I think the chances of other clubs taking Draper are…
North 1%
Richmond (if they trade) 10%
Carlton 10-15%

Draper's been giving Brad Ebert "of course they're going to take him/how could you not take him" draft vibes of late

And yet still only 60-62 picks likely. Lots of good kids going to miss out

Richmond closer to 9%
High metres gained from both long kicking and running with the footy. Would have to average more running bounces than the the other top 4.
He certainly doesn’t play a “slow” style of footy
Incidentally he’d also have as good a marking highlight real from u18 footy as Dursma did last year
Another speed anomaly imo. Like Langford, Travaglia tested poorly over 20m, but you wouldn’t say he lacks speed in any capacity. Loves to run with the footy and whereas Langford sort of lopes along Travaglia seems to eat the space infront of him quickly.
Reminds me of Mckercher’s 20m time last year. Slower than Dursma over 20m and it wasn’t really close.
But on a footy field he’s a running bounce machine l.
Draper at 10!!! oh my god, he needs to see a priest

Fantastic we can trade down to 10 and pick up a F1 along the way
I don't think we have anywhere near enough high end players, particularly in the midfield, to be genuinely contending around the top few for multiple years. But as I said seasons ago, our version of a rebuild was not to contend in the top few, but rather around the bottom of the 8 as soon as possible. And that's where we are.
i watched about a 3rd of the first one and it was tough going. No wonder he's slipped so far, he's awful.
He's not awful at all, but he's not the finished product

I’m happy to cut him some slack
When other draft prospects are still playing in junior pathways, Welsh is playing against men for the first time in the best comp outside the AFL

Reckon his highlights are bloody good but his fitness and therefore consistency are poor , staying in games etc
Kicking 8 in U18 and 5 at league level and 4 against vic country with poor supply shows he can play
How many 5 goal hauls in SANFL does Himmelberg have to his name? This dude does it before he's 18.
I gather you didn't watch the first video.
He's definitely got the ability to get separation from his defender when leading. Guess he's got a good burst.
Also seems like a pretty good kick.
Rendell obviously final decision but Hamish pushed very hard for Danger during the year (previous interview Rendell said that).
Also interesting attached that Randell wanted L Neale in 2011 but nobody else in his team agreed with him so didn’t pick him in the ND. I would have imagined he could have overruled and chosen in the 40/50’s (we got Joyce and Grigg instead…)
Don't think fitness will take that long. But he'll be 21 in 3 years right? So lots of time to get better.
