Rookie Me summary of Port's draft outlook. They also suggest we can use a future pick to move up the order.



Well that ain't right is it? We already traded F1 so can't trade any other futures.....

I don't know any more. I believed that was the rule but I thought clubs had still managed to do it the past trade period. I included the comment because I thought these guys should be across the rule.

Completely missed that part, you're right. Unless there is some sort of exemption the AFL have given us that I'm unaware of? I think most of the players they've linked us to in the write-up make sense though.

I think they've gotten it wrong. Unless of course AFL gave an exemption but we don't have any circumstances that warrant one and I wouldn't have missed that news!
 
Yeah my point more so is that to most people, speed is the most important criteria in a player. Till my last day, I'll never see it that way. For me, disposal efficiency (in a positive way not backwards), ability to break tackles and ability to find space is superior. Speed is important for sure, but if someone has average speed like Hynes does, to go with the other attributes I've mentioned, they're a target for me. Especially in our midfield where we have lots of speed.

If I'm alone on this hill, so be it haha. Some of the best players in our game don't have breakaway speed

Being average at junior level and Afl level are two different things . If hynes is slow at junior level ,
Big body. Not quite third tall...not quite mid. Nice mark. Contested. A bit fumbly. Almost very good but just a fraction off.
Slow at Junior level and AFL level is one up level . I am not sure how good he will be there .

Yeah I just don't see the "slow" part mate. I think he's got average speed and many at AFL level are good enough to make things work with that average speed. I think the "slow" narrative is complete nonsense. People say the same for Reid which I also don't agree with.

Reid got more than average speed . He got footy attributes like Horne Francis or Butter . But for Hynes , pick -13 will be too early . He probably worth 2nd round pick .

Agree regarding Reid but those two have about the same speed. Pick 13 maybe early for Hynes which is why my ideal choice is to do that deal with GWS and pick him using 16 or 21. He won't slip past 24, almost sure of that.
 
If we don't get Hannaford or Dattoli, I would really like us to take Will Hayes later in the draft. I won't be against trading 36 for a future pick and one later in this draft. Dennis and Hayes I'd target in those 50s.

Hayes reminds me of Darcy Jones. Rhys Unwin another option too, plays similar to Joe Berry but more of a midfielder and less of the goal sneak that Berry is. Will be somewhere in those 50-60s as well

This is what makes it so interesting, after about 7, there is so much argument about the order. Many have there individual favourites.
Which is why I keep saying that we need to be flexible in terms of which position we target where rather than going tall for sure with pick 13 for example.

If it's not Shanahan at 13, then it's Gerreyn at 29, Sims at 36 if not West at 50

If its not Reid at 13, then it's Hannaford at 29 or Davis at 36 or Urquhart at 50

If it's not Trainor at 13, then it's Barratt at 29, Mraz at 36 or Dennis at 50

Then you have other options like Dattoli, Hynes, Gross, Hayes, Unwin, Bowman, Murphy, Day-Wicks, Clarke, Ough all in various stages on the draft that could be options as well

Generally recruiters have gone with what they believe is the best talent or potential best at that first pick. At 13 the waters are murky and all us amateurs are seeing it differently. Ive come around to being open to a number of different possibilties. I think there is more consensus on the types we want for the following selections.
