Taking Lucas before Talia . . .

[Hodgepodge]

Carlton have done it again, taking a midfielder in Lucas when the obvious selection was available.

Talia is a strong-marking versatile KPP in the mould of Michael Hurley minus the ethnic beatings.

Fail persists at Carlton

They better hope the recent visit of Jarrod Waite to Jullian Fellar's practise was nothing serious (the procedure was on his "good" leg).

I can't believe how pathetic they are at drafting, unless they have the number 1 pick (which they **** up anyway, Cotchin >>>>> ProActiv), they just completely fall to pieces.

Talia would have been their best tall if they took him, but I guess when you have the likes of Brad Fisher, why would you bother with more talls?

Carlton fans were going nuts on the radio, gotta love em. Thanks again for making Draft Night the best comedy event of the year Carlton.

Surprised they didn't take Jetta to cover for their failure of taking Yarran last year.

 

[Black Flag]

Yeah, another mid lol. Would have preferred a KPP. On the upside, he was predicted to go top 10 so is obviously quality. Further, he can play as a leading mid sized forward. Has a great kick.

I am just happy we had a pick in the Top 25.
Someone started a thread a few weeks ago about how good the talent was in the top 25.
I cannot believe any club would have been stupid enough to trade away a top 25 pick in this draft

We will see how Lucas goes.
They are all as good as each other at the moment as far as i am concerned.

Omg... epic face palm.

You don't mind trading quality for quality. Carlton just swapped Fev for an untried midfielder.

Surely KPP was the way to go. Talia even plays midfield pretty well.

Hope Mclean goes alright.

We traded a 29 year old FF for a 20 year old KPP who would have gone before any tall in this draft.

Surely KPP was the way to go. Talia even plays midfield pretty well.

If Talia is that good, the club with KPD as fragile as Gilham, Croad (Matt Egan board), Gibson and Schoenmakers would have kept pick eight and reached for him.

A bit like Thorp and Dowler.

 

[Bert1]

Take your pick Carlton.......

 

[Rise_up_Stiffy]

Thanks Carlton!

 

[Mentallo]

Hmmm.

We lost pick 11 and gained pick 12.

We still had a top 25 pick which as posted in another thread was gold in this draft.

 

[DBLUES]

We deserve every piece of shit thrown at us. What a shocking decision.

And to upgrade Sam Jacobs instead of taking a punt on Matt Maguire.
The lions bent us over again.

I do admire one thing about you

You are relentless



BTW - taking Grimley before Vardy

Didn't know that dawks were considered ethnic.

 

[Spluff]

The Blues don't need any KPP. Judd is their FF, and I'm told Waite will fill every other one of their key positions.

You missed the part where your only key forward is included in that deal. After trading your only other key forward a couple of years before that.
But hey you got Yarran.

Rhan Hooper

Rhan Hooper.

 

[Invigoration]

The best is looking at all the threads proclaiming their love for Talia and how they should, in no possible way, consider drafting a midfielder with their first pick.

 

[PottSie2]

Rhan Hooper.

Carlton's forward line

 

[Black Flag]

Even better is reading posts about how thrilled Coll is about getting a discarded, injury prone midfielder.

You guys desperate for mids or what?

 

[swans16]

Carlton has did it again.
Bottom 8 for a couple years.

 

[La Dispute]

Lucas has to be one of the steals of the draft.

Absolute gun
