Draft Watcher eDPS Draft Watch 2020

I was just looking at Tom Powell's testing results, he stacks up pretty well athletically with endurance maybe needing some work.
Given testing was early in the year and with his run of injuries over the last couple of years maybe he was a bit underdone re his endurance as he doesn't seem to have a problem getting from contest to contest match day. I think he compares vmost favourably with Harry Schoenberg's season in the lead up to the Nationals?

I think he is better than Schoenberg, has a few more tools at his disposal. Schoenberg is a little taller and stronger with a better contested game at this stage but everything else Powell has him covered

I’ve been a big fan and loved Perth giving him some midfield time aswell, his workrate his outstanding and won’t play another 18s game for Perth I suspect.

O’Driscoll is going to be a beast when he fills out. Definitely a lot taller than 187cm.

Should be first or second mid drafted?

Depends what you classify Hollands as, at this stage I'd be taking O'Driscoll over Phillips though

His kicking is an issue and that can sometimes worry clubs. I still have him behind Hollands, Campbell and Phillips, but could see him going anywhere between 4-15.

McDonald today not screaming pick 1 IMO, crumbing goals are good but is he a KPF at AFL level?

Still leading the WAFL seniors goal kicking race for the Bernie Naylor medal, and coming 12th in terms of marks for the competition.

The footy gods have graced us with McDonald vs Grainger-Barras as the channel 7 game next week. Might be a chance Trew makes his senior debut aswell.

Also West Perth vs Claremont will be the 18s stream, wouldn’t surprise me if Chapman plays reserves though.

Phillips sliding down a bit. Looking at his highlights reel his kicking disposal is far from elite and he looks for handballs the majority. Has been a standout since he was 15 as a hard at it insider. Perhaps the pack have caught up and some have over taken. I wouldn't have him in the elite category

He is about the same spot I had him last month, no games to go off makes it hard to gauge him against someone like Powell who is a similar type.

Phillips could end up at the Gold coast.

 

[PMBangers]

Phillips could end up at the Gold coast.

For once, I don't think he'd fit Gold Coasts needs, especially with the type of players that are similar quality

Archie sneaking up.

Archie sneaking up.

Only because a player went down

He's getting closer to the top 10 so Crows supporters won't be too disappointed when we take him instead of a SA lad..

I can hear them now..."Archie who" ?

Agree

rowell Anderson Flanders as recent additions and with Davies coming in...It would be a waste to add more centre mids when there’s other needs.

Think Thilthorpe, DGB or Cox will be their go to, Thilthorpe being the dream to give some more Ruck Depth going forward

they may get their wish. I think we will take McDonald and Holland’s then hope for brun

 

[Wild Bill]

Well that should lock 2 in. Big drop in % will see us finished 17th even is we scrape another win. I’m hoping for Logan at 2 and best available mid with the Dees pick.

If Crows go Logan then Holland’s to us and we take the best KPP with the Dees pick.

I believe they need a tall defender capable taking the oppositions number one tall forward.

Collins is good, and excels at taking intercept marks, but is a bit on the short side.

Does it matter if he’s a KPD or KPF?

no we taking McDonald AND Holland pick 1 and 2 compo. You may get Phillips, unless we also ask for priority pick as well
