Pick 77 - Malakai Champion

If we trade our/Hawks future 2nd and get another in the 25 - 40 range take Hamish Davis/ Luke Urquhart

 

[Lyyynnnchy]

i would be happy with Shanahan, certainly. Someone on here pointed to this before - go talls this year when everyone is frothing over the mids. I think it's a smart strategy. We have multiple firsts next draft year, plus NGAs, to rectify the midfield. Go for it, I reckon.

Noooooo. No talls with our first. There are so many bombs with KPs taken in the first round. We can’t afford a Brander, Patton, Butcher, Watts etc etc

Yeees, Shanahan is a competitive beast.

Yeeees I'm bored and another 6 days to go.

 

[TOA.]

Let's not forget we took Archer Reid with our second pick last year (when many wanted a mid).

Part of my reluctance with talls, especially interstate ones, is they take 3-4 years to really hit their straps and by that time there is a half reasonable chance they will want to leave if from interstate (or earlier when their value is low and stings even more).

Tbf we picked up a mid a few picks after.
We find most of our best key talls mid to late in the draft or rookie draft, so no reason to use 1st round picks on talls unless they're Jed Walter.

 

[mattyc75]

Can't believe some ppl would be happy to take shanahan or any tall at our first. If there's zero mids left then split it.

Sometimes I wonder if I watch the same midfield as everyone else (mostly the club).

 

[ROYAL EAGLE]

means we have 1 less pick in the main draft . I'm still hoping for 4 picks + malakai in the main draft.

There are some really good players that will be still available 30 - 60

If we could do the essendon trade of
F2 wce for 28 + 31
Then after kako bid
F2 ess for 26

The hawks f3 for late 40s pick we can use live so not swallowed up by malakai bid

Out gaff darling barrass Jones rotham witherden ledwards culley * trew *

In Baker, Graham, owies

pick 12 TT , xavier Lindsay, bo Allan

pick 28 olli Hannaford, Hamish Davis , harrison Oliver

Pick 31 Hamish Davis , Angus Clarke , Hugh Boxshall

Pick 40s Clancy Dennis , luke Urquhart

NGA malakai

Rookie pick knobel

Sheed retires in Burgeil SSP

Pick 40 would rather Charlie Nicholls than Dennis like Boxshall or Artemis or Zac Johnson would be great

Zac Johson has some real class to his game

Rookie Will Hayes I believe is the most underrated player in this draft elite elite kick runs all day

Would love all of Dennis, Hayes and Artemis at the club

Ideally we use at least 5, possibly 6 draft/rookie draft picks :

Pick 12 - Travaglia, Lindsay, Allan, Reid in that order of preference - at least one will be there

Pick 26 - Best Mid/HBF available - Davis, Ough, Moraes, Oliver, Hannaford etc

Pick 30-50 via trade - Best KPD if available or another mid - Barrat, O’Farell, Mraz or Boxshall, Urquhart types

Pick 72 - Match Champion bid

Pick 77 - Project KPD if one not already drafted or best running player available. This pick will be in the 60’s and there almost certainly will be someone worthwhile still on the board Hopefully someone like Artemis, Bell, Dennis or Hayes is here

RD pick 3 - I doubt it happens but Knobel here makes some sense. Alternatively best available or pass

If we use our rookie pick it leaves just one spot open, presumably Burgiel provided he earns it

Then one other SSP acquisition if we don’t use that rookie pick

Sheed retiring would open another spot to be filled via a SSP selection should that happen

If we take Shanahan....The BBM we've never had

Big Board Melts?

Eagles young gun suffers concussion in training

Eagles gun Harley Reid will be in non-contact training after suffering a concussion

www.afl.com.au

WEST Coast young gun Harley Reid has suffered a concussion in the first week of pre-season training.

The Eagles confirmed on Thursday that Reid, the No.1 pick in the 2023 Telstra AFL Draft, had entered concussion protocols after sustaining a head knock at training on Wednesday.

Noooooo. No talls with our first. There are so many bombs with KPs taken in the first round. We can’t afford a Brander, Patton, Butcher, Watts etc etc

I agree about not taking a KPP with our first pick

I disagree with the rationale. Brendan Fevola was the last Coleman medallist truly drafted after the first round. No Coleman medallists have been truly drafted this century after R1

KPDs are a different story but you only listed KPF examples

It's not because of the likelihood of a bust, it's because we don't need a 5th talented KPF and yes, history says KPDs can be found later in the draft

 

[InsideBull]

This reminds me a bit of when we were linked to Busslinger and Jefferson heavily in 2022 with our second (split) first round pick. The pre-emptive melts were fierce.

100%

The last 2 years have seen us take Ginbey (as a mid), Hewett, HReid, Hall, Johnston

I don't think this shows a lack of trying to recruit midfielders

Probably the most interesting parts below

"The West Australian understands the Eagles have shown interest in the 21-year-old defender, who they will consider as either a rookie or a train-on over the summer with a chance to be recruited during the pre-season supplemental selection period."

"It is understood the Eagles are likely to leave a spot on their list open over the summer with at least two players to train-on under new coach Andrew McQualter."

"Eagle Coby Burgiel has also been invited to train at the club after being delisted following two injury-hit seasons, which restricted him to only 15 WAFL games after being drafted with pick No.29 in 2022."

That’s it, season over and fold the club. Move to Bunbury.

At least we will play one game there
