List Mgmt. National & Rookie Draft 2021

[Lore]

Hey guys, thought you might like to have this resource on your board (scuse the intrusion!) – mods might like to sticky it so it's visible at the top of the thread

 

[gringo2011]

Well that’s my point is that here the club is looking at a guy with a bit of something different. You say well why don’t we stick with someone like Hobbes. Also I’d argue we have recruited players with flair but it’s coached out of them or not developed well.

I'm not sure there is much flair at the Saints. Maybe Parker but he was first out.

 

[Mowman]

Would happily hand over a future 2nd and 3rd for one of Sonsie, Goater or Butler

Not sure there'd be any takers though

Bird Man

 

[Rors]

The fact Johnson is still on the board

Maybe recruiters are good at their job & he’s not 1st round quality…

 

[Sun Ra]

Get NWM in the number 7.

Agree 100 %. Not putting any pressure on the kid or anything....living up to Dunstan and all.

 

[prophetic1]

Doesn't matter

I really wanted Hobbs so a bit flat but if he can hit his promise he's got something we lack. Please don't let Sinn or Hobbs be a star though. That's all I ask.

It doesn't matter if they're huge stars so long as our STAR is like the Christmas Star and takes us to the Promised Land baby!!!

 

[stfan]

Given the talent still available, Owens not likely get his name called for a little while yet.


Hawks and Cats with 2 picks each in the next 6 are both set up to get some great value picks.

 

[Yabadoo22]

If butler/sonsie are still there around pick 25 I’d love to trade a futitre second and maybe a swap of future firsts with a team like Geelong.

 

[gringo2011]

Our pick of NWM makes a lot more sense when combined with Owens and Windhager
NWM - immediate class and skill
Owen - size marking and courage
Windhager - Power and athleticism

I think NWM is meant to be a long term project according to who ever was on SEN today. Said you'd need patience but has something special.

Tell me you never saw Dunstan at U18 level without telling me you never saw Dunstan at U18 level….

I watched him at saints for 8 years that was enough.
I’ve also watched a lot of Hobbs, they’re nothing alike except both being good contested players and that’s it.

 

[Sarcoidevo]

I hope so . His dad couldn’t actually put any weight on by memory.

From an article re: Gavin Wanganeen helping Terry Milera (before being drafted to the Saints)


When he began working with Wanganeen last summer, Milera was skinny, unfocused and had a questionable workrate. So the duo hit the gym.

"The first few months we were just in the gym doing squats because Gavin said the thing that made him such a successful player was the power in his legs," Milera said. Milera's squat - a full body exercise that trains the muscles of the thighs, hips and buttocks - soon had improved from 70kg to 110kg and his weight beefed up from 68kg to 78kg.

Once the football season started, the pair moved to the city's north parklands for sprint training and the benefits began to show on the field.

"I noticed I had more power in my legs to get to more contests and once I got the ball I could run with it more," Milera said.

Wanganeen had never worked one-on-one with a young footballer before, but he knew what had made him successful as a player.

"There's certain areas they need to be really good, whether it be physically and also skill-wise," Wanganeen said.

"If Terry wanted to play AFL, he needed to get a bit stronger in his legs and hips and get a bit more powerful in that area and start doing well in the SANFL so he could start getting the attention of the AFL scouts."

[St Kilda Death]

Hobbs, Wanganeen-Milera.

 

[jwikked]

How is NWM related to Gavin Wanganeen?

 

[botts]

For a bit of interesting fact this is the first time in VFL afl history a club has taken two players in consecutive first rounds with hyphenated last names and had an x captain win master chef. Just saying

It seems important to mention at this stage that Terry is Nasiah's STEP dad so any shared physical traits would just be coincidence.

[BrutThough]

NWM = Tarryn Thomas

Pretty sure Thomas had played inside during his junior days so they aren't really a comparison.

I think the entire country is on BigFooty tonight, slow as hell.

Excellent he and Allision at Sandy for the next 3 to 4 years

 

[Sun Ra]

Cloning.

 

[Savage Kent]

Looks like there were enough melts to shutdown bigfooty.

 

[_Maximus_12]

I want Sam Butler

Multiple players found. Use birthday to differentiate. eg [PLAYERCARD="23/11/1962"]Joe Smith[/PLAYERCARD]

. Give me Zac Butters 2.0. Trade back in please Saints

 

[Mighty_sainter]

yeah

The fact Johnson is still on the board

yeah you are right, because no player ever taken after our pick has been any good. and no player in the 20s has ever been elite?
