Good to see Laura again.

Was everywhere early in the 2024 season and then when the heat came on there were more sightings of a Yeti!

 

[Speck]

Can we get the Sandy Dragons area as an academy?

 

[Banger9798]

If his nickname isn't Simon are we even trying anymore?

Can't wait to get down to training to watch this crop!

I've been searching for that joke for 5 minutes....nice work.

 

[Yass03]

Anyone got an inkling as to why Davis hasn't gotten picked yet?

 

[hangdog]

We still have two more picks. Maybe we pass?

Hopefully they Sign with Sandy and we rookie them.

 

[SaintWWodonga]

Boxhull & Said both goal kicking mids?

 

[Vacuous Space]

Can someone explain the trade we did for boxshall. Seems pretty steep price to pay.

Dudes had some hype over here.

Keep in mind that R2 might take a long time to start next year with more academy nonsense. Getting a player we know we like in now much better than an unknown in a less desirable draft.

Plus, he's Huge Box. You literally cannot go past him.

 

[stavro#4]

Well Sandy will be fun to watch next year.

Word is Uncle Colin is furious that Laura did the Acknowledgement Welcome Country thingy on night two.

 

[Armoooo]

I didn't watch many games, but from what I did see, I didn't see much in Hoffman. Was pretty surprised to hear talk of a bid coming in the 30s.

Wouldn't lose much sleep about missing Cole and Hoff. Would rather Cole if we can only grab one.

 

[Hayes4PM]

Value for money, I'd say West Coast, Richmond and us look the goods. Who knows how it develops obviously, but on face value, there's some great value picks in there.

 

[wannabewinner]

I am just too jaded after all the hoopla after the 2022 draft. Still deflated about Hotton and Keeler.

 

[stavro#4]

Adelaide board has a few posts insinuating some sort of incident is the reason Dodson dropped

 

[Dard Ball Get]

As the dust settles, I think we should all agree we have had a fantastic draft. Added quality across all lines, all in keeping with our game style and with huge upside.

To those who have embarrassed themselves with wild emotional swings, unfounded statements and knee-jerk reactions, use this time to look inward and work on yourselves x

 

[HeavenlySources]

Who needs Jagga Smith when you have Patrick Said and the BoxMan

 

[Joffaboy]

If his nickname isn't Simon are we even trying anymore?

Can't wait to get down to training to watch this crop!

I am going to struggle with 3 of them. The two blondes and the beanstalk will stand out, Barrett, Boxhall and Said may be difficult.

WAFL Colts has tendency to be lower quality than other leagues so his performances might not be rated as highly.

Also being a tallish half forward/utility is probably not very desirable at this stage of the draft - jack of all trades master of none type thing.

Keeler is still a question mark, can still make it and has shown signs.

Agreed about Hotton though, wasted potential there.

Keeler?

He's still got heaps of time.

Has played back, forward and ruck as part of his development. Could be anything!

Did he bully Schoenmaker?

Forgot to hand out party bags at his birthday

 

[SaintsSeptember]

Anyone know what our trades were?

 

[akaifu]

Boxhull & Said both goal kicking mids?

Boxshall not really

Said absolutely. Genuine deadeye

 

[StCicatriz]

Did he bully Schoenmaker?

They found out he was from south Australia
