List Mgmt. Thread for discussing pick 7 in the 2013 Rookie Draft - Charlie Cameron

[GROTTO]

North took Joel Tippett. Good luck with dad.

I think he will do fine mate, no need to comment. He has returned to his home state.

Wait a minute.

 

[Stripple]

Might be just me, but have we ever had a Charlie on our team?

Anyways, the kid looks like a young Betts (the face that is).

Just Roo.

Sorry if late with joke.

 

[Schulzycrow]

If Nutta has been a two strides quicker it would have made all the difference. Just wasn't quick enough to close down defenders.

 

[Donkey Magoo]

Haha I've been tempted to make this comparison...

Me too.

 

[DangerSloane]

The question has to be asked, why didnt the Dockers or Eagles look at him???

Something to do with Lecras, Hill, Walters, Ballantyne probably. Not an area of need for either side.

They did, you guys had the earlier pick.

I assume Grotto means in the ND.

One of those things really as your poster alluded to earlier.
Freo- Walters, Crozier, Neale, Ballantyne
WCE- Hill, Newman, Lecras

All of the guys listed above have many years in them.

Where as you guys have lost Callinan and gained Betts.

In an ideal world Betts and Porps gives you 3 good years and then Cameron starts coming into his own for you guys.

It wouldnt suprise me if the Club tried a Crouch/Battersby in 2014, nothing like a bit of optimism about the place for us.

2013 was one of the worse years for us, especially considering the optimism that it promised after missing the GF by a kick in 2012.

Tippett saga dragged on and on and on, Bailey scandal, Trigg booted out, Tex doing a knee.

Must have killed a cat on Friday the 13th while driving under a ladder.

Agreed. Have we been given our sanctions for the Essendon drug and rookie scandals yet? No doubt they will destroy 2014.

From what Sando said, his biggest problem was his age. A bit of tragedy that he started so late. A struggling team like Melbourne or the Saints could of have done with a small forward. How depressingly sad must it be to be supporting those teams.

No flag since the dawn of time. Throw in Freo and Dogs and its just shocking.

The Dogs have not made a GF since the wheel was invented.

 

[GROTTO]

I do like that Charlie certainly does not seem like he will be a want to go home type - mainly because he's kind of been on the road for quite a few years anyway

The indigenous players do tend to form a unique bond with each other that is different to other cultures playing AFL, having Betts and Pets to make him feel at home can only help with that.

What role does Macca have with the AFL/Crows at the moment?

Mate its been 15 years since we sniffed sucess. We are hardly in a position to judge.

Im sure Macca does some ambassador work for AFL ; indigenous program with Crows ; and was announced Norwood reserves coach last week i think.

 

[Crowfoot]

This kid has a lot of things in his favor and given the right environment training and encouragement could be one of the best rookie pickups ever.

I'd take one last good year from Porps at this point. Been struggling ever since 2009. As most players from that team have...

I don't there are many players who go home, go home because they um, want to go home

Its not you its me, I miss my family.

 

[JP Sauce]

Been called CC by his mates i have been told

Not a bad nickname I must say!

Haha it's also my nickname. The nickname of champions.

Now we need to find Niles...

I think that's quite correct on reflection

 

[Marty64]

Fists full of $ does help the go home factor...

 

[Sanders]

Big foot is more real than the go home factor

 

[Bailey01]

Is CC any good

 

[Coopers]

Is CC any good

Well I was always kind of hoping that the Nanny would take a strange twist and turn into a porno.
That would have let us know, I guess.
