Prototypical small forward for hok ball. High impact and high intensity work ethic. Bombers will need to pay up.Fair, deserves it
Brisbane is getting an absolute bargain with Levi at 6 easily best player in the draftHello all it’s been a minute, inspired by the comeback of PMBangers I’ve decided to return with a thread once again.
Now I can’t say I’ll have as much informed opinion as previous years with other commitments preventing me going to as many live games but i still try to find time to watch footage to keep informed.
Don’t expect any fancy pants rankings visuals this time around also with the nature of my current role sorry if i can only give vague replies from time to time.

He isn’t at 6 anymore but I wouldn’t say he is easily the bestBrisbane is getting an absolute bargain with Levi at 6 easily best player in the draft
Would you still take Jagga at 1? I get the stuff to like about him - no denying he’s a ball magnet - but his hurt factor? He feels more like a Matt Crouch type career. Lots of touches - questionable long term impact. I just feel like he may get found out and has less tricks available if/when he does?He isn’t at 6 anymore but I wouldn’t say he is easily the best
He can hurt you for sure, he is very clean by hand and has great stoppage craft. His impact is winning the ball at the source and distributing cleanly and with composure which often buys time for the teammate he releases.Would you still take Jagga at 1?

Spot on, I think Jagga’s value in the medium term really depends on the team. A team like West Coast with a poor ruckman and midfield would benefit enormously once Jagga is fit and strong enough to play in there. I’d love him at 3 if available.He can hurt you for sure, he is very clean by hand and has great stoppage craft.

Ones somewhat around our picks is possible

Feels like there are about 20 players who are “likely top 10” picksMissed large chunk of second half of season, didn’t play finals and didn’t test at combine
He has mysteriously risen in value despite not playing

I’ll do 5 players I consider from 10 onwardsBest ball users and best runners/speed?

bloke who was already in the 15 - 20 region that has somehow got better despite not playingFeels like there are about 20 players who are “likely top 10” picks
Just depends who you ask and on what day.
Risen because clubs see the opportunity to get Essendons pick 9 would be my guess.Feels like there are about 20 players who are “likely top 10” picks

there's always a player who risers in the top 10 come that's not often rated come draft timeRisen because clubs see the opportunity to get Essendons pick 9 would be my guess.

Someone just a bit later than them who is in both categories is Will Hayes from Claremont, very outside but quick and skillful
I’m not sure of his agility time but sometimes a higher agility time can represent speed on the field a bit better. He doesn’t look slow on the field so I don’t think clubs would be too worried.What do you make of Travaglia's 20m sprint time at the combine? I agree, I think he looks like he carries speed around the ground well, but 3.186 is pretty terrible. An off day? or is he someone who consistently takes a while to hit top speed, but is hard to catch once he does?
Like a tallHey Ed, working through who I can see us taking at 14, does Shanahan pressure like a medium or like a tall?

DraperWhat are the chances that Finn O'Sullivan is available to Carlton at pick 3 ?
Who would you take if you're needing a point of difference midfielder player with explosive pace away for the stoppages/packs IF FOS was already gone by Carlton's by no. 3 ?
If I was North and Tigers I would take Jagga and Finn which would leave the likes of Draper available and I think he would be the best fit there.What are the chances that Finn O'Sullivan is available to Carlton at pick 3 ?

Angus Clarke is right up there with the best ball users in this draft IMO Ed.I’ll do 5 players I consider from 10 onwards
