Draft Expert Davo-27's 2024 Draft Thread

Dees need a fwd!!

Agreed. Armstrong is right there in their face. Not a stretch at pick 5 either

No, we don't need another young KPF. JVR, Jefferson, Turner and the incoming Derksen (plus Fullarton and Kentfield) are plenty. A midfielder with pace and/or good kicking skills is a far greater priority.

Really hope Luke Trainor's head injuries don't cut his career short, I guess the concern has him dropping in all rankings

It shouldn’t, concussion concerns shouldn’t mean that you now think he is not one of the best in the draft, but it may affect the mock drafts.

If Malakai goes at 27 hope WCE don't match.
I have worries he will have a long career
Unfortunately he is one concussion from his career being over

This is the first I’ve heard of concussion issues with Champion. Has he already a number of concussions?

In my opinion this is the perfect opportunity for dees to pick up a young gun mid they can add to a future midfield make up - Windsor, Rivers, maybe McVee, Sparrow, bit of Koltyn??? They need to think about life after Viney (30) Clarry (only 27, hopefully 5 years but ??), Trac (28 but is he gone in 12 months?)

They have young ish fwds in JVR, Disco, Jefferson, Petty - hopefully a couple of these blokes pop soon.

I'd go a mid in this draft.

No he hasn't but what I think ROYAL EAGLE meant was that Malakai puts himself about. Not a big fella, so goes low and get's whacked a bit. Sometimes one fears for him in contests.
