Thought we could have a thread ready for the blokes we nab in tonight's draft! I'm pumped :D

This gives us a chance to discuss and vent our feelings towards who we draft. Cheers guys

Pick 32 -Rory Atkins
Pick 34 - Jackson Thurlow

I'm incredibly happy with these selections should they eventuate. I'm not all that sure Thurlow will last until 34 but he could and if he does, we should definitely snare him.

Should we pick Garlett if he's available at Pick 32? I reckon yes, he is probably in the top 10 or 15 for talent but off field stuff has crossed him off some teams lists. With Mark Williams at the club, I reckon he could change Garlett around

Think we should definately take the punt! The guy could be a similar player to cyril for us if we get his head switched on and focused. Silky left footer withs speed. Has great potential

The only problem, is we might not want him, as we already have Dusty to worry about and he might not be avalaibe at 32.

If he's there we should grab him. He'll compliment the pick of vlas who is the disciplined, solid citizen we will take at 9. People have whinged that we probably wont be taking risks on an x factor at 9 but if we get Garlett at 31 i'll be very happy! :)

Still hoping to get Grundy at 9 ;)

Pick 9 welcome Nick Vlastuin :D

Pick 31Kamdyn Mcintosh
Pick 33 Liam McBean
Welcome boys :D haven't read alot into these guys. Will be interesting to see how they go

aces-high

Now Matt McDonough at 42 :D interesting draft for us. All the talk was to nab midfielders yet we've got 1 inside mid, a key back, a backman/ruckmen and a half forward. Time will tell how they go :)

9: Nick Vlastuin - MID
31: Kamdyn McIntosh - DEF
33: Liam McBean - RUC
42: Matt McDonough - FWD

Covered all bases, well done Tigers! Our night is done.

Vlastuin looks ready made for AFL footy. Good build, good height and a great leader from all reports.

Mcbean on the other hand looks more of a long term prospect. 202cm but only 83 kgs

Well now we have a another backup of sorts for Maric.

He wont play for at least 2 years. Needs to put on nearly 20kgs
