A 23/24 year old that early?Latest ESPN phantom three round Draft has us taking Ethan Phillips - Port Melbourne (VIC)

Tom Stewart says hi.A 23/24 year old that early?
No thanks.
**** yeah! The one exception in the history of the game that worked opposed to the thousands that didn't.Tom Stewart says hi.
Was one of the more dominant years from a KPD in VFL history. Given we were going to use 33 on a guy who's played 6 games as a KPD. We could do a lot worse than Ethan Phillips. He's got the size, speed and marking abilities to step straight into pretty much every teams starting side* yeah!

What I would do for a player that just renders our 30+ blokes surplus to needs.The last bit is the allure isn't it. Straight into the side. I think that's important
I'm more than happy to use that pick on the best ready to go KPD.A 23/24 year old that early?
No thanks.
Would rather plan to be cherry ripe for 2024.I'm more than happy to use that pick on the best ready to go KPD.
If everything else clicks we could be right up there and I don't want to miss an opportunity to genuinely contend for the sake of a pick 33.
It may not come off but it's worth the risk.

So he's the literal inverse of Lord in defence.ESPN Phantom Draft: 36. Port Adelaide - Ethan Phillips - Port Melbourne (VIC)
Winning the Fothergill-Round-Mitchell Medal for the VFL's most promising young talent, Phillips has developed into the premier key defender outside the AFL. An elite reader of the ball and intercept mark, Phillips is also a strong one-on-one defender and rarely loses a contest.
I think you’re thinking of McKenzie in the Qualifying Final in 2020 where Hawkins kicked something like 0.5.Re the Clurey v McKenzie debate, I'm not 100% certain of who it was (I think it may have been Clurey), but I have recollections of a game against geebung few years back which Port won by a few goals, and where Hawkins scored something like 1goal 4 behinds, plus a couple of shots that missed everything, and just about all of them were from marks and set shots.
On another day he would have probably scored 3 or 4 goals, which may have changed the result of that game.
It's a no brainer they are both undersized as key defenders but in my opinion McKenzie is the more reliable of the two.

That would be the aim if we draft him.The last bit is the allure isn't it. Straight into the side. I think that's important
Skinner had 3 knee recos.Remember - Skinner was outstanding at Sanfl level prior to being picked up by us. Another 24 yr old with good VFL form , just wonder why he hasn't been picked up before in prior drafts or mid year drafts.
Yes but his sanfl form prior to drafting was outstanding and it didnt transfer to the higher level for whatever reason. Just a cautionary note , also why hasnt this guy been drafted before. Not against picking him as I know little about him , but there are red flags as to using 33 on a 24yr old vfl player.Skinner had 3 knee recos.
Agreed, Skinner had a very good season at south in 2021, but as soon as he was exposed to AFL pressure his lack of agility was exposed very quickly.Skinner had 3 knee recos.
