ODN first I think

Yep but leave it up. ODN just got his ruck.

 

[The Old Dark Navy's]

Taking this opportunity to pick up a token ruck - Sam Draper from the Stain Otherwise Known as *.

Oi, back in line.

It's okay. You can have him.

I've scoured the list several times because I have 3 players at the top of my list and can't believe they are still there.

Correct me if I've missed him, but I'll take:

Tom Papley

No worries - typing it again is my penance

Could be Brad Scott and think Draper as a forward is a good idea

I had him on my list so definitely not taken.

CCurnow3votes first

OK - Sam Draper per moi!

 

[The Old Dark Navy's]

CCurnow3votes first

He had gone off early

 

[The Old Dark Navy's]

He's a lay down misere

 

[Jacks Seething Rage]

? Taylor ?
Clark Ridley ?
? Dawson ?

? King ?

O'Brien, Butters, Newcombe

Forward line needs some love.

 

[The Old Dark Navy's]

My tactic has turned out to be leaving flankers and mids for last because there are heaps of them. However, for some reason my first pick was a half back flanker who is starting to move into the midfield. I don't think I had a strategy then.

I’d consider Young full time mid these days, bloody ripper in there.

Sunday evening, family time, lots going back to work tomorrow…..forget all that we have a draft to complete

I haven't watched a lot of Freo games. I assume he is playing first receiver with Serong and Brayshaw in there.

He kind of does it all. I've seen him be the first receiver type and then deliver the ball inside 50 but then other times I see him as the ball hunter in the middle. One of the few that can do both at a high level in the competition whilst also being very good defensively. I've also noticed Freo have rested him at times in the F50 - has decent size to take a mark and kick a goal

Agree with all this. Plus his TOG is very low compared to most other mids! But then again, he plays an explosive/taxing game

Yep TOG since moving into the midfield has been quite low which I thought was a stamina issue but like you say he does play a very taxing game style. If they keep developing his forward half game and get him to rest there can easily get his minutes up. Regardless, his impact per disposal is as good as any in the comp atm.

I sort of got him for his distribution at half back, but I don't have a tall extractor with Treloar my only other midfielder so far. If Young can be a ruck rover or centre, that solves a lot of problems.

Yep he definitely can - it's why I was so upset he went in the first round
