I really trust walls in getting the best bang for buck.
I would only question the ras selection out of our high end draft picks..

Interesting take, he certainly does not play like a Kako or Champion. He has that ability to play in the midfield and even during the championships was at center bounces. He does have an uncanny knack of kicking goals, with the flexibility to move into the midfield. I would prefer those attributes at AFL level as there is multiple roles he can play.
The selection was fine at the time. Johnson sliding meant we had 1 too many inside mids, Brodie came on better than expected, Mundy left a hole so we recruited JOM. All these things happened after his selection and have robbed Ras of more opportunities. He’s a gun in the WAFL so assume there is an AFL player in there once we have game time for him.

Its going to have to wait a bit. Once a new weekend of games becomes available I'm focused on those for at least the next few days.If you have time could we prewtty please have a highlights vid
I had intended to do Berry last week but just ran out of time. A couple of other projects on the go.
Yep I would agree with that. Feel like we have a few of that type. I guess what I should have said is that I don't think Berry's type is the BEST fit for Freo right now. He is a perfectly fine player, but I would prefer a Kako type of two of equal talent were available.

Berry and Lindsay top of my list, if we could squeeze in Travaglia as well I’d be stoked, then trade the saints 2nd into next year to someone who’s desperate.
I'd add Lalor to those 3, absolute beast.
If Draper slips to us, is he worth a look?

Lalor is the POD who’d be worthy our top pick.
Rest seem more like accumulators. maybe even a bit vanilla,
In terms of where each player might be selected
Travaglia > Lindsay > Berry (Those would be my rough thoughts on where they will be picked)

Yeah, not sure berry will last to pick 18, think two of the 3 is the best we can hope for if we keep our current picks.
I like this fella as well. Pretty sure he played mainly forward in the champs, but must have been mid for this colts game. 190 cm and very athletic.
Claremont's Hamish Davis has been rewarded for an extraordinary performance at the weekend, named the Round 15 EGT Bright Light Nominee.
Davis had 40 disposals and kicked a goal as the Tigers took care of Swan Districts by 33 points.
Hamish DavisDavis is a strong-bodied forward able to kick goals in a variety of ways. He was WA's best avenue to goal, but on the weekend he transformed Claremont's midfield with an utterly dominant display. Davis had 40 disposals and a goal, bursting from stoppage and finding targets inside 50 all game.5 days ago

Agreed. You'd have to think Kako taken out of the open draft only raises the price on Berry too
Watch his highlights and tell me what you think?
I'm not watching highlights until after trade week. Don't want to get attached until I'm reasonably sure we'll be picking early.

Footy Stuff has Taj Hotton rounds 1-3 on his youtube channel I dove into a few weeks ago. I don't see how someone would label him as a small forward.
Great athlete, highly competitive but poor footskills imo. Looks like he played 80% mid about 20% as a genuine target forward not a small forward, because he is elite overhead.
Highlights I’ve seen didn’t encourage me..feels like a vibe pick, like Erasmus
