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)

    POSTGAME: Rd 13 vs Collingwood

    Once again inaccuracy and inefficiency going inside 50 rears it's ugly head as the Demons suffered their second loss on the trot and their fourth loss in five games as they go down to the Pies by 38 points on Kings Birthday at the MCG.

    BOILED LOLLIES by The Oracle

    In the space of a month Melbourne has gone from chocolates to boiled lollies in terms of its standing as a candidate for the AFL premiership.  The club faces its moment of truth against a badly bruised up Collingwood at the MCG. A win will give it some respite but even then, it won’t be regarded particularly well being against an opponent carrying the burden of an injured playing list. A loss would be a disaster. The Demons have gone from a six/two win/loss ratio and a strong percentag

    CLEAN HANDS by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons headed into town and up Sydney Road to take on the lowly Coburg Lions who have been perennial VFL easy beats and sitting on one win for the season. Last year, Casey beat them in a practice match when resting their AFL listed players. That’s how bad they were. Nobody respected them on Saturday and clearly not the Demons who came to the game with 22 players (ten MFC), but whether they came out to play is another matter because for the most part, their intensity was lacking an

    ALAS SPRINGS by Whispering Jack

    I got the word on Saturday from someone who knows someone inside the Fremantle camp that the Dockers were pumped and supremely confident about getting the W the next day against Melbourne at TIO Traeger Park in the red heart of the country. I was informed that the Dockers were extremely confident for a number of reasons. They had beaten the Demons on their home territory at the MCG at their last two meetings so they didn’t see beating them at Alice Springs as a problem. They belie

    PREGAME: Rd 13 vs Collingwood

    The Demons head back to Melbourne after an embarrassing loss to the Dockers to take on the Magpies at the MCG on Kings Birthday. With a calf injury to Lachie Hunter and Jacob van Rooyen possibly returning from injury who comes in and who goes out?
