Unofficial Preview Mid Season Draft 2024

[Judd2Sewell]

Anyone watched him play? What are his strengths?

I'd be interested to know why he was overlooked in his draft year?

Davo-27

From Scaife’s highlights I’m getting a bit of Callow vibes …… not much is happening below the knees when the ball hits the deck but I will be the first to admit I’ve got no idea

Wishing you the best Jasper never in doubt

i think we have selected well with Scaife, looks promising and with a solid build. We are going to have alot of choices with talls down back and up front and strong competition for spots. List is building nicely!

 

[Bremner20]

Just hope it’s not another Callow Mk11. That was a wasted pick but he was dominating the minors too so I can see why we took a punt .

 

[matey]

So he’s listed 197cm and 85kg …….. reckon it’s a typo and he’s 95kg!

Very interesting. I wonder if Lewis has anything to do with this.

I floated this idea a couple of months ago and have since been locked out of the Mitchell Lewis thread.
Lewis is a risk given his injury history, which is what also makes him a trade opportunity.
Probably also means Ramsden isn't close to the required level, yet.

Scaife looks solid.
Good athleticism and skills without doing anything to an elite standard.
If he brings a strong work ethic and competitiveness, he could well become a player.

 

[Dewnior]

He looks soild

Won't have to worry now that he gets to wear brown shorts.

 

[Mojo]

Selections have started.

Payne gone first and they had a reaction cam with his family and he looked like he hated being picked by North

I'm imagining a court of law. The judge is summarising the charges against the defendant. The plaintiff appears resolute, albeit calm. The trials' testifiers and spectators await collectively for the imminent decision from the jury.

A tall, frail man stands up and reads, 'we, the Jury, find the defendant, guilty'.

A chorus of 'oooooo's' rings around the the modern hall, as the defendant is sentenced by the judge to serve 8-10 years at North Melbourne In-correctional Facilty.

'Tough call', utters the judge.

When I watch this guy's highlights (from ONE game), and compare to Jed Walter's highlights across his underage season, I find it difficult to discern why one is a top 3 pick, and the other fell to the MSD.

Scaife's athelticism is on par, if not better than Walter's.
There's no noticeable gap in skills, marking, ball handling etc

Could someone who has watched more of Scaife give us a rundown of why he fell to the MSD, and what has been the difference for him this season. I understand he has been a prolific goal kicker thus far?

 

[Bardo State]

Ned Long gets another chance from the Pies. Good on him.

 

[kirbatron]

Scaife to CHB!

 

[Judd2Sewell]

Looks like Brisbane did well based on all of the pre-draft talk, with McLachlan and Beecken both being tipped to go in the first 5 picks.

Also, congratulations to Ned Long for getting another chance.

 

[Tugofawar]

Aweful pick

 

[Tomohawks]

He has a lot of mobility for a guy of his size it appears by that footage. Seems to have clean hands, moves well and can use his opposite foot. I like this pick a lot as he didn't seem lost working further up the ground as well. I wanted the Geelong forward but if he is rated below this bloke then we might just be onto a player here.

The club published highlights watch those he’s pretty mobile and kicks well on both sides. Happy with the selection even if he wasn’t my first choice he looks worth the punt. His disposal is excellent let him develop with Ramsden and Dear and let’s see where he can get to.

 

[VandoHawk]

We needed key position depth and Scaife has had some very good games as a 19-year-old in the WAFL. On reflection, I'm happy we took the punt even though I have other favourites.

Hes a year older for one

huge insight.
Thanks.

Aweful pick

.. as in full of awe?
.. as in more awe than just ‘some’?
.. as in better than ‘awesome’?

I like your thinking!

I'm no expert on him, I remember the knock on him was 'has quiet games'. That could mean a lot of different things. He looks fit, looks like he's ready to have a crack.

 

[tl92]

huge insight.
Thanks.

Haha you’re watching a highlights package of guy that turns 20 years old in October and comparing him to Jed Walters underage season, where he’s presumably 16-17?

Awe-full. As in; full of awe.

Edit: looks like I was well beaten to the gag

sorry for the grammar. Not trolling, I just don’t post much but this is a crap pick.
