Pick 4


Pates

Recommended Posts

there could be a great demand for pick 4 from a club who is trying to secure the judd trade... carlton, collingwood and essendon will all be looking for another top selection if judd wants to go to their club... one that comes to mind is Carlton trading Fevola for pick 4... carlton supporters may say that fev is worth more than pick 4, probably true, but if they need it to secure Judd, then it still could happen...

We could always ask a collingwood for a player/s that Bailey feels that we need and swap 1st round picks with them?

I would take pendelbury of the pies in a heart beat. if judd says the pies thats what we should offer them.

pendlebury is so overrated

Soft as butter

How he finished ahead of Jones in the Rising Star is beyond me

u idiot.

just looks at Pendlebury's stats. He has huge impact on games has oustanding skills which are damaging, can kick goals and is ultra athletic.

pendlebury>Jones and i am as biased a demons supporter as there is.

you know the thing with cloke, is that he seems to do a lot of things right but he cant kick. he really cant. i havnt watched him close enough to see if its because his kicking action is deficient, or if its in the head or what. if it was something the recruiters and footy dept. thought was fixable then yes, in a heartbeat, but if he's gonna be just another player who cant kick goals but should be, well then...

he is young and can mark however, and this type of player is not too be sneezed at, so ignore that trade at your own peril.

thinking some more, if we could secure cloke for pick 4 so collingwood could judd i would take it, and i would trade robbo to the bullies for their first rounder, maybe throw something else in if we needed too...

robbo would become redundant, cloke would be the other forward, (with neitz and newton next year). and the 1st round pick would then be worth more...

so judd is 24..which means he could be playing good footy for another 6 seasons. Are we even in the premiership window within 6 years? I know our pick 4 would most likely still be around...not judd though.

We haven't rebuilt as a club since the concept of 'rebuilding' became common place. We are similar to the Bulldogs in our drafting consistency and ladder positions.

Geelong didn't have a premiership window until Steven Johnson got his head right and the whole team subsequently clicked. It can happen to us in the next few years. TJ = SJ. Our defence is the question of course, need to have Frawley and Rivers become very good defenders first.

Obviously if we're to get Judd, pick 4 would probably be going to WC. But is he the only player we'd consider trading the pick for, or should we be shopping it around to see if anyone is interested, and what should we be trying to get for it?

good call mate. dont forget that brock was something like pick no. 5 i think and judd was a no. 3 pick, so pick 4 is something in between--the skills of judd and the toughness and leadership of brock.....i hope

btw, does anyone remember, was johnstone a no. 1 pick?

Yep, TJ was number 1 in '97.

And despite opinion was definately the right choice. Was a teenage prodigy and we all know is a superstar. The thing that excites me about the Judd thing is that Johno will finally not get number 1 tagger. His issue was never talent, it was shaking a tag, but without the best on him everyweek. See him emerge and be compared like a Kerr (a is he as good as the best comparison)

    GALLANT by KC from Casey

    The world “gallant” is not one that is readily acceptable to losing teams in our game of football so when it was used in the context of the Casey Demons’ loss to Sandringham in yesterday’s match at Casey Fields, it left a bitter taste in the mouth.  The Demons went into the game against the St Kilda affiliated Zebras with the advantage of playing on their home turf (not that this has been a major asset in 2024) and with very little else going in their favour. The Saints have close to a full

    MEANWHILE by Whispering Jack

    … meanwhile, at about the same time that Narrm was putting its feet on the accelerator to obliterate the long-suffering Euro-Yroke combination, I heard someone mention in passing that Kuwarna was leading Waalitj Marawar by a whopping 46 to 1 halfway through the second quarter of their game over in Adelaide. “What is football coming to?” I asked myself.  In front of my eyes, the Demons were smashing it through the midfield, forcing turnovers and getting the footy to their forwards who w

    HEAVEN OR HELL by The Oracle

    Clashes between Melbourne and St Kilda are often described as battles between the forces of heaven and hell. However, based on recent performances, it’s hard to get excited about the forthcoming match between these two sides. It would be fair to say that, at the moment, both of these teams are in the doldrums. The Demons have become the competition’s slow starters while the Saints are not only slow to begin, they’re not doing much of a job finishing off their games either. About the only th
