Scully is a much better runner than Rich, although Rich is far more physically developed. If Scully adapts to playing with men then there is no reason why he shouldn't be a better player than Rich.

apparently all 4 games are being shown on Fox Sports! if you dont have fox i also heard SEN mention that they will be broadcasting all games live!

i plan to watch them all and will give a write up! i just got a new job and told them i had 'things on' Wednesday and cant start until Thursday

scully and panos for me, panos has been brilliant during this carnival and a big game on wednesday and he will go past butcher as best KPF,.

Hopefully you retain your job.

yeah that is very true.. 9 till 6 is a lot of footy for any person!

Hopefully you retain your job.

haha i hope so too!!

Picks 1 and 2 should be Tom Scully and Jack Trengove.

Best Key Forward at pick 18-20.

We should try and trade for another top 20 pick, but this is unlikely to happen.

I went and watchED S.A vs NSW last week and Panos was ultra impressive up forward for S.A.

193 cm, great contested mark and his set shots were all first class. He was however playing against poor opposition.

Check him out on Wednesday.

It seems like pick 1 will be a mid. Is Scully still the lock as #1 pick for most?

If pick 2 was a choice between an equally-ranked KPF and mid we should take the KPF (assuming we've already taken the standout mid).

However, I'm not sure there'll be a KPF ranked in the top two unless Butcher happens to turn it on in a couple of days.

I think we need two class mids not one to help solve our midfield issues.

Agreed. I also love the sound of Jack Viney. If we got him in 2010 we'd have our elite midfield. Prodiving we pick two elite midfielders with picks 1 & 2 this year.

Isn't Jack Viney about 14?

Pardon me. 2011 draft. And no, he's at least 16.

Jack Viney wont be qualified for his drivers licence then.

I would go for Butcher at 2 and back it in that we get a good mid in the 2nd round or preseason.

Also some of our good picks over the last 2 years may turn out to be guns.

People are under-estimating Butcher here. He hasn't had a pre-season due to several injuries. He is one of the highest credentialed juniors of the draft. He is the best contested mark of the draft and is still rated a top 2 pick. Don't read too much into the championships for Butcher.

my two cents is for the two best midfielders. i think we can back in watts, bate, jurrah and co to actually take marks in the forwardline if they have a gun midfield kicking them the ball!

I've got a feeling that Butcher could slip to Richmond. I think Morabito & Lucas will be close to top 4 selections.

A bit of a hypothetical here :

What would be the chances of a young player not liking the look of the teams getting early picks, so has a chat to one of the bigger clubs and agrees to take it easy at carnivals / draft camp to ensure he slips through to them. Far fetched or not ??

They'd have to be as arrogant as hell. I wouldn't want anyone on my list who was like that anyway. Not sure how far fetched it is. It's the sort of thing you'd expect of Carlton or someone like that though.

If they are the type of bloke that lays down on his teammates to serve his own best interests, then you wouldn't want them at your club!

Possible, but Butcher Is too one dimensional. If I were to draft an Key position player with an early pick, it would now be Panos. He is about the same size as Johnathon Brown & moves like him as well.
