Preview 2022 draft prospects

[KJpie]

Chris Grant went pick 105. We need to start looking for some gems in the 6th round

Maybe we could trade down for it, 2 first rounders should get it done

 

[BEEG]

We can’t trade our future first, so you probably need to rethink this.

Why is that? Doesn't Daicos count as a 1st pick?

That's pretty stupid if he doesn't, they brought this rule in to protect teams from blowing up a list which is understandable, Daicos should surely count as a 1st round selection though.

Would you do the trade if it was possible?

A first round draft pick wasn’t used on him.

 

[TradeDraft]

We are not Geelong

 

[manicpie]

Would you do pick 3 for pick 16, pick 27 & likely pick 12 (2023)?

Sounds like unders.

Sounds like draft suicide

 

[KJpie]

Why is that?

We traded out our future 2nd for Hill & future 3rd for Frampton, so we can't trade out our future first unless we trade back in a future 2nd & 3rd from another club/s
EFA

 

[Lings of Geelong]

We traded out our future 2nd for Hill & future 4th for Frampton, so we can't trade out our future first unless we trade back in a 2nd & 4th future from another club/s

Bad news...it was a future 3rd for Frampton

 

[Harry O]

Keeler/Lemmey, Barnett and Munkara would be an interesting mix for us.

Assuming the consensus top 12 or so are all taken before our first pick I would have the following priorities in this order on my draft board with our first selection -
E Hewett
L Cowan
L Hayes
H Barnett
B George
J Weddle

Hopefully one might slide to our second pick too

[Scodog10]

Must be incredible never making a mistake in life.

I was prepared to be lenient until this. It says it in the title that it’s a form guide…

 

[Apex36]

Why is that? Doesn't Daicos count as a 1st pick?

That's pretty stupid if he doesn't, they brought this rule in to protect teams from blowing up a list which is understandable, Daicos should surely count as a 1st round selection though.

Would you do the trade if it was possible?

Because we’ve already traded our future second and third.

And no, I probably wouldn’t.

 

[Apex36]

A first round draft pick wasn’t used on him.

Yes it was.

L Hayes
H Barnett

Why Cowan and Weddle?, pretty much just half back flankers, plenty of them available at later picks. Hewett, Hayes and Barnett are no brainers but George has had one major knee injury during the year and has now done an ACL, bit of a risk

 

[Mick F]

Yes it was.

I thought we took picks 36, 38, 40, 46, 48, 55 and 58 into the 2021 draft?

 

[MightyRoar]

I thought we took picks 36, 38, 40, 46, 48, 55 and 58 into the 2021 draft?

We matched the bid which projected us to a first round pick.

Both Sicily or Taylor could have been a pie

 

[satanshoof101]

Pies 1st and pick 27 and future 1st for pick 3.

Sounds like alot but we need star power and need another star kid to build with Daicos.

Best shot is a top 5 pick.

I don't trust Hine to land anything special with pick 16 which will be 17/18 after Academy/FS.

I would have traded pick 16 for Tom De Koning, could play Ruck/FWD/DEF

Great for our structure

 

[Pragmatic Shill]

All I know is I'm mentally preparing myself for Hine to use 16 on a 190cm bloke that he'll say in a post-draft interview has the ability to play tall or small and at either end of the ground while being able to roll through the ruck.

[sr36]

How do people still get this confused?

Probably because power ranking is such a stupid term. I'm waiting for someone to release their Mega power rankings.

 

[Mollythedolly]

Yes and no. Buckley clearly fired up the troops by taking micks job and 2010 showed that. A lot of them clearly played for MM in 2010 and 2011. It was a big factor. If I could go back in time I would never take away the succession plan. Dont get me wrong Jolly and Ball were big inclusions as well and maybe we could have pulled it off without Bucks joining. But you would never take away the we want to keep mick factor. Its a poor call to say otherwise imo.

Buckley's contribution was reportedly more tangible in that he apparently orchestrated the forward press which underpinned much of our success in 2010 and 2011.

Be a good draft to walk away with 3 of these guys.

 

[Mollythedolly]

I reckon he has next to zero chance of being drafted by us.

He doesn't suit our style at all - non competitive outside player.

I think he'll be slotted into the vacant Cat B spot if he slips through. He's a free hit and gives us a year to more fully evaluate at VFL level.

 

[Jen2310]

Watching his highlights, Geez wouldn't mind a 195cm midfielder in hustwaite. I'm definitely warming to him.

 

[ThePheonix]

Watching his highlights, Geez wouldn't mind a 195cm midfielder in hustwaite. I'm definitely warming to him.

I predict we might pick him.

Yeah agreed looks the goods in his highlights.
