Another thing Diesel said was Lord is the reason Bam Bam was traded. Lord was going to get games because of his speed of mind, great hands in close and runs hard to create options….some call that spread…bet you didn’t associate spread with Lord, other than spread the lords word . Lord is not only quick he’s very strong too. Sounds like a perfect midfielder to me.

Mentioning Diesel and Lord in the one sentence is quite fitting as Lord's hand balling is Diesel like . Flat fast darts .

Not an ounce of fat on Lord. That’s the glaring difference. Will Lord be better than Diesel? If he’s half as good…wowee.

Lord’s rise since selected by Carlton in the MSD has been meteoric. He’s still 19yo. At the same age Diesel was rejected By Carlton after both invitations in 1982 and 1983 for lack of speed and fitness.

Don’t underestimate Lord. He will feature in 2025 and still developing.

It was at the age of 21 when Diesel played his first game for Geelong. In that game he amassed 38 possessions.

I think Lord will be better than half as good as Lord.

I can't remember the time line, but did we have pick 3 before we let Carroll go? I think we did. If that is the case then I guess they thought FOS, Draper or Smithy would fill that gap as well.

Give him a crack on the rookie list. Would be good for our VFL team as well.

He won't die wondering

Yes Cazz , I have mentioned this bloke . Strong as an Ox . In the words of Campbell Brown , " I have never seen anyone break a Dom Brew tackle , EVER . A martial arts expert , he has had a couple of cage fights . He is frarcking tough and fearless . I would get him to the Club as a tackling coach at the very least . Interesting Werribee had Bice and Johnson drafted tonight . Hopefully Brew and Jack Henderson get rookie gigs somewhere .

So are we taking just the one rookie selection today and then holding one (or is it two?) spots open for SSP?

We have 3 cat A vacancies plus one cat B which will be Duffy.

So could take 2 rookie draft and leave one for SSP, or visa versa

Thanks Jezza.

It sounds like Michael Sellwood from Peel could be our man in the rookie draft. He doesn’t really address a need, but he seems to have his admirers. I would like another WA player - Clancy Dennis. Although if DGB and S.Durdin are training with us over the summer, then that suggests we’re going for a mature age KPD with a SSP selection and not in the market for another developing KPD after getting HOF last night.

I suspect we'll take Liam McMahon as a ready to go forward too. So a small forward is probably the biggest need we are not covering otherwise

yep... for me a small forward. not sure how many spots we have left, but a bigger body kpd in the durdin mould would be nice too. i'd hate to go into next season relying on weiters to stay fit, or we bust.

I haven’t heard us linked to any small forwards, except Evans (ex Cat & Power), but I would have prioritised that need over a running defender (Sellwood linked to us, Matt Carroll training with us).

I agree a mature age KPD would be handy, and it sounds like that will be our SSP focus with S.Durdin & DGB training with us. I hope we look at Nathan Cooper too, although I think he has just signed with Wangaratta and may have given up on an AFL career. What about Charlie McCartin? Another mature age option is McMahon - he has played defence before but he just had a breakthrough VFL year as a forward (where he mostly played as a junior) so I don’t really consider him a KPD.
