I see Dudley came third in Centrals best and fairest . Rookie him I reckon

That's surprising. average 1.1 goals a game 5 kicks 4 handballs and 3 tackles.

Ive always liked him and noticed hes got his weight down to 74 kgs (168cm) but didn't think his input was there this year.

That said we will list less talented players.

I would love him to have a run at the Magpies.

Lalor,Langford i would say are match winners
Langford's got a POD that might set him apart at AFL level but whether he's got the ability to turn games is still a question for me

Lalor, has the talent but need to see more consistency
 
I think you're underselling the top of the draft. Plenty to like there. In their years, Harley Reid and the Hornet were mouth watering but the rest of those names weren't considered match winners. There are a lot of guys with a lot of point of difference too.
I agree there are lots of his with a POD but that doesn't necessarily mean they have the game changing abilities. Sheezel, Watson, Naicos and Will Ashcroft were extremely consistent in showing they could impact games off their own boot.

Again, there'll be plenty of players that a core at clubs from this draft but whether there are 10 generational talents like recruiters make it out to be is something for me that remains to be seen

I don't hear anyone saying this draft has 10 generational talents. People are saying it is deep to 40 and you can get Top 20 talent through to 40.

I think some of the names you've put up there have good counterparts in this draft. Watson with Lombard. Ashcroft with his brother. Both Oakley boys look the goods. I really like Finn. Jagga is a machine. Langford and Lalor for bigger mids. Even the athletic guys like Tauru and Bo Allan have huge potential. Draper looks great too.

For mine, there could be real value after 40.

It's one of the things about the draft. You just never know.
 
-a player drafted between 6-10 has a 1/5 chance of making an AA team in their career
  • 1/3 of players drafted between 6/10 don’t make it to 50 games
-1/2 of players drafted between 10-20 never get to 100 games
-A pick 1 or 2 has a 50:50 shot of ever making all Australian
  • if you have 7 draft picks in the 6-10 range. One of those will fail to make it to 10 games
-5% of players drafted from pick 6-20 will never play an AFL game. 16% won’t make it to 10 games. 35% of them won’t get to 50
  • players picked from 6-20 will average about 6 games in their first season
-only 7 of the past 30 brownlow medalists have been top 10 picks.
-only 5 of this years all Australian team were top 10 draft picks
 
State combine testing over the weekend

Benny Barrett ran 2.913 seconds in the 20m sprint. He was the quickest in the state combine.
In the AFL national combine he would of came 3rd. The quickest in the national was 2.815 seconds by Gabriel Stumpf

Jacob Molier (ruckman) came 2nd in the SA State Combine 20m sprint with 2.920 seconds

🤡 behaviour from Benny. These nga/father son types need to start throwing more.

That's a sharp speed for a guy who's name means blunt or dull in German (no not Barrett :p)
 
With both Soldo and Clurey set to stay, forget about drafting rucks and KPDs.

Inside mid, winger and small forward possibly the 3 positions to draft.

I’m pretty happy with winger.

We’ve got sinn, jase burg, hugh Jackson and will lorenz looks a real find.

Sure a cpl of those options will likely play hbf and wing but also we’re adding rome burger as a hbf / wing and rozee / butters etc should be rotating through there.


Inside mid / genuine onballer a big need imo.


Also, we have a lot of key defenders maybe but very few 3rd tall intercepting types. I wouldn’t go searching for one but if there’s a nice one there sure.

Anyone seen Jacob Molier from Sturt?

201cm ruck, just turned 18 a few days ago, so he's a bottom ager.

At the State Draft Combine he had the highest vertical leap, second fastest 20m sprint.

According to what's on the internet, he palms the ball pretty well to his mids, can take defensive marks, can get his own clearances, and his disposal efficiency is quite high for a big guy.

Project ruck, perhaps?
Clearly, Hodson is Sturt's main ruck, and was SA ruck in national Champs, and is older. So Molier plays as back up ruck, but seems to be coping with that ok.

Can't poach him at the magpies now that McLennan has moved from central's
 

The athleticism of Sturt tall Jacob Molier may have caught the eye of recruiters at the Telstra AFL State Draft Combine on Saturday. Molier excelled in the jumping tests, winning the vertical jump on the day with a height of 64cm and finishing equal-first in the left foot running vertical jump (84cm).

However, it was Molier’s speed in the 20m sprint which was particularly exciting for a player of his size, finishing second with a time of 2.920 seconds. The only other player to run faster on the day was South Adelaide speedster Benny Barrett, who ran a blistering time of 2.913 seconds.

Woodville-West Torrens’ Tate Delmenico performed strongly across the testing combine, recording an 80cm left foot running vatical jump, a 3.040 second 20m sprint and led all-comers in the agility test in a time of 8.213 seconds.
Glenelg utility Thomas McKay also performed well recording an 81cm left foot running vertical jump, 8.309 second agility test and a six minutes and 43 second 2km time trial.
Rounding out the strong performances were Norwood’s Jay Polkinghorn who tied first with Molier in the left foot running vertical jump by recording 84cm, while at the SA Athletics Stadium, Glenelg’s Harrison Ramm and Woodville-West Torrens U18 captain Jett Hasting couldn’t be split in the 2km time trial, both crossing the line in six minutes and 29 seconds.
Kade Herbert, Louie Montgomery and Tom Cochrane were all unable to test due to injury.

We've already got 3 rucks.

I'd go Alex Dodson at a million miles an hour.

Outside of that someone is interested in him or he wouldn't be at the Combine. Finding a spot on the Rookie list looks like being hard work though and with Soldo hanging around can we develop a Ruck?
