Given it is likely Essendon will select Weideman with one of their picks, who do you think is the more likely we take with our other first rounder out of Francis, Milera and Oliver?
Francis has most talent from that group from what I've seen, but why is he sliding all of a sudden?
Landsberger also seems to think we are into Milera, whereas Oliver fits a need the most out of the 3
Plausibly Parish if there could be that other selection for Essendon. If Parish isn't there Milera and Oliver have been the two more strongly linked to Essendon.
Francis I've found inconsistent in his play and his SANFL League form post- u18 championships to be disappointing and unimpressive overall.
I have a question about your draft rankings. I was updating my big board the other day, and not much changed really - I think Cuningham was a late riser, and I finally came around to Harry McKay. But that was pretty much it. Given we're only two weeks out from the draft, I figure things would be fairly set. But your personal rankings still seem quite fluid?
For example, in your last three updates...Ryan Burton has gone from 30, to 44 and back to 25. Darcy Tucker from 32, to 50 and then 26. Chris Jansen dropped from 27 to 45 overnight. What is it that sees such change so late in the piece?
The ratings of those who I don't rate as probable to have an AFL career are always those who will move around the most. And that's the story of those I rate outside the top roughly 20 where any of those guys 20-50 could plausibly make it, but I'm just not betting on them. And my feelings and preferences will swing with it.
