What’s the obsession with Brisbane linked players
Not sure why we didn’t look for a key forward or Backman
I’m a bit down, seem we only participated because we had to this year

Most people only participated in 2020 because we had to. Goes with the theme of the year

Finally over.

Took 4 hours to do just 59 picks :-P. Went an hour and a half overtime.

So we currently have the fourth strongest hand in next year's "super draft"(Based on this year's ladder):

I'm fine with this.

Plenty of picks for 2021's allegedly deep draft.

Got our boy MRJ.

Development ruck at 206cm, about 20yo already and from Brisbane academy so he should be a step ahead of the pack.

The big fella looks good, takes a good mark, not afraid of taking a crude hit or two.  Pretty happy with this pick.

The club obviously didn’t want to take this draft seriously.

If you can make Soldo a decent premiership ruckman than skies the limit for this
young kid that was not on any pre draft listing and was described as a massive surprise mover in the draft order according to those “experts” on Fox footy.

Obviously this draft had a bunch of meh players, the same players teams like the filth and the drug cheats are salivating over.  :rollin

I can only trust the club knows best as proven time and time again.
The club that keeps giving.

Just reading Collingwood's war room article explaining how they ended up getting 5 picks inside 40 odd.  In a draft we clearly didn't rate after pick 20 it pleases me that other clubs are falling over themselves to pick up these player's.

I was enjoying the fact that they have to still count an extra million on their salary cap for Treloar for the next 5 years LOL, belly laugh of the decade.  Trade war II electric boogaloo

They're called the big winners at the draft... it's like when your mate says he just won $300 at the pokies, but put $2k through the machine.

AFL website suggesting that the RFC may invite Derek Eggmolesse-Smith to train over the pre-season with a view to re-draft him as rookie  :gobdrop

Foxsports website says we have two rookie spots still open.

It also says AFL clubs can have up to 6 players train with them from Jan.

Eggy would presumably remain a Cat B rookie. So we would still have two Cat A rookie spots free.
