Review 2023 National Draft Review Thread II [McKercher, Z.Duursma, Goad, W.Dawson, Hardeman, Maley]

[Disco Dew]

Classic Knox Westfield attitude; start hurling abuse and drive home to Rowville in your 2003 Ford Falcon.

Kinda smack bang in the middle of Knox and eastland. Neither are really local. In fact I probably spend as much time at Knox as I do highpoint, which is to say **** all

I wonder where Taylor Goad is expected to go? 205cm, ran 2.97 in the combine sprint, 2 of his 3 sprints were sub 3 seconds.

Would be nice to have a ruck prospect that wasn't moving at the speed of a glacier.

If he makes it to pick 30 I will be very surprised.

 

[ohmygewd]

Wouldn't it be best if we bid on Walter at #2 and not #3...

I would if l was Rawlings, they traded pick #4 to Bullies so pay up 2500+ pts.

That unspoken threat might be the reason we end up with pick 10

As Ma Anand Sheela once said "tough t1tties" ... so l hope we carry it out!!

Sick and tired of us not making clubs pay for top talent covered under academy or F/S...we should have done to Daicos and we should do it now for Walter.

 

[Firebat]

I tells ya, the Fisher deal may involve us trying to get their FRP and us dealing the future PP’s.

We bid on Ashcroft in that draft.

Hey AFL Haus you ****, where's me ****in' pick?

I’ve unwrapped all my assistance picks and there’s nothing here I like.

 

[LB2Snake]

What‘s FRP?

 

[Firebat]

What‘s FRP?

Their first round pick. We will exchange future selections for the 2023 blues pick.

They will get points for their F/S next year and we get immediate injection of talent.

Personally, I can't see a fast, skilful and athletic left footer in McKercher getting past Clarko.

I can. Clarko's not as mobile as he once was

 

[My Left Foote]

If #1 not traded;

1. WCE - Harley Reid
2. GCS - Jed Walter (matched bid)
3. NMFC - Colby McKercher
4. NMFC - Dan Curtin
5. HFC - Zane Duursma
6. WBD - Ryley Sanders

I suspect it’s more like this.

 

[Val Keating]

Looking forward to pick 3 being added to the title of tis thread!

 

[krakouers]

Nah, I don’t think you guys are happy to skip out on Curtin

Hmm Last Game ages:

Starting next year Gaff at 32, Yeo at 30, Sheed at 29, Kelly at 30, losing Shuey with 2-3 key defenders under 21? Yet they need another?

It really was more just about every single wc poster again entirely smug.

But in saying that. You can liken it to us making a play for Reid. I’m sure we surpass them with 2-3 mids under 21. So we have no business looking at Reid on that account

Maybe why pick ones are rarely the best player. Pressure too much

I’m not sure they can pass on Reid and pick anyone other than a mid, same as us not picking a KPP in this draft

Could we get Pendles as a coach?

How about working with Brady just for this draft?

Always crazy to me about losing for a player. The best sides in the league were built from multiple high end picks and more importantly smart targeted recruits from free agents. Also luck with injury but leave that out.

 

[ohmygewd]

WCE will want to turn #1 into at least 2 x top 10 1st rounders and their supporters will pile the pressure on them to take Curtin as their 1st pick if Reid/#1 is traded.
Scenario hasn't changed..they pick Reid, we pick Curtin and vice versa.

 

[ohmygewd]

Could we get Pendles as a coach?

GC tried that before he signed list last contract.

Some interesting top 10 national combine results

Darcy Wilson

2nd 2km time trial
8th agility test
6th standing vertical
1st running vertical

Connor O’Sullivan
8th 2km time trial

ZZ Top
6th 20m sprint
5th agility test
1st standing vertical
6th running vertical

If you told me a recent basketball convert would have those results as a 196cm well built kid, and outplay Curtin on grand final day, I’d say draft him.

Nate Caddy
10th agility test

 

[disco_cowboy]

how many picks are we expecting to want to take?
