You are overrating Sheldrick. Him not getting a game at Sydney has nothing to do with his maturity - it has everything to do with his ability
Maybe I am I did really like him pre draft but he is putting up better VFL numbers than xon , west , culley , trew and on par with clarke on wafl numbers .

So guys like sheldrik and Deven Robertson are upgrades in that 20 - 30 players but in a much more desirable age bracket going forward

Keeping higher picks for the draft but using later picks on young guys who can't crack contending teams is a solid rebuild strategy

Finally! This is the draft our Purple friends down the road have been waiting for! The elusive flag is only one or two quality key forwards away and now with the unexpected dip in form, all of the stars are aligning for the Dockers to pick up a generational forward to lead their team to glory with a Top 10 draft pi...

Oh wait, never mind, carry on.
To make it even better the dockers pick they sent to them last year melbourne picked Jefferson a key forward who already has a bag of 4 and 3 in the VFL with Casey

I agree with your logic - I disagree with the name. Angus excelled a few years back as he was stronger than his peers. Playing against men is a different game & IMO he doesn't have that extra skill that will enable him to take that next step.
I agree on Roberston however - reckon he's a better option
 
No confirmation that sheldrik has re-signed with the swans .

Only 2 first rounders haven't from 2021 draft Hobbs and sheldrik ?

With the lack of inside mids available this draft and swans not playing Angus we should be in his ear



Well there goes that possibility I guess...


Happy with that.

Not a huge fan on how he goes about it. Would have improved Freo or Port and fit right in with them.

Four more in Melbourne good outcome all round.

But sheldrik has played a whole season of VFL against men ?

For a 19 year old he is holding his own .

I understand your hesitation but he was the best extractor is his draft year . Gave horne-Francis a bath 1 on 1 in the state champs .

Getting him back to West Coast with the lure of more game time for a lower pick is good business and exactly what we did with yeo and cripps

I guess I can live with a pick in the 40's. I do however think there is a whiff of Mcginnity v Cotchin about that match you refer to with Horn-Francis. Angus had built himself up for that match but no denying he played well.

I always thought Bwilliams was the more natural forward
Nah he was very much a tweener. He doesn’t show he has great forward craft and always been terrible in front. His athleticism and speed make a him a decent resting ruck up forward tho
Confirmed ACL for Georgiades

If we are interested, than combined with his form will be around the late second / third round pick mark
If he comes cheap then yeah do it. That said we have Waterman in the side and we also now need plan to find/blood a second genuine key forward into the team. Georgiades is good/talented to be in the b22 but he isn’t a key tall
 
Well….he’s unlikely to have less value.

He’ll stay at Port I reckon.

Or of course, Freo could always pay overs for him - next season’s forward messiah?
He would seriously entice freo but they’re at danger of having too many tweeners. Tabs is dud, corbett/ treacy both look like tweeners and Amiss very much gonna be in that category unless he develops a few parts into his game
 
You'd think it would be in Port's interest to hold on to him and hope he lives up to his draft number rather than sell at his lowest point.

He's out of contract, so might be a case of them taking what they can get if he wants out
 
I don’t expect the culture to change and be reinvigorated until Simpson leaves

Yawn. We’ve turned a corner on field. It’s the injuries whatever the cause that is pinning us to the bottom of the ladder.

The effort is better, but he still isn’t utilising a lot of players correctly, the way he was using Chesser was horrific

Nothing against Simmo, just think it’s time for a refresh for 2024.

I'm okay with Simpson.

A fresh coach would want immediate results.

And who's getting more out of this list with barely being able to field a team.
