Re: Armo linked to Tigers
Most recent #11 draft picks...Dom Sheed, Troy Menzel, Toby Greene, Thomas Lynch, Jordan Gysberts, Steele Sidebottom, Patrick Vaszpremi, Andrejs Everitt, Shaun Higgins, Adam Thompson, Beau Waters, Jason Winderlich, Richard Cole...
Still think Armitage is worth keeping.

Well youd take Menzel, Sidebottom & Greene pretty darn quick. Too early to call on Sheed.

I'm not in favour of us trading Armo, unless they find some way to come out way in front on the deal, but what pick we used to draft him with is really only our problem......

Do you think Melbourne will get pick one for Jack Watts?

Re: Armo linked to Tigers
Armo is realistically a 20-30 pick, IMO, so if Richmond were to offer pick 11 we'd be mad not to take it.
Personally I'd hate to lose the last bit of midfield muscle we have, and I can't see Richmond offering pick 11 anyway.

He's absolutely bolting, incredible best on ground with a highlight reel and tested like a superstar. He will be firming into around 10 to 20 now you would think. Could get in even higher. He was injured all year so hasn't had the slow rise up the ranks like some others like Petracca.

Mav's brother Lachie would also be handy at this pick...Con Gorozidis wrote:I would not mind Nackers Cockatoo at 11.

If he goes up the ladder with testing does that mean Petracca goes down the ladder? Forget the friggin highlight reel unless they attach a lowlight reel.

Re: Armo linked to Tigers
No because he has tested well too. Clubs can definitely make decisions based on their test results. Mc Kenzie will have done himself no harm with his testing. If you have two similar players and one has a huge vertical jump, elite speed and agility and the one you pick becomes more obvious. It can swap the order of the log jam between about pick 10 and 20 that there are a lot of very even players in.plugger66 wrote:gringo wrote:plugger66 wrote:Con Gorozidis wrote:I would not mind Nackers Cockatoo at 11.

Agreed if players are thought to level. Not sure Petracca has tested well, well I suppose you need to explain what well is. He couldn't get any top 10's in speed. His beep test was 14.6 I think. Ok. Not elite.

Re: Armo linked to Tigers
I'm no expert plugger. But it seems young Nackers is rising due to the testing. So I said 20 yesterday - but since then he has pulled off some big results.gringo wrote:plugger66 wrote:Con Gorozidis wrote:I would not mind Nackers Cockatoo at 11.

If you watch the Elshaugh interview from yesterday - he sees some players who pull off stunning results will move up the rankings due to test results (he used Brad Hill as an example). Also more likely to happen with a bloke like Nackers who was injured and also doesnt plaly in TAC cup so recruiters havent seen much of him in the flesh.
But there you go again trying so hard to score a cheap point.

I really think you need to get this complex treated. And in a hurry. Please.

Re: Armo linked to Tigers
Armo is only 25 so if hes retired by the time we re playing finals we re in big trouble. Unless someone offers us way overs he is exactly the player we need for the next few years. Not a lot of point to this trade.

Re: Armo linked to Tigers
Richmond wont offer pick 12...no way, they have just signed Miles who is also an inside mid, younger and ready to go.
