    Max was fantastic. His career with us was tragically short. His drop-kick goals running out of the middle were something to behold.

      Yes he was probably one of the most skillful Swans ever. I think I still have a footy card of him somewhere......

        Every time I see this Ad, I wonder if this is him? P.s. Kicking action is fine if it is!

        Obviously a one take, no edits

            I would think that if Mills goes at 4 and Dunkley goes at 20+ we'll pick both.

            Surely Carlton won't risk losing Weitering with a vexatious draft pick and I can't see Gold Coast or Brisbane picking him.

            I agree with Ludwig and would pass on him at #1 to teach the Melbourne Clubs a lesson

              I think you may be right, it was before Mills put on the 7kg he has put on whilst being stuck in the gym.

                Must be the AIS squad, if that's what it's still called.

                  Who on here has seen Dunkley play? Keen to get their take on him, whether we need him and views on what he's worth

                    I watched his games in the Championships last year and this year. Small sample size I know, and this year was injury affected but pretty much exactly what all the reports say, he's great in close and really strong over the footy but his kicking isn't great and he doesn't spread well from the contest. Also a pretty strong overhead mark as well!

                      Talk about shades of the father! Having watched big Dunks kick out on the full FROM THE GOAL SQUARE, it would be a marvel if little Dunks has the chops in that department. However, big Dunks could take a mark like no other, always seemed to know where the ball was going to land, was a fantastic defender and could handball with the best of them. Hmmm sounds like a clone to me.

                        He was the best relieving mark from kick ins I've seen. He just clunked them every time, he was a great overhead mark.

                          Is that enough in today's game? We have all at least one complaint about of backline's disposal skills, can we carry another? Have I completely missed something here? What position does Jnr play? Is he a midfielder who, like Pebbles, just got the ball out of the contest and banged it forward?

                            Can you adjust that last sentence for me?

                              Late second rounder at best, if he is available at the right price we atke him, if not we move on

                                Sounds like a straight ahead defender.
