AFL Draft Power Rankings: New No. 1 emerges as we close in on draft

ESPN.com.au's expert Chris Doerre has revealed his AFL Draft Power Rankings for the month of October and we have a new player at the top.

www.espn.com.au

Knightmares most recent power rankings for the draft. Interesting to note Sinn has dropped out of the top 20. MJ sits 8th. Andrew’s weaknesses read like he’s going to be a very long investment for whoever selects him

 

[DanWCE]

Didn’t he decide not to nominate? Or am I getting him confused with someone else?

Yep. I'm guessing we were trying to persuade him otherwise but as Subi VC he opted to see the season through.

Knightmare confirmed Dogs/Pies fan, and is trying to minimise the draft points needed for F/S.

I actually find myself wanting SPP too. He's no world beater but we're not really in a position to trade any of those in at the moment. We have a gaping hole in our list with respect to under 25yo mids - at least adding SPS and SPP give us a CHANCE of making a smoother transition than simply relying on the likes of Edwards, West and Trew. SPP at least adds a genuine point of difference with his skill set.

Not sure what gets it done. Next year's first is out of the question while a future second seems to lack incentive for Port to trade him while contracted. The best we can hope is they feel we plummet to the bottom 4 and that pick could be in the early 20's. Doesn't really add up to me though.

he has baggage but sould help with our contested ball and defensively in the middle. That said he needs to be a pure mid. I like the Idea of him purely cause I’d love to see Yeo having he flexibility of being an outside option at times where we can use his pace and footskills. Also becomes an a contested marking threat like he was in 2018.

The fact that we're into both SPS and SPP feels like a board meme brought to life.

Lewis Young to Carlton could shut down the Blues chase for Jarrod Brander. Still wonder if Brander gets to the Cats eventually, even as a delisted free agent

Be pisssed if he walk to Geelong of all clubs....

If he nominates Geelong, the price is 2x 1sts.

Not sure I see the correlation in his rankings? He has both Darcy and Daicos in the top 3

Does he have the tank to be a full time mid though. Let’s face it he’ll just be replacing Ah Chee. If he had the tank I’d like to make him a purely defensive mid

He's gotta be the new Priddis doesn't he? Hunt the ball, win the ball, distribute by hand, and if someone else gets the ball first, tackle them and tackle them well.

Twomey reckons we were into Greg Clark at the MSD

But he did not nominate for the MSD!!! Great insights to how Cal works.

I'm joking, but pick 2 is cheaper than pick 1

Basically if North don't bid on them it saves the Pies the equivalent of pick 37, and the Dogs just over the value of pick 50. Those are the two biggest saving you could possibly have in the whole bidding system, and both picks would have enough currency to move an AFL player with some games under their belt.

 

[DanWCE]

I've answered Fivey, but I believe the insinuation was we were encouraging him to nominate as we wanted to grab him. He was committed to seeing out the season at Subi.

Surely Norf show some shinboner spirit and place both bids. It’s inevitable the pies and dogs will still go for it

 

[WCE_Talk]

I've seen a fair bit of him too, and he's very good and yes he can play in the middle as he has for Sandy already. I think most posters, including myself would just prefer a true midfielder with our first. It is very likely a good number of true midfielders of high quality will be available at our pick, so everyone is nervous we'd take him here over say Johnson.
If we had pick 16, he'd probably be one I'd want to get at our pick. But pick 10, there will be a true mid there.

I agree mate, as I said, Sinn wouldn’t be my first choice, I just don’t think he’d be a bad pick at all if we went down that route. I want to find another first rounder somehow, MJ and any one of Goater, Sonsie, Draper, Wanganeen-Milera, JVR or Sinn would be awesome.

What little I have seen of him, he looks very outside and isn’t he injury prone ?

The Vic M v Vic C game I didn’t think he showed anywhere near enough to be in the conversation as a mid first round selection.

I actually though Jake Soligo from ( Vic M ), looked a better prospect then Sinn.

Interestingly Soligo hasn’t got much love on the draft board .
What are your thought on him.

Your comment regarding Sinn are different to a couple of my Victorian mates who have been watching him.
What do you like about his game?

Injuries have been the reason he’s sliding mate, was viewed as a top 5 pick before the injuries

He has speed, is an elite line breaker, good foot skills, in general a smart decision maker, he captains Sandringham as well, being a leader is a trait we value highly, I just think Sinn’s skill set is basically what our list lacks, he’d walk into our best 22 fairly quickly

About the only similarity between SPP and Ainsworth is that their disposal sucks.

Maybe he meant he bogged on his phone

Norf have an obligation to the league to bid on both. Just as we did with McDonald and forced their hand. Pretty glad they matched!

Gotcha. Anus from Wish.

Why does everyone take everything so literal? Relax.

Both have dodgy family members too...
