Preview 2024 AFL Draft General Discussion

Is Langford in everyone's top 10?

Seems to be heading in that direction

Is Langford in everyone's top 10?

You couldn’t blame any club for taking either Langford or Travaglia in the top 10. Those two have hardly played a bad game all year.

That kick inside 50 was nice by Smillie but he has to show me more before I say he is the number 1 pick.

 

[Rich the babe Evans]

Adrian Cole has looked composed today and made smart decisions...

Any chance to be selected?

Massively overhyped. No way he goes at pick 1. North should package for multiple picks later in the draft to get some talls. If there was ever a year to slide the order this one is it.

Awareness and disposal has been very poor this game, when he’s had space and time to measure his kick.

Most reliable player to turn up and contribute at a high level is Ashcroft for me. I’d definately trade pick 1 at the moment if I could find a taker. Very even top 16 or so.

You mustn't have seen FOS.

 

[TylerDurden]

From the Champs games I've watched, Ashcroft is the clear #1.

Smillie looks bog average if I'm honest.

 

[Deadly Darcy]

You mustn't have seen FOS.

Certainly haven’t seen him this year!!

Players advance and players regress in their draft years. The fact that O’Sullivan is likely to go at pick one, even possibly sight unseen at the champs, speaks to the inconsistency of the rest of the pack rather than his standout abilities. Good player but he’s no Harley.

 

[THE_GUN]

If Ashcroft was not a FS he would be top 2 with FOS

Smillie - Im not seeing a top 5 kid and dont see the inside bull or the Bont comparisons

 

[briztoon]

You mustn't have seen FOS.

You must be watching 2023 on an endless replay loop.

Saints will take him after 40 or as a cat b

Poor bloke... haha

Nah made some good decisions with ball in hand, just needed to get more of it.

 

[tigs2010]

Is Hoffman yours too?

 

[botts]

Is Hoffman yours too?

Yeah. How did he go today? I couldn’t watch the game

 

[botts]

Well he can always improve and be stolen by you guys again

 

[richoatthedisco]

You mean the year he would have gone top 5 as a 17-year-old?

Certainly haven’t seen him this year!!

Yeah, he's no Harley. There are no Harleys in this draft. Doesn't change the fact FOS is the best player this year.

 

[SteeleSaints]

Is there anywhere we can find the stats from the championships games - the AFL site is useless.

 

[SteeleSaints]

We have access to him but after watching the champs games there would be nearly every key defender from the 4 sides ahead of Cole.
