Which delisted player would you pick up before ND/PSD

The ink hasn't even dried on Gram's termination letter yet. Anyone who thinks there is any possibility whatsoever of him playing in the AFL next year, has no idea how dim a view AFL clubs take on players who have been sacked for behavioural problems. Especially when they're in their late 20s and not in the top class of player. His career is over.

Thats a good point but fev was the biggest tard of the lot, and he got a couple of chances.

Gram will certainly be frowned upon, but i think he still has got some good footy ahead of him.

particularly if he gets his [censored] together.

No to speculate too much but he was dropped I think Rd 22 or 23 last year because he breached his restraining order or AVO with this girl and St Kilda were notified and thus suspended him. Been suspended since.

Now the second breach, he's not just looking at no AFL club he could be a serious chance of a conviction if not jail time.

I see gram as an older, more experienced Farewn Ray. Both provide run off HB, we loose nothing to get him

I've heard that Jacobs will put down north as preferred club.

Gram or Josh toy both good kicks and will add to our list.

Weedon could be a look.

Can you explain to me how Jacobs nominating North means that we can't pick him if we have a pick before them?

It doesn't, but at the same time he is no standout, and there are players ahead of him in the draft and on the trade pile, so why bother picking someone who doesn't want to be at the club?

Sam Lonergan for sure. A hard nut ball winner. Cheap. A mate whos an essendon supporter cannot believe it.

I think his cousin Jess Lonergan will be snapped up early in the draft. Wont effect us as we wont have any picks.

This poll needs more Callum Papertalk.

Don't worry about the listed players. I'd be re-drafting Jai Sheahan kids of his size, ability, & attitude don't grow on trees! Don't let that one go!

Cruize Garlett (NM) 23, 32 Pacy midfielder with neat skills who is handy around goals. Too many similar types at North; could thrive if given a starting role.

Sounds like a good fit for the MFC to be honest.

Only downside is we have a habit of always taking the sh#t brother.

[Lil_red_fire_engine 11,244]

I would look at Garlett and Schneider (highly rated by some Hawks fans I trust).

Lonergan is to Essendon what Petterd was to MFC. People remember the 5 good games he played not the 45 mediocre ones.

[Demon_Tingles 211]

sam lonergan is a close mate of mine I went to school with him in tassie. He is the most dedicated person I have ever met and he will provide toughness at the contest and never shirk a contested ball situation. Someone who works his butt off and can kick goals when he goes forward. For mine he is a perfect pick up and thats not because I am biased but I believe he can offer us a lot.

We don't know that he doesn't want to be at the club. All we know is that he has expressed a preference for North Melbourne in much the same way as Mitch Clark initially expressed a preference for Fremantle a little over a year ago. If he's available under our draft system, we have every right to go after him if we're interested.

[jabberwocky 2,301]

Neeld would have a good look at Lonergan you would think.

[Schneider 220]

Tom Schneider..... But I'm biased

As soon as I said that I was waiting for that comment. I agree if we want him we would have no qualms picking him up, I just don't think that he is anything special, having said that I've only seen little footage, and now I've said it what's the bet he turns out to thrive under a new location

[Whispering_Jack 30,747]

Seems that these days you rarely get more than one chance.

A large number of players delisted this year must now face the fact that their AFL careers are over.

Sheahan wont be re-drafted by the Dees, its over. Got that on good authority.

I thought he was worth another year,he had more upside than Cook.

Do you know why he was delisted Deevoted? As others have said he seemed to have a number a good attributes
