Shrewd.. *auto correct

I have it an A. Recruiting Rivers who I rated a top 25 pick was a bonus. The beauty about this draft compared to last year is all 3 are all ready to go and could all play round 1. We knew last year that the likes of Bedford, Jordon and Neita were all going to be playing VFL all year for development. The way I look at the Jackson pick is that we are bring him in as a key forward more then anything. Watching his highlights the way he flies and clunks his marks reminds me a lot of Tom Lynch from Richmond. A 200cm key forward alongside Weideman and McDonald will give our forward line a whole new dynamic. Jackson coming in allows McDonald to play that 3rd roaming tall which he is best suited to. I expect Weideman to fill out more and play the stay at home forward alongside Jackson. Smart and screwed recruitment by Jason Taylor and his team.

Is that us done for the night?

From East Fremantle which is the same junior club as Luke Jackson! Goodbye go home factor.

Really happy with this pick. Perfect replacement for Hibbo. Can swing through the midfield as well. Had an outstanding junior career.

Impressive write up! Stoked with Rivers! Is that us pretty much done for the draft?

[censored]! Sharp gone...

Trent Rivers heavily linked to Brisbane.

Poita taking it the wrong way? Sure not.....

Sorry but i just have to post this again. It's ridiculous how insanely athletic he is for a 199cm tall. He's quick on his feet to recover and his follow up work is elite. If we can somehow turn him into a genuine key forward then we have an absolute winner.

After the championships, the Stingrays decided to push him up to a wing in the pointy end of the year and see if he could add a whole new element to his game. Within 3 weeks he was moved back to a half back flank because his body of work in the midfield wasn't probably wasn't up to a standard as they would have liked. That's the main query for me. If he struggled to make the adjustment to a midfield role in the Nab league, will he be able to do it at AFL intensity level? Time will tell.

He is based in SA full time. Moved there from WA when he was a kid. Another blunder from our very own Ben Gibson..

How so? Have i missed something with Jack Martin to suggest that all of a sudden he is going to Carlton to become a high quality recruit? Same bloke that was dropped to the reserves towards the back end of the year by one of the worst teams this decade has seen. Kemp Is still a big risk imo. What does that say on Hawthorn and Geelong who also passed him up? Two clubs who are known to have state of the art medical teams. They would have factored that in. Not only that but Carlton then traded up to pick 20 to pick up a kid who was predicted to go in the 3rd round. That's a big enough risk right there considering the talent that was still available around that pick. Carlton fans weren't exactly impressed with that selection either. It's just laughable to suggest Carlton are already the big winner is this draft when Fremantle just snagged 3 quality talents in the top 10.

I am torn between the two PSD. Leaning towards Sharp to be honest.

Wonder if Goody will tell the story to Kozzy on the night he tried to get stuck into his uncle...

Bergman is seriously overrated in my opinion. Bloke by the name of Fraser Phillips who I'd take over him any day of the week.

Is it me or does those highlights when he's clucking those big marks remind anyone of when Mitch Clark was at his best for us back in 2012? We are apparently going to train him into a key forward which excites me even more now.

Took you a while but glad you are on the LJ train Jacko ?

Really surprised Carlton overlook Roberston

Shades of cyril and wiz!

Yeah nah

Yeah Kozzy! King on Fox has HUGE wraps of Kozzy and was quite excited about watching him next year.

Dam those highlights ??

Foxtel just gave away the Stephens pick lol

Think you'll find steve has Saty on ignore.
