Murphy Reid the stand out in this draft, will be starting for freo next year- leaps and bounds ahead of Erasmus, M.Johnson, O’meara in the mid rotation. Unique vision and poise. Eagles also had a great draft. The North trade is criminal.
Erasmus starts at most AFL clubs he is AFL level for sure in my mind.
 
Obvious question, but tigers supporters happy with their selections? Think you chose some rippers. Interested in the strategy too, lots of talls. A reverse-kanga, if you will 😂
Very happy with the picks, albeit we have gone for the high risk high reward in a number of them.

Played numbers game on the talls. Would be hoping Sims makes it along with 1 of the other 2 forwards. Trainor worth the punt to play 3rd tall with Balta & Gibcus. Seems an absolute ripper of a bloke and culture builder.

I'd expect our pick & your pick next year will be mids to round out that area with Lalor & Smillie.

Yeah I like what ya did with Trainor and Hotton......both potential top 5 players IMO. The talls, you are pretty stacked I reckon....Armstrong a ridic good get, plus the insurance of the other 2. A win.
"Our' pick gunna be the talk of the year.........massively bold strategy by us, but I guess could be worse if we didn't have the F2. I've come around to it, was losing my mind on the night :drunk:

interesting. why do you day Port? Horrendous ball user and decision maker in Moraes and a Matt Taberner clone? Berry is nice though.
As a Port fan, I agree. I don't think Moraes is a bad ball user, more a bad decision maker. Jack Whitlock is inbetween Taberner and Hipwood and I rate neither of them. Berry is a good pick up but we needed Reid or Shanahan more. Now we are still left with some holes on the list.

You guys salvaged the draft on night 2 as no knock on berry but another small forward didn't seem like the right fit with all the small forwards on your list already. From a crows perspective we are glad you took him and not Reid as i rate Reid highly and he would have helped your side stuturally to free Rozee up as a half forward. But Whitlock may be a longer term answer to the tall forward hole once he fills out and get moraes straight down to Tredrea to teach him how to kick well and he to me was a steal where you got him.

Seems like we know our lists better than our respective list managers, I will gladly trade Reid for Berry today, not sure how you get pick 45 back off WC though.

It has definitely come out as a reverse kangaroos style take on drafting

I think that was more to do with the players available at our late 1st round picks then any concerted effort to pick talls though

If two of them do come good though it does make the rest of the rebuild a hell of a lot easier
 
Eagles win the draft! I would be so happy as a supporter of that club with the draft results.
I think Hamish Davis could play round 1 next year. I didn't know why so many other clubs didn't rate him.

You say Taberner clone like it's a bad thing. He had a horrendous run with injuries over his career, but when relatively fit and stringing games together over 2020-2022 he averaged a bit over 5 marks and 2 goals a game.
 
Gold Coast sniped Max Knobel from Freo
Then Freo grab a ruckman?
Seems a bit poor by Freo there. Cheeky by the Suns
 
No he wasnt, he was being reported as a top prospect in the media, but so was every other gun KPP and look how far they all slipped. Dont make shit up because you read some posts
he was certainly spoken about as the best key defender in the draft at one stage.
 
Hahahah Twomey had him at 7 in July. Keep making up rubbish and enjoy the wooden spoon ahhahaha
Yeah? What did I say ya goose? Which club does Twomey recruit for?

Please keep up, I am tired to.
