Preview 2019 Draft General Discussion

[HedgeFund]

Who are the early number 1 pick contenders?
Is Rowell up there?

He is the nominal #1 at this stage.

BOG in the u17 All Stars. BOG in the TAC grand final.

No doubt he is “the one to catch”.

Not me. As far as I’m concerned it’s a waste of time 13 months out, but others will no doubt want to have a crack.

Wash your mouth out, don't come on here and try to talk common sense!

 

[samthemanlonergan]

Any idea when the BigFooty phantom draft will get underway now that trade period is over?

 

[Browny123]

Who are the early number 1 pick contenders?
Is Rowell up there?

I would say Rowell Anderson O’Neill

 

[Davo-27]

I would say Rowell Anderson O’Neill

i think Rowell and O'Neill are the top 2 imo, they have gone ahead of Anderson at this stage, based on O'Neill's high performance for the Allies at the championships and Rowell's good form at the champs and high performance at TAC Cup Finals, including huge GF and the u/17's performance of the 2 even though O'Neill was carrying an injury, Anderson and a few others are behind those 2 going into next season i would think.

Watts 1st and Byrnes 3nd in the SDFC BNF.
Still interesting both couldn't get a gig in the Futures.

Quite often a big difference between B&F voting and those with genuine AFL attributes. Not saying either of these boys aren't future AFL players. Futures games and AFL Academies are picked in consultation with the AFL clubs, often resulting in some BF favourites being left out.

From all reports, the State Academies are to be announced in the next day or two, which will no doubt create some debate and result in some reshuffling of 2019 mock drafts.

Another Walsh, Dow and De Koning in next year's draft. #brothers

Mitch Martin a little unlucky or am I a poor judge?

A few unlucky kids for Metro with most on the shorter side or are mostly forward/mids. D’Intinosante was a standout for the Knights this year but his height and lack of pure speed would have cost him.

 

[Bicks]

Another Walsh, Dow and De Koning in next year's draft. #brothers

And young Henry Walsh is 200cm, Ripley's believe it or not! Towers over Sam and his old man.

 

[Danger in Texas]

Walsh is 2002, but still fair point

Henry Walsh is 200cm it seems

Edit: Goddamnit Bicks

 

[RedmanWasHere]

200cm and born in 2002.

Staggering.

2 bottom age B&F winners miss out in Watts and Dintinosante, seemed a bit stiff on face value. DPS, are you aware of the deficiencies in Watts' game?

Watts is a big body and uses it to his advantage and is a good mark but he looks to lack athleticism from what i saw.

 

[Chaisa]

Wow, that's a ridiculous difference given the age gap is only two years.

 

[Blood red]

Who is selecting the Allies squad the AFL or the clubs putting forward players. A lot of underage players and boys with long term injuries in there

Looking at ommissions due to injury and missing nationals, I would assume the afl!

 

[InsideMid33]

Indigenous draft prospects that are in NGA programs or that have played state 17s this year?
