Unofficial Preview Mid Season Draft 2024

[caseman2]

Apologies if there is already a thread on this but I do have a question re the mid-season draft.

I keep reading that we only have one selection. I was under the impression we would have 2 with both Blanck and Butler both out for the year. Has only one of them been placed on the Long Term Injury list?

Ethan Phillips for Blanck.

MSD pick for Butler.

Ethan Phillips for Blanck.

MSD pick for Butler.

Thank you - that makes sense!

 

[suburb whispers]

So any intel on who we like? A bit of noise about Luke Beecken from SA, but not much else.

 

[TylerDurden]

We were keen on the Tassie kid. But again. North.

 

[lethalselbow]

If the talent pool was larger a second pick would be good. Sounds like slim pickings

 

[Wingnut19]

article today suggest we have interest in Will Mclachlan from Geelong Falcons. Sounds like a similar player to Butler

 

[MrBeefSeven]

MAX HALL

I really hope we are looking at McLachlan or Murray from Geelong VFL.

 

[TylerDurden]

I keep hearing Beeckan. But that could be a smokescreen for allowing Hall to slip through.

How has Philactides fared for Box Hill this year? Was high on a few draft predictions at times last year

 

[Blackhawk42]

Been hearing Max Hall's name for 18 months now. He's improved out of sight in the VFL during that time period. Wouldn't surprise me at all if we called his name out.

Absolutely no intel though.

Hopefully we do he seems to be ready to play AFL.

 

[libbylou]

Is Max Hall the type of player we need?

Is Max Hall the type of player we need?

Hopefully he is if selected and not just because his from Box Hill.

 

[Tall Tales and True]

He's seriously hard-at-it ... that's a good start!

I don't think he's playing today, wonder if Hawks are keeping him out of the eyes of oppo recruiters hoping for one last look??

I reckon it's more likely he'd pull himself out if a club has said they'll select him. Crazy to risk an AFL list spot for a random VFL game.

Great for him if so

I think he's been good but a real gutless chase late in the quarter against Footscray was burned in my mind forever.

I'm being irrational but that was just unacceptable.

 

[TylerDurden]

Were we hiding Hall today?

 

[TylerDurden]

Get him.

 

[mustang]

Get him.

Agree this is who we should be getting and not Hall.

 

[Judd2Sewell]

How come he wasn't drafted last year? What were the question marks on his game?

 

[Brant]

Get him.

What chance he's still available at our pick though?

Surely the 9'ers or one of Eagles/Saints take him?
