Laurie has poor skills apparently and needs work. 

His kicking efficiency is elite according to the Fox footy telecast.

    Passed on both Cook and Carroll. Seems like a [censored] up, but just gotta trust the recruiters I guess!

    Laurie and Bowey are two blokes who are described as great users with good footy IQ who never waste a disposal - makes perfect sense to me why we would be interested in both.

    Mentioned it on the Laurie thread, but both of these guys could easily push further up the ground (with Pickett) in the coming years.  Just because they are more forward type players doesn't mean they stay there for the long term.

    Lots to work with here and I like it from the club.

    We could get one at our next pick.

    happy with that, Bowey probably would've been available at 28 but both suit our needs, either could play on a wing as well long term

    Draft Central rated his Disposal as Elite, and one of his strengths was Clean Skills

    Two small forwards! Yes!

    I pretty much won't need to post anything on this forum again.

    Someone needs to get fired for leaking the Holmes pick.

    Unless it was Mahoney and then he needs to be sued.

    Bad clubs leak. Good clubs don’t. That’s pretty much it.

    This shambles of a club can’t keep making unforced errors.

    Collingwood have absolutely cleaned this draft up.

    They have just traded in pick 24 and pick 30.

    I'll be honest, can't say I am that excited with our picks so far.

    Sounds like we’re drafting for needs tonight rather than best available.

    We don’t need 2 small forwards. We do need 2 good kicks. Plenty of other needs if we really wanted to patch holes in the 22

    This stuff comes out every single year.

    A function of drafting so few players with elite kicking skills in tbe last decade.

    I could not be more pleased they have bitten tbe bullet and focused on addressing our greatest need - great kicks.

    • PREGAME: Sydney

      Just a game and percentage outside the Top 8, the Demons return to Melbourne to face the Sydney Swans at the MCG, with a golden opportunity to build on the momentum from toppling the reigning premiers on their own turf. Who comes in, and who makes way?

    • GAMEDAY: Brisbane

      It’s Game Day, and the Demons are back on the road with a massive challenge ahead — facing the reigning premiers, the Brisbane Lions, at their Gabba fortress. The Lions are licking their wounds after a shock draw in Tasmania last week, while Melbourne’s season hangs in the balance. Can the Dees defy the odds and pull off a miracle to keep their razor thin finals hopes alive?

    • NON-MFC: Round 10

      The Sir Doug Nicholls Round kicks off in Darwin with a Top 4 clash between the Suns and the Hawks. On Friday night the Swans will be seeking to rebound from a challenging start to the season, while the Blues have the Top 8 in their sights after their sluggish start. Saturdays matches kick off with a blockbuster between the Collingwood and Kuwarna with the Magpies looking to maintain their strong form and the Crows aiming to make a statement on the road. The Power face a difficult task to revive their season against a resilient Cats side looking to make amends for their narrow loss last week. The Giants aim to reinforce their top-eight status, while the Dockers will be looking to break the travel hoodoo. The sole Saturday game is a critical matchup for both teams, as the Bulldogs strive to cemet their spot in the top six and the Bombers desperately want break into the 8. Sundays start with a bottom 3 clash between the Tigers and Kangaroos with both teams wanting to avoid the being in wooden spoon contention. The Round concludes with the Eagles still searching for their first win of the season, while the Saints look to keep their finals hopes alive with a crucial away victory. Who are you tipping and what are the best results for the Demons?
