Prediction National Draft 2024

Given our shortage of small forwards I would have been happier with Hannaford.

Murphy looks fine based on highlights but doesn’t fill a need.

If we hadn’t have caved to Richmond we could have had Berry.

If Murphy becomes a champ all will be forgiven!
looks like wingman to me or a goal kicking small forward, see his stats (need our development coaches to get to work)

Bro is a short, slow inside mid with above average, not elite skills. There's two outcomes from here in my view, he stays and we have a marginal upgrade on Johnson or Erasmus and an incredibly one dimensional midfield in terms of size, speed and skill. Or he leaves for opportunity cos he can't get past Johnson or Erasmus. That's why I am melting a bit.

Having said that, good luck to him and I wish him a long and successful career.
Highlights look like the 29 year old version of Jaeger O’Meara

Live Neale Erasmus reaction when the Reid news dropped:

What the **** are the giants doing? Midfielders draft and they take two small forwards when they already have too many small fowards.
Bring Darcy Jones home to save him from this rabble
I agree it’s beyond stupid now , they ll simple end up having to trade some out if they turn out any good
Crazy list strategy
 
His reviews reid pretty good and he’s got that deft Sam Mitchell type of kick that can pick apart defences by the looks.
His highlights are better than Johnson’s and Ras”s draft imo so let’s turn that frown upside down and trust the selection.
I think Ras's highlights were mostly him playing at a high school level comp...? This is at least a couple of grades below the quality afield at the National U18s. Reid is doing some very smart and slick stuff.
 
Draft was certainly more interesting once Twomey's late mail went to shit with the Faull pick.

Reid is an "in Walls we trust" type of pick for me. I was wanting to take Hannaford or Oliver once we were on the clock, and lo and behold they went the next two picks. But all guesswork at this stage.
