If Reid slides we would be silly not to pick him. Would complement Sanders nicely.
If a slider doesn’t make it to our pick I am hoping for Hannaford would be great in our forward line. Haynes or Datoli would be an ok if all the quick small forward options are off the board. Both have...
Not keen on Hotton or Hynes but like all the other names listed. Feel like we can get some quality players at our picks. Think Hannaford and Datoli in particular would be good additions to our front half.

Cost would be high and it is an even draft. I would rather the club have a crack with the picks we have. Fill some needs with players like Hannaford, Datoli, Moraes, Oliver and Gross.

So out is smith, CD, Jacko, Bedendo and Rypstra.
In Kennedy, 17, 25 plus our picks 35 and 47
What happens to Keath?

Wow Hannaford is the pick for me. Fingers crossed he is available at our pick. Who are some options for pick 32?

There are heaps of players to do ACLs some bounce back, some change the way they play and some never get back to previous form.
Lever, Trac, Gawn, Libba (both), Clay, Alex Johnson, Rayner, Ashcroft, Menzel, Zac Williams, David Schwartz, Lachie Weller, Brayden George.
Who knows if Hotton...
Some players like Toby McLean and Menzel never get back to pre injury form as it affects the way they play and their strengths. Both still played games but it certainly affected their output. Some players like Libba aren’t as affected as their game style is not reliant on speed, leap and...
I know Hotton is highly talented but I would not spend a first on someone recovering from an ACL. Who knows how it will affect his speed and agility. I think Hannaford can be that burst mid eventually.
I feel like you can get mids later in the draft. Particularly in this draft. Swans have done...
Hannaford is exactly what we need. Competitive, quick, good tackler and sharp in front of the sticks. Happily spend a first rounder on him. Can play multiple positions as well. Best case burst mid worst case pressure forward. What are the knocks on him?

So if Smith goes to Hawks pick 7 looks like the pick we would target. Cats first pick is 16 and they would need to throw in a 2025 1st as well. Pies first pick is 27. Really hope he doesn’t nominate them. I think he is gone so hoping for Hawks.
If Lobb goes it would be between Saints, Dees and...
I think the biggest problem is our forward structure. We need to play selfless footy in the front. I feel like Naughty and Weightman in particular are always flying for marks when someone else is in a better position to mark the ball. Block and run decoy leads. Or just lead to lanes to move...
Looking at our midfield and our lack of a defensive midfielder/tagger/run with player. Do you think Harmes can fill this role? Biggest question is will Bev play someone in this role?
Unless he plays this role I can’t see him getting a game in our current midfield rotation.
Looks like we will get pick 10 or 11. Assuming that if we do make finals we lose week 1. Will that be low enough to get under the Croft bid?
Reckon we need to trade up for sure after last night.

Yeah he could fill that role he needs to work on composure and decision making reckon a block in the VFL would help. We certainly need depth and options in this area so Duryea is pushed out of that position next year

What happens if he is injured, is just not good enough to take the next step or takes a while to adequately learn the AFL systems? Might need 10 games from Duryea.

Who is taking Duryea spot? Cleary is not a lock down defender. O’Brien is an intercept defender which we don’t have many on our list. Bruce is out for the year or will be delisted. We need mature coverage as we all know it is unlikely Keath and Jones play full seasons. O’Donnell has shown great...
Well if we lose to cats we will probably finish 11th which gives us pick 8. Should be able to draft a decent player before the Croft bid

Lobb also plays high game time so he also allows the coaches to use more rotations on the runners which helps them run out the game better. Khamis and Darcy don’t have the same level of endurance as Lobb

Geelong have a different strategy to us as they are a destination club. Last year they traded in Bowes, Bruhn and Henry. Drafted Clark and Foster through the national draft and Riccardi and Murdoch through the rookie. They then added two via cat B rookies in Clohesy and Mullin. Geelong always...
It 100% is a question of who you cut in 2024. List management requires forward thinking and planning. If you cut too deep in one year you end up with no one to cut the next. Draftees get two year contracts so can’t cut them in 2024. The rest of the list you wanted to keep and or are contracted...
