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

[PMBangers]

Is Harrison Oliver a Bailey Dale type, or does he have some defensive accountability too?

For an U18 he's got a really good defensive drive considering how good he is offensively, and commits to impacting contests well too

Hey mate, love your work.

Who have you got rated as the best ball users in this draft?

Finn O'Sullivan is the best well rounded user and the best decision maker.

Lindsay, Oliver, Hayes, Berry are some of the better kicks

Jagga and Travaglia stand out with their use by hand in terms of expansiveness

Thanks mate. Appreciate the response.

Really like Oliver's kicking technique also, reminds me of Sinclair & his well weighted kicking.

I just can't take this name seriously. Come on parents, you've taken the hyphen too far.

Sniffy duff Taylor would of been more apt.

Bangers as a RMC guy, is there any reason why every time I go to the website this year I see 90% women's AFL content.

Am I landing on the wrong page?

PMBangers does Riaks job on Armstrong change anything for Riak? I’m with u that I don’t think he’s good enough yet. But maybe there is something there to work with?

. They can win 1-1 contests as as well as be the quarterback distributor. Very good pickup wherever he goes. Tough as well.

I haven't watched the game but my initial reaction is still no, it'd have to have been an all round dominant display to move the needle, and even then I doubt one game in isolation does that

Can we get a new Top 30 PMBangers? Anything changed for you?

Not for a while yet, still have to find the free time to watch the WA and SA finals, but definitely a few from Vic have pushed into contention at the very least with some good finals performances

Hey PMBangers long time my man! What's the chance Jack Whitlock can get through to the Giants first pick? Can he help out in the ruck? Good Pairing with Cadman for the future? I feel we have the small forwards sorted. Any other players you think the Giants should target?

I certainly think he'll be around the mark at our pick and would be a good long term solution to our second ruck situation.

Personally I think midfielders and cleaner ball users from the back half are needed, someone like Tom Gross as a harder edged midfielder could give us a lot in the long run, and Harry Oliver/ Xavier Lindsay are two defenders I love.

I also think Caruso's drafting history suggests Alix Tauru will be firmly in our sights if available

Where do you have Ollie Hannaford now? Pretty decent yesterday playing midfield against the might of the stacked Sandy midfield, 24 disposals 7 clearances, 7 i50's, 9 tackles and 1.1.

Without having dome Amy real notes consolidation, he should be in my top 30, I'm a sucker for pressure smalls afterall

How confident are you that he'll still be available at North's second pick - #22?

I’d be gutted if the Tiges let him slide if there at 21

Yeah I'm getting the feeling it might be an outside chance at this point.

Maybe Berry tho?

Sounds like you guys better do us a deal on 2 for 6 and 13 then.
