I was hoping to see you take a Gaff and Kelly insurance policy playerNorth's draft haul:
19. North Melbourne (matched bid) - Tarryn Thomas (North Launceston/North NGA, midfielder, 189cm, 73kg)
47. North Melbourne - Boyd Woodcock (North Adelaide, forward/mid, 180cm, 71kg)
49. North Melbourne - Darcy Fort (Central District, ruckman, 205cm, 99kg)
52. North Melbourne (matched bid) - Bailey Scott (Suns academy/North father-son, midfielder, 186cm, 74kg)
56. North Melbourne - Harry Reynolds (Sandringham Dragons, utility, 190cm, 75kg)
71. North Melbourne - Kyron Hayden (North Melbourne, redrafted)
Very happy with that. In reality I think the bids on Thomas and Scott will come much earlier which will push some of those other picks back.
I didn't really identify a need for North's list other than some ready-to-play backup for Goldstein, which I got with Darcy Fort who I think is probably the best ruckman outside the AFL system at the moment other than maybe Zac Clarke, who's a few years older plus possibly getting to Essendon through the back door anyway.
The Woodcock pick was just best available (plus funniest name available), a small forward who can hopefully press up into the midfield as his career progresses, who has shown himself capable of competing against men with his great game in the SNAFFLE grand final.
Reynolds is a real smokey, a player who was playing school footy for most of the year. I think he can offer something off half-back and with their overall draft haul North can afford to take a risk at that pick.
With the Hayden pick I considered taking a mature player who could help with their depth, after they cut fairly deep with their delistings. In particular I considered Honeychurch and Neade from the DFAs as well as Jye Bolton, but there wasn't anyone I liked more than Hayden and I was pretty concerned some campaigner would steal him (because if I was picking for another club I would), so back in he comes.
If he was born a couple of years ago he would be still running around Royal Naru with Abu Abid on top of him competing in the Razorwire Stakes.Yes I had to check but foaled in NZ and then became a Aussie citizen at the age of 2 after applying and being granted Australian citizenship ..
