I didn't think I would...but then I didn't think Menzel would go all Harold Holt on us.i would like us to invest, in small forwards for the rookie draft.
Real skinny, electric pace and keen goal sense.

did anyone see Hardwick in U18's, thought he looks a gun in the making. Flying under the radar. Snagged 10 in Tac earlier in the year aswell.

Ainsworth not eligible for the draft until next year

-If O'kearney is going to make it, it's as a mid
- Collins, I highly doubt lasts to our second
-Bonner isn't a KPD
-as someone else said, Ainsworth is next year, if he was eligible this year, he'd go top 10 anyway
...everything else I agree with
He certainly would not last until the second round if he was eligible.

When I say second pick i mean (hopefully) our second pick in the first round (hopefully in the 10-15 range).
And dayumm, didn't know Ainsworth was next year.

About what pick would you expect him to go next year LM?
Judd - ACL
Gibbs - Pec, Shoulder
Thomas - 10 seconds before season over
Waiting for tanking calls when we lose a close game soon.

Darren Gaspar - Sydney Swans (1993). Injured his knee and was delisted at the end of 1996. Richmond came knocking in the PSD and the rest is history.

Senior List
The type of players we should be looking at drafting will depend on our list changes. We need a key position defender, a key forward and we need to inject some midfield class and a small forward. Jacob Weitering, Josh Schache and Darcy Parish would be players that I would like at the club and we will be at the right end of the draft to have a realistic chance of landing one of these youngsters.
Jacob Weitering would be a great list fit if Schache was off the table. Would be totally ideal if Cam Giles turns out alright as well. Basically means that Giles will be able to play as that third tall intercept mark defender and Rowe your lockdown defender. Would be nice if we could have Fields and Giles as those third tall intercept marking defenders
I'm also warming to the idea of selecting Harry Mckay, moblie mid who is a ruckman size. Saw him play quite a bit as a junior with my little brother. He was a mid not a ruckman/ KPP when he was 14-15 yo but he is still able to play those roles well.

Rowe is a disaster.

Rowe should only be at the club for another couple of years and then be replaced by Giles.

He isn't a bad stop gap defender. Him and Jamison will still play an important roll whilst we develop Giles (hopefully) and Weitering (potentially).
Jaksch to play CHF next year. But next to whom?

If we end up with pick 3 and Brisbane and Gold Coast pick Weitering and Schache. We should pick Weideman he'll be a top 5 pick and the type of player we need. Francis is going to be HBF and we have enough of them. Parish will be a star but we need an A-grade spine to build around.
I really can't see us not having either pick 1 or 2 by the end of the year.
If we take Weitering @2 and have another mid first rounder pick 12-17 Ryan Burton would be the forward which I'd be most interested in.
His more your Jake stringer style forward.

Brisbane are a joke atm so expect pick 2.
They played ok today just couldn't kick straight. Wouldn't mind having pick #2
There is very little chance they will take Weitering and he is my pefered option.
His leadership and scope for improvemeant are off the charts. IMO the best talent in this years draft.
Some people think that we need a key forward more ATM and that may be true.
But Jacob Weitering has the same kind of skill set as Jeremy Cameron did as a 17yo.
It would not surprise me to see him play at both ends of the ground to a very high standard.
Not many 17yo KPP would be a walk up start to any AFL side.
Pretty special talent just hope his in the navy blue come draft day.

Can't think of a Carlton player who would have been coming from further back than Giles.
White played the role he was being groomed for this year which used to go to Gibbs under Rattens reign. He had to play KPD the past month with no consistent Jamison/Rowe appearances and Fields brought in to try and allow this structure to maintain. Jamison is underdone and Fields is raw. The last month we have still been doing better than expected. Melbourne just won so there is now 2 games between us and the next 3 teams plus 8%. Youd expect that limits us to the bottom 3 teams which is where (at this stage) the talent breaks between the high end crop (Schache, Weitering & Francis) and the rest pretty much guaranteeing us a KPP. If we arent going to be involved in the finals you may as well bottom out and get the best chance at top end talent so i for one am happy as possible that we arent picking up wins but staying in it and getting games into the kids. Its not ideal but at least we arent loitering around the middle of the ladder and i actually think there is plenty of talent on our list that with a more modern game plan we will be involved again sooner rather than later. Kreuzer back stringing games together and Giles next year will give us another kpd option. We get pick 1-3 and 19-21 instead of a no mans land pick of 8-12 as there is always a break of talent after the top 5 before the next level (of course there is talent later as has been proven every year but it becomes a bit more speculative, you are generally very safe percentage wise with picks in the top 5).
Jamison and Rowe will now have support next year of Fields, Jaksch and Giles so all of a sudden our kpd depth looks very good.
