[ROYAL EAGLE]

Yeah traded with us, 12 for 17 and 25 (before everything moved around with matching)

Ah thanks for that
Would of hoped for someone other than Tom Gross
Would rather us reach for Hamish Davis at that pick then the next on Charlie Nichols
and a Zac Johnston

Pick #25 GWS selects Oliver Hannaford

Greater Western Victoria / Victorian Country

In my view of GWS selections, we are still looking for midfield talent, speed and creativity ... as well as someone who can play a secondary defensive role. Had Tom Gross been available, I would have selected him here, and Jesse Dattoli was the other option - but both were gone. I did have a think about the tall talent still on the board - Jack Whitlock and Kayle Gerryn were of interest - but to my mind Hannaford completes the remediation for the loss of Perryman, Cumming and Peatling; with Hannaford a utility who can play multiple positions and has some defensive hitting power; likely to be able to handle midfield assignments at some point in the future. His slow 2km time did make me pause, but his in-game playing style does not reflect a lack of endurance; whilst highlighting his agility and ability to play in attacking bursts. Given the on-ground time that Peatling was actually doing in 2024, and the fact that he won't be expected to be an instantaneous gamebreaker in 2025, I think we can remediate concerns about his endurance.

AFL Draft Power Rankings: September 2024

With boys pathway seasons coming to a close around the nation, it's time for another instalment of our monthly AFL Draft Power Rankings.

LATE-SEASON STORMER

Hannaford has stormed into top 30 calculations on the back of his outstanding late-season form. Having been overlooked for a National Draft Combine invite, instead attending the Victorian state event, he has proven to be up to higher honours with some of the best big-time performances of any draft prospect. The powerful utility started the year as a midfielder/defender, but was thrust forward ahead of the National Championships and ended up being a game-winner there as GWV made a run for the Coates Talent League Grand Final. He’s powerful, hits hard, and has a ravenous appetite for the contest.

AUGUST RANKING: Unranked

LAST MONTH:

Hannaford’s six-goal haul in GWV’s quarter final upset of Geelong – the minor premier – helped establish his name as one to watch among the top 30 prospects. He kicked three consecutive final quarter goals in that game to help the Rebels come from behind and progress. His Grand Final exploits were also outstanding, despite a tough loss, never giving up to gather 24 disposals, nine tackles and a goal.

Sydney's pick up next ArdentEagle

Looking at What I picked for Richmond so far

They have the speed in Lalor and Dattoli
The inside bulls in Smillie and Langford

The Key defender in Trainor

And Key Forward in Shanahan

I missed on the pace of Marshall
And Hotton

 

[Lyyynnnchy]

West Coast trade even further back? lol…such a recent West Coast move…

Well, you can't argue the club doesn't have form!

What's the go with concussions? Is it something like 4 in 4 years and you're in the "Red zone"? Trainor's had 3 in a couple of years?

I think so but he’s worth the risk I have him as the best key defender in the draft

Pity you didn't take Hotton, we could have had the holy triumvirate of risks

Lalor-Hammy
Trainor-concussions
Hotton-ACL

I don't mind Trainor, could do well at the other end of the ground too. Not that keen on Shanahan as this draft looks to be the one to load up with speed and precision kicking, of course that could just be me wanting those attributes although Yze stated from the outset that he wanted elite kicks.

You needed the key forward and some have Shanahan rated in the top ten I think he’ll be fine as someone who watches a fair bit of VFL I rated him as the best available because he’s shown at VFL level he has the attributes to be a really good key forward

 

[ArdentEagle]

I'm just at work peeps.

I want to double check a few videos again.

Not sure if it's too left field for this pick but this tall looks a ripper

Just take him

Sydney - Thomas Sims
199cm KPF

I think he'll be the best forward and a very good 2nd ruck

Had a very respected board veteran suggest I take a closer look and I like what I saw.

Write up to follow

*I considered the other twin but I have other plans

Richmond again and again

 

[Off Tap]

With pick 20 the WCE select Tom Gross. I will do a write up after my next 2 picks at 28 and 29.

I don't mind this pick and wouldn't mind Gross with our actual 2nd pick. Doubt he lasts until 30 though.

Like the pick and he's the type I'd want for the Tigers over the Shanahan/Faull types. Our ruck stocks, whilst full, are extremely weak, Nank, then Ryan, who isn't strong enough, then 2 x cat B rookies in Hayes-Brown and Colina, neither have shown that they're AFL quality or ready. So taking a player who could fill both roles would be ideal.
