1st round draft pick 2010

[paran]

Still liking Polec - picks up the ball below the knees at speed and makes it look easy. Doesn't look like getting caught on the run. Favours left a bit too much, and needs to work on goal kicking, but you can't teach his speed and flair. Smith looks very good too, but I believe Polec would suit Subi well.

Still don't have footage of Heppell in midfield.

Here's Heppell footage

He also has abit of Pendelbury in him.

Polec reminds a bit of Brennan.

Of the Jared variety.

 

[ajsuperstar]

heppell is an absolute star, would be all over him if i were you guys

Sounds like a gun utility. Can play inside and outside the square. Has a long accurate left foot, finds space and kicks goals. Not allot more you could want but for perhaps elite pace.

 

[Darkness Falls]

at this point, i am torn between heppell, smith and polec. i guess we will see their draft combine results to decide.

 

[Eastern Rangers]

Luke Mitchell tested at 198cm. Kicked 5 goals in the TAC final and a real chance he will be around at pick 28.

 

[PRANKSTER666]

Bennell pulled up sore and won't be testing today.

Neither will Polec and Darling.

 

[Prem87]

Surely we must have om Lynch in our calculations with 4, formerly listed as 196cm now is 199cm.

 

[Lyyynnnchy]

Hrmmm Geelong to get a pick between us and GC's now Ablett has gone?

 

[mitchzz]

Joel Wilkinson a chance for pick 26/28/44?

Broke the sprint record at draft camp and looks to be a pretty good type, also judging by his interview seems to be a very good character.

[PRANKSTER666]

Gaff in the top 10 for the 20m sprint which is good to see.

 

[mitchzz]

Gaff 2.88 second sprint! :O :O

I'm pretty sure that the compo picks can't be used ahead of any concession picks.

So unless the Cats want to use their compensation picks straight after the last GC first round pick they will need to save them for later.

Here's hoping this is the case.

 

[PRANKSTER666]

Gaff 2.88 second sprint! :O :O

He's a pure footballer, with a strong work rate and will no doubt be a very good player.

Also think he will do very well in the kicking/handballing tests.

And will smash the beep test.

 

[SHURN]

So far Brodie Smith quickest over 5m - 1.20secs

 

[Barnzy]

Yeah this kid seems to have huge upside perhaps just behing Day. Forget about Darling, I'd go for Lynch if you want a KPF.

Also keeping hearing Richmond have been hot on Heppell for 2 years and will 100% pick him if he falls to pick #6. Here's hoping he does and you guys don't pick him.

I'm a fan at pick 28. Should still be there. Then hopefully lamb or andreoli at 26.

Then a big ? at pick 4. Heppell? Gaff? Polec? Smith? Atley? Lynch?

pick 4 is useless this year. pick 10 is basically the same i can't seperate the players from 4-10

 

[mitchzz]

I literally have no idea who I want between Atley, Smith, Gaff, Polec, Heppell and now Lynch.

 

[Mattman93]

Neither. I trust that we'll go with the best option though.

 

[WCE_phil]

Neither. I trust that we'll go with the best option though.

Lynch is growing on me a lot. Really hoping we can pick up another pick between 25-30. The more time goes by the more heppell seems like a west coast type of pickup. In saying that though if we do go tall i think lynch is now the pick of the crop. Gee has he grown. If we can pick up a pick at just say for reference sake 30 for mckinley.

4 Heppell/Lynch
26 Lamb
28 Mitchell
30 cripps/andreoli/conca

 

[wcesam]

I'd say Smith but it's a bit risky when you look at our needs. Not a pure outside midfielder, nor an elite kick, but could be a real gamechanging linebreaker..

 

[ajsuperstar]

Bennell pulled up sore and won't be testing today.

Neither will Polec and Darling.

how you can pull up sore from height and weight testing and vertical leap?

 

[wceblog]

So far Brodie Smith quickest over 5m - 1.20secs

10th slowest actually - AFL got the order mixed up.

 

[WCE_phil]

10th slowest actually - AFL got the order mixed up.

so 10th slowest over 5 metres. Thats not judd like at all

Overhyped imo and not worth a top 10 pick.
