Draft Review 2017 - Revisit the 2017 AFL draft

[GWS Goose]

I think Daniels is finally starting to get a bit of the kudos from the wider AFL community that us Giants fans have had since he first came in.
I just love him.
Our picks in the 20's in this draft of Taylor and Daniels are an outstanding result.

 

[KissKiss]

I think we end up with Brayshaw if Freo went LDU. Blues were sold on Dow and most had Raynor at 1.

Either way it would have been a win.

LDU is why you don't tank!! We had pick 1 leading into the last round - smashed Bris and ended up with pick 4.

Brayshaw was apparently Brisbane's other option at 1

 

[Ambrosia]

You would still have Brayshaw, LDU and Naughton near the top end of the re-draft.

But yeah this is turning into a great draft class. Even after 30 you have Fritch, Ballard, McCartin, Worpel, Miers, BZT, Moore, Xerri & Switkowski.

Payne, Guelfi, Miocheck, Baker, Meek all range from solid to very good as well

Im glad Brent Daniels is starting to appear on these lists.

I think he is criminally underrated.

Leads the league in Goal Assists this year.

No coincidence that when he was injured we struggled, he is huge for us.

I'd have a few different ot that, but these things are always subjective.

Simlar to Miers but Miers has done it a little longer IMO. Daniels is still rising.

Simlar to Miers but Miers has done it a little longer IMO. Daniels is still rising.

In my biased opinion, Daniels offers more than Miers (who I rate highly)

Daniels was excellent early (2019 he was top 3 for goal assists as well) but missed a lot of footy over the following 3 years (out of sight out mind) We really missed him too. Also being a Giant has him out of the limelight a bit.

Im biased, but i think he is an outstanding player.

These things are subjective, I would have him much higher than most.

At least he is on the radar now. Ive said a few times he should be on this list and this time last year, people were having none of that.

This depth in this draft is absolutely insane.

(Pick 38)

Feels criminal leaving the likes of Worpel, Fogarty, Xerri, Higgins, Rayner, Meek and Amartey in the seconds, but they're all making ground.

This draft may have the obscure note of being the strongest general forward draft ever. Moore, Daniels, Bailey, Fritsch, Ryan, Miers, Daniels, Higgins, Rayner and Switkowski are all varying measures of really good at what they do.

 

[eth-dog]

I was gonna shout at you when I saw no Guelfi, but you've just listed him in the wrong spot haha. He's been a small forward since about halfway through 2022.

Think I've posted a previously updated side before and had the same chatter. Not many wing options so I popped him there because he's played a few roles throughout the years.

Pretty incredible when you consider how at the time this draft class was considered pretty weak.

There was someone on our board who was telling us on practically a daily basis how terrible it was and how picks in the late teens I think it was would be like picking in the rookie draft in other years!

 

[BRider]

Xerri is Team 1 over TDK

 

[AFLQLD]

Brisbane now have four premiership players from this draft: Rayner, Bailey, Starcevich and Payne.
