Preview 2019 Draft General Discussion

[Browny123]

Ok, so we have identified the Tasmanian kid we will pick up, what Geelong Falcons and half back flankers will Hamish draft for the Crows next year?

Mitch O’Neill?

 

[Cleric]

Mitch O’Neill?

Yep

 

[Browny123]

Yep

Why do you think that

 

[Cleric]

Why do you think that

Hamish is Tasmanian. He has a soft spot for Tassie kids.

 

[Browny123]

Who would be the top 5 prospects going into 2019?

 

[Blood red]

If you want to get an overview of all the northern academy players (bar Budarick, Green who didn't play due to allies, here is a link of a game played in July

U17 Future Queensland v NSW / ACT

South Australia v Vic Country

Western Australia v Vic Metro

Thanks.

Thanks.

That’s the only link I have . Don’t think the others were recorded. Would be interesting if someone could review the games and point out the players they think have potential

I think the nsw vs qld games aren't too flash because they are made up of a core of very good players, but then seem to drop off.
So even those players who have been touted as prospects can't shine.
The other issue is that both team's mids close each other down so well, most disposals are rushed.
When both teams played the victorian teams later in the year, both mids had much cleaner ball, although they both lost, the top players where able to show their stuff.

I'm interested how you came up with your list? Most hype where, and with whom?

One (i.e me) would imagine Noah Anderson would have to be at the top of the list, not sitting in third. Thomson Dow would have to be in the top 20. And 31 Sladojevic and 50 Wischnat need to be spelt correctly.

Also the hype for Taheny seems to have dissipated somewhat, especially with him not make the Australian U18 to play the Casey Demons in 2 weeks time.

Don't get why you want to a troll just for a single word hype .

I'm not trolling. I'm asking how he came up with his list based on hype for the various kids?

As far as I'm aware, Twomey for AFL.com and Balmer for Fox Footy have each done a preseason article on some of the kids to watch out for. Otherwise it's mainly just AFL Draft Central writers talking about the kids on the their website and here. Or it's just been BF posters and Knightmare posting here.

There's not been too much actually hype except for Noah Anderson's start to the season. And a bit for one of Sydneys under age kids.

Just a guide, mainly selected from the all Australian squad and the academy and TAC cup squads of the week. Am sure the placings could be redone but nearly everyone of those kids starred on the weekend.

From your own academy I could see players like Griffiths , Jeffery, Reville or Tozer could be in this list within a month. Plus there are WA or SA kids we don’t really know about yet. It would be worth someone taking this list and redoing it over the next couple of weeks to update it till the draft

Taheny certainly going very nicely for Norwood atm, prob a fair chance to make his league SANFL debut very soon.

Almost madness he isn't in that squad, comfortably the best talent from SA

 

[BigDance]

Jeremy sharp debuted for East Freo WAFL league and although the team got pumped, he was more than serviceable on the wing.

Ryan Sturgess and Sam Philip must come to AFL attention. Cracking footballers and cracking kids. Sturgess has been talked about and Philp a real smoky.

Finn Maginness was just BOG against an Oakleigh midfield with Rowell and Anderson, I'd reckon he might be creating a slight bit of hype.

Will he play Swans this week or will he be elsewhere too?
