I'm hoping this weekend I can catch up on some footy that I have missed and make an updated list on interstate players mostly.

Nash 25I just expected a smidge more from both at this current time, but maybe also an indication of the times where list and development is far superior now, so gives less opportunity in the first 2-3 years compared to 5-8 years ago
Plus the
Worpel
Nash
Newcombe
Mackenzie
J.Ward
Group isnt overly deep and/or ceiling isnt that high
Excluding Will Day of course but that 2-6 best midfielders on the list group
They havnt given up a heap of capital for this group, so its fair there ceiling isnt great, but thats why they need to invest in this area
Yep, I did say a KPP and then a midfielder was more of a necessity than a small forwardNash 25
Worpel 25
Moore 24
Newcombe 23
Day 22
Macdonald 21
Mackenzie 20
D’Ambrosio 20
Ward 20
Weddle 19
That is a young and deep midfield with Weddle being the big bodied game breaker that rounds off what we already have. Not one of those 10 young men has peaked as an AFL footballer. We will draft best available with our 1st pick if we keep it. The biggest missing piece in our rebuild is a big bodied quality key defender to build our backline around long term. McCabe is a serious talent but he won’t fill that role, more an attacking secondary key defender. Lewis and Dear will be our long term key forwards with Chol more a mid term option as well as our 2nd ruckman game day.
Now, you're starting to lift.......looking forward to see what you have up your sleeve for the remainder of the season mate.The story of this draft is the emergence of KPP Talent in the last 12 months, It started with Shanahan showing potential last year as a strong marking forward, then the Whitlock twins especially Jack showing match winning composure, Faull having a strong finish to the year for GWV and for VC in an u17s game, Mraz, O'Farrell and Trainor showing high end defensive ability and great height for KPD players, Gerryn has looked good as a ruck/kpf and my own personal favourite in Lockwood who could be a surprise AFL KPD, Adrian Cole could also get a chance through the NGA and is a good shut down KPD, with the emergence of good KPP this draft looks stronger than first thought.
I never kick a good Vic like Davo! HahaC'mon WA, lets kick a Vic
Dodson and Nicholls have shown plenty for SA.The story of this draft is the emergence of KPP Talent in the last 12 months, It started with Shanahan showing potential last year as a strong marking forward, then the Whitlock twins especially Jack showing match winning composure, Faull having a strong finish to the year for GWV and for VC in an u17s game, Mraz, O'Farrell and Trainor showing high end defensive ability and great height for KPD players, Gerryn has looked good as a ruck/kpf and my own personal favourite in Lockwood who could be a surprise AFL KPD, Adrian Cole could also get a chance through the NGA and is a good shut down KPD, with the emergence of good KPP this draft looks stronger than first thought.
How do you rate this years talls vs last year? Eg O’Farrell, Mraz vs O’Sullivan, Croft, McCabe, Dawson etc. Or the KPfs?The story of this draft is the emergence of KPP Talent in the last 12 months, It started with Shanahan showing potential last year as a strong marking forward, then the Whitlock twins especially Jack showing match winning composure, Faull having a strong finish to the year for GWV and for VC in an u17s game, Mraz, O'Farrell and Trainor showing high end defensive ability and great height for KPD players, Gerryn has looked good as a ruck/kpf and my own personal favourite in Lockwood who could be a surprise AFL KPD, Adrian Cole could also get a chance through the NGA and is a good shut down KPD, with the emergence of good KPP this draft looks stronger than first thought.
Any medium forwards that are a very strong marking target that are taking your fancy for the Swans pick at around 23-25? Could also look at medium defenders as well as we are lighter in that area.
Walter, Curtin, Read, Caddy and O'Sullivan were all very strong talls, then you had Croft who was very athletic, then you had about 4 top rucks (Green, Goad, M.Edwards, Smith)and a few like McCabe, Dawson, A.Reid, Morris, Zakostelsky, Lloyd, Fawcett and Dear (X.Walsh - rookie)(19) which is nearly double the quality talls this year, a few i rate highly like Faull, Whitlock brothers, Trainor and O'Farrell with a few others i think are draft worthy like Shanahan, Mraz, Gerryn and Lockwood, Cole looks like he is likely to go to StK NGA and guys like Sims, Rohr and Nicholls could find spots on AFL lists?How do you rate this years talls vs last year? Eg O’Farrell, Mraz vs O’Sullivan, Croft, McCabe, Dawson etc. Or the KPfs?
what i have seen of them, i dont think they are at the level to be drafted imoHi Davo-027 have you seen much off
Ky Burgoyne and Ned Maginness.
VM kept up with a fast starting WA and overtook them in the end, WA have performed much better than i thought and they have found some new players like Vic Country to improve their team.Big game VM v WA.
Really looking forward to watching the following;
Luke Trainor - big fast ground should suit his game to a tee.
Charlie Richardson - wet weather made it really tough for the forwards last game. Peter ground for a high forward
Pat Retschko- again perfect ground for a running machine winger.
I’m not sure that’s the right phrase to be using. Where did they “find” these players?VM kept up with a fast starting WA and overtook them in the end, WA have performed much better than i thought and they have found some new players like Vic Country to improve their team.
Surely Crows are doing everything possible to get him. Would be stupid not too.Would be utterly shocked if Eagles dont grab Sid Draper. As set in stone as any pick this draft
(Ie Travaglia) you rated him before others did, so hes your boy
Crows will grab another Fischer Mccasey lolSurely Crows are doing everything possible to get him. Would be stupid not too.
I guess it’s the crows though.
Too soon…Crows will grab another Fischer Mccasey lol
I stopped growing when I was barely 15 too.Why?
You think Levi Ashcroft is going to grow that much?
I literally grew 1cm between the ages 12 to 16, and that was it. And I'm taller than Levi (just).
No current season stats available
Bo Allan looks good in the midfield, Luke Urquhart is a very direct long kicking mid who can burst away from congestion, Hamish Davis looks decent as wellHey Davo-27 watched the WA games like Bo Allen for us at second pick but 2 others I didn’t know stood out. Your thoughts on Luke urqhuart and Hamish Davis? The latter reminds me of a young Luke McPharlin.
For VM Sims looks a likely KP great hands.
Malakai Champion should fit the criteriaHi Davo-27 , I always like to see electric indigenous talent being drafted early. Kosi Pickett, Bobby Hill, Rankine etc.
Are there any fast small forward / mids with x factor at the pointy end who are indigenous?
He'll be long gone by then.Hey Davo-27 watched the WA games like Bo Allen for us at second pick
