Mutterings persist that a certain J Lyons taken earlier in this draft might end up replacing Mr Callinan, JC. But time will tell - for now, that's a pretty wise pick from Iron Knob. I think when he is 100% Callinan is still first choice, he had a great year last year and injuries have derailed his 2013. I was happy with what I saw of him last week and at worse he can be a semi able bodied backup until 2014 If healthy he has some ability to score 80+ but the entire crows FWD line is a mess without Tex and Tippett so its a gamble.

Probably right Jimbo. I was just taking the piss out of the fact that he finally started playing once I gave him the boot! Lol.

Kommer is a nice pickup, surprised he lasted so long. Melbourne players are a lottery now, does Neeld going raise, lower or have no effect on their stocks.. Neeld always seemed like a decent human being, but rarely seemed like a great coach, so raise seems likely..

Yeah I thought for sure Kommer would be gone by the time it got to pick 48, so was happy with that. Forward options were limited so I'm just banking on Dunn playing consistently until the end of the season.
Oops...my pick, didn't think it would come around that quick. Good thing I checked I guess. Wish Vossy would play this bloke more, I mean he plays all the other redheads... Pick 53 - Ryan Harwood
