Analysis 2024 AFL Draft General Discussion

[LB2Snake]

If you nominate, dont you have to take them with your list pick if they dont get bid upon?

Really? That makes sense why they wouldn't I guess.

I feel like I read a rule about that somewhere. Maybe someone can clarify.

 

[anyfourcrowseyed]

Can nominate them, don't have to take them, I'd say they're just not at the standard to be even a consideration, but maybe they'll look to rookie list one or two of them potentially

Rome particularly had decent wraps on him is his underage year, obviously hasn't come on though

Are people honest in job interviews?

Depends if they want the job?

 

[sydney_gws]

All the Swans have a club, who they play for in a good competition. I think the need for academies is real, but not the right to match top 20 picks ( ok for GWS, Gold Coast to match from 11 onwards).

I work in mining, they give them jobs to anyone you just have to spell ya name right

Who do North fans want if they keep pick 2 which is looking more likely than not.

 

[Newbie Real Talk]

Who do North fans want if they keep pick 2 which is looking more likely than not.

Lalor, FOS, Draper in that order.

 

[BennyGan]

Lalor, FOS, Draper in that order.

why Draper?

 

[Mofra]

why Draper?

He's a gun. Plays round 1 for any of the teams that pick him in the pointy end of the draft. Some rate him ahead of the Vic kids.

I just don't think he's a great fit with the north midfield. I do love the FOS fit though.

 

[Mofra]

TBH I think Jagga components them best, he's 'slippery' - but he probably complements Richmond's mids best too (even through they seem linked to Lalor at pick 1)

ESPN’s top 50.

AFL Draft: ESPN's final, top 50 Power Rankings

The 2024 AFL Draft is rapidly approaching, with clubs finalising their preferences and making their decisions. Here's ESPN's extended, final Power Rankings for the class of 2024.

If for whatever reason we had pick 1, it'd be a tough call between Jagga and Draper for me.

 

[Scythe94]

This is a tracker I whipped up for our board that includes combine testing results, Talent League stats and 'consensus' rankings from the major outlets (top 30). Just posting in case it's useful for anyone:

Rookie Me Central's final draft power rankings have been added to the tracker.

You can see why - he just looks like an outstanding talent. The assumption was that Carlton went to 3 to get FOS, and I get FOS had a very good underage year. I’d be taking Draper over FOS every time based on what they respectively put on the park in 2024.

He certainly looks an unreal talent. Touch of the Wardlaw's for me.....just hunts the footy. But then gets on his bike and goes again and again.

 

[the big lebowski]

I just don't think he's a great fit with the north midfield. I do love the FOS fit though.

It’s true FOS’s versatility would be great and allows him to fit in on any line.

Probably starts off at half back.

But Draper, despite lack of versatility would be a great fit for our midfield due to

• defensive edge at cb
• power out of stoppage
• run and carry

Sheezel will play more and more forward as we improve

Mckercher more suited to outside run imo

So you’re left with

Ldu
Wardlaw
Powell
