I don't think we should be taking chances with Pick 6
Best available please

Tallish

According to Emma Quayle, Darling has begun running and will attend the draft combine. ( Why the stuff do they call it a combine now? what does that mean? )
“For My thoughts are not your thoughts,
Nor are your ways my ways,” says the Lord.
 
“For as the heavens are higher than the earth,
So are my ways higher than your ways,
And my thoughts than your thoughts."

Yahweh? or the great Clawski?

Massive effort if he does. 4 weeks ago was in hospital.

WCE would have pencilled him in I reckon, will be really interesting come draft day to see what they do. Do they risk it on a guy that may slip to 2nd round. Will he be able to play at the level he could over the past 2 years?

Gaff. Has been my pick from day 1. Atley close behind. We need a quality mid its as simple as that

Gaff dosent have the body too lanky

Too lanky?
Gaff listed at 183cm, 78kg.
Atley 187, Caddy 186, Polec 188, Heppell 187, Smith 189.

If we could get pick 15-19 for McGuane / Rance, then we should try and snare him with that pick.  Freo have pick 20 ;)

Atley for me.

Falls under the best available player.

- Atley is bigger than Gaff, just seemed a bit harder at the contest IMO.
- Darling a KP forward looks the goods for mine, great size. Do we want to use a pick 6 on a KP Forward that will be fighting for spots with Riewoldt, Griffiths, Taylor, Post?

- Smith, Polec, Heppell and Smith if you can try and predict the future will be great players but I think Atley is a sure bet IMO.

We can't lose all will be gun's of the comp, Atley has that little bit of star quality about him. Gaff does as well I think Atley's body has him just edging out Gaff. I'd be interested in his numbers at the combine.

190cm is to small for a key forward. Darling would probably work as the third tall in AFL ranks

I would take Gorringe if he was available at 6.

Is he only 190 Ramps? Ge he looks bigger, he throws his weight around, has an ice kick on him.

I'd have Atley and Gaff ahead of him. With his latest injuries he may slide to outside first round, could be a steal
