I'm sure Richmond will be looking to do something with picks 18, 20, 23. Pick 24 will be traded for a future 1st prior to day two of the draft. They'll want to use 1, 6, 10, 11 and use two of those latter three picks to trade up. 18 and 20 for Saints 8 would be ideal. That would give the Tigs 6 picks at the ND, which I think is the number they'd like.
No matter what you think of SOS, a move to trade 8 for two of Tigs picks from 18, 20 and 23 is something he would do. It’s smart as he has read the room and realises that the Tigs are not trading any of their earlier picks. So get in early to accept two later picks before everyone else. Tigs then can get their men Smilie and Allen at 6 and 8
I always find this time of year a little bizarre. Someone like Allen is now worth two first round picks; sure he looks like he could become good but it seems crazy to me.

Getting exciting now... Am i right in feeling like Jagga Smith seems like a clone of Sam Walsh??

Draper has C Judd traits, is it only that he is not from Vic that has him rated picks 5-8?

Also starting to feel like Ben Campo could be the steal of the draft... What was the reason both he and Lucas didnt play senior level SANFL?

Im sorry, no. Jagga is nothing like Walsh. Jagga is more like a Butters.

Guaranteed list spots at CFC?
 
Didn’t get that at all from what Agresta said, the live trade he was talking about he said the club was prepared for every scenario. When asked about Jagga and Draper he talked more about Jagga, he didn’t say Draper is the one to replace Crippa.

Later on when Riley asked Cal which clubs he was was keeping an eye on for the live trading, he said the Giants and Bombers. There was no mention of the Kangas trading pick 2
Well it was quiet in here. SMFH. Why doesn’t it surprise me it was you. I’m out. I’ll PM the ones that matter.

Maybe in a normal year. But Tigs have 1 in every 3 picks inside 24. Thats expansion club numbers!! It makes sense they maximise two of their later picks to get another top 10 (or play the futures market)

Jagga has the professionalism and leadership of Walsh. Runs the arcs really well to help out in defence and up forward. I feel like he sees the game even better than Walsh, and is more efficient, but maybe not as penetrating.

I don't get any sense that Draper has the tackle busting or stand in a tackle and get the ball away capacity that Judd had.

I'd say the SA thing, plus the chronic pars defect would lower Draper's value. If it doesn't affect him, he will be electric. If it does ... could be ongoing.
 
Interesting Mick mentioned Bens vertical leap.

Based on his preseason testing Ben would have won both the standing and running vertical jump at the combine (my research, not from mick)
One would like to think that with such strong jumping abilities, with the right training the Campos should be able to improve their sprint times to under 3 sec for the 20m. To me they look like raw colts that haven't grown fully into their bodies

Definitely sounds like something SOS would do but I think they should be desperately targeting mids. They have the worst midfield in the league right now and nothing coming through. Should be after Smillie and Allan / Reid. Going for half back flanks and trading down to get who knows what would be madness.
 
He didn't nominate for the draft:

Also:
"To be eligible for the SSP, players must have nominated for the most recent AFL Draft or previously been on an AFL list. "

From this, I don't believe he can be picked up at all - ND, RD, PSD, SSP, MSD - he's ineligible for all of them, unless he was previously on an AFL list, and I don't think he was.
The West Australian media are advising he’s been invited as a train on with WCE following the draft and can only be signed as an SSP.

In which case, we really aren’t in with a chance (unless they don’t pick him and we watch him from afar ala Hudson O’Keefe).
 
Thats garbage. Ran a 3.0 20m sprint at his combine. Has great endurance so can stay at max speed for longer. Often breaks away from opponents and runs with the ball.

I wouldnt call him fast but would be at least average if not slightly above as far as afl onballers. There arent actually that many mids that are really fast.
Hes also a smart runner more than a fast runner

For what it’s worth, my interpretation of what Agresta said was quite different to your’s as well, Sheephead. But in the end, does it matter? You might be right, I might be wrong. But I can guarantee there will be a new player in navy blue taken tomorrow night, and both of us will be behind him 100%
 
Correct, I agree. But he has lost his pace since the back injury. I love Walshy and wish him back to his past best, but chances are what we have now is what we have got for the rest of his career. He's lost his speed since the back issue

Yep - just like how Charlie was gonna be shithouse forever after his knee issues :rolleyes:

Good observation, i think unlike the Daicos and Ashcroft boys who were trained to be AFL players from such a young age Campo has allowed Ben and Lucas to develop naturally.
 
My dream scenario based on being a supporter and amateur recruiter with no real idea

Pick 3: Harvey Langford (Gun Mid)
Pick 38: Harry O'Farrell (Young Tall Defender)
Pick 63: Ben Camporeale (Mid)
Pick 68: Lucas Camporeale (HBF)

Rookie 1: Will Hayes (Speedy Small Forward)
Rookie 2: Isiah Winder or Coby Burgiel (Both have speed and talent and are still young)

SSP: Liam McMahon (Great person who can play KPF, KPD or 2nd ruck)
Burgiel i read in a recent article is training on at WCE over the preseason after talks with new coach Andrew McQualter, they’re giving him a chance after his first 2 seasons were wiped out by injuries…
I’m a fan as well….
