Of the available i would go for Watts and of the potentially available i would be happy with any of them except Meyer and Johnson but not really sold on Bradley or sampi either.

Geez I am praying hard for the magical Jared Brennan

If you saw his 7 goal gaul agsinst the Pies at the MCG, then you will understand why

ben Mckinley is contracted for next year so isnt an option...

Fergus Watts is our realistic option who is young and would potentially add alot to our side if he clicked his game like he has the potential to

all i know about fergus watts.. is he was the player in the dream team comp... who u get coz he was on the bottom of the price list...

haha, lets get mckinley next year CAC...yeah i wouldnt mind brennen but i fear that the two really good options that could pop up in the PSD will go straight to richmond and carton and we will miss out on any bargains..

I'd take a punt on either Bradley or Watts. It's a PSD pick so it's not like you're expecting these guys to set the world no fire, but if they do than it's a bonus. (I'm working under the assumption that even if Brennan nominates for the PSD, he'll be picked up before us)

The one advantage we have is that we have more room in our salary cap than Richmond, and after the Blues signed Judd I'd guess the same thing. So a player can nominate his price to get to us, just like Gasper did to end up at Richmond (I have a long memory!!) and avoid us.

Interested in looking at Danny Meyer - top 10 pick with pace - could add something we're missing.

What's your call on him goodoil?

Posted
With five spots still to fill on the senior list (assuming Bode will be promoted) I can't imagine we'll let anymore players go this year.

according to wikipedia, bode is promoted

def get x man clarke, seens to be injuries now

Darren Pfeiffer would be worth a look. Pick 17 in 2005 running backman who reportedly has a lot of potential, was playing very well for Norwood and a lot of the Crows fans are very unhappy with him being cut. Apparently the problems might have been off field so if we could turn him around he might be a great pick up

Jude Bolton has signed a new two year contract with the Swans, I believe Selwood has re-signed with Brisvegas. I'd also heard whispers Sampi was going to be given one more year as well.

The list is thinning. If a few names aren't added to the list it may not even be worth participating in the PSD. No player mentioned in this thread excites me at all.

Posted

Have to be careful who we pick up int PSD, we dont wont a dud, i think Brennan is a liability... i think more players will come to hand. Prismall from the cats would be a good option if available


Posted
can somebody like J.Brennan be drafted in the natioanl draft before the PSD?

Yes.

Posted
Yes.

But they don't have to nominate for the Draft do they? and if they do are the paid the minimum salary? where as in the pre-season draft they can put a price on their head.

Posted

I thought I read somewhere over the weekend that Ian Perrie got delisted by Adelaide.

He's no Wayne Carey, but as pantaloons says, the list is thinning and is pretty uninspiring so far. Perrie might be a handy pick up at a cost of next to nothing.

Posted

Only delisted players can nominate for the national draft on Nov 24, otherwise out of contract players can walk into the PSD, name a price and get that price. Unless you're Whitnall, and then you'd take anything.

Posted

Only if their club delists them. Players contracts are valid till the 31st October, and final nominations for the national draft is prior to that. Otherwise Judd could have gone to Carlton as their 1st pick in the national draft, without the fuss.

Posted
Yes.

Brennan can't nominate for the ND unless he is delisted by Brisbane, which won't happen. Listed players can only nominate for the PSD. (Was that the question?) That's my understanding anyway, I stand for correction.

As for the current list, well, colour me uninspired. I'd prefer not to participate based on that list.

    UP IN LIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Those who watched the 2024 Marsh AFL National Championships closely this year would not be particularly surprised that Melbourne selected Victoria Country pair Harvey Langford and Xavier Lindsay on the first night of the AFL National Draft. The two left-footed midfielders are as different as chalk and cheese but they had similar impacts in their Coates Talent League teams and in the National Championships in 2024. Their interstate side was edged out at the very end of the tournament for tea

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc. When he’s on song, he’s unstoppable but he did blot his copybook with a three week suspension in the final round.

    A couple of Demonland Trackwatchers braved the rain and headed down to Gosch's paddock to bring you their observations from the second day of Preseason training for the 1st to 4th Year players.
