Mega Thread 2021 Draft

[Lore]

Hey guys, scuse the intrusion. Thought you might like to have this resource on your board (mods might like to sticky):

 

[Ford Fairlane]

Adelaide get Sinn and Goater. I see their wet dreams department is still employed at the Advertiser.

 

[RussellEbertHandball]

Arlo Draper - where his folks fans of Arlo Guthrie?? A very old fashioned name.

 

[rumoursofwinter]

If we pick Roberts and Sonsie goes to Sydney I will explode

I'd be happy with Goater, Sonsie or Chesser with that pick instead of Roberts.

 

[robbo1981]

I've been keen on Roberts for most of the yr but starting to think we need an explosive mid more if possible.
Would definitely take Roberts before any flankers but.

 

[FightForYourRight]

Don't mind Roberts.

 

[charcolechaddy]

Arlo Draper - where his folks fans of Arlo Guthrie?? A very old fashioned name.

poms I reckon, younger brother is a Sid.

 

[charcolechaddy]

We need a Arlo/Goater more than a Roberts.

Big fans of uk sitcom, ‘Arlo ‘Arlo.

Come in peace, shot to kill captain.

Our board is doing a mock draft and I’ve got Port.

Can you tell more about the father sons and what bids you guys would match?

i don’t think Tex Wanganeen is a consideration at this point. Burgoyne is interesting as there is talk he won’t nominate us. With a bid for him likely coming between our first pick and our picks in the 60’s, I think we’ll match the bid. It’s likely to come somewhere in the realm of 35-60 but it all depends on if he dominates us or not.

How much under 18’s footy do you guys watch? I’ve literally not seen any of the names being thrown around play, not even once.

That's probably because more than half the people named haven't played football in 6 months.

Roberts looks ok if a little vanilla . I’d go Milera Wanganeen before him though personally or a more dynamic ball magnet midfielder, maybe Draper but I haven’t seen enough , like Luke Beeken from the Eagles for a late pick

 

[Long live PAFC]

Medium defenders are the last thing we need.

agree with our first pick, although I’ve come round to Sinn for the midfield potential.

but for late picks - these are the players most likely to make it. We aren’t going to be able to build quality ruck, KPP, small forward or elite midfield depth in this draft with picks in the 50-70 range.

Vanilla haha he would fit in well with all the other pussy boys who don’t show up when the going gets tuff.
Just what we don’t need.

Big ooft. Sorry I misunderstood the Ladhams trade deal!
I shouldn’t post before 7am

No, you should be out plowing driveways.

 

[Honeyboy Wilson]

Here's some footage of Goater for those interested. Not a great display for skills, but if you're looking to be impressed by breakaway speed for a tall midfielder...

That and I don’t watch any under 18 games.

I like him a lot, but we will have to teach him how to kick! Awful, awful, kick of the football.

 

[EskimoPAFC]

I'm always suss when I see mock drafts have us pick the South Australian around our pick. Often I think its just a writer who doesn't know Port being lazy. Generally we pick best available, no matter where they are from.

If that's Roberts, its Roberts and I'll back our drafting team because they get a lot right, but I'm reading nothing in to it.

What a shocking kick if that’s the highlights I hate to see the lowlights.

 

[EskimoPAFC]

Yeah the big question on Goater for me is whether he is an athlete or a footballer.
