Welcome Welcome to Adelaide: Sid Draper - Pick 4, 2024

[Carn The Texan]

Very charitable of Sid to actually allow him to do an interview...others might have declined after the hoo ha that went on a few months back

Incredible - Draper really seems like a complete professional. Totally unfazed.

Along with TT, the HAPPIEST ever draftee for our club in the last decade or 2

Hopefully helped scare of the interstate teams with his close family and loving our club. It can’t hurt

 

[Kane McGoodwin]

Love how Draper personally rang Nicks a couple of days ago & implored Nicks to draft him.

Nicks apparently just wished him well wherever he ends up.

I wonder if he (indirectly) gave Carlton the impression that he wanted Crows badly and swayed them to not draft him.

I’m back!
Welcome Sid!

I still contend Rozee looks a bit like a young Ricky Gervais:

Young Ricky Gervais looks like David Bowie.

Connor Rozee He looks like Wesley Crusher.

I’m back!
Welcome Sid!

Don't worry, it's been a quiet 24 hours lol.

Why don't campaigners like Josh Money get what's coming to them? How are they just allowed to continue operating like nothing even happened?

Because his KPI is engagement not journalism.

 

[George Kramer]

I’m back!
Welcome Sid!

Where you been?

 

[BRL121]

Where you been?

Same place as you: purgatory.

 

[WheresGroomgone]

Josh Flog Money wants to be the next Cornes/Rucci. No wonder why Tiffany Warne dumped him. fk, Tiffany is one gorgeous woman

the phone call from Sid to Nicksy three days before the draft was, you would think, to reiterate that the Josh Badmoney write up was codswallop - why aren't journalists made to retract or apologise when their info is proven to be wrong?

 

[MarcusP2]

Yep JHF I would take over him going forward

I think it’s the ability to go forward and kick 2-3 goals to help ice game

It’s a unique and important trait

Robbie Gray did it to us too but was more a forward then mid

Is also very good at an intercept down back late in the game.

 

[Jeffcrowe]

I think JHF will never have the maturity to do what you are saying, his career will end up more Jake Stringer. He was nothing special in the finals and had more than a few games where he acted like a spoiled kid

Definitely what happens if he goes south

Few good signs for him though including his off seasons and venturing away off his own bat to train

 

[Jeffcrowe]

TT vs Finlayson
Fog vs Marshall (MG admittedly is pretty good)
Butts vs Ratagloea
Murray vs BZT

Our defence is way better and will continue to get better

 

[ams4crows]

If Essendon are really offering three 2nd rounders Port would be silly to turn it down when they don't have a 1st next year

 

[cleanhands]

What? Why didn't Draper refuse the opportunity?

Certainly know what my response to an interview would have been

 

[relapse]

Matt Whitlock>>>>>>>>>>Jack Whitlock

Wonder how long before he reunites with his brother at North?

 

[Jeffcrowe]

Matt Whitlock>>>>>>>>>>Jack Whitlock

Got it the other way around

But yeah now I’ve changed my mind

Matt Whitlock>>>>>>>>>>Jack Whitlock

Everyone thought Ben King would've reunited with bro at Saints, but next year will be his 7th with GC.

 

[FR0GGY]

Where you been?

Allegedly made allegations of the exact thing that happened to me

 

[119others]

AFL controls media accreditation.

What they didn’t control very well is access to press conferences at the old Footy Park. A very drunk mate and I snuck in not once, but twice, over the years and sat at the back a few rows from Rooch (one was a Pre Season GF when Bernie Vince was BOG the week after flashing his dacks or similar back in his hometown).

JHF is also forced to do it as they have **** all forward of the ball in terms of quality. Whilst it's handy, they won't go anywhere relying on it.

I like my midfielders doing the business in the midfield and the key forwards kicking those goals.
