Maybe they'll go backwards again. That was fun.
l believe Tsatas has question marks on his ball use, not convinced on him at all.
If Philipou is gone, l rate Hewitt above Hollands & Tsatas.

Hey mate, we have 4 list spots open but only 3 picks inside the top 50. I reckon if we split pick 10 into two picks in the late teens we'll take 4 picks in the draft, but if we keep our current setup we'd take 3 in the draft plus an DFA/SSP recruit.
I think a lot of us on this board see us having similar list needs, but just not to the same extent or required at urgency. Personally I think the most pressing list needs are an outside mid, KPF, KPD and medium forward (in that order).

I've had a small look at the Youtube highlights of Keeler, Barnett, Foster and Lemmy (all similar types). Who do yourself, Arr0w and any other of our keen junior observers believe we should take if the opportunity presented?
Keeler looked big and cumbersome, only showed a very short example of Foster deep in the goalsquare, Lemmy looked great at ground level and Barnett crashed packs for big marks and rucked well.

If Phillipou does make it to our pick, I'd still like to improve our draft hand in some way. I'd love a chance draft Allan somehow, and then Van Es with a later pick. I might even prefer two of Allan, Hewitt and Barnett (for example) over Philipou, if we traded down. I fear what might be left over by our second selection as it stands, particularly if we just followed some rigid notion of who would be 'best available'.Easy - Phillipou if available, otherwise trade pick 10 to GWS or Sydney - Simples

Who did Pommy have us taking in his phantom draft?

I don't know about Lemmey, I just think he might fail the 'footy IQ/personality' test.

Sorry Ash. I understand that’s Pommy picks but aren’t we using one of the 4 picks on upgrading Owies to the senior list? Or is that outside the 4 picks

Those players are good get, but I feel the trade is poor for CFC 11&30 for GWS 19&20, is too low - we are taking too much risks, both Hollands & Hotton could have gone by #19
Yeah, the points may be similar, but it’s a no from me. I would take 16&20 though
If phillipou is gone a trade back of hewett and george would be ideal, i know he's done an acl but the kids a jet.
I've read a few different boards talking about getting George, makes me think he may go earlier than predicted.

Yeah was situation based that trade. Usually if I was the list manager I would have tried to put a premium on 11. But with my earlier than planned play Phillpou been off the board, and looking at the gap from 11 to gws I wagered the 10 picks earlier 2nd would have a greater impact over taken 8 picks later 11.
So i wagered Holland's Hewett would fall in that scenario based on the open list needs of 13 to 16, worked out on the end. Was reluctant to trade a future first based on my board for 23 has KP players 15 to 25 so figured that maybe of use once we ascertain the durability of our own back up there. Was a good fun exercise. But tried to be realistic if it was me I would take Humphrey but I don't feel Carlton are into him personally. But when I did that trade I had Hewett/Holland's/Cowan and Hotton/George/Clarke pencilled in to finish it off. So feel them 2 combos still would be better than 11 and 29
Hope that explains my pomlogic

Keeler is the classic boom or bust type. His ceiling is peak Paddy Ryder, his basement is a weekend champion up the bush who doesn’t work during the week.
Barnett is ruck first, but certainly has the capability of playing key position at either end. Has the profile to be a star, but we really are not in the market for a ruck and would largely be wasted as a KPP.
Lemmey, I won’t write off, but doesn’t seem combative enough. If forced to judge, I would consider a Schache type, who could eventually play a role at the level, but unlikely to be a gun.
Foster is absolutely on my radar. Hasn’t had the press of others, but his performances in the carnival were admirable. Played more as a KPF at SANFL colts level. Got his chance in the first championships game when Barnett had Covid. Rather than push Keeler to a prime ruck role, Foster was asked to play number one ruck, a foreign role. He played admirably. Under sized, his leap allowed him to get the better of the ruck contest. Competitive, not dominant around the ground, he took a good share of grabs, and was not outdone. The fact that he is also prepared to get down and dirty at ground level with some very tenacious efforts was the sealer for me. In racing terms, he is a big, leggy early three year old, just growing in to his frame. May grow taller than the 197cm he is at the moment.
I am not saying Foster will be a superstar. I do suggest he can be a very valuable list piece. I am assessing that our list does not need another gun key forward at the top level. We need a bankable, combative young player to provide a target in the twos and develop in to an AFL quality back up. I see that with Foster. He does not have the hype of Lemmey or Scully out if the SA system, but consistently kicked multiple goals as a key forward target. The bonus that I see is his ability to ruck to a decent standard. Pitto is still our no.1 ruck, but we are all hoping TDK goes to that next level to usurp him in coming seasons. Having a player I see Foster becoming to assume a second ruck, third tall forward role would be a dream for mine. Let us say the Levi replacement many want to appear out of thin air. The best way to get that player is to develop him.
I mentioned Foster’s willingness to compete at ground level. He presents around the ground, and there is plenty to suggest he could become a defensive option as well. He perhaps doesn’t have the athleticism to be a star, but a genuine swingman who can ruck is a very valuable commodity.
Cheers.
That’s a solid return. Would be interested to see the full draft printed out if anyone can be bothered or show me where.
I was going to bag Van Es, but had another look at his highlights first. There’s a lot to work with there.
Scully is a solid ruck/fwd project at that selection.
Hollands and Hotton are two ‘H’s but I’m still meh on both. Anyone print out the Top 20…….please.
Uneducated opinion of a couch surfer with his ipad. Keeler (Huge bust potential), Barnett (Best player of group. Would take from 15 and beyond), Foster (Pick 35-50), Lemmey (Could be anything - massive boom IMO. Arrow says there’s more to him though). In order - Barnett, Lemmey, Foster, Keeler. My 2 bob.

Got a bit cold on Busslinger myself,for some reason I could see is taking Hotton at 10 (although I prefer Hollands, Phillpou or Humphrey if still available)
I have no inside mail or intel, just a gut feeling/hunch.

My gut feel is we draft hollands at 11 and then get a pick in the teens and draft Hotton
Double H combo would be really good for an average draft
Double H combo would be really good for an average draft
Hotton would be a reach at 10, can only see us taking him if we spilt our pick for two later 1st rounders, we already have Motlop & Durdin as small forwards with significant upside.
Busslinger will be very good wherever he ends up most likely West Coast, but would not surprise if he goes earlier.
Thank you uncle pommy
