Dirts 429 Posted October 25, 2019 Posted October 25, 2019 We have pick 2 in the PSD and I’m interested to see who we could nab. Jack Martin was spoken about but seems that he is not interested. Harley Bennell is a possible but seems to be a risk? Riley Knights, Casbolt, Henderson and Gray also likely Any thoughts? Quote
Lord Travis 10,819 Posted October 25, 2019 Posted October 25, 2019 If it’s not Martin then it seems we’ve wasted an opportunity. We won’t be near the top of the drafts again for sometime so need to make it count. Quote

Levi has already signed on at Carlton. I assume most of the other names if they picked up by another club will be a delisted free agent. I assume the Pre season draft won't be used apart from Carlton with Jack Martin considering that it's the same day as the draft now Quote
RalphiusMaximus 6,112 Posted October 25, 2019 Posted October 25, 2019 As far as I can see, there's only one serious talent in the PSD. Either we go for Martin or we sit it out. Quote

I'd rather live with the same belief as Lord Travis. Life is too short. Quote

That's all good - but the reality is MFC has finished better than 10th twice in the last 10 years and played finals once - hardly inspiring stuff that fills you with confidence Like you I live in hope ever year but to say we won't be close to the top of the drafts for sometime is a stretch based on history and the past season performance wouldn't you say 1 Quote
Dee tention 619 Posted October 25, 2019 Posted October 25, 2019 Sorry if I’m mentioning it in the wrong thread. But I think we should take Sam Murray. Delisted free agent I think! Quote

Do you think our recruiters plan for failure? Quote
JakovichScissorKick 771 Posted October 25, 2019 Posted October 25, 2019 A gem from the state league or outback. We need a Jakovich or Jurrah. Quote

Those players - apart from Martin - will be delisted free agents available to sign without the draft. When it comes to the PSD we will have 3 options: 1. Martin 2. Pass 3. Catch wind of Gold Coast (unlikely due to being able to prelist academy pick ups) with pick 1 in the rookie draft or any other team with a subsequent pick being interested in players we want to rookie draft, forcing us to reassess our plans and add them to our main list.

We won’t be near the top of the drafts again for sometime so need to make it count. We must pick Martin if he's not delisted & declared a free agent & nominates Carlton. The Suns aren't going 2 do Carlton any favours so if he goes in National Draft they will need to use pick 9 or the run risk that someone else picks him up. Or he nominates PSD in which case Suns redraft him or WE do b4 Carlton at pick 3. Stuff Martin he must go to whoever drafts him so I'm hoping we grow a pair & pick him.
