Not sure?

Trading opens at 4pm tomorrow.

But kept private.

 

[HurleyHepsHird]

Arguably better according to who?

I think from the outside, Robertson has definitely been rated by many commentators as a top 15 pick.

 

[Pee Tear Griffin]

Freo will be absolutely stoked with their haul. Reckon Melb have ****ed it tbh. Wanted us to bid on Green at #3 and then take Hayden Young once the Giants matched. He looks like absolute class and a blue-chip player, which we desperately need more of. Hope the lads drafted prove me wrong but Jackson at 3 is such a boom/bust pick and fills no obvious need. We're gonna have to hope like hell that he can develop some forward craft. Pickett at 10 also seems like a stretch, probably could have split that pick into 2 late first round picks and still have gotten him. Fuarkkk.

 

[HurleyHepsHird]

BS mate. Pretty sure recruiters know more than the average joe

And yet Silvagni is a list manager.

True at face value. But the mitigating "x" factor is confidently predicting a talent in a lesser comp to transitioning to the highest level.

 

[Procrastinator35]

Classic Richmond taking the random

Highly skilled with pace....There's nothing random about Dow.

 

[Johnny Bananas]

Saints have been marvellous since 1966

Good to know you can't actually argue his point so you resort to playing the history card.

 

[Jimbojay]

Really looking forward to next year when a team spends 40 minutes on the clock bidding on 12 academy players

 

[Tig017]

Honestly, the clubs with multiple picks in the next 15 are about to clean up...

Robertson, Worrell, Gould, Bianco, Rivers, Sharp, Rantall, Taylor etc.

All arguably better than most already taken.

Yep, because you know better than the paid professionals who watch the juniors all year. It's only natural, after all, you must have read Knightmare's phantom form guide, and all the other Bigfooty draft experts analysis.

 

[Baird]

Like Brodie Grundy

And James Worpel

Academy bidding will have all the shuffling of a craps table.

High drama on the high seas.

 

[Furn2]

Cool, See you in 5 years to see how it all worked out.

At least half the kids taken tonight wont make it. The question is which half.

 

[peternorth]

For those for which the AFL draft is their christmas and birthday rolled into one...... it's on again on Foxfooty

I dont read KM’s garbage.

Pure data says that these picks are just as likely to get an AA and a 200 gamer as the previous 10.

It’s just a historical fact, so stop letting your bias get in the way.

Half a bag of gorringes.

Personally i think Jackson will work out well for the Dees. A few months ago when he was tipped to go around 10-15 i always thought he would turn into a draft bolter that goes top 5. Very talented kid and his work around the ball will help prevent him being a bust imo. He's not just some tall lanky bloke getting hit outs. In a good situation too where not much will be expected/needed with Gawn on the list. Can learn from him, spend time up forward and take his time to develop.

Why do people post this b.s.. there are 3 full time recruiters at clubs with a stack of part timers. explain to me how they watch 74 under 18 games Australia wide?

They don't! like the average Joe they watch videos which any one can do.

Absolutely butchers it

It’s also fairly ironic.

The paid professionals at North and Adelaide traded their earlier picks for multiple picks in this zone for this reason.

I could mount the exact same argument to counter his view.

 

[Weiterbot23]

-AA captain still on the board
-pissed we missed Serong
-Melbourne worst on
-Green to be the best player of the draft

 

[Crusty Demon]

Carlton and tigers picks eewww. Freo nailed the draft perfectly

Agreed. Freo and GC clean up. GWS picks up another couple of guns too. Dees ballsed up yet another draft. Jackson a reach at 3 and serves no need for us while i love the look of Pickett, but a huge reach at 12. We basically gifted Freo Serong and GWS Ash. Well done Dees...

 

[Elmer_Hauser]

Beats me why Freo fans are filthy with us (Carlton)

No such thing as a free lunch in this game, at least you have academy talent to pick up, we have had Sweet Fanny Adams luck in our zone.

 

[Procrastinator35]

What time does tomorrows' melodrama kick-off #Taylor?.....Same time round again?

 

[TryAnHit]

What times does it start tomorrow
