AFLW 2024 - Round 6 - Chat, game threads, injury lists, team lineups and more.
And contribute SFA for the rest of the game though. Which is not Horse's fav kind of player - hence we don't have one.
My favourite example of this is Adam Saad.“pick 6 is a good starting point for Rioli”
**** me the VIC media is ******ed.. if it was Dan Rioli trying to be traded from Sydney it’d be something like pick 30 seems reasonable and fair.. Sydney don’t have much leverage in this one
6+more for Rioli is ridiculous. He isn't Lachie Neale.Actually think it will be more than pick 6 will be the starting point though.
Might be something like pick 6 +f2 for Rioli +f3. Basically means downgrading their 2nd to the first couple of picks in the third round.

I haven't looked too closely at this years crop of talent.
But we can get two very good players at our picks likely starting at about pick 21 or so.
I am leaning towards getting forwards. Maybe a small forward and a KPF, or a genuine mid that can genuinely play forward as well.
A few of players at our picks according to RookieMeCentral. I expect there are others that our recruiters have in mind.
I am quite excited if we take these picks to the draft in what is expected to be a deep draft.
Pick 21
Jesse Dattoli
Northern Knights| Forward-Midfielder
height:179cm
D.O.B:07-07-2006
BOUNDLESS ENERGY
Dattoli’s national carnival and promising end to the Coates Talent League season has seen him accelerate into top 25 calculations. The lively small forward boasts terrific craft around goal and always tries to create something with ball in hand. He also holds his own at the stoppages and has been utilised in midfield outside of his representative duties with Vic Metro, where he proved to be an important link player on the wing or as a high forward. Dattoli produced a trio of three-goal games at Coates Talent League level this year and has racked up as many as 35 touches while turning out between his school football commitments.
AUGUST RANKING: #27
LAST MONTH:
Coming into Wildcard Round on the back of two three-goal games, Dattoli starred with 35 disposals, eight inside 50s and a goal to guide Northern into finals. He copped a tough matchup inside 50 against Oakleigh, but still managed to get his hands on the ball with 21 disposals (15 handballs) and two behinds. At his best, he is capable of turning games on their head both as a forward and midfielder – he proved that late in the season.

Pick 23
Cooper Hynes
Dandenong Stingrays| Midfielder-Forward
height:190cm
D.O.B:28-02-2006
THE HYBRID
Few can compete with the pure weight of numbers Hynes has produced at Coates Talent League level, forming a formidable one-two punch with fellow Dandenong Stingrays co-captain Harvey Langford. The midfielder-forward was blooded in the Vic Country Under 18s side last year and has backed up his promise with averages of 25.3 disposals, 4.0 marks, 5.0 inside 50s, and nearly two goals per his 12 club appearances to date. He’s hard to tie down due to his size but has improved his running ability and has always had a good eye for goal, or teammates in better positions to score.
AUGUST RANKING: #21
LAST MONTH:
Hynes helped lead Dandenong to the preliminary finals on the back of two-goal hauls in both Wildcard Round and the quarter finals. He then finished with a steady 17 disposals and five tackles against eventual premier, Sandringham having made a terrific start to proceedings. He looms as exactly the type of damaging, big-bodied midfielder-forward which is currently in vogue.

Some Key forwards
Pick 19
Jack Whitlock
Pick 20
Jobe Shanaham
Pick 24
Jonty Faull
Gonna look back at the Rioli deal in 24 months time and its just going to be Weller 2.0
Rioli won't add much to GCS that Flanders isn't already doing back there and Richmond will probably get like a Lalor with that pick to build them back up to top 8 contention when Tassie arrive
We don't have to sit here and pretend it is a reasonable deal though.GC are dead desperate. It will end up being 6 plus a few swaps, assume a second for a third or something.

Haven't you spoken in favour of Travaglia and Trainor?Really hate these hybrids thats just another name for 'no position but talented'. For every good one there are 9 that never find their position. Give us two talls, OR one tall a small lockdown defender or a small forward. Feel we take a key forward at one, genuine one, if Shanahan or Whitlock are there we shock consider. No woder we are trying to get up for Armstrong but can't see there being any takers.
Quarterback haha.I think it's more than reasonable. People have to realise the quarterback defender is close to the most important position to get right in your team, every attack is set up by them.
True Flanders literally cost GCS 6 goals in the game against us from TOs through kicking. Is Rioli a game changing improvement on Powell, Budarick and Uwland tho.Flanders didn't play HBF for the last 8 weeks. Played as a genuine midfielder. That's the plan and unlike Flanders...Rioli can genuinely kick

I thought of you when I wrote that. Heeney is your classic Mid/FWD. Papley is a FWD/MID. Both play both with aplomb. I wouldn't mind more players like that in the team.Really hate these hybrids thats just another name for 'no position but talented'. For every good one there are 9 that never find their position.

Quarterback haha.
The guy is a half back flanker. He is a pretty good player. He isn't a superstar.

Some sanity on Ladhams. Good.Some extra info from another press conference with Keane (video doesn’t seem to be uploaded anywhere)
Sounds like Ladhams likely to stay
Somebody asked about Wicks - had a positive exit meeting and fully invested
Sounds like we’re not looking at trading anyone in:
"In terms of areas we might need to address, we might look to do that in the draft," Keane added.
Sydney provide clarity on young gun's future, rule out exits for fringe pair: AFL trade news
"We'll see how that plays out."www.zerohanger.com
Powell off less disposals has a better KE% and 16% more metres gained in total.

Cor blimey, next thing you'll be asking him to value players that can get first use of the footy! Crazy talk.Well he might have wanted to watch the GF tape on Lohmann and then reassess his view of those types of players
