Two KPP who won't cost the world

Recommended Posts

OK i have two players who will not cost anything and can be late draft picks or even PSD

1) Toddy Grima, Was cut by Geelong because of salary cap but was in their vfl premireship side and has a lot of potential. Very good player for KP and is playing very very well in the SANFL. Both his brothers on afl lists atm and he deserves to be given another chance because he will be a very good player. Also a very humble guy and a great bloke as i played at North Launceston with him a few years back.

2) Andrew Lee, recently cut by Essendon due to injuries but i know for a fact that they had very high hopes for him. His body will finally be right for this pre season and I think he is worth the punt. He has a great size and is very mobile and will be a good player either forward or back. In my opinion these two are very much worth using picks on.

Considering at the start of the year I did say that Colin Garland will have a blinder of a year and I had people disagreeing but it turned out I was correct in saying so. Also knowing Todd i know that he will be a very good acquisition as he also can play forward or back.

So they are my two KPP's that I think we should go for with late picks.

How about Podsy and that bloke who played CHF for the SANFL in the game versus the Vics.

Surprised neither of those 2 were given more of a crack at AFL (Podsy and the Pies and the other bloke at the Kangas).

Reckon Leigh Brown could be culled by the Roos at years end and when he's up and going is a very handy player, unfortunately I think he's just about done his dash on the big stage

I thought Grima was a promising prospect. Reminded me so much of Brian Lake (Harris).

Last year I would of been happy to get him but if we do this year I wouldnt be dissapointed at all. If we were to take him in the PSD it would be a risk that would pay off in a big way or fail.

It would be worth it. He is only 22 has size and talent and can kick bags and is proven at afl and vfl level

he made vfl team of the year last year. Worth the risk instead of some 18 year old who might be a dud

sorry i meant sanfl and vfl . He was delisted because geelong had nathan ablett, tom lonergan, tom hawkins, cameron mooney and all those forwards so no room in the salary cap and look what happened to geelong. They delist players and the vfl team goes from premiers to not making finals

................

I like the concept of drafting players who are well performed at state level, with low draft picks. Jason Porplyzia and Aaron Edwards are 2 players that come to mind. Both were delisted from AFL clubs, then redrafted at the age of around 22.

Recruiters tend to use low draft picks for under 18 players, with so called "upside". Most of them turn out to be lemons.

As far as a KPP go that may be available and still young I'd like to see Melbourne look at S. O'hailpin from Carlton. Although he makes some mistakes no one can deny that there isn't any talent there and with Carlton playing Fevola/Fisher/Waite/Bower/Jamison and Thornton, O'hailpin has dropped off their radar some what. He can play forward back or in the ruck and could develop into a great FF?

Another player that (who isn't KPP) but is a classy midfielder and struggled to get a game the last two years is Kane Tenace from Geelong. He has pace and uses the ball well and could be that classy midfielder that Melbourne is looking for? Still young also!

I'll pass on both.

O'hailpin - Great FF? Never

Tenace - uses the ball well and could be that classy midfielder that Melbourne is looking for? Never

Podsy has been a fantastic player at VFL level for Werribee. They will go close this season in the finals.

Not much to like there..

Cockshell, Murphy, even Schulz (cough) better options than those..

There are reasons that a player gets booted from the list of two decent clubs (Brisbane and Port)..... Not worth a pinch of shi*t.... Ask Mr Mackie from South Park why....

    BOILED LOLLIES by The Oracle

    In the space of a month Melbourne has gone from chocolates to boiled lollies in terms of its standing as a candidate for the AFL premiership.  The club faces its moment of truth against a badly bruised up Collingwood at the MCG. A win will give it some respite but even then, it won’t be regarded particularly well being against an opponent carrying the burden of an injured playing list. A loss would be a disaster. The Demons have gone from a six/two win/loss ratio and a strong percentag

    CLEAN HANDS by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons headed into town and up Sydney Road to take on the lowly Coburg Lions who have been perennial VFL easy beats and sitting on one win for the season. Last year, Casey beat them in a practice match when resting their AFL listed players. That’s how bad they were. Nobody respected them on Saturday and clearly not the Demons who came to the game with 22 players (ten MFC), but whether they came out to play is another matter because for the most part, their intensity was lacking an

    ALAS SPRINGS by Whispering Jack

    I got the word on Saturday from someone who knows someone inside the Fremantle camp that the Dockers were pumped and supremely confident about getting the W the next day against Melbourne at TIO Traeger Park in the red heart of the country. I was informed that the Dockers were extremely confident for a number of reasons. They had beaten the Demons on their home territory at the MCG at their last two meetings so they didn’t see beating them at Alice Springs as a problem. They belie

    TROUBLE by The Oracle

    Situated roughly in Australia's geographic centre, Alice Springs has for many years been a troubled town suffering from intermittent crime waves, particularly among its younger residents. There was a time a little while ago when things were so bad that some even doubted the annual AFL game in the town would proceed.  Now, the hope is that this Sunday’s Melbourne vs Fremantle encounter will bring joy to the residents of the town and that through the sport and the example of the participants,
