Player Watch 2024 AFL Draft Thread

[Strapping Young Lad]

Same rules as every other year.

This isn’t the thread to talk about your ladder predictions or declarations of how interested you are in the draft in response to a win/loss, nor is it the thread to declare who you want to trade for.
Those posts will be deleted.

Talk about the kids in the draft.

Give me Reid, because surely he'd be the first Murphy (first name) ever drafted and that's the type of stuff I enjoy.

If Grian Miers was called 'Paul' he'd be playing bush footy somewhere. That unique first name aura holds weight!

 

[CD Xbow]

Jonty Faull would be fantastic if he’s still around when we’re picking

I had to look up how to say it, it's a German name and according to this it's said close to 'fowl'.

I was hoping it wasn't said 'foal', cause Jonty Foal would put me on a My Little Pony alert. Danger, incoming Brony,!

Apparently Smillie is a quality individual, and is the kind of great character that you'd want around your club.

Walked past him the other day. Can confirm he is ****ing massive.

 

[CHUBBSS]

Another dominant midfield forward that is a freak athlete would be ideal, leek aleer style backman second.

The growth of hustwaite may be enough here and return of Blanck may solve this but I wouldn’t be waiting now, key pieces required for the core team to grow together

Looks like it is also scheduled in Foxtel too

 

[Bardo State]

Watching Country vs Metro. Gee, the top 20 feels so open.

Smillie, Ashcroft, FOS down to Travaglia, Moraes, Reid. Not a heap in it, is there? Not as much as usual.

Let alone the raw talls making a run at it. Would love to have a shot at a guy like Sims in the second round.

 

[TylerDurden]

Whitlock looking good.

 

[nelk boys]

Whoever gets Travaglia is going to be extremely happy.

 

[TylerDurden]

Kako just kicked his 3rd .

 

[Soaring Hawk]

Whitlock looking good.

Couple of good KPF options in Sims and Armstrong too.

Reid very impressive.

Travaglia and Langford have so much upside.

Would add to those hybrid unicorns of Day, Weddle, McCabe. Can play anywhere.

Our boy

I am firmly in the Don’t trade for B.Smith camp. Go hard for Perryman and Battle and MUST keep our pick. This draft looks very good. As of now I want one of J Whitlock/Travaglia/Langford/Armstrong at our first pick. Leaning Harry Armstrong

 

[cama30]

Would love for the Hawks to trade our future 1st to get a second first rounder pick in this year's draft!!

Surely GCS's pick is up for grabs.

 

[A1fromDay1]

Surely GCS's pick is up for grabs.

Don't think our future first is attractive enough to get one of their top 10 picks this year.

It will be good enough to get the Lions first as that will be traded with Ashcroft coming in.

But with the academy players taken before it will likely fall around pick 18 so would we trade our future first for pick 18?

 

[SSSSSS]

I think this is a really good draft to not have a top 5 pick. Looks like there will be plenty of value in the 10-25 range.

Armstrong’s left peg is Cameron-like. Very accurate and reliable. Super impressive.

Had never seen the bloke. Now they're saying top 10. He looks elite.

I am currently sold on Armstrong with our pick.
Solid goal kicker.

 

[VandoHawk]

Travaglia please please please.

 

[Hawk Vision]

Good to see the umpires are inserting themselves with shit calls late even in U18 games. . T Trav thanks btw, Day v2

They're just preparing the boys for AFL life.

 

[nelk boys]

Travaglia please please please.

Reminds me of Day a lot. As good as Hayden Young in his draft year.

Have any highlights of his game been posted?
