  1. 1. Melbourne- Sibosado 2. Port Adelaide- Carr 3. Essendon- Skipworth 4. Carlton- Johnson 5. Brisbane- Cousins 6. Richmond- ??? I have a strange feeling about Brisbane. Lets see what tomorrow brings!
  2. kill two birds then... MFC SHOULD DRAFT COUSINS!!!!!!
  3. Is that casey fields? Great looking cover of the green stuff
  4. I am convinced that Sibosado has to be #1 PSD unless there is a real issue with him non-football related. 1/ Firstly while they are only "high lights" they are by far the best highlights of players still available. 2/ He is KPP which we did not target in the national draft (Watts was only tall taken) 3/ Most other clubs seem to have their selections locked in therefore we should still get a good player #1 Rookie (De-Bore or Rockliff who are not KPP) 4/ There are only 2 major holes currently in our list - KPF and a Ruckman. Spencer will hopefully come on over the next year (you need 2 good rucks with johnson being the other) this leaves KPF which we currently have no back up if injury hits us. 5/ With the PSD we need to look 1-2 years down the track.....miller being a QLD boy could be a GC17 target as well, I rate this bloke through the roof, however when the trade time comes we could potentially do very well out of a miller for a top 3-7 pick GC17 will be desperate for a leader and KPF. therefore take the opportunity now to top up don't wait until it is too late for our talls! Watts will be great, but your only ever as good as the options you have up forward.
  5. I like the Idea as the test starts on wed so anything before then will be a bonus. If siddle plays wed/thur will be cricket in the HUN and any exposure will be pushed back a bit.
  6. Good to see! My wife who was a sydney member is now 2yr mfc member as well. If every MFC current member could convert a heathen we would push 50k
  7. I would love to see watts play >12 good games next year as much as anybody. But the game has changed a lot since fletcher started back in the early 90's. To be fair these days you need to be 100% for football as a sports professional. You can't have 2 full time jobs and thats why we will see watts but unlikely to be more then 1/2doz games in 09. I do think he will play rd 1 if he is fit.
  8. Totally agree on you there, Sibosado is worth the risk for me. I have a real question over rockliff's set shot which no one else has brought up and being that he would be seen as a FP he has to have good skills. Also I believe we have a few that can play this position well even if robbo doesn't come up. Therefore a KPF is what we need and Sibosado is the best avail player for this role from his highlights package. The thing that excites me is that if Bris take Yze we could get both.
  9. By being a rookie thats exactly what he will get as soon there is an injury. The fact is we are better keeping him for now on the rookie list and putting another player who shows more potential on the list proper. I have stated before that unfortunately valenti is not in our best 25 moving forward and think the club sees it the same way otherwise they would have already promoted him. Who knows where he might be in 12 months, he does seem to be the sort of player that could grab any opportunity but if I was to look into my crystal ball I think he will wind up being a very good VFL level player.
  10. A part from the Dee's pulling a shifty and taking cus. Todays article in the HUN is word for word what the "Get CUS to MFC" camp have been saying apart from having the tigers players names. (I just can't let this go until tue is over)
  11. Totally agree and which is why valenti is not there. If one of these "Premium" players get injured I'm sure his opportunity will come. But for now he WILL stay on the rookie list and I don't know why we keep discussing. There is about as much chance of valenti getting a snr spot as us taking cus on tue.
  12. "Let's call it like it is, Valenti will be dropped from the rookie list at year's end. He will never play in a serious finals side." - RoostIT you are spot on. I was a little less blunt but essentially see it the same way. We know what we will get with him so don't waste a spot on the list. Lets all move on.
  13. Great Post!! Below are the more for mine that will have to prove something in 09... Top 3 in Bold! Daniel Bell - Showed plenty so far needs consistancy potential trade at end of season Mark Jamar - If Jake Spencer comes on I think Jamar could be playing his last season James McDonald - Age? Would love to see jnr play in 2010 but if young players are coming through and body not holding up may retire Brent Moloney - Career defining season, fingers crossed Michael Newton - Hopefully given a full oportunity, not 100% sure where our game plan is going and how juice fits into the bigger pitcure Ricky Petterd - with high quality wing/half back player being drafted needs to hold down a snr position this year, I really rate him though Russell Robertson - will he ever be the same? lets hope so but 09 could be his last ..... Be gentle!
  14. RELOCATE THEM TO WEST SYDNEY!
  15. What ever happens I say well done to the Tigers for giving him a go (If it happens). Good luck to em if they get a special dispensation from the AFL. I still believe the MFC have had the blinkers on in relation to this and I am still hoping for us to pull a suprise but know that it won't happen I would hate to be playing them in rd 1 if he is fit. I think it is the blues so hopefully the tigers give carlton the start that we are all hoping for.
  16. There's also nothing gained at this point by having valenti on the list either. I want to see a KPF and Sibosado is the right fit. that will then leave Rockcliff as our 1st rookie (This is just speculation), but I think is quite likely to happen. Even De-Bore as 1st rookie. Not in our best 25, but if injuries and still playing well at VFL then an opportunity might come up. He played some great games last year and filled a role but is not one of our best and certainly not one of our best moving forward.
  17. Fair Call, but this would mean that we could potentially take both Rockcliff and Sibosado without other clubs getting a lookin. If we pass i think we get the 1st pick in rookie then the rest have their go don't they? So based on this leave Valenti where he is and if the need arises lift him then.
  18. any publicity at the moment is good publicity. But I smell a Membership marketing opportunity after reading todays article. While we have more members then this time last year most are members which have resigned early. Therefore the challenge is to attract more new members before christmas. 20k for xmas would be a good start for 09
  19. I know what I would like for christmas! Hopefully the legal system does its job this time + Salary cap breaches uncovered in blue land!
  20. Not for me, we have enough young tall defenders. FKP or ruckman for mine
  21. well done on the effort gettin down there. I always miss a beat pre-season when these things happen!
  22. High Tower, Check the early thread Frank claimed this was directly from CC. Am I the only one that took this as a bit of banter back then? Take a deep breath! - Remember there's nothing wrong with trying to stir up the CFC - They bring it on themselves!
  23. talking about carlton and great community minded blokes - was Pratt back in court yesterday?
