clayton hinkley's name keeps popping up.

if u were carlton who would be your first pick. (forgetting about if u need a ruckman, forward etc.)

Answer 1

Some interesting names in there.  Rioli, Selwood, Hinkley, ... Perhaps thoroughbreds?  I agree with Conda - problem with many teams over the years, sadly including my beloved Cats for some years - talent but no football brain (what DOES one of them look like? :-))

Carlton needs attitude and smarts more than fast or tall.

I reckon they'd be keen to get Selwood as the three brothers have all proven to be pretty good.  It's nearly as good a name as Yaaaaabbbbblllleeeeet!  I'd want to watch Rioli in life and in a game but what a name to scare the opposition with?!  Richmond also have a high pick don't they?

Answer 2

About your yahoo!answers thing you must have been on all day yesterday is you do it goes on to the next day.

So if your on all day yesterday some of your answer from them count as today for different time zones .

Answer 3

I would go for Cale Morton then the Eagles can do a deal for him .

Answer 4

yeah but that's just fitness and speed. I have no idea who is number 1,2....... but you would want to go with talent ahead of fitness since you can aquire the latter but not so much the former. Still having said that Hinkley must still be up there if he is in the top three in all those categories and you would think will be picked up by some team.

If I was involved in draft picks I would look at footage of their games and go more for talent and a footy brain. Classic example is Jason Saddington who must poll well in agility tests and skills but has NOOOOOOOOOOO football brain. I was so glad when Carlton took him off our hands.

Answer 5

Personally id still pick Mathew kruza because your stats didn't show he was in the top 12 on over all tests and at 199 cm and 90 odd kg hes not going to win the shuttle run or agility test,but he did win the comp medal for the under 18's and that's where it really counts-on the ground.
