We will be taking Smith, he predominately wore number 7 and Chugga is gone so it just makes sense. Yes he did wear 9 a bit but that's taken and no one wears 63.
Seriously though how could you go past him if he is still there.
Wickzki
Definitely Sam MacLure.

Wouldn't be surprised if Adelaide and North did a handshake deal and swapped picks.
I think in the scenario that FOS goes at North’s pick, we’d be much more likely to take Smith.
But I think it’s more than a 0% chance that we do take Langford, despite his lack of pace. And while that lack of pace means he’s not the perfect fit, I think there are definitely worse list fit players who will go in the top 10.
Swap F1s?
For Crows to take FOS?
Edit: that actually doesn’t make any sense. Crows to give F1 for Roos’ F2? That would be huge overs to move up 2 spots.

If that's the case there is nothing stopping us from doing a handshake deal with Melbourne if they want Tauru.
Take him at 2 then, only thing that’s certain in this draft is somehow with all the cards in your favor you will stuff up your draft hand

So you should be. Langford is the best at many things in this pool with too many making like his sprint speed is a big deal around here because of the raging hard ons for 'speed' and only leg speed at that.
Langford doesn't play slow. He creates space has an amazing kick amazing vision and is a brilliant mark for his size too. Best long and short kick of the top bunch. If north don't figure out a way to get Tauru by trading down you couldn't be disappointed with Langford at all. Don't think north can lose unless they overpay with 2 for Tauru
100% agree.
His running bounce total shows he doesn’t play slow. Marks it better than anyone.
He’d slot into HB from round 1 very nicely.
Wow, u got a pick right! but guess what - you're shit! so jog on

I'd love him here. Think he'd also play the half forward and link in the transition chain we've been so abysmal at really well.
Happy to get u Uber, we can afford it

For those of you questioning Jagga. Watch how well he hits up leading targets in the forward 50. Something we don’t have. Weights them beautifully.
He may have already fixed his handballing - if you watch his SANFL highlights, the handballing is a lot less loopy. Those loopy examples came more from the champs per memory. It may be, and he would not be the first to do this - Daicos was notorious for it - that he even perhaps intentionally made his handpasses a bit loopier against the lower quality teams in order to get the guaranteed one-two. Daicos and Sheezel do this even now in the AFL.

Speed yes, but what else is he ahead of Smith?
Then throw in the new injury concern with Draper!

This kid is one of the smartest footballers I’ve ever seen. Unbelievable balance, agility and decision making.
I judge footballers by how often they can face 50/50 situations and turn them into clear wins for your team and he does it so often, pouncing on loose balls, befuddling opponents and finding the teammate in the best position.
The best thing is that he basically directs his teammates on how to get into the best position to benefit from his possession. I just think he and Walsh would make such a great pairing, reliably racking up 60 touches per week alongside Cripps doing what he does.
He just looks every bit the multiple all Australian to me.

Jagga imo is a bit of a mix between NDaicos and Cotchin. He would fit nicely into our club

Jagga moves like Norman “Sel” Murray.
Will never forget how good he was when he kicked 88 goals for the year in 1941 while standing only 1.85m.

Smillie is now 195.5. KP size.

If we weren't looking to add speed to our midfield, Smillie would be the Cripps heir apparent. Man, I wish we had the Tigers draft hand.
