Scully was a huge Tiger man growing up.

Was devastated when Melbourne had the first two picks and he was almost guaranteed to go there  ;)

I've heard this story a dozen times means nothing mate

I guess not, but more than most players (wanting to play for their childhood team) he was desperate to get to Richmond at the time. I know that straight from the horses mouth ;)

Finlayson from GWS has been told to explore his options despite signing an extension back in June.

An athletic defender 196 cm and 93 kg 22 years old.

We could do worse than trading a 3rd round pick for him.

The funny thing about Fyfe is that while he was a Tigers supporter as a kid, indeed the family are, Fyfe hated Fremantle!

If we chose to call out Fyfe’s name instead of the big girl Griffiths with the pick immediately before Fremantle then yes, that rumour is absolutely true. :banghead

I can't remember anyone complaining at the time. We are all experts with the power of hindsight.

Well fyfe has been in the system for ages, it wasnt that long ago we were discussing Lennon and if he'd make it.
Oh well can't worry about it now just have to make sure what we do draft is going to take us forward

i hate it when morons do the 'we coulda had him' with dudes like Fyfe. Guy was overlooked 18 times or so before being taken. Even Hawthorn took Roughead over Franklin initially and got lucky he fell to 5th... :shh

Conca over Heppel is the one that hurts.
