Preview 2024 AFL Draft General Discussion

[bulldogs201616]

I’d take that Baz for Hannaford deal in a heartbeat

I'm hoping he gets to our pick but I have a feeling he will go earlier. Every day he seems to be getting more traction I wouldn't be shocked if he went top 15

Quick Mock draft with mock trades. Im sure everyone has a different list but tell me what you would change.

I'm not ITK but Melbourne have taken a key forward with our first pick in 2 of the last 3 drafts (Van Rooyen in 2021, Jefferson in 2022). Jefferson looks like he could be a bust but I'd be surprised if we went 3 from 4, surely we go a mid instead.

It's there own pick 18 after bids. Because Swans and Sun's traded for north Melbourne's PP so there is an extra 2 picks in the first round this year.

You'll need to learn about bid matching and the points system.

Lions and Suns will lose their late first round picks matching earlier bids. Those picks will get traded to other teams for later picks.

not if they match ashcroft

 

[eaglevision]

Richmond won’t bid on Ashcroft at pick 1 and they will get pick 18 off the Lions. Nothing surer.

Didn't think that though my bad. I guess they will trade pick 18 then

 

[bulldogs201616]

Yeah made a mistake it's hard doing mock trades and mock bids. So I'll just stick with Brisbane at 18 for now until I get a clearer picture on who they plan on trading that first rounder too

 

[RedmanWasHere]

Speaking of mocks, when are we gonna have a mock draft with calculator generator enabling us to put in mock bids as a way of understanding the points system better?

Richmond.

 

[Mostyn]

Yeah so not really growing the game up there

Yeah, choosing a Victorian private school pathway should immediately remove you as a possible Academy selection.

Not really.

That's limited in that you can't create a mock draft out of it.

I know those two have had a cross put through them

Would be a massive about face if they changed there mind

Is it more about their ability than the fact they're Vic Metro players?

Not sure either belong in the top 3 selections.

How bad are trainors concussion issues? Probably rather the eagles grab another midfielder or HBFer at their second pick

like a lot of what you did, don't think WC pick trainor with 2nd pick, 1 concussion issues and 2 they need mids

I think he has had 2 or 3. I can't see him slipping out of the top 15 but you never know.

 

[briztoon]

It's not that they're Vic Metro players, it's that they've allegedly made comments about not wanting to move out of Victoria.

What players do you mean?

That'd put a few teams off you'd think

Good. Saints can take him with 24

Bit of a fun hypothetical to consider PMBangers, eDPS, Smythe, Bastyy, Davo-27 and Pie 4 Life.

Cast your respective minds back to 2020 and 2021.

Because those were the COVID seasons, the following questions for you guys.

1: Who would you have had as your 46 players for the fantasy future's game for both years?
2: How would you split those players up?
3: What would those teams have been called?
4: Who would coach those teams?
