I'm Gunnar hedge my bets on an imminent multiple quote space turd special.
Chump posts absolutely nothing like Gunnar.

It's impossible to confuse Gunnar/Sweet Jesus for anyone else on this site, tbh.
 
USA draft based sports do, to an extent.

It’s basically a combination of talent identification, biometrics (that’s the wrong term, I’ve forgotten the correct term), and a statistical approach on the type of players to draft where, and where to trade picks in the draft.

I do like the idea of viewing picks as lottery tickets and the more you take, the more chance of winning.

This is going to blow some posters' minds on this site, but there are lotto numbers that statistically are drawn more often than others.

If you have an online for TheLott, they even tell you the likelihood that numbers get picked.

Thanks. I went and searched his stuff. It's obvious we're not the same person. But I did try and find some stuff I diagreed with. So far:

Lambasted some dude for saying Le Cras was being played out of position
Lamented that we won 8 games on year instead of 4 and missed out on 2x top 5 picks
Opined that we had a gun side because for no other reason than we had Judd, Cousins, Kerr, Cox
Said Beau Water was over rated

I'm trying to find what his thoughts on Priddis were because I thought he was a spud and wanted to trade him around his Brownlow time.

I haven't found him saying any stupid shit yet. But he's not me.
 
Probably between picks 5 and 15 in this years draft.

Seriously.
I don't believe we have a pick there. I assume next year we will have another top 5-ish pick. Cutting it fine considering we probably need a gun KPF as well.

Also, there will be that player between 5 and 15. Probably just one though. How do you know which one? The answer is we don't and nor do the clubs. That's why that top 3 pick is so important - you have much better odds of guessing correctly.

The issue with Gunnar wasn't his opinion, it was his semantics and the way he played devil's advocate.

There's a reason he was banned from this board and constantly got banned from the main board.

With no disrespect to anyone meant, I'd be entirely unsurprised to find out he had high-functioning autism, if that was ever the case.

Infuriating poster to engage with.

The posts I read, he's pompous. And yes, potentially on the spectrum.
 
Any chance Chump Change can get a red card so the rest of us can have a rest? Even a day. For the love of god let us rest.
Why?

I'll admit he was a bit of a twat when he first started posting but he's tempered his language a fair bit.

You don't have to engage with him if you don't want.

Let's not 'cancel' people, simply because we have a difference of opinion, especially when a lot of those wanting to cancel said poster are guilty of the exact same behaviour they complain about.

Potentially two tall mids in this years draft.

Mattaes Phillipou and Cam Mackenzie.

I don’t believe there’s a Dusty Marin or Petracca type in this draft, not one who can run through midfield.

Wardlaw could be a mini Oliver, but a big part of what makes Oliver, is his size and height.

I do believe there looks like a good group of mids who could be at that Brayshaw level of quality (not plays like).

But you never know how a kid will turn out.

Sure, go with God Chump, but for love of God - some brevity, please.

You do realise that other posters keep on bringing it up. They like it. They want to create an argument. You need to talk to them. I'm not following them around and quoting them.

And they have better information about 20 to 23 year olds which is completely different to 17 and 18 year olds who for many are still growing during the 2 years run up to the draft
 
Hewitt was BOG (ok, maybe jefferies or whatever his name is). But some of the ball handling skills that Ashcroft has (which I've seen him have in other games) is a class above. I see some risk in Hewitt (is he Cripps or is he SPP, or somewhere in between). With Ashcroft, I'm pretty sure he's going to be a gun - just not Dusty/Cripps/Fyfe gun.
Ashcroft is class but he's 180cm and while he isn't slow he's not setting any records.

Good in close and by foot in space.

I'm across bell curves and SD. The problem is that you are deciding who is at the edge of the bell curve before they start their career.

Interesting that you post your top 5 and Busslinger isn't in it? What is the point of this conversation? Sounds like you just want to have an argument? Or do you in fact want to take him with our top pick?

And;

Bont, Dust, Oliver etc.

Where are we going to get ours?

This draft not sure that level of quality is there. It is a difficult draft to follow with all the covid breaks etc over the past two years. We are seeing u18 championships at least and there is more football being played.

You are assuming that at pick 3 (Ashcroft to Lions assumed top 2) we will on average get access to at A+ elite mid. My view is the mid we aremore than happy to draft will be there at pick 5.

And if he isnt Busslinger looks like a really nice pick up at 5. Or Hewett or Clark or Tsatis.

I get Andy Brayshaw vibes from Wardlaw tbh, from what I've seen.
