Review 2024 National Draft Thread Part Deux - Welcome FOS, M.Whitlock, L.Urquhart & River Stevens

[billnats]

This a pisstake?
Dawson is a baby who doesn’t know what position he will settle in

Comben can’t play more then 15 games a season

Logue has played 3 good games for the club

Corr is 30 and out of contract….

Whacks Dawson for being a baby because we don’t have the picks to select another baby

 

[SKD]

F1 for both Whitlocks at 26/27

 

[The Nostradamus]

our caleb daniel pick is 5 picks away

there are both whitlocks and shanahan still available

now 4 picks away....

 

[Sphynx]

Swans surely take NSW boy Shanahan here.

 

[Arathrawn]

How did we get out of the draft?

By bringing in 3 leaders with premiership experience. That 25 for Daniel end up being around 30 and the 40odd for Parker both end up being completely speculative.

 

[koshari]

Because of the media narrative. They have missed a trick putting all their eggs into a one draft basket.

Baseless. That group will grow together.

 

[shinboner magic]

GWS time expires again and then they call out Herman’s best mate

 

[Woolly Mammoth]

A lot of clubs overlooking these supposed grouse key forwards...

Exactly. If they are that good, how come Hawthorn or Geelong haven't swooped in and nabbed them with a customary, mysteriously one sided pick trade? (you know, the classic cats 'pick #354 in the 2073 draft, a Lynx aftershave and showel gel gift pack and a half eaten mars bar for pick #21')

 

[Sphynx]

now 4 picks away....

Yep, absolute shocker at the time. Disaster now.

 

[Flawed Genius]

Sydney on the phone.

 

[The Nostradamus]

Yep, absolute shocker at the time. Disaster now.

had to either offer up our f2 for daniel or walk away

we had fisher who can play the daniiel role

 

[bhoysdontcry67]

I give up on this club. This recruiting team has sent us back again. We finished 2nd last and only had 1 pick inside the top 24

Strong contender for top melt, anyone beat that?

 

[LeFtBehinD]

A Shanahan pick 60 slide on the cards?

 

[GoRoos2023]

lololol

It’s my process

 

[Sticksphat]

I'm not sure our decision to draft Goad and Dawson was based on what this draft was looking like a year out. Both those picks made sense when you looked at our list profile.

But yes, this time last year, the draft wasn't known so much for its key position stocks as it was for its midfielders.

Two players described as Key Forwards selected so far and both are only 195 cm, the same height as Smillie (a mid). I wonder if there is a genuine lack of AFL level KPF height amongst this group?

 

[Lomas]

Baseless. That group will grow together.

It’s too much. Historically there are misses they have over exposed themselves to, not to mention having so many players hit free agency together.

 

[Passmore]

We absolutely should not. The opportunity to trade F1 is long gone

Once Tauru was off the board we just pocket that.

 

[nicko74]

I give up on this club. This recruiting team has sent us back again. We finished 2nd last and only had 1 pick inside the top 24

Off ya toddle then

 

[SWMD]

Richmond set up their future forward line in one hit, must be nice.

What this means for us, is that they're less likely to pick a tall ahead of us in 2025. Though likely a mid anyway, but still.

They get two talls in the teens, we get the best tall of 25.

 

[Scylla]

Think we’re in play with Sydney here. Future first swaps?

 

[krakouers]

Harry another one with a few kangaroos loose in the top paddock.

So the rumours are confirmed?

 

[Friday Night Lights]

Big Kayle still available too

 

[Colby Cheer Squad]

Why does it feel like tigers have reset their entire list in one draft and we are 5 drafts into a rebuild and still don’t have 1 ****ing key forward!!!

Key difference being that they had several premiership players at peak career age eager to be traded interstate. Throughout our rebuild, we have not had those sorts of assets to trade for picks.

Sydney on the phone.
