Bart McCulloch? Isn't he that ruckman we were going to draft with our last pick a few years back but the Lions grabbed him just before us? Forced us to pass and subsequently pick Cuzzy in the PSD.

I must remind myself to send Vossy a christmas ham.

Spot on Gerks. He's the one.

Ed Barlow's name always reminds me of a Menswear store. I heard he can be a bit "slack" at training with other player running the "pants" off him. But don't bet on him being selected as you could lose your "shirt" :P

Hislop has nominated for the pre-season draft?? Does he need to do this to be rookied or is he not as loyal or confident to be picked up by us as we have come to believe?

You cannot nominate for the rookie draft only Stripes

In this case you nominate for the PSD and if you are not selected in that you automatically become available to be drafted via the rookie draft

He will be rookie listed by RFC IMHO

He approached Laycock and is sniffing at Neagle so it won't surprise me if he does.

Had hopes Hislop would become a good hard player for us, but I can find uses for breasts on a mallee so...

Suns get pre-season draft start
By Jennifer Witham
5:43 PM Wed 01 Dec, 2010



SIX CLUBS will take part in next Tuesday's NAB AFL Pre-Season Draft with Gold Coast holding the first pick.

The Suns have hinted they will target an experienced player with that selection given the number of youngsters they recruited in last month's national draft.

West Coast will follow at No.2 while Richmond is expected to select former Essendon midfielder Bachar Houli, who has been training with the club for a month, at No.3.

Essendon is poised to continue its youth approach at No.4, and could gain another ruckman. Chris Molitor, Jonathan Giles and Josh Jenkins have been training with the Bombers.

Hawthorn is likely to use pick No.5 on former Demon Cameron Bruce, while Fremantle is committed to taking former Collingwood forward John Anthony at No.6.

All the reports I've heard have Houli going really well and being very impressive.
