List Mgmt. Selections 30 + 47

[Ahern2Boof]

We're armed with picks 30 and 47 to go into this year's National Draft, now that the trade millennium is finally over. Also we have picks 65, 77 and 83 but I doubt we'll see much action there.

Who do we get with our two picks? If I could have it my way, and if these players are available, i'd pick Dayle Garlett at 30, and Mitch Thorp at 47. Garlett for obvious reasons, Thorp because if one of Tarrant, Black or Petrie go down with injury early next season, I don't think Majak can fill the hole due to a limited pre-season. Thorp, with some immense talent that he finally seems to be able to use for the best, would be worth a spot on our list.

If we do use pick 65, we could even go for Joel Tippett as KPD insurance. The draft is less than a month away, I can't wait.

 

[Kimbo]

Thank god, I was wondering when someone would start this thread. A long time coming.

 

[the big lebowski]

I want that colom guy with a late pick. Missed the whole year with injury but was rated as an early KPF selection last year before getting injured.

...Cam Conlon?

...Cam Conlon?

That's the one. Seems worth a late selection from what I have heard.

 

[The Nostradamus]

Pick 30: Impey, Templeton, Kennedy-Harris, Amon. All small forwards who can play midfield
Pick 47: Nankervis, Hourigan, Hayes, D Cameron. KPP
Pick 65: Dayle Garlett

 

[LpH94]

I would agree and hope we get Garlett. With our other pick depending on if we de-list Mabon or not, I would want a young ruck that we can develop or even a you Key forward or back that we can help develop as well.

 

[shinboner magic]

30- Ben Ross

47. Ben warren

Take that and run

 

[roos_fanatic08]

Pick 30: Impey, Templeton, Kennedy-Harris, Amon. All small forwards who can play midfield
Pick 47: Nankervis, Hourigan, Hayes, D Cameron. KPP
Pick 65: Dayle Garlett

Nankervis is a slower, shorter Mabon. No thanks.

 

[Pykie]

Cam Conlon will go in the 20's or early 30's imo, especially to a side with a few picks.

Brisbane would be crazy not to go for him, with the glut of mid range picks they have, they need to roll the dice on a few elite talents.

In saying that, I'd be wrapped with him at either of the picks, as long as we pickup a small forward with the other.

 

[Johndory]

pick 30 - Darcy Gardiner or Dayle Garlett if either are still available at that stage. I doubt Gardiner will still be there though.

 

[WesternRoo]

For mine we more urgently need a quick small defender.
Hine is not up to it, neither is McMahon and Atley and Mullet are better off half back-wing.

 

[GreatBradScott]

Our game day squad at this rate is just going to be 21 midfielders and Goldstein.

 

[Harris 10]

Take a punt on Gartlett and I'd be happy with Cain.

2 blokes that could have an impact next year.

 

[nicko74]

Garlett and a key defender/forward.... Mitch Thorp maybe?

 

[Twinkletoes]

I want that colom guy with a late pick.

...Cam Conlon?

That's the one.

For a split second there tbl my tired 3.22am eyes interpreted your first statement above as a wish to see a Proctologist.

(Note to self - get some sleep FFS!)

 

[Roos29]

30: Hartung, Kennedy-Harris, impey
47: garlett, conlon
65: Joel tippet

 

[GreatBradScott]

30: Hartung, Kennedy-Harris, impey
47: garlett, conlon
65: Joel tippet

We get Kennedy Harris and Garlett I am laughing so hard, our squad *if it wasn't already* would just be one giant offensive weapon of death

 

[boneofshin]

What's the chances of Tippett being available at 65? Surely with the demand for KPPs he'll get taken somewhere in the second or third round?

 

[BlakeDebeljak]

Yeah we really need to address this key backman issue a-saap. A good mix of mobility, strength and skill is needed. Probably what Delaney lacked, although, I thought Kennedy had

 

[Shagga is all Class]

For mine we more urgently need a quick small defender.
Hine is not up to it, neither is McMahon and Atley and Mullet are better off half back-wing.

Don't rate McDonald? Reckon he will be down back when he starts.

I'd go for a small forward/mid and a KPD.

 

[Rockstar6]

I like the look of Matt Sully from Geelong's VFL team. Might get a b it of deja vu like we did with Scott Thompson as Sully is in the same position as Thompson. Same team, mature aged and just waiting for an opportunity

 

[ArjenTheGreat]

Pick 30: flog Garlett
Pick 47: even bigger flog Thorpe

Would round off the list magnificently.

 

[DarwinRoo]

30: someone that actually wants to be an AFL footballer
47: see above

Garlett and Thorpe can piss off.

Not everyone enters the world with the tools to be what everyone else thinks they should be.
