[omgfridge]

far<k me dead, do you lot know what you're doing or what.

This is the most surreal draft I can remember.

Have killed it and ignored our usual trope of overreaching on speculative random picks.

 

[eaglespremiers]

Does Carlton want Hotton?

 

[BeornJ]

Awesome! Very very happy with this draft!

 

[TerryFilk]

So how do we intend to deal with our tall forward issue?

I think next year we will likely go tall, Dan Curtin would be on our radar

 

[squashface]

Is Burgiel the first kid not interviewed or even shown?

Nope

What don’t you like? My main gripe is Ginbey over Phillipou and not taking the chance on George

 

[timeforanother22]

He’s good, very quick, versatile, scoreboard impact, I think he’ll be a much better Petrucelle

Well if he has hamstrings that won’t be hard

‘This is silly’: Ruckman’s disbelief at surprise Eagles pick

West Coast have cast an eye toward life after Nic Naitanui, taking the first ruckman of the draft in another shock pick before turning to a pace ace. SEE THE EAGLES’ PICKS

thewest.com.au

Barnett said he was happy to move to Perth to get his opportunity and said working alongside Naitanui would be massive.

“I’m lost for words. This is silly,” he said. “Obviously Nic Nat is a massive role model. “To actually learn from him is unreal. It’s second to none.”

We smoked it lads, chardonnays long into the night on the cards

He is too fast to catch on camera

 

[RookiePick]

What Tall forward issue? We have Darling for a couple more years at least, Allen, Waterman and whatsisname.

 

[dinnaz]

Jed Hagan @ 64 ???
Or are we done

 

[Bleedblueandgold]

Whoever gets Hotton will get an absolute bargain.
Will be pissed if Freo get him at their first selection.

 

[eagles rule]

Ginbey, Hewett, Barnett, Burgiel.

Almost perfect.

smashing the draft this year ..

 

[Keys]

Nailing your picks boys.

far<k me dead, do you lot know what you're doing or what.

Bipolar areas

 

[Sammy J]

Can’t argue with the picks. Needed another developing ruck, and it sounds like we got the best in the draft. Burgiel adds class and toe, two things we badly need.

Good work team.

 

[JackOutback]

I guess the only question left is do we take a final swing with our fifth pick?

 

[30stm3891]

Best ruck in the draft can also play forward.

Hope B Williams don't feel the pressure

 

[eaglespremiers]

He is too fast to catch on camera

 

[Farang83150]

No way is that the real Pieman, he's tied up in a hotel room somewhere.

"ThE PiEMaN NEVeR tAkeS MidS!!!"

Taken 8 mids in the last 4 drafts (mid-season & 2021 ND , mid-season & 2022 ND)

Happy now campaigners? Guess Simmo really wasn't telling porkies when he said before the 2021 draft that he wanted mids, mids & more mids.

 

[Crimson King]

What Tall forward issue? We have Darling for a couple more years at least, Allen, Waterman and whatsisname.

Hopefully, Jack Williams becomes a decent player.

Keeler with our first RD pick
