i did this on Monday

1. Harley Reid - Bend - 185cm - absolute star, can play in all positions, can negate Nick Watson, outmark Lewis Hayes in the goal square, does everything

3. Daniel Curtin - Clare - 195cm - star defender, won the best on in the u17's
4. Nate Caddy - North - 190cm - marking forward, might need work on goal kicking, but is a dangerous forward

6. Koltyn Tholstrup - Subi - 188cm - skillful forward who can also find it in the midfield, beautiful strong mark too
7. Jack Delean - Sth Adel - 181cm - good mark for his size and can also be a dangerous forward
8. Zane Duursma - Gipps - 188cm - forward/midfielder, Vic Country would have loved his goal kicking skills in the u18 champs decider
9. Nathan Philactides - Oak - 180cm - tough uncompromising defender
10. Ashton Moir - Glenlg - 186cm - skillful forward with a nice ability to take pack marks and a mark on a lead
11. Koen Sanchez - Est Frem - 176cm - skillful midfielder who went forward at the champs and looked good there
12. Jake Rogers - GCS A - 172cm - speedy small midfielder, quality player, was a sensation for GCS A iagainst the NAB League and starred for the Allies in the champs imo
13. Archer Reid - Gipps - 201cm - tall forward, tore it up at the Vic Trials, but didnt have the best champs, can turn it on every now and then

17. Will Lorenz - Oak - 186cm - quality smooth midfielder, grandson of Hawks Legend Graham Arthur
18. Logan Morris - West - 192cm - quality FF for the Jets, surprised he didnt get more opportunity at the state level
19. Luamon Lual - GWV - 181cm - was a real difference maker in the Trials, not sure why he didnt get into the champs squad, but he looks the goods
20. Colby McKercher - Tas - 181cm - a really talented winger who i would like to see if he can play more midfield next season
21. Chad Reschke - Sturt - 187cm - leads all day, a bit chunky but has surprising speed on the lead, good strong mark as well, kicked 68 goals in u18 this yr
22. Alex Molan - GWV - 177cm - dynamic flanker/midfielder, always in the play and nearly always does something good with the footy
23. Sam Frangalas - Dand - 187cm - big strong midfielder/flanker, needs to find his position and dominate
24. George Stevens - GWV - 190cm - did an ACL i believe last year, but was fantastic prior to injury
25. Mitch Edwards - Peel - 196cm - quality tall in this draft, because of the lack of high end talls could go earlier, but theres so many quality sml/med forwards in this draft

27. Oliver Badr - Oak - 177cm - good solid midfielder, has played well but could drop down the order if he doesnt show improvement
28. Will McCabe - Cent Dist - 196cm - quick and courageous tall forward/defender, need to see more but the potential is high and could go 1st/2nd rd?
29. Darcy Weeks - West - 178cm - solid inside midfielder, he and Lorenz + B.Wilson impressed me in a game a month or so ago, tough inside mid red head
30. Clay Hall - Peel - 189cm - hard working midfielder, just goes all game, good natural endurance it seems

31. Will Patton - West Adel - 191cm - solid defender from SA
32. Billy Wilson - Dand - 181cm - another quality outside type from dandenong, he Lorenz and Weeks really put their names up a few weeks ago
33. Michael Rudd - Geel - 191cm - another good marking medium forward this time from Geelong

38. Ryley Sanders - Sand/Tas - 185cm - has potential to be top 20, but hasnt put it all together just yet
39. Riley Weatherill - Eastern - 195cm - tall forward with a good amount of talent another to impress at the Vic Trials in Werribee

other talented players to keep an eye on in 2023


Xavier Walsh, Cam Nyko, James Lugsdin, Kynan Brown, Mahmoud Taha, Darcy Wilson, Kobe Shipp, Cooper Simpson, Jack Callinan, Diesel Moloney, Harvey Thomas, Charlie Hillier (Patrick Weckert + Riak Andrew + Coen Livingstone ?)

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
its an old list, i didnt really update it much but to put Reschke in there and add a few notes on players and heights ect, Jack Callinan should be added and be in the 20's somewhere i think, Kobe Shipp also showed a bit in the u17's game on gf day.

