Preview 2024 AFL Draft General Discussion

[Johnny Bananas]

Id consider pick 2 to GC for 6 and 13. Then Tiges can go after pick 2 with Rioli and whatever else.

I can't imagine a trade gets done for Rioli if Gold Coast have pick 2.

 

[The Kaiser Chief]

Quite fascinating, I thought he went okay, actually in some games he showed why every club was eager to get him but knew he would go in the top 4 selections and tried to move up but failed, getting experience, learning the ropes against the bigger bodies, learning the intensity at AFL level and working on his game are the little things he is getting from playing at that level, 13 games at senior level in his first year tells me that we are very very happy with Zane's first year, this lad is going to be an absolute gun and not only has nothing changed but I think he might be 'special", he has the right tools and ability to do it when he becomes ready.

I don't like to 'write off' young players and I am sure he will be better with a big pre-season but he was 'managed' a number of times and the 13 games are quite flattering with him neing subbed in a number of games.
His running patterns need to change

We wouldn't say no

 

[LOZWILDA]

Who do you want at Richmond and would you look to use picks to get up to 3/4/5?

FOS, Jagga, Lalor, Travaglia, Berry, Whitlocks, Hynes.
Jagga doubtful to slide so far(7). Reid, Lalor, Smillie or Langford.
And obviously depends on how many top 12 picks we get.
No I would not try to move picks in the teens to get higher picks 3/4/5.
Top 10- excellent
Top 24- picks including f/s & academy seem very good.

Would love Travaglia and Berry at Freo, looks like we are going to hand both those boys to you for Bolton. Lindsay is the other I like.

Exact same for the Blues for mine.

Berry + 1 of Travaglia, Hotton or Lindsay would be a dream for me before a bid on Ben. Think the Blues will be using the rest of our picks on the 'now' so likely only get the chance at one of them but would love to find a way to get Berry + another.

Is there anyone with privileged access to stats who would be willing to share with me a few measures for some of the top prospects? Specifically want to get a comparison on ground ball gets and the hard ball/loose ball breakdown thereof.

I realise it's unlikely anyone who might have the relevant info will even see this, but hopefully someone here is willing to help by directing me to particular posters, tagging them, shooting me a PM, whatever.

Great question

Pls Let me know if you get anywhere

It's looking like FOS will slip due to a lack of games. North, West Coast or even Adelaide are about to get a steal.

That's not a slip really though?

Is it.

Anything after pick 1 would be a slip.

If he plays this weekend he will be pick 1. Just get the feeling he will light it up.

 

[bulldogs201616]

In terms of talent I think it is a slip he has something different that the other prospects up the top don't have.

anyone got an update on Harry O’Farrell or Noah Mraz?

Forget Mraz, why is Riak Andrew not being spoken about more?

Mate, none of that makes any sense, Freo have 9,10 and ports pick (14-18) after the battle compo that becomes 10,11 & 15-19, how are you getting picks 8&19 for Bolton and 9 to trade to WC for Baker?

Edit: here’s what is actually going to happen.
Battle compo end of round 1 = 21
Baker = 24 from WC (dropped one due to battle)
Rioli = 12 from Gold Coast
Bolton + 22 = 9+14 (port out in straight sets)
Richmond end up with 1,9,12,14,24 which is still a very good hand in an even draft.
Freo leave 10, F1 & 22 on the table for Warner. If Sydney don’t bite they offer 10&22 to Melbourne for Pickett. My guess is neither of those teams take to bait and Freo go to the draft with 10, 22 & 28.

Because he's not that good?
