Rumour Draft Rumours 2024 - No rumours allowed

[Danger in Texas]

No reason for the Crows to offer anything to move up.

As long as Tauru goes at 2, we'll get one of Jagga, Lalor or Draper.

Sounds like the club could have Jagga a tier above Draper

The tide is turning on the media, they're starting today to link us to FOS.

It's Jagga not just more of the same for Adelaide's midfield?

His athleticism and skill would be a point of difference. Rankine/Dawson/Smith/Soligo/Peatling as a midfield core seems pretty balanced

 

[danster168]

Dees are in a great spot. If Adel go up and take Jagga and north take Tauru then Dees will get Fos or Draper, assuming we don't go for something left field like Bo Allen

Or Langford, instead of FOS or Draper.

Will be dependent on which two of the above three are available once we know who Carlton pick.

Where?

 

[bulldogs201616]

Adelaide surely just settle for Draper. Home grown talent no flight risk.

 

[The Filth Wizard]

Where?

It was in that article on the Herald Sun about the Crows trying to get Jagga. Something about us now being linked to FOS over recent days if we hold 2 despite being linked to Tauru. It’s definitely more in line with what I’ve been hearing (although Draper more than FOS).

We didn’t settle for Ebert

Not saying Jagga is Dangerfield, but if we think he’s on another level to Draper, we’d be silly not to go that way (provided the cost of moving up isn’t that great)

 

[GWS Goose]

Pendlebury was a dud until I yelled some advice from the stands.

Was it you that reminded him he played basketball which apparently gives him mystical powers that haven't transferred to other basketball era.

Not sure you settle for anyone. Just take who you feel is the best prospect, same state or not.

 

[Mich0]

Would love to snare Tauru at 5 if he snuck through. Best tall in a super draft. Leaves us with pick 9 to grab a mid like Allan or Reid.

I personally think there neck and neck but so wouldn't you go the home grown talent.

Yeah but it's not like Draper is bad. Him and Jagga are neck and neck in my opinion.

Only thing that matters is what the club thinks, in the end

I’m willing to trust our judgement on trading up, if the price isn’t too much (which it doesn’t sound like it would be)

 

[Jen2310]

No, definitely not. Draper is one of my favs. I know him a little bit. But for whatever reason, Crows may decide they like Jagga a little bit for different reasons.

Suprised they want a little bloke like Jagga. They need big bodies like Lalor or Langford.

Well Lalor will be gone by their pick, and I guess the issue with Langford is he might not be quick enough for the crows’ midfield atm - they’re already sacrificing some foot speed with Dawson and Croucu

 

[A Bit Dusty]

Langford is the one. He will be a gun and a booming left foot

 

[Johnny Bananas]

The Crows want Jagga.

It is understood that Adelaide recently offered North Melbourne pick 4 and two future third-round selections in exchange for pick 2, but the offer was knocked back.

The Kangaroos are believed to be eyeing pick 4 and a future second-round selection to get the deal done.

North should just take that offer. Why look a gift horse in the mouth? They'll stay ahead of Melbourne and still be able to get Tauru.

We used both our first rounders last year on Curtin (197cm) and Edwards (191cm), Dawson is 190cm too

It says we’re eyeing the future second so I guess if Adelaide can turn those F3’s into a mid F2 we’ll snap it up and then work on packaging our F2’s into this draft. 4 will probably still get FOS or Draper. Or Tauru if we’ve fallen that way. Get some mid to later talls in.

As a Saints supporter…

North or Melbourne. Can one of you please get Tauru off the board before pick 7.

Pick 8 - Alix Tauru sounds alright doesn’t it?
