You missed SDK in 2019 and Holmes in 2020 - really, since 2014 our first-round picks have been pretty good. Cooper Stephens the only real blunder, with Georgiades taken two picks later.

Losing Jordan Clark wasn't ideal but we used that pick on Conway so it might turn out alright.

2023 - Connor O'Sullivan - pick 11
2022 - Jhye Clark - pick 8
2020 - Max Holmes - pick 20
2019 - Cooper Stephens - pick 16
2019 - SDK - pick 19
2018 - Jordan Clark - pick 15

Correct the myth that we never pick anyone decent with a first round pick hasn't been true for almost a decade

Those season highlights of Martin mostly reveal one thing to me.

Unselfish player.

Handy trait for a Geelong hopeful.

 

[Gee Class Loco]

Who would he replace in Saturday's 22?

Duncan

 

[Gee Class Loco]

Watching the site froth themselves into a frenzy thinking SDK will leave because he's been left out is amusing.

Two top 10 picks TIA.

 

[Gee Class Loco]

WTF is this bloke?

 

[iameviljez]

Duncan

Pretty sure Martin's not played half back at AFL level.

Riley Garcia. Drafted in the top ten, now 23yo.

 

[BORIS332]

Martin’s a proven high quality forward, why would we play him off a HBF? This board is bizarre.

The question is why wouldn’t we.
Multi positional players.
The key to having a top squad/side.

That’s ok… one of best half backs was a highly skilled half forward that never played behind the ball and should’ve won a Brownlow.
He coaches Port Adelaide these days.

 

[Gunf]

I am still yet to see who Martin would replace in our forward line.

They are better over the last few years and can actually stay on the park.

So unless we are getting him for depth or as others stated a different role i don't see it.

#62 in the draft. Not quite top 10.

Any good? Haven’t really heard of him tbh.

It wasn’t a serious comment
It was trolling

Who ever said he’d replace someone in our forward line??
Highly skilled players tend to be more adaptable to playing various roles.
You’d be thinking the powers that be see 2-3 different positions or roles in mind for JM to fulfill.
What they are. I can only imagine they'd be all over the park.

Sorry buddy.
Trying to watch Port hurt some swan players.
Need it to get Ruff and tuff with plenty of bruises.

It’s nearly at that point
Remarkable that port beat the hawks
Still not sure how that happened

Hah, I see Ralphy is trying to create an SDK is disgruntled story in the broadcast tonight.

It’s soo pathetic, Tiggies nuffies gonna be Tiggies nuffies.

Twomey and Edmund both said it’s rubbish just yesterday and Wednesday.

Yeah heard that.. why would he not be unimpressed he’s not playing? As long as he understands he got injured at the wrong time and he’s form over the last 2 years rendered him not an automatic selection then all good

 

[Lana]

Shifter likes the depth in this draft...

I'm pretty sure he'd find something nice to say about my draft chances

Yeah I’m hearing ya.
Glad they did though.
As they were the form danger side this season IMO.

Why wouldn’t you play a 40 goal forward on a HBF? Maybe because you lose 40 goals?

When’s he kicked 40 goals for us?
