[bombreys]

Someone with an X factor project type please

Rosa>>>>>>>Dodo

That was the first two! A no fuss Zak Johnson type for mine

 

[fairbump_playon]

43 and F4 to St Kilda for F2 iirc


it was 45 by the time we traded it because of a couple bid matches at 41

Bargain

That will be 25 or so

 

[Old Campaigner]

Looked like the swans might’ve called Collingwood bluff with that academy bid and now the pies are stuck with someone they didn’t really want

 

[jdstorm]

I have it as 2 firsts and 2 seconds, which based on this year's R24 ladder is picks 5, 8, 25, 26.

Nothing in rounds 3 or 4 but who needs 'em anyway.

Given our list situation I’d expect were not to worried about our ability to pick up 3rd rounders or later via trade.

Going to have a few players to clear out if we don’t make a miraculous jump up the ladder next season

Not bad.

C'est la vie

 

[carnthedons]

Norf with Urquhart 2.0. Wonder if he’ll be as good as Pendlebury, can’t imagine he’d touch Gavin’s level

 

[gdaytiger2001]

Isn't this the super draft and next years a dud?

Duursma is up next year, there is some great top end talent it just isnt as deep but we are also 12 months out so a lot can happen.

 

[jdstorm]

With Davis and Day Wicks still on the board I think we pass on Nguyen and hope he goes cat B

 

[JayJ20]

So Archer Day-Wicks hopefully.

 

[jdstorm]

Scott looking happy/smug with whoever they are getting at this pick

 

[BratPack]

Speedster. Would have preferred Davis or Day-Wicks but I'll take it.

 

[Yoda_]

rookie draft we go

 

[Old Campaigner]

Is that is done for the night?

 

[faible]

Unwin looks like a very GWS selection. Hard running, speedy, agile, smart smaller forward-mid.

 

[carnthedons]

179cm left footed speedy mid/forward from Cobden ey?

 

[brutus76]

Loving the country kids.

Isn't Cobden where they make Western Star butter?

 

[BratPack]

Is that is done for the night?

Most likely we take Nguyen still, but we might risk sliding him to Cat B too

 

[Pweter]

Duursma is up next year, there is some great top end talent it just isnt as deep but we are also 12 months out so a lot can happen.

Sharp from Central Districts too. Playing SANFL seniors including finals as a bottom ager and didn't look out of place in the finals.

 

[JayJ20]

I like what we've done in the draft. Kako, a key forward that is incredibly mobile and a good contested mark to partner with Caddy, a quick HB with good skills to add to Roberts and El-Hawli and a speedy small forward.

All of that and banked an F1 and an F2.

 

[DERO]

Loving the country kids.

Isn't Cobden where they make Western Star butter?

Zac Merrett country.

 

[jdstorm]

So 2 SFs, 1 HB and 1 Ruck/Forward Project.

All have at least 1 elite trait and decent kicking skills.

going to be a few nice additions to the VFl squad.

 

[Lore]

We have a couple more picks right at the end (trade one out, but list spot is still open so our next pick after the last round becomes available).

Might pass on them though, I think we have the list minimum now? Is anyone counting?

 

[Corleone]

So with the addition of Gerreyn that makes our ruck stocks as follows;

Goldstein
Draper
Bryan
Visintini
Gerreyn

You would have to think they expect to lose one of Draper or Bryan next year. Or perhaps Gerreyn is another piece of capital for a H.Reid play.

 

[Lore]

Actually we have 3 available picks so 3 available senior spots. If we pass now we'll be going to the PSD to fill at least 1 more of those
