Pre-Season Draft Pick 3


Diablo

Recommended Posts

Posted

Now that John Meesen has been acquired for pick 37, we will definitely have our pick 3 in the Pre-Season Draft available to use on another player.

Who would everyone like to see us pick up? Know of any uncontracted players who might do the PSD shuffle? Any up and coming 2nd tier leaguers (VFL, WAFL, SANFL) who may be worth a punt? Post your thoughts here.

Would we have to take Valenti in the PSD if we want him?

I think I have heard people suggest he could be rookie drafted, no? If we can get him as a rookie I would rather do that first, but seeing him in Sandy's best most weeks would probably be enough for me to see the man taken in the PSD.

Has a deal been struck with Damon White yet? The other name mentioned (whose contract status I'm unsure of) is Ben McKinley from West Coast.

Brennan?

obviously if we were in the race for judd we have the $$$$

if he is available at pik three of pre season draft.. could we somehow have a chin wag with him and get him on board?

he showed something this yr

Good shout Goose. I read somewhere that Essendon might be trying to get him in a trade or the PSD. We would be mad not to try and steal in before them and snatch him up. I think Essendon were offering $300k per season though... Would we pay that much for an erratic forward?

Essendon would be rather miffed, although they and Mal Michael did very much shaft Brisbane last year. If they tried essentially the same trick again I'm sure Brisbane at least would enjoy them getting a backhander.

Both Damon White and McKinley are contracted players.

As for Brennan, he didn't show up for the Lions B&F, and can't be contacted. Sounds like Sean Charles reincarnated. Don't touch him.........

A massively engorged 'NO' to Jared Brennan. If we're getting rid of TJ for off-field reasons, why would we pick up an absolute clown who has played fewer than five good career games and makes Johnstone look like Mother Teresa?

Engorged... well in that case we better forget him. I know he's a loose cannon, but surely he's young enough that if somebody gets into his head he could be turned around. I suppose you could argue that if Leigh Matthews can't, then who can. Huh.

i think our best bet is to pick up a player like Moran from tha kangas...he is a proming young ruckman and would be a steal in the psd.

also known that we are interested in him.

then we can delist jamar, and have White, Meeson, PJ and Moran as our 4 ruckman. with white close to retirement and PJ showing he is a more than capable backup ruckman, that leave us with 2 highly rated and talented developing ruckman to take over White eventually.

remember people, that if we dont pick up guyz like Meeson and Moran we're gonna have to waste plenty of draft picks trying to find White's replacement. better off finding his replacemnet thru the psd

Jamar won't be delisted. He just signed a 2 year deal.

it was speculated he was offered a contract...clearly MFC would wait to see what happens during trade week before finalizing any contract.

hasnt confirmed signed yet

Agreed :P

might it not make sense to see who ACTUALLY IS in the psd ?? :)

my thoughts exactly, id love to get bolton from sydney in the PSD but if he did go there tigers and blues would get him first, we have pick 3 so we will get the 3rd best player available, both tigers and blues have room in their salary cap too.

Posted

I mean we dont have to use it... but you just never know who might end up there.. ought to have a better idea at 2.01 pm (F) :)

Posted

Just mentioned on Channel 10 news that Carlton are trying to entice Brisbanes defender Josh Drummond into the PSD by offering him a 3 year, $1,000,000 contract

Where are they getting this money from?

ANyways, we should be able to get a pretty good player at number 3 considering everyone who is out of contract

well if we were loading up for Judd, i suppose we have some space in ours too.

Two names for PSD

TODD GRIMA - Get around him. Being one of his good mates i say pick the boy up. He was well in the mix for the VFL team of the year and he will add height and also enthusiasm to the team. Mark my words people he will be a star. Bails you have to go after him. Well after talking to Todd apparently we are after him but GO HARDER BAILS. What do you guys think.

The other is Jude Bolton. Come on why wouldnt we want him.

2008 - The year of the Demon. ;)

Tommy Sparrow was here last week in civvies and wearing sunnies. He didn’t train. Today he’s training but he’s wearing goggles so he’s likely got an eye injury.

    THAT WAS THE YEAR THAT WAS: 2024

    Whichever way you look at it, the Melbourne Football Club’s 2024 season can only be characterized as the year of its fall from grace. Whispering Jack looks back at the season from hell that was. After its 2021 benchmark premiership triumph, the men’s team still managed top four finishes in the next two seasons but straight sets finals losses consigned them to sixth place in both years. The big fall came in 2024 with a collapse into the bottom six and a 14th placing. At Casey, the 2022 VFL p
