Phantom Draft 2016

[turk-d-tiger]

#9 Gold Coast select
JACK SCRIMSHAW -4/9/98

194cm 80kgs

Not really sure on what role Jack will play for the Gold Coast but i i know is that he is best available at #9 with way too much talent to pass by and at 194cm being a bottom age player the potential for him to grow another 2-3 cm is still a distinct possibility. Currently seen to be a Utility/Midfielder with good kicking and reads the play beautifully

Hoping this selection might become our BONT pick

I think you may have outsmarted yourself there spook my dear friend, Taranto was never on our radar and we rated will brodie & jack bowes as the 2 best inside mids in the draft and toranto would have been an option at our #10 but only if another tall we want was not available. But i suppose you got the player carlton wanted but i cant understand why you wouldnt have bid on Will Setterfield ??



#8 Gold caste place a bid on Will Setterfield

I considered bidding on Setterfield but asked myself if I would be happy with him if it went unmatched. Although I rate him highly, I rate Taranto higher.

Don't Sydney have pick 9??

They did, but GWS matching for Setterfield pushes it back one. GWS now no longer has pick 15 and one of their later picks gets shuffled back as well. Bullus will be all over it, I'm sure.

Cool. Thanks for the clarification spooker. It used to be so simple.. :-[

Thats fair enough i suppose , But given the 2 players i would have taken Setterfield over Toranto for Carlton i think

Reason i asked that question is were you trying to do what SOS would have done and not bid on any GWS players due to not putting them off side as they may not allow you to take out their garbage next year :cutelaugh

They have to make sure that Visy will continue to support them somehow!!

If I were Silvagni and didn't have any dodgy dealings going on with GWS (yeah, right), I would bid on Setterfield confident GWS would match. However, I wasn't sure Sammy would, and I wanted Taranto. As I said, I rate him higher.

 

[turk-d-tiger]

Thats Fair enough, Im probably Bias as i think that Setterfield has so much more upside and would have been a better fit for Carlton but Toranto is a good prospect but a slight reach - Then again i would have said the same about Cripps as well

 

[spook]

He's not a reach. He outperformed Setterfield at every level this year.

 

[turk-d-tiger]

He's not a reach.

Poor Kid !! Toranto has no chance of making it now


Dreaded #6 Curse

:hihi

It's all projecting about what these kids might become. I really like Setterfield and I would have him ahead of Brodie, for example. But Taranto is just a bit special, IMO.

No, but looking at your post history for something to back up your condescension I see you are the guy who watched a minute of Dave Gourdis footage and declared him better than Jay Schulz.

A little knowledge is a dangerous thing.

LOL yes i did , He was a great Athlete that had the potential to become anything but as you would be aware specially with our recent issue's and dealings with players with depression and mental issue's had the better of him and never found the form his physical attributes would have allowed him.

 

[turk-d-tiger]

Pick 15 moves up to pick 8, pick 37 moves down to pick 47.

would be interested to know what the formula is or how its calculated Bullus

#8 = 1485 points
#15 = 1200 points

difference is 285 points

#37 = 732 points
#47 = 616 points

Difference is 116 points

Pick 8 1551 points
Pick 15 1112 points

Difference 439 points

Pick 37 483 points

Pick 8 - 1551
Pick 15 - 1112

But clubs get a 20% discount when matching, so GWS needs 1240.8 points to match at pick 8. They use pick 15, but I'm not sure how they work out where the extra 128 points come from. Their next pick is 37, which is worth 483. If they subtract the 128 from that pick, that makes it 355 and means it slides from 37 to 44 (picks 38-44 move up one).

I think.
