Re: Patrick McCartin
I saw a bit of the last champs game. Did some great things that make you think his gonna be a gun. I like the look of him. Does look a bit chubby atm but once he gets into an afl system that's only gonna improve him. I havent seen any paracca but would be happy with him too. Anyone have any links to any highlights of the boys? About the only thing to look forward too atm

Re: Patrick McCartin
[quote="Old Mate"][quote="borderbarry"]Would it pay the Saints to ignore McCartin, Wright.
I personally dont see us ignoring McCartin if we end up with pick 1 as it looks we will. I certainly wouldn't be against picking 2 x key forwards in this draft. We could have our next Roo/Kosi or Buddy/Roughy combo for the next decade plus. It will just depend on how we and other clubs rate the talls. McCartin clear pick 1 so that's a no brainer.
Think the whispers i have heard around club are McCartin would have to test poorly not to be no 1 pick.
Old Mate.
Will depend on how trade period goes too personally would like Petracca but McCartin is a very impressive kid.

What do you mean. Plugger would have broken all the records.Con Gorozidis wrote:There are no certain or clear stand outs.Dave McNamara wrote:I realise that everything is hypothetical till a bloke is well into his career, but aren't there meant to be better key forwards coming up in the 2015 draft??? Anyone able to shed some light on that?
Also, the GWoganS will be struggling to hang onto all their big key forwards come 2015's draft.
I really want Petracca (though am open to Con being able to convince me that he's already peaked) and would love to snare the wild child Lamby (perfect replacement to spark things up on Mad Monday once CJ is gone).
burton from sa looks good as does Dodge from tassie but still a long way off.
My theory is see how they test at draft camp but reality is plugger may not have tested awesome.
Still half a season to play. Lets see how they play out the season I guess.

Re: Patrick McCartin
I think we should just tell the AFL that we need to build a new team like Gold Coast and GWS and then take picks 1, 2, 3, 5, 7, 9, 11, 13, 15.damienc wrote:He's exactly what we need. A big bodied, aggressive KPP. A natural tall forward who is not afraid to push opponents out of the way. If we got him and Petracca then we will have done well. One and two in the draft I reckon. They will both be on the club's list. We might have to settle for just McCartin which would be a shame.
And then take the 12 best kids aged 17.67+ at this years draft, ahead of the next draft.
I am sure Andrew Demetriou would agree that is what is needed to build new team.

Re: Patrick McCartin
Given the first pick is ours for the taking maybe we should ask the AFL if we can pick him next week.

Re: Patrick McCartin
He looks impressive but in AFL he looks a tall goal kicking mid type (which would be great) but I do wonder given our so called tall forward back up options to Riewoldt aren't exactly starring if we just need the best genuine tall forward??

Re: Patrick McCartin
Don't worry, if reports are true, we've signed on Tom Lee for 2 years. And we have Siposs and Stanley. Do we need anything more than that lol?Teflon wrote:He looks impressive but in AFL he looks a tall goal kicking mid type (which would be great) but I do wonder given our so called tall forward back up options to Riewoldt aren't exactly starring if we just need the best genuine tall forward??

Re: Patrick McCartin
Surely at the start of the season they would have taken Petracca with hopeful development of Stanely, lee and siposs and glimpses from White
Unfortunately Stanley continues to tease ( although has been better) Siposs and Lee major disappointments ,especially Lee ( we gave up pick 12 for him)
Therefore as the last month has shown we need McCartin

Re: Patrick McCartin
NO. Pick this bgrade player and we will be again the laughing stock of the comp. So many GREAT midfielders this year ... not the year for KPPs so why get them? We can trade later or get KPPs when they are awesome in a draft!
