Draft Expert PMBangers 2024 Draft Thread and psuedo general draft discussion apparently

I'm a sucker for athleticism

Fair enough. I see him primarily as a ruck that can push forward. Is that wrong? I reckon whilst needing a mature ruck to support DeKoning and Conway (Stanley is just about done), I’m not sure we really need another young ruck.

Needs wise, I think a key forward who can pinch hit in the ruck would be what we are after. Hence Gerreyn or West might be looked at to my mind.

6th nationally in agility, 3.156 in the 20m, those numbers for a 200cm, 100kg kid who's dual sided and can roost a goal from 60m sort of stand up in the athleticism dep't or am I missing something?

Thanks for having a crack at the mock, swap out Travaglia and Reid for Lindsay and J Whitlock (next 2 picks) Oliver instead of M Whitlock (again the next pick) Gerreyn instead of Dodson and I reckon you nailed it.

4 KPP's is overkill

The you think that the talls in contention to be selected on the first night are 'worthy' 1st round selections compared to previous draft years, or more of a reach this year due to FOMO?

To me there certainly isn’t any KP player that you go, “OMG!”, like a Walter or Darcy, for example. They are either aggressive but a bit small, tall but a little timid, just no one that you think is a “must get”.
North like Tauru, for example, but he’s got a caveat attached to his kicking, and seems smallish to me.
Armstrong? Beautiful kick, but is he a contested beast, or more a mark and kick type?
Shanahan looks pretty well rounded, out of all the ones I’ve seen, but again doesn’t look in same league as previous other KPF’s in drafts gone by.

Yeah they're all mostly rightfully in contention, there isn't the 'next Buddy/ Carey/ Ablest Snt' tag following any ans I think most people have been disappointed by the lack of dominance from any of them, but traits wise they're all up there with most of the recent KPP first rounders

I know nothing so this is entirely stabs in the dark and a collation of rumours, and the order could be wrong idek.

I hate you! Lalor #1

I have faith that Cats will snag a decent pick.

PM who do you think we'll look at late draft probably 60s with our 3rd pick ?
