Who should we choose with our first draft pick?

[YellowandBlackBlood]

Opening the dialogue up: (Assuming we don't trade our pick for say Taylor Adams)

My pick has changed of late because of the loss of Matt White.  We need another midfielder but we don't want another slowish one.  We need someone with real leg speed. I think we really should go hard for Nathan Freeman from the Sandy Dragons.
181cm 85kg with the best burst of speed of anyone in the draft.  Very talented player that is also a clearance machine.

Thoughts?

Sounds good, would be good to see links to highlight videos of the players recommended so we can compare. I can remember a thread like that during the Martin, Scully, Trengrove draft....really saw the goods in Martin way back then..

Actually, just noted the results of todays combine.  He came second in the 20m sprint with a time of 2.82 seconds and first in the repeated sprints with a time of 23.62 seconds.

Christian Salem is our man

Sandringham Dragons, 183cm, 82kg, 15/7/95
A smooth-moving and classy left-footed midfielder who also played a role for Vic Metro last year as it went on to win the division one title. Has a damaging kick and often sets up play as the linkman through the middle of the ground.

They say damaging kick but this kid is elite on both feet!! The kid will dish it up on a platter to our forwards for many years to come

I've heard a bit about this kid and if he slips through to us then like , whoa, look out

He'll Slip! we've had our eyes on this kid since birth, he's got a boot on him like a double sided scud missile and is more evasive than a rainbow chameleon sliding through Josephs technicolor dream coat! Whoa!!!

Whoa Loui whoa

Actually if Ben Lennon slips to us, we'll pick him.  Best kick in the draft and was one of the kids training down at punt road like Cotchin did before he was drafted.

Yea I've heard a bit about him too, whatever, I haven't got a worry in the world with fj at the draft table, fair dinkum he could spot the next black cav at glance if he were at the yearling sales. He's a god damn genius at spotting talent and I'm still pinching myself we have him on the payroll

If we pick a player that the club overlooks are we then qualified to slag off at the kid who got picked for the rest of his career?
