J Taylor on King: "Gets around the ground & hunts the ball, & helps his teammates. Got scope to become a pretty good ruck in time #AFLDraft

From up your way Dazzle? Any inside info?

Damn, Blake Hardwick just got picked up. Sam Menagola is my tip.

Didn't see that coming. Looks like a Pedersen type.

Hulett

The list profile is looking a lot healthier now. We definitely needed some young talls.

3 talls and 1 mid this draft. The coaches must be very pleased with how the midfield stocks are looking

Only one midfielder so far?

We're stockpiling forwards. Guess we're not expecting Dawes and Pedobear to stick around for long.

Jason Taylor on Liam Hulett: He’s a 194cm key position player. Liam primarily played as a forward, but spent some time in defence.”#AFLDraft

Prestia?

Selection we had to make. Can play in the ruck and up forward. Played basketball as a junior, runs the ground well and is a good mark of the footy.

another project just what we need What year will he play his first game

We have a lot of project talls.

We are in need of better mids but we also needed more talls. Gawn is the only player who we can trust to ruck. We know how spencer is Dunn isn't too good and pedo is the same. We need genuine rucks

Well, that's our draft done. Interesting selections, but next year is supposed to be a good draft for mids, so I guess now was the time for it. I would suspect that Oliver is the only one we'll see in the seniors for at least the first half of the season.

Shattered we missed Bonner Balic and Mathieson by a few picks

PLS JUST SAY YOU ARE HAPPY WITH CLAYTON OLLISK

WE PASSED ON BEN CROCKER

See you in 5 years maybe Mitch...

And must rate this Hulett as the best available...

Who?

Any relation to Barry?

I think you are right.

Dawes remains a one trick pony, and that trick doesn't come off too often.

Pedersen is more versatile and IMVHO has more currency of the two.

I suspect that we will see Bugg go through the midfield, Vanders will be back, ANB, Kent, Salem and Stretch will see more time there, Tyson back to his old form and of course the new recruits in Trengove and Petracca. The midfield, already with Jones, Brayshaw, Vince and Viney, is far from the worst in the League, despite 'only' drafting Oliver. Next year we may even add Prestia. I'd relax and trust that the FD has some sort of strategy.

We've bid on Matthew Flynn! Will we get him... ?

I don't know anything about Matthew Flynn, but did our refusal to bid on the GWS academy kids earlier result in us not getting Flynn? If GWS had been forced to use earlier picks on Hopper and Kennedy, would they have been able to afford Flynn? Sometimes you just have to play the game.

I reckon there might have been a handshake deal to not bid on them early to be honest, all part of the bugg trade

betty i think

i was thinking more a half-trick pony, but why quibble
