Player Watch 2023 AFL Draft Pool Discussion Thread

[Strapping Young Lad]

Same rule applies to this thread as other years, keep it on topic about the kids.
Don’t get bogged down on what other teams might do or where they will finish.

Trade speculation belongs here.
That's also where you can discuss your mock drafts or pick trades.

Any McCabe, Dear or Maginness talk belongs here.

Can someone dm me with the context on these Mitch Edwards dog jokes. Feel like an old man missing the punchline

 

[Mr Lizard]

it's pretty loose, it's right off the chain!

An English mate of mine, a Manchester United supporter like I am, decided that the club with colours closest to United's would be his AFL team, when he started following our great game. He chose Essendon (red-and-black).

Needless to say, we've had some interesting banter over the years. I keep telling him he should've chosen St Kilda as United's colours are actually red, black and white.

At least he can claim a moral victory every week.

Depends on what side of the fence you're on I guess

This is the (BF) way.

Anyone got any late mail outside of us taking Dear?

 

[Blackhawk42]

Good.....

We’re not trading our future 1st for a second round selection.

Who said "a", you would probably get something back. It is the talls that need more time. You could break up your first next year too to get a couple of later KPP but you are behind in development 2-3 years. Draft picks are just that, if Murphy was expected to go 16 and get a second round back is not too bad or get another forward. I just do not think we have that many positions left this year anyway to take.

I get what everyone is alluding to but I can’t even find the full story of this Edwards rumour on Reddit which is odd.

Zakotelsky has shown late development. Close to the best athletic profile in it. Played as an undersized ruck but has big potential as a KPD stopper. He's the one for me

He'll be well gone by the time we pick unfortunately.

few clubs sniffing around Mitch Edwards..

 

[dermott]

I suspect it will be a quiet night for us. Dear and trading for a future third may be it.

What the hell am I missing with Mitch Edwards doggo references?

Hehe...as long as it was consensual

When does Round 2 start?

When does Round 2 start?

2 more sleeps

2 more sleeps

Really now? Trying to follow it from overseas and just can't find the time on when it starts. I wanted to know if TJ slipped past 40.

Dammit eagles...

 

[The Golden Glenferrie]

Why don't they put the team on the clock on the screen instead of the team who just picked or the flogs in the studio?

So that we can listen to Mick Ablett talk shit.
