2024 Draft Thread.

How ridiculous was the Northern Academy talent in the Futures Game, thankfully the new NGA rules come in next year.

Does anyone know the return from having back to back picks? It just reminds me of the Essendon complete failed 2020 draft. I feel like having separation between your first round picks forces you to scrutinise the choices more. Leaning more toward splitting 8 if we get it at the moment.

how bout them apples

if you ever think about the bombers trio, have a think about this trio to make you feel better

Taking 8, 24 and F1st gives us plenty to deal with. The problem being strong demand for picks in the 10-20 range. I think if anything happens it'll happen on the night since clubs now target individuals and will pay handsomely. If we do it during trade period then it's us that pays the premium.

Apart from the player mentioned a couple of times in the thread. Do we know anyone else that we are into in the draft ?

Probably another reason we need to hold onto 24 and 43, they can be used to move up if a player we like slides.

I think there's more than a bit of posturing with 43. We have to trade with something..

Lalor, Travalgia and Lindsey are what l recall being mentioned. That would be froff material.

Lalor and Travaglia are the main two. Few whispers we are into Alix Tauru.

We are also one of the teams interested in Mac Andrews brother, Riak.

Unless we take him stupid early, Melbourne will probably match a later offer.
