Resource 2019 Draft Watch (we have picks 6 24 25 39 46)

[Mutineer]

For those in the know, how do the first rd KPP options next year compare with McAsey, Worrell and DeKoning?

Does this influence our decision at 6?

Surely there are great mids again next year and we go for the KPP while he is there

Doesn't look to be a great year for talls again in 2020, Some I've I liked the look of are Riley Thilthorpe S.A., Jamarra Ugle-Hagan Vic Country [Bulldogs Academy], Denver Grainger-Barass W.A., Nikolas Cox Vic Metro, Jackson Callow TAS, Josh Treacy Vic Country but they look pretty thin on the ground to me.

That's part of the reason I'd like to draft Charlie Comben this year and develop him as a Key Forward going forward.

 

[Golumless]

Not willing to call that yet, Gooch was having a damn fine Showdown before being knocked out..... then dropped and not seen again for the year.

FWIW I wanted Berry too.

Plus those couple of ridiculously high damage games against Melbourne, and Brisbane (I think?). Should have been a walk up start once he was good to go post showdown, but lost out against a coaching staff desperately trying to save their job.

He'll probably be the first litmus test for Nicks. There is definitely a high impact, albeit probably destined to be in the bottom end of our midfield rotations player there. See if he can coax it out of him.

If he can find the pill 15-18 times and get his 1.5 goals a game he becomes vital.

 

[Squiba]

And your account will go the way of Kristof's?

This really should happen.

We pass on Stephens, and Faith should shut down.

He has been a complete knob for months on end, proven to be a fraud time and time again. Presses Kristof constantly for questioning the draft value of a small forward.

Time for old mate to put up or shut up.

The one other thing I'd love to see reappear is the tackle numbers. Was a tackling machine first year in the SANFL, but hasn't surfaced since.

So better to grab McAsey this year while we can in an even draft and get a mid with our "top 5" next year?

 

[Elite Crow]

What time does the actual draft start, not the predraft bullshit? I’ve got a commitment at 7.30 on Wednesday night

I wonder if Gaucc can play a back pocket role.

He has a great lea, speed and strength so might be able to win 1 on 1s, us it could help him to find the ball a bit...just a thought, don't go too hard on the idea

And Charlie Comben and develop him as an athletic key Forward looking to the future, big upside this lad.

I'm going from Syd to Melb landing at 6 Melb time. 45mins from the airport and 15 to check in

I hope i make to the hotel in time for the (free) Fox coverge of the live picks...now I am expecting a flight delay.

Nothing worse than reading about it online. The disappointment won't be quite the same when we take O'Neill at 6

So you're on the McA train too now?

Still, is Young is there at 6 that'll be a sliding doors moment

Who does he play like?

Good gands drom the highlights. Doesn't look overly mobile from the 45s I've seen

Great idea. We should expect those that constantly defend the club to close their accounts if the AFC doesn't win the 2020 premiership.

 

[Crow_68]

For the second year Port has trumped us at the trade table to get more top 20 picks than us. That sucks as I know the bastards are going to get Gould.

And gave up a promising young KPP and a 2020 first to ‘trump’ us.

If we gave up a Fogarty and our 2020 first, it’s likely we would have ‘trumped’ them.

Their KPP stocks are about to become thin in a hurry.

Should have kept pick 49!

They're saying a Rookie Pick

Isn't the 2020 draft heavily compromised?

Haven't we done this before?

 

[1990crow]

Wish there was a way to get McAsey and Stephens.

 

[Brett Cummings]

why do some people keep saying mcasey at pick 6? you guys are clearly targeting needs when hamish has said we dont place needs in front of talent in the draft. no way mcasey is ahead of young, ash or serong in talent.

 

[Mutineer]

Ash has always been my "train" from the start of the year but it looks like he'll be finding a home somewhere else now.

I'm completely fine with any of Ash, Young, McAsey, Serong, Robertson, Flanders or Stephens....if it comes from outside that group I might need some convincing like the Gallucci selection.

Really we look to have have so many good options nobody should be too disappointed who we land.

 

[hey shorty]

Correct but we are on the good side of the FS and NGA argument this time.

I'm not sure Port will get Gould either, but they might get Day or Pickett.

The sheep follow the media train.

Add Jackson to the list for me too. Not sure on Robertson but all faith (not that FAITH) in Haggis

We’ll get Gould at 22/23 IMO
