PRE 2018 Phantom Draft

[bullus_hit]

Do GWS have points to match it

Yep, with the discount they just sneak in.

 

[BrisTiger24]

Dogs bid on Kieren Briggs from the GWS Academy.

Surely Briggs would rather be at GWS where he has Mumford teaching him the ropes?

Mummy will instill a bit of white line fever into the young lad.

Freo- Luke Foley

Damn !! He was my next selection for Richmond ...................... Nearly had him

 

[bullus_hit]

Ok, I'm offline for awhile but assuming GWS take Briggs (and they'd be mad not) I'll instead select Jacob Kennerley from SA. He's a wingman who performed exceedingly well at the carnival & has also played some solid reserves footy. Could feasibly get games next year.

Damn !! He was my next selection for Richmond ...................... Nearly had him

Nope, I would have taken him.

Before you go, bullus, the Bombers bid on Bulldogs NGA prospect Buku Khamis.

Matched, we like Buku and his athleticism. Definitely one of the better general defenders in the pool.

 

[footballmonk]

Yes, GWS match the bid on Briggs.

Matched, we like Buku and his athleticism. Definitely one of the better general defenders in the pool.

Thought you might.

The Bombers need to get a wriggle on if they want to achieve anything, with Hurley and Zaka turning 29 next year, Hooker 31, Bellchambers 30, Heppell 27, Myers 30, Ambrose 28, and even Shiel and Smith will be 26.

Everyone is on the lookout for the next Tim Kelly and we love a shortcut at Tullamarine, so we're going for South Fremantle B&F Marlion Pickett. The 26-year-old moved from half-back to the midfield this year, replacing Kelly, and excelled. He had a couple of big finals, including 26 disposals and 4 goals in the qualifying final, and 25 and 2 in the semi.

183cm, 85kg, spent time in the joint as a young man but has his life on track. Tough ball-winner with pace, skills, and the ability to take a hanger, we didn't want to take the risk someone else would snap him up before our next pick in the 60s.

Brisbane Stkilda Richmond next 3 picks Then Port have 2 picks ready to go

 

[BrisTiger24]

After 2 kids, Lions are looking to add some size. So we select Riley Bowman from Dandenong. He can play ruck and forward which we like. Will fill out nicely and be a good ballast to the lanky Hipwood

 

[turk-d-tiger]

Think its time to get a move on with St Kilda looking like not being online shall i just take the pick for Richmond Bullus

 

[turk-d-tiger]

Richmond bid on Geelong father son prospect Oscar Brownless

 

[bullus_hit]

Calling on Saints & Cats

 

[Tigers of Old]

Cats match

 

[turk-d-tiger]

Pick #44 Richmond select
James Rowbottom - Oakleigh Chargers football club / VM
186cm 79kgs
D.O.B - 19/9/200

Predominantly inside midfielder that has nice size and flair and has developed his game nicely

"One of the draft crop's big bolters, the hard-working midfielder steadily improved his inside craft throughout the year to average 21.9 disposals and 6.5 tackles per game.
He was rewarded with four appearances for Vic Metro at the national under-18s championships, doing his draft prospects no harm with his reliable performances.

Biggest downside to James is he is the Nephew of the former Richmond & Collingwood player now flog - Brian Taylor

Good pick up, I had my eye on him too. Didn't know he was related to BT....Rowbotton should be Bargebottom
