West Coast would be pissed if a club took Ginbey before them.

Did they not trade down thinking he would still be there?

Is Ginbey at flight risk?

Yes, they traded back believing he would be available.

They did. I wonder if they're telling him to tank his interviews. Like the Dons are with Munkara.

Ginbey


Or

The poo



Ginbey for mine. Kid's an animal

I know it is just highlights but I'd take either of these two before MacKenzie.

Surely Geelong can list Ashcroft by not even using a draft pick given he supports them.

Geelong should be outraged.

Agree off the highlights Ginbey breaks and has speed. The Poo has aerial presence and huge upside.
Watched some of Clark and he is a competitor who based off the videos I’ve seen I would take before Mackenzie as well.
Mackenzie has a lot of handballs and dinky kicks.
In saying that I’ll back the club in on whomever they select.

 

[The German Hunter]

I’m all aboard Ginbey and Darcy Jones with our 2nd. They already have chemistry.

If no one drops out of the top 5 I strongly believe we will take Jhye Clark.

 

[RIOLINWITPUNCHS]

I wonder how early a bid on Davey Essendon would match.

Let's bid on him at #7 and see what happens I say.

 

[VandoHawk]

North Melbourne just acquired Pick 23 from Adelaide. I think this is a good thing because after picking Sheezel/Wardlaw they’d be more likely to target a key position player (Keeler) or a running half-back (Cowan).

Burgiel and Jones are my favourites for our second.

Ginbey's highlights remind me of Oliver in his draft year. Was an absolute beast and no wonder he bolted up.

If Keeler or Hayes are on the board at Pick 23 we'd hope they'd fall to us

I like Hayes but think he will be gone to Collingwood or GWS by then. Keeler I don't think will make it as a tall forward at AFL level, very timid.

 

[FB19]

Where is our pick 41 or thereabouts?

He has adjusted for the picks consumed through matching f/s bids. I.e 22,34,35 36 etc

 

[FB19]

If we take Mackenzie with 6 and George is there at 24 I think it will take about 7 seconds to hear them read out his name.

 

[Pinoy Hawk]

Pick 40 , Jakob Ryan is assigned to Geelong in his mock draft the other day. Looks like he has updated his post and has correctly assigned pick 40 to the Hawks.

 

[Strapping Young Lad]

Can’t see George slipping to 24. Giants are very keen and they have 3 shots at grabbing him before we get a second look at the draft.

 

[Pinoy Hawk]

George is a big risk(because of injury) , big reward pick.
Could have been an easier decision if we got a pick 19 or a pick 25 from the recent trade period.
But what the heck, I agree with you that if we pick Cam at pick 6/7, then we should pick George if available at our 2nd pick.

Mackenzie is leaps and bounds above those two.

Will he last until #24 in a shallow draft?

We might be scarred from the last 174cm player we took with a pick in the 20's .

He was 173cm and slower than a lot of ruckmen , but we took him at # 22 ( Josh Dunkley was #25 ) .

I had a look at who has picks before us... If we wanted him West coast would be a danger at 20 and GWS at 18 or 19.

North won't be a threat at 23 because they are taking two smalls early. Who knows what's happening with essendons pick. Bulldogs took Arthur Jones last year who is a very very similar type so I doubt they look at him with 21.

It's likely he will be available for us if we wanted him but you never know. Only takes one club to like him. Similar to aleer and Sheldrick last year.

If he was a standard height and weight for a mid he goes top 10 imo.

 

[MasterSamurai]

Pretty dumb I know just to judge on short highlight packages but not sold on Ginbey reminds me a bit of a Mitch Robinson type takes the ball on his chest and seems would be good at under 18 level based on size alone. Phillipou highlights seem a class above takes the ball clean out in front and can kick. I'd take class over grunt everytime picking 18 year olds

Well that's exactly the player I thought of . Mitch Robinson and nearly chucked up!
