Lol seriously can we just have a ban on posting things ol clickbait Kornes says…

none of it is interesting and it’s all designed to just stir people up.

Hodgey wants a new rule! Hodgey gets a new rule.

No more clickbait shit from Cornes in here.


Also:
Can we also threadban Rendell quotes. The bloke is senile.
Done ✔️
 
Does anyone have numbers on Nasiah Wanganeen-Milera athletic abilities. ?
His highlights show a competition that is decidedly slow and him being better than less than VFL players.

Can't find any, he didn't test at the combine. eDPS might have something?

Nothing, the AFL have been Stingy Stevens with testing data this year. Although I think his athletic traits speak for themselves in game.
 
I am now of the opinion, if we can't land one of the X-Factor players in

Rachelle, Andrew or Callaghan, we should strongly consider splitting the pick.

Anything that keeps us in the range of Ward, Hobbs, Erasmus, Johnson, Sinn, NWM

but nets us some extra assets could be worth it

I completely concur...But who is said club that is happy to move up? Freo 6 or 8 & 19 unlikely.. Tigers 7 & 15...no 7 & mid 20's potentially.. GC's choice between Mac and Gibcus looks key if GWS are now set for Callaghan and Crows look likely for Rachelle unless they trade down. If Mac is available at our pick I hope we take him.
 
Who would be the player we trade a future 1st for if they’re still on the board at Freos first or second pick?
Assuming we take one of Ward / Hobbs at 5, then I'd trade a F1st for:

Sinn
Rochelle (if we end up drafting him, I'll learn to spell his name)
Andrew

I'd try for:

Freo Pick 8 + Pick 19 + F4th for HFC Pick 24 + F1st + F3rd

We end with 5 + 8 + 19 + 21
 
Technically, we’re losing currency trading back into this draft. Current or live selections come at a premium cost; teams aren’t giving away an adjacent pick, or like for like pick across the two drafts i.e Pick 8 in 2022 for pick 8 in 2021. It’s much more likely to be Pick 8 for perhaps Pick 16. Moreover, a club needs an enticing offer to give up their valued selection.

Ward and Sinn would be an epic haul.

Would be tempted with NWM, Sinn, Amiss, Erasmus, Rachele, Johnson but probably not enough to trade out of a KPP heavy top end draft.

I won’t be surprised if it’s Gibcus. The way he moves is special.

Every time I hear Gibcus I think of Jim Carrey's character in The Mask 'Stanley Ipkiss'

If we end up drafting him and he turns it over then I will be forced to say 'nice one Ipkiss' 😂

Or Andrew. Or Sinn. All have elite athletic attributes, can play footy and good characters. All guys if developed can win you finals. Really interested to see which way we go. Given selection of Day and Seamus expect we’ll go with higher risk/reward.
 
New road to the draft podcast had some interesting comments. Twomey said he is getting the feeling from clubs that GWS now take Callaghan and that Gold Coast could lean towards Andrew if he is there. With Hawthorn he suggested the talk is midfielder with Matt Johnson still being mentioned in that Hawthorn have done plenty of work on him. Ward also the other spoken about
