Had no idea he was in our academy but that's exciting if he is. I have him at 21 in my rankings, really loved his VFL game and he's been impressive all year for Eastern. He has an attack on the ball that you can't teach and is a beast for his age. He's not a great ball user but I think he has a...
From the couple of games I've seen of him, he seems to be a good kick but not a great one. His kicking under pressure is where he can be a bit messy.
Smith is a gun but I'm having trouble putting him in the same tier as Smillie, draper and FOS. All 3 of them have points of difference whereas I...
Not sure what happened but saw Cj Grab his leg I think before having to walk off the field. Seemed quite upset and frustrated, hopefully nothing serious

As much as I want Watson terrorising opposition defenders for the hawks for the next decade, I can't see how we pick him over Curtin. Watson is definitely a need for us, he seems like more of a luxury pick. Maybe if this was 2 years down the line and we plugged the major holes in our list then I...
It'll be interesting to see next week when WA take on metro if Curtain goes head to head with caddy. Could be a big decider for our pick if we choose to go for a tall which after today's game seems likely.

Morris is probably the closest to that style of forward. From the few jets games I've watched he really pushes up the ground, not sure of his height but think it's around 193cm. I think he'd compliment Lewis really well but more of a late first to second round pick.

Ward looks a lot more confident then he did last year and now that he's backing himself in more it's showing how good he really is. All the class in the world and an incredible footy brain, won't be surprised to see him finish near the very top of our b&f this year

My favourite other than reid is curtin. I know we don't need a key defender but with the skill he has he could play anywhere. Great intercept Mark with some serious agility and a good kick.

If Reid continues on the same trajectory, you'd have to think pick 1 would be untouchable, unless someone has an incredible year and rivals reid for the top spot. There's some crazy talent next year so it's definetly possible

I do agree with your post but are there many powerful mids at the top end next year? I don't know many players apart from harley, who we are a low chance of getting, and Watson, Curtin, duursma, moir and the other reid. Duursma possibly could be a powerful mid from what I've heard but are there...
Seems like a few days ago Clark was at the bottom of most lists but now at the top for most. I do like Clark as a prospect but I can't see anything that would put him close to Humphrey, poo or tsatas.
A lot of the arguments seem to be that we should take him because he is a "better fit" because...
I think Phillipous confidence is a really good thing. Over the past few years we've drafted players with great character who are clearly team first players but I think it's time to get a player in who really invokes a sense of competition in the locker room.
His confidence will be backed up by...
I'm sure a lot of you have watched this already, but idk how you can watch these highlights alone and say he's not as impressive as any of the other players at our pick. I know it's just highlights from one game but in my opinion this is enough to set him apart from the others.
On SM-G996B...
If Tsatas is available at our pick we must take him. Baring any major character issues of course, he is a no brainer pick. Had he had an uninterrupted season he'd be making a case for the top player in the draft. If you watch his highlight videos you see how much of a natural and smart outside...
Not the biggest fan of Phillipou but am trying to come around to it as so many seem to really like him on this board. Can someone tell me how he compares to Neil Erasmus from last year?
He was my number 2 for our pick behind Ward and i haven't seen much of him this year but I think he's been...
I think it's mainly due to his kicking. He's still my number one choice for our pick and it's mainly because of his upside. Yes he's a bad kick but I do think he'll improve, but his athleticism and the way he bounces through and around traffic is elite. We need more players that can do this and...
Just had a quick look on the essendon draft page and most of them seem very set on Humphrey, one of them even claimed he should be going pick 1. Obviously they don't know what the Essendon recruiters think but I'm still Starting to think there's a really big chance Sheezel falls to us.

You'd think Mackenzie, being a hawks fan and knowing gold coast are the only thing keeping him from staying home and playing for his favourite team, would tell them he doesn't want to leave vic

They won't take Busslinger with their first because they know we won't. I think it'll come down to Mackenzie or Humphrey for them, They have their core 3 midfielders so hopefully they take Humphrey as someone who can make an impact in the forward line after losing Rankine.
On SM-G996B using...
One thing I've noticed, and maybe I'm over thinking it, but everytime Mackenzie has possession he waits until the opposition player is completely drawn to him which almost always leaves a team mate open

Surely we get him. I know a lot of people are saying essendon are interested but you it's almost guaranteed they have access to one of the big 3 as cadman will Surely go to GWS. Would they really pick Mackenzie over Tsatas, sheezel or wardlaw?
And idk about gold coast but I really don't think...
Do you think there's any chance Humphrey ends up going 4th to essendon, if he has a massive game next week? I still feel there's a slim chance sheezel falls to us especially if he under performs in the champs game.
Think there's a chance it could go something like this
North - wardlaw

It'd be really hard for him to move all the way to Adelaide, presumably by himself, at that young of an age, and on top of all that having a death in the family. It's pretty easy to see how someone could lose motivation with all that on their plate. No matter what he's gonna be drafted so I'm...
What about Munkara? I hope we consider him especially if we grab a mid like Clarke or McKenzie with our first. Not sure what happened to him the second half of the year but he showed at the start of the season he has serious talent mixed with elite athleticism, proved himself against a vfl side...
