Thanks to Lore for this great resource

Shannahan can play back and has the potential to be a better option than Georgiades and Lukosius for the “kick it on top of Charlie’s head” replacement. He would do an apprenticeship at CHB at SANFL level.

I'm hoping that Kenny without a bombing target in Dixon over the course of the off season will be in communication with Chadler and hopefully they've devised a new forward line structure that will enhance the playing styles of Mitch and J-Luk but I'm also hoping that Dua Lipa spends the night.

The Dua Lipa reference is for the young people because Elle MacPherson is too old a reference. Bloody kids.

Does anyone else get Hipwood vibes from Jack Whitlock? Reminds me know Hipwood u18 haha

He’s very polarising.

Sometimes he looks like Tom Lynch. Other times he’s Mason Shaw.

jack whitlock is the better one, correct?

 

[Blinky Nyland]

I would love Shanahan and not be thrilled with Whitlock.

The Whitlocks look like they'll need time and then may not even make it. Skinny talls that lack body strength don't usually make it in the AFL. Hipwood and Max King are OK but someone a tad shorter with more intensity like Shanahan is preferrable. Having said all this I think our need for a tall is more in the backline. Aliir is 30, BZT is more a lockdown defender and Ratugolea has not settled into a KD. Beyond those 3 there is only the inexperienced Walsh.
Best skilled, nippy, footy smart forward/mid is my preference (Reid, Hotton or Berry) with our first pick. Then pick an athletic KD in the second round.

 

[PJ Power]

Pick 13 needs to make it as a top 10 player on our list. If Shanahan is a more consistent and reliable prospect than Whitlock, that’s the way we should go.

According to many, I think there's little between the two tbh

If we go Shanahan with 13, then I'd go Hannaford/Gross at 29, Clarke at 36 and Dennis at 50. Gives us a bit in every position we need

 

[all seeing eye]

If “can play at both ends” appears anywhere in a bio, I wouldn’t go anywhere near them. Probably the biggest red flag there is for kpp draftees

SNAPSHOT: “An mobile key position player with vice-like hands and the ability to hit the scoreboard when presenting strongly up forward, with further capabilities to play down back and in the midfield.” – Adrian Dixon

 

[Macca19]

Shanahan at 13, Barrat at 29. Gives us two future bookends.

Schulzenfest would draft him then.

He can get down the ground is a better way of saying it. He did on a couple of occasions during the season when his side was getting creamed and stemmed the damage.

Hugh Jackson might be utilised as a winger at AFL level if Boak's injured.
In the SANFL played as an inside mid but that role is taken at AFL level. It might be his only way getting a shot at breaking into the AFL team.

[emoji[emoji6][emoji6]][emoji6] will be his make or break season.

Having said that, our sanfl side was lite on for midfielders. I’d be taking the best mid with our first pick.

I don't hate Jack Whitlock as a pick. I'd prefer others of course, but he has the potential to be a genuine jet and would work with our forward profile nicely, as well as being backup ruck.

He's more of a Marshall type. Mobile, skinny tall forward. Lukosius and Finlayson are also that lighter framed mobile tall. For balance, if we go for a tall forward, in my opinion, it needs to be a more physical, pack buster who also has skills with his kicking and good hands. Lord was projecting as that physical, pack buster but his progress stalled this season.

Wouldn't be surprised if Barratt was picked at 36 either. Shanahan, Hannaford/Gross, Barratt. I dont mind Dennis at 50 either. The deeper in the draft we go, I prefer taller prospects than midfield ones.

 

[Shaucob_Burjan]

I'll be pretty bummed if we used #13 on a tall forward and he topped out at Hipwood ngl

 

[Addy23]

I'll be pretty bummed if we used #13 on a tall forward and he topped out at Hipwood ngl

I'd be pretty bummed if we used any pick on a tall forward and he topped out at Hipwood ngl

Hence why I want Shanahan at #13 if we are going tall there

 

[manureid]

When we re sign Hinkley for 2 more years whichever key forward we pick should enjoy developing as the new kick it on me 'ead tall in the gameplan. Good luck kid.

 

[It Just Is]

Shanahan would be great.

I wouldn’t have thought that Fremantle would be drafting a tall forward so it also potentially opens up the option to create additional value through a pick swap.

 

[Jonts]

If you want a KPF and Armstrong is off the board that's when you split the pick with Sydney for 19 and 22

Don't reach into Whitlock

 

[JimmyBC]

Any decent KPD's rated under pick 30.. god forbid we ever draft one.

 

[Jonts]

Neither Whitlock excites me but I can see a half decent defender for a second round price in Matt Whitlock

Using 13 on either is melt time

 

[Powerade 08]

Wait till he releases his proper phantom draft, we arent trying to trade our pick up for Whitlock.

 

[Rash]

I bet he has us picking shanhan at 13, when he does his phantom draft

 

[philthy05]

Since GFs returned to the MCG (last 3 years) the winners have had 9 goals kicked by key forwards and 23 kicked by small/medium forwards-

Player type that outnumbers kfs something like 3/1 to 7/1 score more goals

Hardly a surprise.

Recently, maybe Logan Mcdonald. He reminds me of a young Tom Lynch though. Attacks the ball hard, can mark at its highest point at speed, is good below his knees, good set shot kick. Its his attack at the ball and his ability to take contested marks which is what does it for me.

What's his ability like to get to contests ( and I’m not just talking about engine, some players just don’t know how to be where the ball is)

Interesting that St Kilda passed on Soldo and would rather give Boyd from Norwood a crack.

Also I’m surprised there is not more talk of us going for a winger. Bergman got shifted back, Burgoyne played his best game at half back. We’ve got Boak playing on the outside. We recently lost Duursma, Amon and Bonner. Lorenz is the only backup we got.

Sinn

We’re also going to be rotating mids through the wing no doubt as well.
