Preview 2024 National Draft Preview Thread Part Deux

[Colby Cheer Squad]

I've said it before and I'll say it again, the only place this bloke seems to be rated is on the BF North board.

Who was that tall forward from the draft a couple of years back who was expected to go top 10 at the start of his year and ended up going really late or rookie? I think he ended up at Carlton. Lemmey?

Yep, that's the one. Went in the late 40's.

 

[giantroo]

Is it to trade with us?

Yes.

 

[roos_fanatic08]

Crows wants Jagga.

'The Kangaroos are believed to be eyeing pick 4 and a future second-round selection to get the deal done.'

It is understood that Adelaide recently offered North Melbourne pick 4 and two future third-round selections in exchange for pick 2, but the offer was knocked back.

The Kangaroos are believed to be eyeing pick 4 and a future second-round selection to get the deal done.

Out Pick 2
In: Pick 4 and F2 (currently Pick 40)

That's not enough.

Faull looks like a quality forward. Smart, contested, has tricks.

Is one of those kicks to wind up and shank it or kick it straight to the oppo like Joe Daniher? He is a competitor, I'll give him that, just his decision making worries me, but pick in the late teens or early 20's I don't have a problem.

Pick 40?
I would have thought it would be closer to pick 25
Of course this will be pick 30+ after all the FA comps, FS & academy picks

Crows need to get someone else involved; we need something in the 20s this year, not next (at least while we've still got a full hand)

Why would they give up more. If they think we want Tauru, just call a bluff and let us pick him at 2. I think a F2 is fair enough

That's according to Lore's draft pick calculator for 2025, I think it's pretty accurate.

If Adelaide want to jump the que to get in ahead of Carlton for a specific player, they should be the ones coughing up to do so.

The key point left out was that the article states Tauru will be taken by Melbourne at 5 if he is still on the board.

And that there is a world that FOS would still be on the board at 4 as the blues would take Draper.

It’s not in an ideal world. But if we are locked into Tauru, it’s better grabbing another asset like a F2 rather than just picking him at pick 2.

We would only do this deal if we have settled on Tauru.

Why are we so obsessed with Tauru?

Has to be an early 20's 2nd rounder or F2 I think. Bombres paid pick 32 to move up one spot from 11 to 10 for Caddy.
So two spots an early twenties pick is probably fair to move up two spots. Up to Crows to find one.
Of course we'd want their F1 and give back our F2 but I could understand the Crows knocking that back.
Curtin trade was 11, 15 and F2 for 8 and 17 as another trade.

Apparently we're in desperate need for a key forward/defender..

 

[King Corey]

Trust the process.

Scott Clayton honed in on Jarrad Grant a long way out and wasn't afraid to back his judgement.

 

[The Filth Wizard]

If we want one of FOS or Draper one will be on the board at 4. Doesn't have to be for Tauru. It's a little bonus to still take one of our top guys.

That's according to Lore's draft pick calculator for 2025, I think it's pretty accurate.

That pick 40 is a F3. They'd need to move it with another F3 into the second round, hopefully to a bottom 8 side.

No way Adelaide’s F2 is pick 40

I suspect there's a lot of funny business going on because the top 7 or 8 players are fairly even, I mean were seriously not swapping out pick 2 for 4 and 30 odd next year.

Might be the minority here, but haven’t we had our share of ‘projects potential’ types? Is he a lock kpd or physically talented? Play goad where they want this kid to play and pick a certified talented mid

Takes me back to picking up a defender in EVW to be a giant mid. Even though he himself didn't think he could be a mid.

I've said it before and I'll say it again, the only place this bloke seems to be rated is on the BF North board.

You mean we could get GMan with pick 62 (mid 50's)?

 

[HumanMeatball]

lol we're going to psych you out of taking Lalor at 1 ain't we..

would seem unlikely

One of those quirks.

Like 80s US one hit wonders being able to sell tickets to shows here while they have to flip burgers to pay the bills back home.

G-train on track (ahem) to be the next Will Gayfer.

 

[shintemaster]

Why are we so obsessed with Tauru?

We're not. The media has decided we are because it allows the clubs they care about to get other players more easily.