If can acquire pick 16 in the Mitchell trade, I wonder if Jefferson would still be available and off interest to us?

Best available mid at our first pick and Big Jeff at our second makes sense from a list management perspective.

Wardlaw
Sheezel
Cadman
Tsatas
Mackenzie
Clark
Humphrey
Phillipou
Busslinger
------------
Might be there:
Jefferson

Any ideas why Mitch Edwards wasn't selected in the u17 futures squad? At 205cm he is probably still growing. I don't get to see a lot of WA or SA games but what I've seen in the colts he looks good. Superfooty has him at #9

My last top 20 back in early Sept was;
  1. Harley Reid - Bend
  2. Zane Duursma - Gipps
  3. Nate Caddy - North
  4. Jed Walter - GCS
  5. Colby McKercher - Tas.
  6. Cooper Simpson - Dand
  7. Nathan Philactides - Oak
  8. Ashton Moir - Glenlg
  9. Logan Morris - West Jets
  10. Koltyn Tholstrup - Subi
  11. Mitch Edwards - Peel
  12. Darcy Wilson - Murr
  13. Nick Watson - East
  14. Archer Reid -Gipps
  15. Kynan Brown - Oak
  16. Koen Sanchez - Est Frem
  17. Sam Frangalas - Dand
  18. Jack Delean - Sth Adel
  19. Daniel Curtin - Clare
  20. Archie Roberts - Sand

But now it would be
  1. Harley Reid - Bend
  2. Daniel Curtain - Clare
  3. Zane Duursma - Gipps
  4. Jed Walter - GCS
  5. Nate Caddy - North
  6. Colby McKercher - Tas.
  7. Ashton Moir - Glenlg
  8. Nathan Philactides - Oak
  9. Cooper Simpson - Dand
  10. Logan Morris - West Jets
  11. Koltyn Tholstrup - Subi
  12. Mitch Edwards - Peel
  13. Nick Watson - East
  14. Jack Delean - - Sth Adel
  15. Darcy Wilson - Murr
  16. Archer Reid -Gipps
  17. Kynan Brown - Oak
  18. Ryley Sanders - Sand
  19. Sam Frangalas - Dand
  20. Archie Roberts - Sand

i think Mitch was 1 of 3 Peel players to play the Prelim Final instead of travel to play the u17's on GF day, Mitch Edwards, Clay Hall and Ethan Logan stayed in WA.

If Ginbey is available at our second , then would be a great get, very similar to Chad Warner at same age, except Ginbey is tougher.

In: Pick 6, Brockman, Amon, Meek, 1+ year development
Out:McEvoy, Mitchell, Gunston

We will be a stronger team next year.

I hate disagreeing with optimistic Hawthorn posts but I disagree.

We will be a similar team but far less experienced. A couple of extra losses will come from that alone.

Hope I'm wrong though.

We're only losing Gunston and McEvoy from the best 22 though, bringing in Amon and probably Meek.

Wingard playing a full season makes up for the loss of Gunston which we didn't have in 2021 anyway and only finished one spot lower.

Full seasons from Wingard and Lewis
Brockman back into the best 22
Butler, MacDonald, Moore have another 12 months of development

It’s an interesting list - reckon the top 5 will be clearly gone but sense that order of Humphrey, Clark, ginbey, Mackenzie is a bit more fluid.

Ginbey keeps getting put early by tworney but not as high by the BF draft watchers - I wonder if we’re one of the clubs who rate him?
 
Hollands moving up the list too. Nice player would love him. Runs hard both ways and inside and outside game. Long kick too. Did turn it over with some ambitious long kicks. Would be a great fit for our midfield.

Still not keen on McKenzie as others are. You watch the U18 game from last week most of the ball he got in close he was not able to get free like the good players can. Reckon he has a touch of the Worpels lacking a bit of agility. His outside work was ok couple of really nice kicks. The guns got to work in that game and showed they have another level. I didn't think he did.

Humphrey is intriguing...patrolled the Fwd 50 and looked to break the game open. Was in front and found the ball every time. Then a quiet 2nd half and ends up with 1.3. Big risk but big reward.

Binns a machine.

Love Constanty (sp?) He's a beauty.

Harley Reid holy crap what a player.
