Interesting that he didn't say Scully.

March putting his foot in his mouth again when answering the media  :help. When does any club president publicly come out and say who their club is going to draft let alone say it over a month out from the draft and when another club has the first two picks before us :P.

When will this club learn to shut up and keep things internal :banghead.

I dunno, isn't he really just stating the obvious anyway?

I have no trouble him saying who we're taking when we have pick 3.

We can't lose.

If we had pick 10 and he was saying things like that i'd think differently.

he should have included scully as well and really ramped up the pressure on the demons to make the correct call.

Do you think him saying Trengove or Martin means that Melbourne could be still considering Morabito, Butcher or even Martin??

fcuking ccokhead is March.

Its just not professional practice to do this. Our next pick is 19. The more uncertainty in the draft, the more chance that a kid we think will go 14, 15, 16 will slip to 19.

Have to agree with you MT, now we will end up with Scully, everyone may think this is a good thing but I don't if it happens, Butcher has a bad kicking trate and Scully is carrying injuries. Hawthawn picked um..... um...... whats his name with an injury and he has hardly played a game and he was rated as the top draft choice at the time.

How does this mean we will NOW end up with Scully?

Actually I find it funny - someone from the Club said what was it 2 weeks ago? we were likely to go with Martin and that was OK

Now the President repeats it and you'd think the world was about to end  :rollin

Oh ok WP MAYBE, MAYBE we will get Scully. That comment was made 2 weeks ago when Scully was a certain to go at No.1, now APPARENTLY over the past 2 WEEKS he has been checked out and his knee is not 100% so the Dees MAY go for Martin instead IMO IMO IMO!!!! March's comments now at this point in time ar stupid IMO IMO.

BTW, I have been watching and you seem to ridicule just about all my posts, forum it is but back the stuff off man.

what an absolute tool is our very own president.

seriously ive had an abolute gutfall of the comments this guy makes in public.

I wouldnt care as much if he listed 5 or 6 players but to only single out 2 shows his hand to the demons before the cards are played.

WP your missing the point no preseident should ever declare his/her hand before the draft. Its unprofessional practise.

I understand the point daniel but he isn't the first and he wont be the last. Go back to when the Doggies drafted Cooney and you may find Smorgan did the same thing

In the overall scheme of things I don't think it's the end of the world...

Should he have done it? Nope but he did and thats that  :thumbsup

My point was very simple there is a very big difference between "we will NOW get so 'n' so" and "we MAYBE"

If the Demons go for Martin they go for Martin. It will be how it will be....

The top 3 picks are standouts by all reports so we are going to get a very good player. End of the day that's all we want.

And regarding your last comment I don't believe I am ridiculing you but if you believe that I am - Sorry  :thumbsup
