The draftees girlfriends sitting next to them make me feel old.

I suppose after bidding Henry at 8, GCS would've come at us with picks 17+20 to get Flanders. And you have to wonder which of Serong, Picket, Weightman or Kemp would've been there at 17-20. Also Young was 7, so we've picked up Pickett instead of Serong, not Young afaik Edit: Another interesting thing of note is the GCS/Carlton trade could've been about Jack Martin now that GCS have come out and said they won't touch him. Another case in point in relation to our lack of 'shrewdness' - We certainly love to jump out of the way and make sure other clubs get their wins. And yet here we are with pick 2 in the PSD still able to be shrewd and get a free player.

Gotta admire his full commitment to it, getting caught half way in between shaking and not is an awkward nightmare

The interesting thing will be averaging it out with next years draft, and if we can get back into the first round or not. Clearly when you take two top 10 picks you're in A territory and awaiting confirmation with form. But the caveat is next year of course. No matter how far we go, we will not be able to acquire much additional firepower without trading an asset/losing a player i think. A 2021 1st round can't be worth that much to trade, if we're back up in that top 8 bracket in 2020.

Mid-season draft possibility if he's not taken before then, i suppose?

I suppose they can nominate for the mid season draft, should anything happen to anyone on our list, we can pick one of them up?

Same old posters jumping in to attack any criticism of the club. Almost as if they just wait around on this forum for someone to call dumb. Seems like a dumb use of ones time, when we're all waiting for ACTIONS on the field and a turn around in results next year to actually prove the intelligence (or lack of) of any statements made.

A defender named Rivers? Are we keeping him warm for Geelong again?

I don't know if i can support another Jeremy after the last one burnt me while on vacation in Bali

The kind of face you don't want to see winding down a car window to ask where you're headed while walking home late at night

He'll miss the first 10 weeks with a carry over suspension from a head high bump in the juniors Sorry guys!

Speaking of chips, how about a sprinkling of brighton grammar grown truffle flakes ?

As long as you don't pick a Toumpy kind of sauce that gives you the runs (And nothing else) the morning after!

Get that filthy song out of my head

You want the sauce with the best kick

Just watched the Nic Nat & Luke Jackson 7 news video... Far out, i'm excited to get three picks in the 15-20 range in 2021

He's more of your poker, stabbing at it. Salem never kicks a 50m bullet like dagger the way Tex Walker does. Furthermore, you don't just want target hitting, but target creating. ie leading your reciever into the space YOU want to kick. Salem doesn't do that so much imo.

Everyone congregating in here like it's the Draft Day Match thread, rather than a speculative player thread. I guess today will forthwith be known as Luke Jackson Day as it commemorates the moment everything changed and demonland was never the same. Fans split into different camps, bickering over the pick for the next decade

Maybe they all want us to ignore Young by pumping up Jackson ?

And then we'll trade Gus for Hogan next year

You need to drum up some drama between Rowell and Anderson on social media and turn them into enemies in the next 24 hours

I can't believe Jason Taylor drafted Austin Bradtke instead of Ben Simmons

D-Vein

I hope he takes a chest mark like JK and not JW

Well yeah, because a few of the past selections have opened up the opportunity for them, by playing insignificant footy...
