Get on it

I think the Sumich comments are a ruse. I've seen Trew interviewed a few times now and he seems a decent kid.

Remember the job Eagles did on everyone making them believe Jack Darling

Ollie Henry should start his version of the Grundy "ill only play for Geelong"

This article does not help that however

‘It’s a business’: Cameron trade leaves Henry bracing for move away from Geelong

Ollie Henry used to drop letters in Jimmy Bartel’s letter box on game day, wishing him luck. But a trade with GWS, where Bartel is coincidentally now a director, has Henry bracing for a move away from Geelong.

The best outcome for us may be if gets drafted by a Freo or perhaps GWS. A Melb club may close enough for him to settle... although Id not think it will be easy to deal with GWS if he wants out.

Just don't sign a new contract, easily done! Claim home sickness. Lose him for nothing to a melbourne club or just play ball.

Macraedie.
Selwood basically said we are likely to only take 2 picks so the 3rd spot will either be for a rookie or a DFA/SSP pick later on.

Is this a genuine rumor, or just bigfooty at it's best rumor?

 

[MelbCat]

why not get a couple like macreadie .. put them into the vfl side ..and if we like someone we can take him mid year or whatever

Are we guaranteed to get them or do we have to go through the draft and hope for the best?

 

[Pure_Ownage]

The latter unless we leave a spot open and take them in march in the SSP.

We'll give them their future 2nd back

I had him in my top 5 for our selections range.

 

[Two Planks]

Cal Twomey Phantom Draft has both Bruhn and Henry going to Essendon.

Not the best outcome for us... they like to draft Falcons..and most stay..

 

[BigCat1]

The most interesting thing out of Cals phantom and “inside info” is just how much clubs don’t rate this draft after the first 15 picks. Multiple clubs trying to trade out into next year. Sounds like you actually can’t give away your 2nd round pick away and you can forget about a 3rd round pick. They are worthless. We may even not use 51 which will be as low as 42.

I’ve also found it interesting that over the last few years we have been linked to, or in fact taken, the same players Port have and vice versa. Again this year both clubs heavily linked to Baldwin.

Disappointing if the Bombers grab Bruhn and Henry. Short of us somehow getting them GWS, Freo and Adel are the next best. If Henry goes interstate he’s a monty to come back. His article today hardly filled other clubs with confidence talking about his love for the Cats and his family. Not sure many of us love the Cats enough to drop a letter in Bartels letterbox each game

 

[Pure_Ownage]

I dont think they will take both as they need talls and mids but i think they will take henry and i think gws or north will take bruhn in the teens.

i really dont want to be forced into dealing with dodo the clown if we want to bring Henry back.

 

[year of the cat]

I thought Cal had some mail on our pick 27? Sounds like it’s a complete guess by his article.

 

[Larry Donohue]

if Cal is right, perhaps we'll use 27 for Shannon Neale 201cm agile mobile project ruck
and trade in geelong's future round 2 for Kaine Baldwin 193cm big marking forward

as a DFA 198cm KPD
would cover big boy holes in squad

personally Id prefer to get Neale, Ford and Macreadie. the little bit I saw of macreadie he was pretty solid
only problem was jones, marchbank and wietering filled his spot as key dedenders

could have eddie promoting ford. what a bonanza

Neale could compete with greek freak for future or cover ruck spots

 

[year of the cat]

Hard to pass on Isaiah Winder if he was available I reckon though we could see a Kelly mk11 trade down the track....

 

[Pure_Ownage]

I think baldwin might be a possibility. Although in this type of draft who knows how left field we go.

I also wouldnt be surprised if we trade up on the night which would potentially change who we pick.

Massive risk taking a guy following 2 recos. I could entertain him at a late pick but nothing before 40. How did he test? Agility?

Ruckmen for 2 out of the 4 kids brought in? No thank you. Tsapatolis can compete with Stanley, Sav, Fort.

 

[gaz love x]

Why is there so much talk about this Macreadie guy? I've never heard of him but one game for Carlton in the past three seasons doesn't thrill me.

I have to say the raw numbers don't strike a chord. Hoping that there's something i don't see

He was injured a lot. It would be a case of if you think he is talented and his body can hold together.

“Injured a lot” = pass
