Rookie draft thread

Not sure about the thought process behind these selections and passing in the PSD.... 

Oh well time will tell.....again.

No probs with passing on the PSD

With the PSD you had to give 2 year deals - not worth that risk IMO

Additionally, with 'free agency' in full swing we want more year to year flexibility (contract wise).

[Yeahright]

so how do we use a psd pick.  the only option i could see was the newman option if that is closed it would mean we have to cut another player that wont happen.
so any talk of a psd pick is well just silly then. 

gotta say im pretty peeed with this situation and again it shows just how poorly we run our list and over rate players we have.

lol at orren stephenson if people were peeed off at how poor angus was they are gunna be worse with this bloke.  he was torn apart in games this yr may as well have kept graham.

if wood and stephenson are the best they can come up with they should not be in the job. i suppose they are now thru terrible list management forced to do something or anything.
 what i dont get is why keep derickx on the list if wood and stephenson are to be the backup why keep tom at all. geez we have been poor when it comes to ruckmen.

1. How do you know you're right and clubs wrong, if any of us are gonna take an opinion you'd think we'd trust it from a professional. If you had as good a insight you think you have you'd be recruiting for a team.
2.Graham probably wanted out
3. We keep derickx we cop it from you yet you complain we don't have enough ruckman. Any excuse to bag the club yeah?

Saw on the Melbourne board they said we were trying to be like Sydney. Quite ironic considering their scatter gun approach this off season. Spastics.

We got our blokes for nothing.

Couple years ago they were laughing at building a fwd line around cook hurrah pettard

Everyone is jealous of us.

What are Carlton laughing at. They picked up 2 delisted players too. Funny thing is they had been delisted by the Blues themselves.

Overall I reckon we did what we needed to do in the rookee draft and that is get depth.Last couple of years we have been drafting all kids and got caught out when injurys camed up playing players still not afl ready.Orren is insurance for Maric we seen what happen when Browne and Graham offered when he was out injuried and still ???? on Big Tom D.Gives us time to groom a young ruckman to.Lonegan gives us that tuff in and under midfielder like a Tuck who is 31 dont forget and Foleys injurys a worry to.The guy played 14 games in 2012.Petterd I'm not sure about hope it turns out better then Maric.We have struggled in his position he plays.Has Xfactor and seriously can play, but needs to be injury free and to be consistent.
