
Fringe player at a club which was never in the running for finals, who now is even further down the pecking order with Cerra and Hewett arriving.

Out of contract and has no future at Carlton. Can likely get to the Eagles via the PSD.

Correct price

 

[Hap Hapablap]

looks like these SPP rumours have legs. partner wants to move back here and expecting their first child soon. hopefully we dont break the bank.

SPS for pick 52 is a no brainer.

cant believe geelong want pick 8 for a player that has played not many games

 

[bh90210fan]

If we get SPS and SPP through the door I won’t be surprised if the club takes a tall with their first pick thinking that the midfield stocks are sorted.

 

[Balls In]

I think its quite reasonable to spend our first rounder on a quality half back or a ruck.

 

[ziad]

I think we would have only added depth not the cream

 

[Dark Sharks]

There's not enough highlight packages to tell.

 

[Rowan18]

Vozzo on leave.

Not sure correlation equals causation, but they do seem to be making the right decisions in his absence.

They would have been working on SPS for months, if not years really (from monitoring him for the draft he was selected in, keeping in touch with his manager, sounding him out regularly etc). All of this is clearly a team effort.

 

[Miguel Sanchez]

You can’t believe Geelong would do that?

Yep, and not due to injury. They've dropped him or played him as the sub and preferred Jed Bews, Brad Close and Jake Kolodjashnij ahead of him.

No one is paying pick 8 for any of those guys, and Clark by Geelong's own barometer is worse than them.

 

[bh90210fan]

Same here. Just don’t think the decision makers will agree

For sure. My comment re Vozzo was very much tongue in cheek.

I'm hoping our recruitment and list management is more than just one person making decisions! (no doubt it is!).

 

[Happy Mastenator]

SPS for pick 52.

SPP is under contract. If Port are looking to trade him its because Port would like the salary cap relief, which means we shouldn't pay overs.

Would rather use 10, 29 and 35 on kids. If whatever we can get for Brander is sent of SPP could live with it.

Good call, that's the exact type of thing we would do.

For what's its worth I think we should be all in on Erasmus (sounds like a LeCras/ Dusty type whose body will develop to be a bull & can hunt the footy). If he's gone the idea of trading that pick to somewhere between 14-19 & scoring an additional 2nd would hold a fair bit of appeal If we do pick up Erasmus, completely agree we still need 2 more 18 yr old genuine mids as we all seem to want.

With Gov's hip issues and lack of KPD depth (ironically which could have been Brander's best shot) have a feeling we're eyeing off Bazzo too. On that; can anyone attest to Bazzo's laconic approach? Will it affect his draft range???

100%!

Wish they would hurry up and re-sign Hurn and Kennedy
