The 2016 U18/Draft Thread

[Grazz]

Jarman undrafted as well

Yeh bit of a shock that is mate.

[Ringo]

Really happy with Lions get - McLuggage, Berry, Witherden, Cox, Allison and Lyons.
Leaves us to pick up Rolls with rookie pick.

[meow meow]

Spuds like Graham and Kerr will get picked up.

Jack Graham steal of the draft!

Classic Richmond with their optimism/expectations that'll be dashed by reality.

[BratPack]

On the Hawthorn Mitchell Lewis pick

Mitchell wore number 53 last year for the Calder Cannons

5 = Sam Mitchell

3 = Jordan Lewis

Yeah, but we nailed picks like Richard Tambling back in the day so it doesn't really matter.

[JBs-Hawks]

Hawthorn win the draft!

So apparently our second pick (pick 27) is Dennis Armfield's cousin. That's actually pretty funny considering Dennis also wears number 27. From the highlights he looks like a decent player as well!

[Mat0369]

We got a couple of potential steals by the look of it in Macreadie and Kerr considering where they were rated pre-draft. From what I read Macreadie was looked at as a first round talent?

Kerr is supposed to be limited but is a nice shot on goal and could develop into a nice third scoring option.

Polson has no info on the AFL website but he was injured most of the year. Williamson is an athlete and a bit of a combine star. We can use a couple of athletic freaks so if he can develop his game he might fit another need.

Read he is guaranteed a rookie spot.

Saw a tweet from the club saying they have promised him a rookie spot.  :)

Is this Fisher? Yeah he's a good kid too man, head definitely screwed on. Should serve you well

[Mat0369]

Yeah it's Fisher. He's pretty skinny but looks like he can play. Dennis was described as a bit of a pest but he is a good dude. If they are anything alike in that regard we might have got not only a quality player but a quality person at the club.

It seems like we have been going with a family connection the last couple of drafts. Curnow, SOS, Fisher and Kerr. Kerr's grandfather played at Carlton.

I think I mentioned this before but there's a bloke on BF who is a massive wrap (rap?) for Fisher. actually rated him 2nd best in the draft

I dunno if it's one of his mates or if it's Zac himself but he looks like he can play

[JBs-Hawks]

Hes this years Zac Merrett

[Grazz]

Hes this years Zac Merrett

That's a big wrap. If he is Blues have a very good one.
