Elliot Kavangh, he has brillant disposal skills and could complement both Jobe Watson and the entire Essendon midfield very well.
Jobe Watson IS the entire Essendon midfield :P
And Stanton.
BAZINGA!
I hear Hird was looking at getting another ruckman at the draft. Why must he act so stupid?
We lost Jenkins & Hille is old so why wouldn't we get another ruck to develop? Need at least 4 on the list...
Because we have 2 good ruckman ATM, but we don't have a good midfield at all. We need to be getting as many midfielders as possible at the draft.
At the next draft, yes pick up the best ruckman we can get. But not ATM.

We don't need midfielders with all our picks & it won't happen.

You lost should get Ellis but i doubt he'll survive that long.

I have heard a pretty strong rumour up here that you are also considering Fev.
If he was a midfielder then yes, but hell no!

Boomz

Hope we pick up... Kavanagh, Grigg/Ross/Manson (Whichever is available :P) & Downie... Crammers upgraded with our last pick :)

I doubt Ross will last till 59. We will have to make a choice between Grigg or Ross if Grigg makes it that far.

Manson is a big no-no IMO.
Will get homesick and leave in a heartbeat.

It's a risk definitely but I'd take it... Have you seen him play?

I don't like Crozier much, so I hope we avoid him.

In a perfect world I would like to see us select Kavanagh 1st round and Mitchell Grigg with 31  8)

Wasn't Crozier expected to go top 10 until he got injured? Or am I confusing him with someone else ...

Yes I have. Freakish, but is it worth pouring everything into him for 2 years, only for him to walk out?
He got homesick at Draft Camp after 1 day!  ::)

It is in a lot of ways! Would be a massive culture shock. How long would any of us last if the roles reversed?

I am more worried as if he hasnt been away from his family, his just a waste of a pick.

Very soft IMO Voldy.
I'd last longer than a day! He cried after 1. Bit over the top  :-X

Still an absolute gun though.
