I actually wondered if they were keen to look a the structure of 4 talls mid / fwd and how it played out - Grundy in for Reid and maybe play the other 3 tall blokes as per Sunday. Different to last year but Buckley may be thinking about given it worked yesterday.

Pretty impressive performance. Liked Game plan - they looked like they were alternating between two speeds. Slow steady controlled and then game on blitz through the middle. That balance was good. Keane - reads the play well, plays the defender role well and did some smart things in the air...

agree with those and many of the others Davo has but I must admit i really like Will Phillips.

yeah was someone who at the start of the year was expected to get drafted. Really fell away through the year and be worth a watch.

Overall my view on the draft was that it was one of the more interesting have observed. The selections from year to year at the top end tend to stay pretty solid but this year kids like Young, Serong, Flanders all slid further than what would have thought. I got their selections right but it...

Sorry mate got to this a bit late. happy with what they got?

I think there were some views around his intensity / commitment. At one point I was thinking it might be touch and go for him but rapt he got picked. He has a lot of talent.

Yeah I’m not sure to be honest. lot Of comparisons to Worpel and his draft experience for mine. Both somewhat similar types.... Worpel was a well known package whereas Jay has a lot of upside given his relative lack of exposure to others. Whether it’s the perceived issue around his foot skills...

Was blown away to be honest. I was hoping for a tall forward and ideally that we would trade up for Jones but when these boys were on the Board at the respective spots was rapt we called them. I had both Rantall and Bianco at 20-25 and to get them where we did was amazing. They were better than...

nah the word I hear is that they have put work into a couple of talls. The ones I hear (in no order) are Jones / Riccardi / Comben. I had heard that they were trying to move up to grab Jones. Having said that at that part of the draft someone could slip and they would just take them bc as per...

Yeah will be interesting - I hadnt really thought about but i suspect they may either look at some mature age players that will solve some problems areas and or players that fall and they consider worthy. Left field thought might be kids like Kaden Schreiber from Oakleigh. Ie tighten the...

Well my heart sank last night when Georgiades was read out so I guess now we hope for; Jones - still think we may need to trade up to get him Worrall - more a back than a forward Riccardi - I am really keen for him Jeka - still a bit jury out for me but has talent. Question the work rate...

Wasn’t really on my radar.

I'd have him a little different to Brown. More a natural foward crumber. Got a bit zip and goal sense about him. Brown was always an inside mid first and foremost at junior level. Daicos I think is probably more accurate but i think Mahony probably is a bit more of a ball winner whereas I still...

nah had a few games early / did knee around April and then was back in June 'ish. Think he played 10-12 for the year.

Completely agree.

Absolutely - if he gets passed Freo then I am more confident he lands at your pick than anywhere else......and he is v good. I watched Joel as a junior and this kid is every bit as good. I think your major risk would be Hawthorn (but I suspect they will trade with Swans tonight) and Port but I...

Appreciate that. I took 2 because I actually dont have much faith in Cox and he is 28 and Mihocek is 26. Beyond that we have no prospects for that section of the ground whereas we have plenty of cover in other areas. Equally I think they are different styles of players so I would get them...

Right you are. Will fix today of get a chance. Exciting night for your blokes. mail is desperate to trade up into the draft and that they are hot for Jones. Also been told albeit 2nd hand they have a keenness for Georgiades.

Its a good package but its a big call for Clubs to draft him given how little footy he has played. Having said that towards the end of the draft i reckon a few clubs could swing the bat on someone like he or Cox etc. Still would think more likely gets thru to Port as a rookie or Cat B

Interesting Koenan gets taken. He was very highly rated early in his draft year but really tapered off and missed all together. Good story.

Interesting couple of nights for us. Suspect we want to trade up but given I think hawks & Cats will trade up and Dees back a bit just not sure who will be there for us to a deal with. If giving up a future first plus maybe 35 then you would hope to get into the 13-17 range or maybe 15-18 if...

Lot of clubs interested in Sokol. Be interesting when and where he goes.

The way the bidding works is that when another clubs calls his name, Port have the right to match it. In order to match it they take him at that selection and then use their remaining picks which each have a points value to match it. Hence if he is called there you will have to take him there or...

There is a real chance. if there is no pick swaps before yours then the dangers would be Swans at 5 but I hear they are keen on more of an inside mid. I havent been able to get a sense of who they have put most work into so am a bit unsure. On talent you would think Young but on needs and...

He was a hard player to place and Essendon along with Geelong were the two I was always thinking about. I probably have a view that you have to back yourself in with Daniher and to a lesser extent Stewart, Gown and McKernan but if there isnt a lot of confidence Daniher will stay and that the...

Yeah I think so but I think he is a bit shorter. Very good prospect. Grundy had been committed to footy all the way through. Jackson has been playing a lot of basketball and for ruck prospects its a different game so when he is solely focussed the development will be massive.

Yeah I have been keen on him for years and hopefully gets a chance this year. Whether its us or not am not sure. How he fits in with Elliott would be interesting but they are the experts. I'd be really keen for them to get Pina as well.

oh ok - thats great I can slot in someone else!

Thank you
