I wouldn't be paying much attention to Phantom drafts past the first round, they're never very accurate, mostly just guesses.
None of us know whether the players we've drafted are any good yet. We'll have to wait till we see them play.

It's the draft, we have a team of professional recruiters who spend 13 months a year researching this and best of all I don't have Fox 
It's the draft, we have hope, the best time of year in many respects.

High risk, high reward.
I'd rather take a chance than die of boredom.

Detail on this boy please. |
A Byron Pickett type with Cyril Rioli type tricks acc to his coach - of course without placing to much pressure on the kid! |
Cheers
i just looked at the CFC link jezza put up. 191cm and 96kg is a wrecking ball. If he has some speed and tricks he could cause carnage.

I don't know why the so called experts are treated with so much respect. I mean they call Terry Wallets the list manager. Did bloody wonders for Richmonds list and drove them into years of mediocrity. The only good footy thing about Callum Twomey is his surname. Bucky is a good bloke but couldn't coach and is more an administrator than anything else.

I like the look of him. We finally brought in a skillful crumbing forward...only been 5 years. |

Yeah, sorry, slip of the finger. I'm on the second bottle of red and the coordination is deteriorating.

| I hoped we'd sneak this bloke in, he's a gun and just the type we need in our forward line. In a couple of years him and Daics at the feet of moore and cox is going to be deadly. |
