Leysy Days said:From the devotees out there, any chance Sam Mayes gets through to us.
Would be ideal for what we need, also like in a player that they have continued to improve through the year & didnt slack off after Champs. Especially in a comp like the SANFL.
Has far more impressive numbers than someone like Ben Kennedy at that level for example.
Really good indication that he can step up.
Stylo said:Would love Mayes, but I don't think there's any chance at all of him getting past Port.
SCOOP said:Yep. Does a lot of things really well. Wonderful user. And will fill out quickly.
It's wide open after pick 3. Anything could happen.
After reading the article about him on the AFL website today; me too!K3 said:Gotta say I am warming to Stringer atm. Recon he could be a great addition to the club.

I never said first pick. If he's still there for our second pick we'd be mad not to, he comes across as the type of kid that will do anything to make it in the big league.bullus_hit said:I take it you skimmed over the part where it describes his persistent limp and awkward running style.

As I haven't read the article I am not 'with it' on the break but it sure doesn't sound good for the lad, which is always really sad.bullus_hit said:Nathan Brown was 'ok' to play as well, but there's no denying it wrecked his career. The fact that Srtinger is limping around doesn't fill me with much confidence, certainly too big a risk at 9.
footballmonk said:Agree that it was worth the hijack - a Literal LOL not only from me but from my wife when I read it out. Maybe Johncock could be an emergency?
Tigertool said:Would anyone else trade pick 9 for Collingwood's 17, 18 and 20?
Leysy Days said:Gus, Scoop & others -
Any reason Sam Colquhoun isn't talked about for pick 9.
Having a look through the Champ matches & the kids almost a Hamish Hartlett clone.
Smashed the carnival - SA' best. AA. 28 touches a match. & has knocked up getting it for Central Districts two's afterwards.
One of the best kicking actions you will ever see. Poetry. Jack & Co would be locking there lips with him running at them.
Is it because he plays mid/back & is possibly a bit like an upgraded Ellis in role or question marks on winning his own ball?
Looks a player to leysy. Big time.
Tell you what the more leysy looks the standard of footy & player available, this year is miles ahead of last when we had guys like Bunting, Haynes, Tomlinson, Sumner etc taken top 10. All big risks to make it, even then. This years top 12-15 look classes above.
Leysy's not scared to pot an early pick if he see's something he queries, but most look good instinctive footballers.
Trading post to get 3 spots higher in the draft sounds silly to me. Especially when we can prob get the same player at 9 as at 6.Stylo said:There's talk that we're trying to trade Post and pick 9 to the Dogs for their pick 6 again.
This time though, we're looking to on trade 6 along with a mature player to GWS for Tyson.
Probably horseradish...
I'd rather we on trade 6 for 12 and 14 if that were to happen
