Kai Lohman to Brisbane.  We would be disappointed with that I reckon.

Lots of quality (? As I don't really know) midfielders still left on the board. We could clean up with our group of picks here.

Shows we don’t rate centre clearances.

Or perhaps we just rate RCD, Ross, Martyn etc at least more than this year's crop of mids... :shh


...and we're after Green and/or Taranto next year... :shh :shh

Without knowing anything about any of the draftees, a mid-sized general defender seems like an odd choice for a first rounder. Seems like the type of role you could fill with a later/rookie pick. Would have preferred a mid or another KP. Anyway best of luck to the kid, hopefully he plays 200+ games and wins multiple flags for the RFC.

How stupid is this over 2 nights.. hate this format

Yep absolutely pointless it being over 2 nights

19 20 picks over 2 hours, what a shambles

Johnson, Sonsie, Taylor, Butler(mid/fwd), Knevitt, Murley, Stagg, Howes (mid/fwd).... :shh

Methinks I may not be the only one who gets Fiora vibes from Johnson.... :shh

...having said that wouldn't be too disappointed if he fell to one of our next three picks... :shh :shh

I reckon the Brown pick is wrong. Not because he doesnt warrant being pickef but we have midfield problems and did nothing to fix it tonight.

I like Johnson but not to be chosen inbthe first 20 picks shows theres an issue somewhere.

Perhaps they are replacing Astbury & Houli with similar type players.  I like shoring up the defensive group with quality.

Add Goater, Motlop and then a couple of others Bazzo or Conway there’s a bit left on the board
