2024 Draft Thread

[bullus_hit]

High risk high reward strategy by the RFC.

It's loaded with risk, I think we'll need some luck on the injury front, talent can't be questioned however so the booms should be core players. We'll probably need a 50% strike rate to make this draft work. Grabbing two forwards should ensure one hit I would hope, Faull & Armstrong are actually strangely complimentary, I can see them working together, probably Faull playing further up the ground.

we are doing what GWS and Suns did, and kicking the pick magic pudding down the road

I'm all for it, as long as we don't keep doing what the Suns are doing.

Interesting decision will have to make as no doubt will get offers . May not be for a tall as it appears the clubs didn’t rate this years crop of talls .

Without knowing much of what’s left I wouldn’t mind getting Dobson , otherwise a future first from anyone and they can give us a pick in this years second round , Brissy owe us a favour so how about future 1 and 34 for 27

I'm a Dobson fan so I would be happy with that pick.

Brissy don't have 34. Next pick is 46, plus I can't see them trading their 1st next year as they have another highly rated mid in their academy next year.

Though I could see them wanting to add someone like Whitlock.

Oh crap more risks! I love it. We won't go down wondering

*smile* it. If you're gunna go down swingin, make sure you're swingin hard. As Tarzan would say ahhhoooheeeehurrrgh or something similar to that while playing bongo rhythms on his chest.

I thought they only gave up picks in the 40s tonight and still had 27 and 34 , I must have misread mrp

They traded them away really early, right at the start of the night.

Blair's got rsi from phone calls.

 

[Sintiger]

We have build our foundations.

Gibcus, Trainor, Faull, Armstrong, Grey, Fawcett. Suddenly we have developing talls

 

[DuD_Delist]

what happened to dusty handing out jumpers tonight?

You mean to say the media got it wrong about Dusty again?

Dusty trolling the media again. Did anyone catch that ad on Fox with Dusty and Jack. Hahahaha

 

[Berwick boy]

Wow thought they would go Jack Whitlock. Jack looked gutted that Matt was picked before him.

Bragging rights forever from little bro !

 

[Brettstigers]

If they can stay healthy these selections have the talent to play a lot of games of football for the 1s.

A pity though that we haven't just tweaked the injury god's nose as lined him up and kicked him right between his loose change and his hankie.

It's code to the AFL, if we add Ough at 4
the message is clear

GTFO AGF

Yes Bully. A lot of faith has been placed in our new head S&C guy.

 

[DuD_Delist]

Our reserves games will be sell outs

Thank god for the new stand

 

[Redford]

How many times did Mick Ablett say "surely not" with that F1 of Norfs.

Ah. Magnificent.

 

[TigerMasochist]

Yes they're finally giving us Pick 2

Next years 2 to go with our 1. Can't argue with that, even if we had to throw in our F 2nd as a sweetener, after academies it'll probably be mid 20's anyway so no harm done.

Clarko has convinced them they are in the window

 

[DuD_Delist]

Faull & Armstrong.
I guess Cadman said no.
