Rumour Draft Rumours 2024 - No rumours allowed

[LB2Snake]

You would too if you had Pick 6

Nah it’s the same as 2 mate . TigerMAFS

 

[LB2Snake]

Your F1 should be able to get Armstrong the way Cal has him sliding.

Let me guess, with tigers pick 18?

 

[LB2Snake]

I get that there's this consensus of 6 amazing mids and nothing else which is why we should be upset, but Tauru looks like an absolute beast to me and Travaglia looks like a jet too. No issue if those are the players we end up with.

You’ll be wrapt with em both. Even one of them. Can play.

 

[blaisee]

With Tauru not likely getting inside the top 5 at the moment

North In: Pick 5, F1 (Tigers), F2 (Tigers)
North Out: Pick 2, F1, F3

Rich In: Pick 2, F1(North)
Rich Out: Pick 6, F1, F2

Dees In: Pick 6, F3(North)
Dees Out: Pick 5


1. Lalor - Richmond
2. FOS - Richmond
3. Jagga - Blues
4. Draper - Adelaide
5. North - Tauru
6. Dees - Langford




F3 North going out can be changed to F2 out, but feel this more fair

nah we are all good

 

[Makeshift Park]

Let me guess, with tigers pick 18?

If Armstrong was still on the table after the 17th pick, would you consider it?

 

[Keystone agony]

nah we are all good

Any concern about the Lalor, Smilie, Taranto, Hopper midfield mix for the next 5-6 years in such a fast paced/running game now?

 

[tigs2010]

Maybe in your dreams

This 6 amazing mids piece is a fallacy.

Two of the draft experts here said in reply to my question that Colby Mckercher would be a clear number 1 in this draft, and Dursma/Watson would contend for pick 1.

Now Colby is a talent but not in the league in his draft year of JHF/NDaicor/Sheezel/JUH/Darcy/Reid etc. If any of those were in this draft they would be a mile ahead at pick 1.

Reality is relative to previous drafts it’s a weak top end, which is unfortunate for the Tigers supporters and for our pick 2.

That's the ballgame, though. I understand from 10-20 is stronger than the previous, but not the top end.

 

[Pure_Ownage]

Bit of a whisper a while back that we want to pair up the Whitlocks.

If I was Richmond I'd go shanahan personally.

 

[blaisee]

nah

Lalor will play mid/fwd
Smillie mid/fwd/hb

Taranto mid/fwd
Hopper delisted

Your draft hand is the envy of most of the comp. Second best behind Richmond. I also think you'll trade 32 and 47 for 27.

 

[LB2Snake]

Maybe in your dreams

I think you might be disappointed mate. But let's see. Blair much smarter than that. Our F1 worth more than pick 18, to anyone. But maybe you’ll be right. Best thing is we find out.

 

[4tune8]

If I was Richmond I'd go shanahan personally.

Nah, he doesn't have that "white line fever" that you need from a KPF (from what I've been reliably informed) The same fella did say that Faull does have that competitive/combatative streak so he'd be my preference. Just going on the whispers shared on our board that the Whitlocks are targets

No one’s moving down out of the top 5 of a draft for a future 3rd…

Tigers also rorted, basically giving up a pick 1 to help North

 

[tigs2010]

I'm only messing. I'm sure you will start offering it very early until someone says yes or the guys you like are off the board.

 

[Baltastar]

I like Smilie but think he lacks a major thing you can’t teach. He has no mongrel. If you are going to be a big mid like. Crips, Bont or Green they all have mogrel. Maybe that’s why despite his size he doesn’t seem to be able to have a contested mark

How would you know he lacks mongrel ? Serious question?

 

[Ura]

I’m surprised there isn’t the same energy of Tigers reaching for Lalor as the rumours of when North would reach for Tauru. Nobody had Lalor as a top 5 pick 2 months ago. He has had a significant soft tissue injury and for my eye is a poor man’s Rayner (I do like Rayner). FOS had poor year but we can say that because his previous years were elite. Draper and Ashcroft had better years all round then both. Langford is to slow and Smillie has moved back in the draft for what I can only assume is poor Champs that hasn’t affect FOS or Lalor as much.

Reckon the Lalor/Smillie combo if it eventuates has a lot of uncertainty attached to it. Not the players I’d be taking.

 

[Pure_Ownage]

Maybe. Shanahan looked very good in the vfl to me though. If not I would go faull or gerryn who are really competitive. I think the whitlocks are a bit overrated personally.

I would be taking Smith at 1 every day of the week personally.

 

[year of the cat]

I would be taking Smith at 1 every day of the week personally.

FOS at 2.

 

[Ura]

I would be taking Smith at 1 every day of the week personally.

He had a stellar year. Proven at VFL level. His fault seems his size and short kick but I believe he could be elite with right team. Strangely I think would be great at Tigers Blues also a great match

 

[CaptainMurphy]

Tigs & Aints in talks re pick 8

Holy shit a rumour

I almost forgot where I was

 

[4tune8]

Yes, Shanahan did perform well in the VFL but it was against sub standard teams.

I agree that the Whitlocks are overrated and the goss could be off the mark (hoping that's the case)

Gerreyn has the weapons to tear the game apart and is my favorite amongst all of the KPP's. If he had have taken the championship games by the scruff of the neck then he'd be pushing for top 15 contention, trouble was he didn't
