Review PSD:- What do we think?

[Bic]

I was laughing when we picked up another midfielder with our first pick, not because I disagree with WH, but how BF would react

Jaryd Cachia- Will be our Brad Sewell of the rookie draft
Joseph Dare- Clone of Andrew Mackie
Levi Casboult-
Simon White- No idea.
Joshua Donaldson- Red head!

Overall a good draft, all the best to these guys.

 

[BlueGibbs2011]

Particularly happy with the rookie draft. Really like the following 3:

Jaryd Cachia
Levi Casboult
Simon White

 

[Alpha1]

Anyone know much about White?

 

[BlueGibbs2011]

Why change your spots now?

Let it go - overall Tanks post was positive.

I have a few Subiaco games on DVD, I can't really add anything over and above the bio's already posted.....he's competitive, sounds willing to put in the hard yards required on a rookie list, has AFL athleticism, can play tall or small (sometimes playing CHB, then switched onto Jeff Farmer in the WAFL GF), forward or back....brave with neat skills. HIs coach, Scott Watters is a fan and thought he was an AFL prospect pre-national draft.

Linked to WCE, not really sure why they passed on him, perhaps they wanted to concentrate on their small forwards needs and didn't see him as a priority.

I had him ranked in my top 50 (I think TGR did as well) for the ND let alone RD.

Some of the WA posters might have seen him in the WAFL finals and might want to add more. I'll do my best to come up with some highlights when i have some spare time....maybe over the Christmas break.

We love our WA kids at Carlton don't we, how many WA kids do we have on our list now.

What you and Stank have to do is regain any cred you had here by making intelligent posts. Then your posts will be treated with respect. You earn that or not, up to you.

Why change your spots now?

What change? Like you said, if even one of those boys become regular senior player we'd have done well. Hence it is hard to say whether I'm happy or not when it comes to rookie selections. I can't say I'm disappointed with today's selections if anything I'm glad we grabbed at least one player capable of playing as a tall forward, now just have to wait and see if they make it.

The point is that it just starts the posts all over again - even you should be able to see that! You add to the escalation and it continues on when i call you a bumpkin!

 

[waldo48]

Carlton supporters will give it a D on the grounds we passed on Panos, Temel and Hartigan yet again

And these "supporters" are experts who go and watch every TAC, VFL, SANFL AND WAFL etc game. I suppose they are also full bottle on how the kids play the game and their upside.

Why don't we just sack the whole Recruiting Department of Carlton and put these people in. I am sure they can do a better job!

Give it a rest!

You need to recalibrate your sarcasm meter Mr pepper

 

[The Toad]

I have a sand filled door sausage that stops me having any issues with drafts, you should totally get one dude.

Your becoming quite the comedian 30year. Very Funny

Good start

 

[AndSmithMustScore]

yep, because im sick of people with no idea complaining that we didn't get this bloke because he is a key forward and so forth... i trust the club and so should they...

Did you trust the club during the period when we drafted the likes of Daniel Harford and Mick Martyn?

 

[40yearBLUE]

O.K. Who's the "maybe" in the poll?

I'm maybe and so's my wife.

Oh, so we're unintelligent for having an opinion that differs from you are we? Talk about intelligence yet all you do is try to upset people like me and BG with stupid posts that hardly make any sense. Stank? LOL is that the best you can come up with? Well, not too bad for a 6 year old. I don't know if you've noticed it or not but I rarely respond to you by quoting you because I don't really respect you at all. You somehow think you have a right to call posters names which are so stupid they only make you look like an idiot anyway, simply because their opinions are different to yours and a couple of others. You're not a civilised person and you're not a funny person and this is the last time I will ever quote you because I really don't care about what you have to say and it doesn't offend me at all. Take my advice and quit the idiotic name calling because seriously it's only making you look dumb and it's embarrassing.

 

[Alpha1]

Who are the three no's?

 

[Kramer1]

Seems a little bit of mongrel is a definite pre-requisite these days.

A tough little Italian, a dairy farmers son in Dare, the little bit I can find on White notes him being pretty hard at it, the physically imposing Casboult, and I really like Donaldson's highlight package...does very little to disprove the theory of the aggressive ginger gene. Add in another mildly deranged Irishman. Couldn't find a more disparate bunch of footballers but all look to be tough competitiors. Nice one Hughesy.

 

[40yearBLUE]

Ah another with a memory of the selective kind. And S Oriely and M McGuane and P McKenna and P Bedford ...............shall I start on all the champions or do you get the point I made earlier to incog? Yes we have made blunders, not this admin, the last but all clubs have periods where they did not do well. We can count on more success than any other club so notwithstanding some howlers of all admins, I think the current admin has some runs on the board now and has earnt some trust and respect. Dont you? Especially with rookie transformations.

Mate I am not the one copping disrespect from respected rated posters. If you want respect you have to earn it. But if you want to remain class clown then go for it, I dont give a flying one, just offering some friendly advice. If you dont like it jam it where you usually place your head. Firmly up your.....

 

[invinciBlues]

22 votes for Yes, yet we picked no Panos?

What a bunch of pathetic whingers we have around here. Doesn't take long for some people to forget it seems.

Because....

Port took Cloke.

All around happiness from me Might even buy a Port interstate membership to show my gratitude. God bless those stupid bastards

 

[Alpha1]

Four maybes now, nice always good to have difference of opinions.

 

[Tanks_Alot]

I voted maybe because I don't know much about White and Donaldson and Touhy is just an experimental player who is probably worth taking late in a rookie draft.

30YB, why don't you get your head out of your bum for a change.

Yes the club has made mistakes, has in the past, is currently making them now and will in the future, its a management thing, players, finances, members, sponsors and so on. You know what, that all applies to myself and my own business, stuff happens, you cant get it right all the time.

Now take your rose tainted glasses off b4 extracting your head (unless they also happen to be safety glasses ) and have a look around here in the real world. Where unconditional love is for small children but its reality that counts for us adults.

Yes, the club has made mistakes, all the clubs have made mistakes, that's life, imperfect people making decisions and tough calls (partic with regard to drafting).

I always thought that debate was healthy, but Jesus not on this board, with posters such as yourself who have become the "blue police", its an imperfect world, makes it much more interesting though

Anyway, just for you
