List Mgmt. 2024 Draft - The Final Countdown

[docko911]

was it any good ? I dont know anyone from it

Midfielders went early and were average with Brayshaw and LDU the best at picks 3 and 4.

KP’s went later and were better - Naughton, Fogarty, Balta, Allen, Sam Taylor, De Koning, McCartin, Petty & Ballard.

Welcome the pair to punt road

Thanks heaps for all of your work, we just get to see the end product and have no idea of the time and effort that goes in to producing the mountain of work that you've done.

I've noticed though that you have a few knocks on the KPP's in this draft (so it's not just me) Armstrong with his inconsistent contested marking, Shanahan's competitiveness and I'm sure there're other concerns on the rest.

Do you see any of the KPP's in this draft that can take the game by the neck and lead a team to a premiership?

I do sometimes wonder if I'm just too harsh on tall forwards in general and I have my biases, so perhaps take my opinion with a grain of salt. There's every chance one or all of these guys are going to make it.

I prefer my key forwards to be highly competitive and have some white line fever. I think its far more common for the key forwards who lack that competitive drive to end up as busts, like Schache and Weideman.

The toughtest key forward competitor in the pool is Jonty Faull without a doubt. He was fantastic at the tail end of last year, entered the season as the top ranked key forward prospect and a top 10 fancy. But then he had the back injury, and just didn't really look like the same guy even after he got back on the field. He kicked some bags, but wasn't moving freely and didn't look right to me. Back injuries are a probably for tall guys. I'd want to see the medical report on that, but if it looks like its not going to linger then I'd take Jonty over the others.

Welcome the pair to punt road

You can tell by how happy they both look.

 

[Rubber Hips]

is bo short for beauregard or bobo?

or bogan?

It’s either. Bong Allen , Boner Allen or Bollocks Allen depending on how his season pans out next year

 

[Rubber Hips]

_RT_ going all in hoping we don't trade half the picks in little slides and create more work for himself...

….good excuse for him to take a dump

 

[of unsound mind]

Don't think we could ask for better than those 3 at our current picks barring a player sliding ridiculously which worries me about getting our hopes up

Lock it in

 

[tigs2010]

Gotta feel for Saints fans. All the Tauru talk had them getting a good mid

 

[GoTigers2015]

Smiling because they have seen Twomey's Phantom Draft.

 

[Punt Road Feral]

Dee's sending them Clutch & Co gear in the hope they nab both of them

[tiger_tough]

Not convinced Dees will pass up Smillie.

 

[UpTheGutz]

Not convinced Dees will pass up Smillie.

Not convinced Saints would take him

 

[Groupie_]

is ryan gieschen unleash the geisch's son ?

 

[SumTingWong]

We are also extremely keen on multiple Sandy Dragons players.

Which ones?

 

[Stylo]

Can someone sell Alger to me? Don’t see it atm

 

[Finn9]

Not convinced Saints would take him

You sold on Smillie?

 

[nugget_12]

I’d be bloody stoked if Cal’s phantom for us came true, probably be happy to swap Shanahan to J.Whitlock or Armstrong but the rest I’m ok with, Alger can take or leave but I reckon we’ll trade that pick.

Lalor/Smillie/Lindsay is a good blend with Lindsay being the outside mid we need who can play across hb.

Draft night can’t come quick enough

 

[Finn9]

I definitely get the anxiety about picking both Lalor and Smillie, both have no ceiling, but a bit of bust potential. I think they’re the best option by far, if it plays as it looks it might

Thanks for taking the time to reply and offer an honest appraisal.

We've had our fair share of those that lack that competitive drive and have been lucky enough to have scored two that do, Reiwoldt and Lynch.

It's what I've been looking for in this pool but just haven't seen it, along with what I consider sub standard skills. Good to hear about Faull and I'm sure that we'll do our due diligence.

One that has piqued an interest is Gerreyn, I think he has the skillset along with that bit of mongrel/competitiveness, just a pity that his exposure in the WAFL was limited to a couple of washed out games where he didn't get a chance to perform. Obviously dominated the Colts given his size, just wondering whether he could transition to playing AFL
