Prediction National Draft 2024

[Tundrawolf]

I was gonna say most of the boys wouldn't even know of him, then remembered they're currently naming him after a cricketer with a brief career in the early 90s

It was the mid 80's and 80 odd international matches isn't exactly brief.

 

[Joao]

85-92, you're both right.

 

[Piggy Smalls]

I was referring to his Test career. 27 Tests isn't a lot, although I didn't realise it was across a span of 8 years until I just looked it up.

Thank god for sticky tape or he wouldn't have made it through 1

Bruce Reid was the club doctor at Essendon during the supplements scandal. I should add the charges against him were dropped by the AFL and also that he died in 2020.

 

[Hazelsnuts]

Similar to when we took Jack Hannath ?
What goes around comes around.

Wherever Jack Hannath is, is still going around - fella had the turning circle of the Queen Mary….so fken slooooowwww.

Pretty sure they call Liam “Choppa” already

Heard he’s racing B-doubles in turn circles on the freeway

Twomey on Gettable saying we tried to get up the board to ensure we got Murphy Reid, not Berry.

Glad we didnt then

 

[DragoDelph]

Also were very keen on Dolan, who went to the dogs. Probably why we ended up going a bit early on Nicholls.

 

[Piggy Smalls]

Been watching Reid's draft highlights and doing a bit of research on him. His old coach reckons he's got eyes in the back of his head and could easily have gone top 5 in most drafts.
I can't see this kid playing much footy for Peel.

Smart players like that, tend to come in and play pretty quick as their quick thinking IQ, masks their lack of physicality

Twomey was also asked who he thought the steal of the draft was and he said Murphy Reid to Freo

Twomey on Gettable saying we tried to get up the board to ensure we got Murphy Reid, not Berry.

Yep heard that on gettable this morning.

WC: rated Berry behind Allan
Port: rated Murphy behind Berry but ahead of Allan
Freo: rated Murphy ahead of Allan

Also said that some clubs ahead of WC and Port were interested in Berry.

Twomey rated Murphy the steal of the first round. He ranked him 6th.

As mentioned we were also keen on Dolan. I wouldn’t call Nicholls a reach. Twomey ranked him in the 31-40 range. Twomey ran a next best 31-40 range around Aug and Nicholls along with most of the other names selected in that 31-40 range also listed.

Seems the general feel on this board from many that they weren’t happy with our draft haul. The two players we got were ranked highest at selections.

Many other clubs (Port included) used their picks in the top 40 and then essentially tapped out aside from a late F/S academy pick (Adelaide, Freo, GC, Hawks and Melbourne all come to mind).

Jaren Carr is the unknown but seems we have had him on our radar for some time. Very likely it was us that told Jaren not to nominate for MSD. Directly after the WAFL season Peter connected him with NOD for specialised running program. He has been doing some work on his speed and jump since end of WAFL season. His next area to work on is putting on some muscle bulk.

He also said Kozzie Pickett was still exploring a move to Freo in the last 24 hours of trade period once Shai Bolton was traded

Comment from Twomey is on Gettable, somewhere around 17:15 in.

Personally I’d take Kozzie over Warner.

Red, red hot chance, especially if the Dees follow the disgruntled and underwhelming theme of the last two years and Freo on the up.

If we added Kozzie, do we have the best forward line in the league?

 

[Arcassius]

If we land Picket next season ..... that's a stacked forward line

We were short some indigenous players this year.
Now we are stockpiling them.
Hopefully Melbourne turn to shite & we get coz for cheap.
Melbourne have gleaned us twice recently.
