Draft Day is here

Unlike last year when the excitement of adding No.1 pick Harley Reid to our list was palpable (and also near certain), this draft is uncertain and viewed with equal parts excitement and trepidation

We go into the first night with pick 12, which is expected to slide to 15 after academy and Father Son selections and a lot of guesswork on who we’ll take. Or even if we actually use that pick with rumours circulating that we might trade up or back

Night two we have pick 26 (subject to change) along with a gaggle of late picks. Again, there’s the possibility of trading into the draft with another pick using one of our later future picks and even less certainty on who we might pick

The one near guarantee is that NGA product, Malakai Champion, will be an Eagle at some point over the next couple of days

So sit back and watch to see how the draft unfolds whilst praying we don’t do something stupid

Spent a decade and half unsuccessfully developing every flaker we drafted into mids and we still haven’t learned a thing

Except Yeo.

Ginbey's stats and vibe stack up really well to Yeo's at the same age - definitely both players that will take 3-5 years to settle into that role as opposed to those with immediate nous in the role which may give a bit of pain short term but think overall it'll be exciting.

With Reid at least the physicality and competitiveness elements we've been missing should feel settled for our next tilt, can afford to add a possession pig type next draft.

looking forward to allen v murphy comparisons for the next 15 years.
 
so we turned picked 3 into liam baker, matt owies, and the best available wa player

not bad all things considered
