Pick 11


Brayshaw Self

Recommended Posts

I think we should go for the best available at pick 11, which would most likely be a midfielder.

I'd love to see Lewis Jetta in our side but by pick 18 some good key forwards may have been taken already

Picks 1 and 2 are undoubtedly being used on Scully and Trengove and it's unlikely thata decent key forward will be available through the PSD so if pick 11 was used on a forward it would be understandable aswell.

Thoughts please?

Assuming 1 and 2 go on Scully and Trengrove I think 11 has to be used on a tall. Whether they go looking for a ruck or a KPP I don't know, but if we're to get a good one it needs to be fairly early. I think the KPF's in this draft are rated a bit higher than the rucks, so probably one of them and a ruck later if there's a good one going.

pick 11 definately should be a tall key position player. Players like Butcher might be still available with also Carlisle, Panos, Talia and Temel in the running for the pick. Whoever we select must be a good set shot at goal, otherwise they are useless, we've already got Miller and Newton who are awful kicks.

Do you see Butcher as possibly still available at pick 11?

I can see him slip to 11 the only worry will be the bombers with pick 10 they may want another KPP now they have lost lucas and lloyd time will tell hey i can't wait and have full faith in our FD they don't seem to have made to many mistakes in recent years (unlike the tigers a few years ago)

GO DEES christmas comes early this year NOVEMBER!!!!

If the rumour I am hearing is true, then Essendon have included their Pick 10 in the deal with Port/Hawthorn/Burgoyne/Williams....

I know it might sound strange, but they reckon here on Adelaide radio that they will confirm just before 7pm (7:30 EDST) that Port will have Picks 8,9,10.... Hawks get SB.... Essendon get Mark Williams.... If Hawthorn are stupid enough to give 9 and 10(via Essendon) to Port then that may throw a spanner in the works come draft day....

If Butcher's there they'll take him, if not people say the club is super keen on Carlisle... I'd be happy with Talia here. Temel and Panos likewise would get me excited.

It HAS to be a KP player though.

Port Adel - picks 8,9,16.

Butcher, Tapscott, Talia, Panos, Carlisle

In that order. We go KPP, unless Tapscott is there, as he is a real talent with a great kick, who may slip. We'll go KPP again at 18, likely on Carlisle, Black, or whoever is around.

Griffiths.

Not keen on Panos.

That he is Freak. Played at CHB and running off the HBF this year, but he did go forward a few times with moderate success. If we drafted him we would try to mould him into a key forward.

You'd be more comfortable with a very injury prone Griffiths???

Yeah, strangely.

Something about Panos doesn't feel right for me.

Too much hype and not enough substance...

But its not like I'm a recruiter & I haven't seen him play live, so my opinion is based on very little.

No different to the majority of posters on this forum...

And you mean injury prone at U/18 level like Joel Selwood, Chris Judd, Tom Swift... shall I keep going?

Talls are different.

Joel Selwood and Judd had a single injury from memory which needed to get fixed. Griffiths has had miltiple injuries in different area's and it seems his body is not handling it atm.

Picks 11 and 18 HAVE to be used on prospective Key Position Forwards.

Carlisle

Talia

Panos

Butcher

Temel

Not necessarily in order.

I don't think they both HAVE to be used on KPF's. Sure, definitely one of them should be used on a KPF, but we've lost Brock - you can never have enough mid's. I'd prefer the club go for what they think is the best available player if that happens to be a KPF so be it. But I wouldn't say that picks 11 & 18 are 'locks' for KPF's.

    DELUGE by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons overcame their inaccuracy and the wet inhospitable conditions to overrun the lowly Northern Bullants at Genis Steel Oval in Cramer Street, Preston on Saturday. It was an eerie feeling entering the ground that in the past hosted many VFA/VFL greats of the past including the legendary Roy Cazaly. The cold and drizzly rain and the sparse crowd were enough to make one want to escape to the nearby Preston Market and hang out there for the afternoon. In the event, the fans

    INSANITY by Whispering Jack

    Somehow, the Melbourne Football Club managed it twice in the course of a week. Coach Simon Goodwin admitted it in his press conference after the loss against the Brisbane Lions in a game where his team held a four goal lead in the third term:   "In reality we went a bit safe. Big occasion, a lot of young players playing. We probably just went into our shell a bit. "There's a bit to unpack in that last quarter … whether we go into our shells a bit late in the game."   Well

    UNBACKABLE by The Oracle

    They’re billing the Brisbane Lions as a sleeping giant — the best team outside the top eight —and based on their form this month they’re a definite contender for September AFL action. Which is not exactly the best of news if you happen to be Melbourne, the visiting team this week up at the Gabba.  Even though they are placed ahead of their opponent on the AFL table, and they managed to stave off defeat in their last round victory over North Melbourne, this week’s visitors to the Sunshi

    WILDCARDS by KC from Casey

    Casey’s season continued to drift into helplessness on Sunday when they lost another home game by a narrow margin, this time six points, in their Round 13 clash with North Melbourne’s VFL combination. The game was in stunning contrast to their last meeting at the same venue when Casey won the VFL Wildcard Match by 101 points. Back then, their standout players were Brodie Grundy and James Jordon who are starring in the AFL with ladder leaders, the Sydney Swans (it turned out to be their last
