Brownlow Medallist
That’s a great idea - if we pick him tomorrow, I’ll consider changing my Nic to JaggaDay
heres to swimming with bone legged womenAbsolutely....no jagga bombs
Yep, would love to see this happen.
Out of all the top prospects Lalor is the one for me that I think could be a miss.
Something just doesn’t sit right with him for me, I just think he looks fantastic doing average things (doing them very well - but avg none the less eg absolutely perfect form taking a lead up grab - looks great but it’s a lead up grab).
It seems backwards but I can see him being a good player - FOS, Jagga, Langford, Draper (if he stays fit) just seem to have a little something extra to them.
It’s also very likely, I’m very much mistaken, but it’s my gut feel
Hits the scoreboard consistently. goal kicking mids are gold

I’m the opposite. A few things going in his favour imo,
He has missed a lot of football/development, his trajectory is heading up and he has a late birthdate.
Obviously he, like anyone could be a bust but everything is heading in the right direction hence why he has flown up the draft boards.
If he was 7 weeks younger we would be frothing over him for next season.

Excuse the intrusion.
Round 1 will be a nightmare for Richmond regardless. Our midfield as you’ve said is garbage, however, Richmond is not concerned about 2025. The club knows the condition our list is in and is drafting for 4 years down the track. If you draft Jagga he will in the short term with a good midfield around him, appear to be the gun selection but longer term I’m not sure. He’s a gun little player and I think should have gone pick 1.
He’s less of a risk than Lalor, FOS etc.
I’m hopping you take Draper and Jagga falls but I doubt it. If you draft him I have no doubt you’ve got a good player. You can never be sure they’ll be stars but he shows great promise and determination.

Might want to check your anterograde along with the attitude if you're Gunna bang on about memory.
Of Cody didn't elude to the fact it was future orientated then let me state it outright.

We’ll find out tomorrow night.

'Twas the night before Draftmas, when all through the land,
Not a poster was ranting (lest they be banned!);
The phantoms were posted, each pick with great care,
In hopes to predict which one will go where;
The children were nestled all snug in their beds;
While visions of Juddy danced in their heads;
And Ma in her Onesie, and I in me cap,
Had just settled our brains for a long evenin' nap,
When out on the lawn there arose such a clatter,
I sprang from my bed to see what was the matter.
Away to the window I flew like a flash,
Tore open the shutters and threw up the sash.
The moon through the clouds bore a silvery glow,
Gave a lustre of midday to objects below,
When what to my wondering eyes did appear,
But the bluebagger hovercraft - Micky Voss in the rear,
With a little man driving so lively and quick,
I knew in a moment he must be St. Nick.
He rapidly flipped through the stats and each game,
And he whistled, and shouted, and called them by name:
"Now, FOS! or Draper! Is it Lalor or Jagga!
Or Smillie! or Harvey! Which one for a 'Bagger?
Then on to the next pick, let's find a great tall!
Then the twin Campos, and that will be all!"
A wink of his eye and a twist of his head
Soon gave me to know I had nothing to dread;
He spoke not a word, but went straight to his work,
And filled all the rankings; then turned with a jerk,
And laying his finger aside of his nose,
And giving a nod, from the spreadsheet he rose;
He sprang to his seat, to his team gave a whistle,
And away they all flew like the down of a thistle.
But I heard him exclaim, ere he drove out of sight—
“Happy Draftmas to all, and to all a good night!”

I know it’s been said many times, but it was great work getting up to pick 3.
I had a quick Look at the Saints board and many are understandably lamenting the fact that they are sitting just outside the bracket for the top mids, when they need a quality mid so badly.

I don’t buy into the fast fad if your agile and quick thinker you will find space to give and get.
So many so called fast players run them selves into trouble or confuse there teammates as there unpredictable then just bomb it long.Jagga has bit of diesel he sees the game unfold and tries to set a play beyond what is immediate.
Draper is great but he will turn it over and that hurts.
Draper isn’t playing midfield day one so half back where we are stacked.
Jagga plays forward and impacts day one.
I see this as a more positive push for a flag in a three year time frame.
Plus I think Jagga is better smarter player not as fast but fast and agile enough add footy brain and he tops Draper.
Draper has great qualities running through the line at speed breaking zones etc.
When I say better I think he pips him enough it’s not dramatic but he’s my choice from limited highlights as layman who loves footy but has a gut feel rooted in my limited knowledge

Definitely Sam MacLure.

Allegedly they have tried numerous times to trade up but have found no takers (including North) at the price they're willing to pay.
