Rumour 2024 Rumours and Speculation Part 3

[GROTTO]

That's pretty much bang on I reckon, Draper but if not there Langford, the melts will come if we take Langford over Draper though. I'm fine with it, but others will be gathering pitch forks

If Langford is picked ahead of Draper at the Crows pick, Bigfooty will crash, dont expect to post for half an hour.

If Langford is our target wouldn't he be there a few picks later than 4? A trade back could be had surely.

Depends what the offer is and who we trade it to.

I'd take Bo Allan before Langford personally, why he's not in top 5 discussions I find mystifying after his WAFL finals campaign for Peel Thunder.

Exactly this..

Watch Port manage to snag him

 

[Blue Red and Gold]

I personally hope we just take Draper, I cant be arsed with all the return home conjecture every year.

Draper offers us some break away speed, I am over getting inside bulls.

Ironically the flavour of the day for the Blues at Pick 3 is now Langford.

This will be some 3D chess happening at our pick 4 if we land who we want.

Sneaky suspicion WC slid back with Bo firmly in their sights. They pick just before Port. No way they let the local gun go if available.

I had the top 5 picks being Smith, Lalor, FOS, Draper, Tauro in any order. Langford at 3 would be interesting . Makes pick 4 more valuable to some you would think.

That's no chance of happening, he wouldn't get past Melbourne if we went with someone else. The top 5 (excluding Ashcroft) will be out of Lalor, FOS, Draper, Langford and Smith, the chance of anyone else getting in there seems very slim at this stage. Recruiters seem quite set in stone on who the best 5 players are, it's just a matter of what order each of them are.

I thought both North and Melb were both keen on Tauru?

They are, but it won't be with a top 5 pick given the quality depth of mids at the top. If North take him it means they split pick 2 and traded down; if Melbourne take him it would be with 9. Twomey absolutely loves him, but his very likely draft position is still 8-12.

Langford is 7cm shorter than Curtin, they are nothing alike other than being left footers

What role do you think the club will use Curtin in next year ?

What role do you think Langford will play ?

Yeah good call there - I have no idea how people aren't talking about him more, he's seriously good. Hate comparing players but he's so similar to Bont around the footy.
