AFL Draft

Don't the AFL love to stretch out the news cycle holding the draft over two days. Trust Sydney to find a draft loophole as well to keep their 2nd round pick and still get their academy player.

I try not to get too excited about the draft since the Tom 'the best 16y old in the country' Swift flop but I am stoked that Ian Hill has made it to our first pick. The go home factor with two cousins at Freo obviously spooked a few clubs and I expect that West Coast will snap him up first thing but the Valente kid looks like a solid pick too.

Bleh!! Another ruckman into the squad.

WCE must have some kind of faith in Jarad Cameron to not grab Hill.

Pretty uninspired after reading our draftees profiles. It's almost like we've drafted with the new WAFL side list in mind....

"Joffa is married to Bosenavulagi's grandma's sister."

 
I know Collingwood supporters are pretty creative in assessing family ties when dipping the wick but unless Joff has been sharing his load between sisters he's no blood relation to the kid.

 Freo have done very well

Fri, 2018-11-23 18:41

 Freo have done very well considering they had like pick 6 and pick 80 at the end of the season...

 

The Hawks have drafted very very well, i sense another couple of Ty Vickorys who as you fellas know was the steal of the draft two years ago!!

 Dale...  Messiah in wiki

Sun, 2018-11-25 08:34

 Dale... 

 

Messiah in wiki doesn't seem to fit his description, something about king of gods kingdom.

 

You'll certainly need god on your side. 

 

There are no excuses left in the freo wank bank now with a list bursting with stars. 

 

Unfortunately the same can be said about 16 of the other 18 clubs. 

 

( I'm leaving gc out for a couple of years) 

 

So with this list will you play finals in 2019

Probably won’t be finals next year, but after these kids get a couple of years together, we should go up.
