Analysis 2024 National Draft

if people here are worried about ball use then draft Langford and be done with it. I rather kept 12 and 14

I don't actually have favourites, more how I see kids transitioning to the next level

Clark has certainly been underwhelming at the next, just can't seem to get his hands on the pill, despite still never shirking a contest

Important year for him coming up, if he doesn't improve he might get cut

If we were to look back at Clark and see if there were any red flags at under 18 level,
I reckon they would be accumulation and bodysize for the role the plays. Also, lack of 2nd position if he cant make it as an onballer.

I think those are the things holding him back at AFL level at the moment. Sometimes the signs are obvious.

That said, it's still early days and while it's unlikely he becomes a star he could still be a decent player.

I think you've got FOS and SL too high in possessions, both should be 7's. Draper should be a 10 in separation from contest or FOS and SL should be 7's, Langford should be lower again. Draper is the best tackler of the lot, should be a 9. Lalor's endurance should probably be a 7. Also what alternative position could Harvey Langford play?

How would you rank those 5?

Also what alternative position could Harvey Langford play?

He'll be a freakish half forward midfielder or half back and then move into a centre bounce rotation and do ****ing well there too. Runs all day. Moves well just not 'fast', rarely second to the ball because he reads it faster.

"Really not just the depth but the positional variety. And for us, we're clearly looking for some speed and some run and some key position depth behind the ball. So we'll get after that. We feel like there's some players that will be around the market we can bring into our footy club that can make a difference.”

translation anyone.

I'm no expert but anyone else have the feeling that Langford is going to wind up the best player from this draft? I get we have a one-paced midfield and we really need to address that. But whoever ends up with him I think is going to really happy in a few years.

He doesn’t say it there I know but defs heard him say run and ball use when someone asked him going into the trade period what he was looking for.

Makes me think Jagga or fos
