Re: emma quale on the draft
If Emma Quayle was in the draft, Chris Pelchin would pick her. Mind you, she'd probably get more games than some of his picks.
There are three characteristics of players we should pick in the draft:
1. The ability to kick both sides
2. The ability to kick both sides
3. The ability to kick both sides
In 2004, we had fourteen players in this category. Now we have three or four.

Thats the whole point you <edited by mods>! We are talking about a top 2 pick in the draft- they dont have to come from the Teal Cup. Are you <edited by mods> Poster warned for abuse.BigMart wrote:Dean Kemp played Teal Cup?
The draft isnt restricted to TAC cup players - newsflash.
And I thought you were going to own up when you were proved wrong?
I'm still waiting on your claim about Sam Fisher for 2012.

Re: emma quale on the draft
If there's an even spread in the top 20, then don't discount the opportunity to trade in say, pick # 2 for picks # 8 & # 17. We'd only need one more to get our 3 picks inside 20.PurpleHayes wrote:A few murmurs that the too 20 in the draft could be pretty even etc..
I'm sure as we near closer, recruiters will firm up their order - this happens most years and phantom drafts are roughly accurate, of course there's always a handful of annomolies too.
I reckon that having pick 1 or 2 simply means we can get the player we absolutely want. Whether it be a midfielder, forward etc..
If we have pick 2, Pelchen and co will have 2 players in mind, the best midfielder and the best KPP. A great position to be in!

Re: emma quale on the draft
IMO need to go for a mid with our early picks
I'd prefer to take on the Syd model of trading for our key position forwards from now on... Unless they are ridiculously clear standouts

You would all overlook O'meara Koladshnij Fyfe Wingard Dunstan Riewoldt Hayes etc etc as they aren't Victorian.
Apparently Wright McCartin Brayshaw and Goddard are the only people in the draft.
They arent in the draft Con. By the way who should we recruit with our number one or two pick. We now it shouldnt be a city boy but we also dont know who you think we should pick. Funny that its seems people who know more than you and me suggest the 4 names you have mentioned are in the top6 or so.

Re: emma quale on the draft
I would like Mc cartin with our first pick or Lamb if we had a pick around 10. Brayshaw is probably the best mid available. Peter Wright has really drifted off in the last month or two and could go somewhere around 4 to 8 now where he was rated as the number 1 pick.

Patrick McCartin, Don't think there is another choice for us to be honest....Unless we have tapped up a Boyd or a Patton and they have agreed to come home.
Would also love Lamb - But not playing him as a KPF, More as a roaming HFF or on ball.

That's a fair point and something Pelchan could do if there was no standout no 1 or 2 . Gold Coast have around pick 12 and 13. Then as you say wed just need to improve our pick no . 21
Approx by throwing in a Stanley or sippos and there is the 3 picks well inside the top 20.

Re: emma quale on the draft
Give Gold Coast Gilbert. Stanley/ Sippa are of little value for their team but Gilbert is an upgrade on a Shaw/Cameron type. Gilbert will not be in our next premiership team but another top 20ish pick may well be.

For the record - I know Tom Lamb's family very well _ grew up with his Dad from 4 years of age - know his mum - daughter of Ian Cooper - not the right fit for St.Kilda - but to a stronger club I hope he kills it!

2 Gee. Falcon Fwds available in NAB Draft
The 2 Falcon Forwards H.Goddard and P. McCartin i'm hearing could go top 10!
If they were both available for St.Kilda's 1st. pick it would be rough picking the 2nd. best as the years passed by, unless they both became huge successes. Pelchin do your homework !
What a conundrum and then add a very highly rated mid !
almost 1/2 a year to go until decision time and who knows we may have lured a big prospect key forward
to Moorabbin from the wealthy northern states!
This is Pelchin's time to shine - fingers crossed.

The boy can play and we can build a defence around him that will have respect.
Re: emma quale on the draft
Yes, a lot of rumours that's he's a bad-egg. Booted out of private school, bully, gets in fights etc. Perhaps we are spreading the rumours hoping he slides like Jack Darling a few years back?

The last time their wasn't a clear #1 pick was 2001.... how did that year turn out?

Yes, I can confirm that young Lamby is a Fascist-Maoist-Thatcherite who loves pulling the wings of flies and Boeing 747s.
I'm heading over to Big Vanilla right now to create an alias to propagate all that. Just need someone to start the Twatterface page 'Lamby is Corey Bernardi'.

However Port have added some good talent including their FF by taking guys with flaws from other clubs to add to their good young drafted talent.
Our new CEO stated the other night that our plan including attacking the free agent market, but not till at least several years down the track.
I think that generally speaking that tall players are riskier bets than smaller players. Particularly ruckman, and so I am against using very low (top 10) picks on ruckman or ruck/forwards.

Re: emma quale on the draft
Agree. Early rucks are prone to fail even where they're clear stand outs (ie. Kreuzer). All the more so when it's an even choice like this year.saintsRrising wrote:The flaw with aping the Sydney model is that they have a salary cap advantage (or at least did have )...without that they would not have Tippet AND Buddy.skeptic wrote:IMO need to go for a mid with our early picks
