Sid Draper vs Mattaes Phillipou

[Cleric]

Being two of the better SA mids in the last couple of years, how would these two compare against each other at the same time?
I think Phillipou is the better one, but with talk about how this draft is a super draft, am I right that alot of people have Draper higher?

I would say it's a super draft because of its depth, not because of its top end talent

Phillipou for me

We still have no idea where Pou's ceiling is. He was struggling big time this year before going back to the VFL to work on his game and then averaged 22.5 disposals, 6.5 tackles, 4.3 clearances and a goal a game over his last 4 matches. Looking forward to seeing what he can do with renewed confidence and another pre season.

I'd take Draper at 1 this year.

I'd probably take Pou at 1 this year as well?

Draper is class personified and I'm probably taking him over Pou but could be totally wrong. Always been a massive Pou fan.

 

[ScrappyDo]

Such different players it's hard to compare. Pou has more potential match winner about him and Draper is closer to the finished product.
As it stands l would not swap Pou for Draper right now so that answers that, but I'd love to get him in this year.

Hopefully Crows have both shortly

Pou is such a unique talent has only scratched the surface of what he could become his upside is ludicrous.

That's what is so scary and exciting about him.

I'm sure Draper will be a stud. But as much as I hate it if Port and Adelaide are not already in Pou's managements ear already they have rocks in there heads

This is a no brainer sorry

It’s Draper. Mattaes has a higher ceiling sure, I don’t know if I see him getting there

Draper easily. I don't rate Pou at all.

 

[Scythe94]

Draper by a fair distance

Draper is in the conversation as the best SA prospect of the modern era and would be in the #1 pick discussion if he was born in Melbourne.

I like Phillipou, but he was nowhere close to the likes of Gibbs/JHF/Draper in their draft years.

Pou was the youngest player from his draft class. He’s 12-13 months older than Jagga Smith despite going two years earlier. If his last month of footy is anything to go by then the sky is the limit. Draper no doubt looks like a sure bet but does he have the POD that Pou possesses.
