Its like Xmas Eve on Bigfooty. :drunk:
Hey Ogilvie you campaigner, wheres me f*cken Rankine, Ive had a look at all my picks and theres nothing I would have taken.
 
On the flip side, imagine last year knocking back the offer of our 1st rounder this year for 21 (later after academy/FS) last year. That’d be rejecting 21 for 8

If someone offered us a 1st rounder for 21 you’d take it unless there was a player we rated very high who had slid.

There is big upside with minimal downside.

Also not sure if mentioned but WC have 1st pick of day 2 not us (according to road to the draft podcast)
Wouldn't it depend on how many players are bid on?

I can see Hately going to port, he has a Russian henchman look about him that would be perfect for Port. He would be perfectly cast as a disposable bad guy in a bad action movie.
 
Fox Footy showing highlights of a 2012 game Port v GCS at Footy Park with tarps. Dixon kicking goals and sinking the Power.
I went nuts after that game, was having a couple of days up at the beaches of Caloundra and invited everyone in the complex to come and watch the replay with me

Suck a dick Poort
 
Speaking of the draft software crashing tonight, I hope BigFooty survives the draft, because it's only Wednesday and it's already been wonkier than Mike Tindall's nose all day
I'm just hoping my AFL Live Pass, doesn't croak it tomorrow night ......every chance though :'(

Been fine for me. Is this one of those unique rabbit issues, like the hatred for the crouches, and your fat head not fitting in the member caps? :D
 
there's Talk that Hawthorn might bite at giving up their 1st next year for an early 20's pick, their first pick is 53 and they really want Stocker..... allegedly

in the AFL, an 18 year old recruit would be well and truley 'out' before the draft, I'm interested to see how the media goes about it.

Statistically speaking there is no way that every AFL footballer on each Clubs list is straight.

A day will come when players will be able to be open.

Interesting point you raised, in America a gay draftee was pictured kissing his boyfriend when selected. It was met with applause and congratulations by Obama back in the day.

I honestly believe that there are openly gay players on lists and in this years draft. Im just convinced that players wish to keep that side of their life private and their team mates respect that. Clubs and managers may also advise players to keep under the radar to avoid the risk of becoming a mini celebrity side show and dealing with the prejudice and jibes over the fence which can add massive pressure to perform. I respect that. In reality its no ones business. You only have to look at how Indigenous players are still treated from time to time to understand why gay players think '**** that'

Yep I felt the same way as well. Rightly so too. The pressure would be insane, not to mention the ridicule.

I mean ffs we had a banana thrown at Betts in 2017.

It will take a few more decades for gay players to be embraced and accepted by all. Which is tragic.
 
Yeah I saw that, what could Smith possibly have that prevents him from going interstate? I can’t think of anything

Since when could you get a medical certificate for home sickness???

Psychiatric Report?
