Re: Last 4 National drafts

I think the young blokes just have to show a willingness to work hard and hit small achievements along the way.

Caminiti and Windy need a consistent run at senior level and need to show they can impact in 1 out of every 3 games imo.

Re: James Barrat

Is his uncle in the media?

If yes... another strategic move by the marketing department.

We've got 2 blonde bombshells, a new logo and we'll get favourable postive coverage on the club by Damien

Plus...his surname is pretty close to Bassat

Your post is making a good point, but your 2013 year is both wrong and also has some glaring omissions

Our early picks in 2013 were pick 3 (Billings) 18 (Dunstan) and 19 (Acres).

Seb Ross was pick 25 in 2011

We shot ourselves in the foot by beating Carlton

Dalrymple and Gubby have been royally screwed by that late goal in the dying seconds to Higgins.

It's out of their control if Richmond, Melbourne and Carlton take our first choice mids

Re: Change in age demographic

Simon Lethlean and Alan Richardson decided to bring in Dean Kent and Dan Hannebery in the 2018 trade period. During Roo's last few years, I don't think the club was focused on setting up the team with great development of young players. That led to a bit of a vacuum in 2018 when Joey and Roo retired...

Moral dilemma for a few: really want SOS to stuff up our draft picks to prove a sterile point, but that would be a disaster for the club. O me, O my. That's rubbish. Why do you think barracking for a club means you have to stop being objective? What makes you think he's good at list management? Peo...

Re: Change in age demographic

Ross Lyon, when appointed, said he wanted to go to the draft.

Re: Jack Carroll

Those rolling their eyes about us picking up a Carlton player should understand that this is Dalrymple's call, not Silvagni's. The kid is 21. He looks well balanced and is quick. Missed most of 2023 through injury. There's enough there to like from what I've seen. Someone mentioned he's an upgrade ...

Re: Jack Carroll

An upgrade or a hail mary? It's an odd decision. He's not good enough to play on the inside and we have enough players who can run and play half back or wing. Getting a bit weird now with SOS targetting another ex Carlton player. The positives I see with the selection is that it costs us zero in te...
