We should tank/play the kids and get LIKOSIOUS
No one is talking about how Richmond were a laughing stock for 35 years. Worst club on a sporting field for 35 years.
No one cares.

Re: We should tank/play the kids and get LIKOSIOUS
One minute people are saying don't use a high draft pick on a tall, then when one comes along, that dominates in a comp that is kind to talls, everyone then says
get him at any cost. When the wonderkind has to play at AFL level, with multiple defenders impeding his every move, something that never happened to him
in junior ranks and he struggles, the same people want the recruiters sacked. It's like a merry go round.

The Saints are under review, will it make any difference to the underachievers ?

Re: We should tank/play the kids and get LIKOSIOUS
If you think Richmond were the worst club on the field for 35 years, you weren’t watching much footy over that time. They also didn’t really tank all that much, just made the right decisions with some key positions at the right time and showed patience with their talent, which is the opposite of what you are suggesting.SMS wrote: ↑Fri 29 Jun 2018 11:36pm No one is talking about how Richmond were a laughing stock for 35 years.

His opponents have the advantage of height on him.
He can not overcome this because he has no leap and he is too slow on a lead to gap his opponent.
But there is no way anyone would give us a first round pick 13 for him we would be lucky to get a third round pick 49.
Most clubs would simply say "list clogger" you will have to throw in a draft pick to get us to take him.

Re: We should tank/play the kids and get LIKOSIOUS
Preface to comments: I watched the SA vs Allies match on TV yesterday - it is the first time I have seen Lukosious play.
Good in the first quarter, disappeared in the second when the Allies made a run. Got a few kicks at the start of the third and then when quiet again.
Left with the disturbing impression that he reminded me of Jack Watts. Was laid back at times with his passing to teammates.
Maybe others have seen more of his work that justifies the tyre pumping that was going on yesterday from the commentators.

Re: We should tank/play the kids and get LIKOSIOUS
I love what McCartin is doing lately. Since the helmet he seems to be free. He has great running patterns, competes like a beast and he has massive class when confident/back against wall. Emotional player. Needs t9 become consistent and maybe he will.
2019 will probably be his real breakout year after some.verysuccessful back ended games in 2018.
I don't want McCartin gone it's just IF we do finish last we HAVE to pick this Lukosious kid. He has been touted by everyone in the know as he greatest picK EVER.
McCartin is definitely worth pick 13. AFL people know this. Look at his highlights and his last month. Key forward with skill and brain easily worth pick 13.
All I'm saying is Lukosious and Cerra vs McCartin and Walsh
Which do you want?

Re: We should tank/play the kids and get LIKOSIOUS
This topic is silly
We don't have to tank as we are no effing good .
Simple as that .
This will be shown tomorrow as we get shat on by melbourne.
Whatever happens with draft picks I just hope we get a great player and not another plodder like 3/4 of our team.

Re: We should tank/play the kids and get LIKOSIOUS
The bargaining power that a pick 1 opens up this year in a strong draft is important
As others have said you can’t be relegated down due to preference picks etc and can trade up

Re: We should tank/play the kids and get LIKOSIOUS
Pick 1 is no different to other picks. If a Brisbane academy player is the best, they can still bid for him at a discount if they have the points even if their first pick is 2 or 3.

Re: We should tank/play the kids and get LIKOSIOUS
you are just clueless. McCartin leads up plenty and in a good side he would be hit on those leads, we constantly miss him on the lead or ignore him and kick to the contest 20 metres out from goal. But you are just always looking at ways to denigrate the kid. AND I so wish you could have an opportunity to call him pudding to his face, I'd love to watch him pummel the living suitcase out of a piss weak keyboard coward such as yourselface wrote: ↑Sat 30 Jun 2018 2:08amPudding is not a TALL tall, he is a SHORT tall.Wayne42 wrote: ↑Fri 29 Jun 2018 11:50pm One minute people are saying don't use a high draft pick on a tall, then when one comes along, that dominates in a comp that is kind to talls, everyone then says

Anyhoo , if you land pick 1 no one chooses before you, your trade up options are wide open in a very strong draft
It’s an important position to hold at draft time and suggestions that’s not the case are rubbish
