I'm not saying pick Langford but he is a very nice kick. Agree with CP, Langford is one-paced and I'd go for Allan because of his pace (and love his aggression). But he's not as good a kick.Agree on Reid's kicking.
I'm not convinced on Langford. Something still irks me with him. If we were to get 1, 6, 7 & 12 then give me the other 4 and I'll pack Rioli and Bolton's bags no issues.
I'll even drive them. Bolton might be shitty driving to Perth via GC but tough luck.
So many good kids in this pool.Stocks rising fast, as I mentioned to you last week, would love this kid especially if Riolio leaves. Start at HB then becoming a damaging mid in a couple of years.
When does this kid ever play a bad game!!Stocks rising fast, as I mentioned to you last week, would love this kid especially if Riolio leaves. Start at HB then becoming a damaging mid in a couple of years.
So is Jayden Short's.His kicking is classed as elite.
HB or mid, he just steps up. We often see pacey HB's step into the midfield and be incredibly damaging. Saints and Dogs found a couple of jet mids off HB they just do so much more damage with ball in hand.When does this kid ever play a bad game!!
Geez he plays at a consistently high level
So is Jayden Short's.
I like him but we need pace and he don't have it.
What has Lalor done to be in front of Reid? I don't get the hype with this kid.Welcome aboard.
Lack of pace, kicks some up and unders; lacks penetration. Very good player but think he's 10-15 myself.
His kicking could improve and is nowhere near best in class. FOS, Lalor, Lindsay, Langford, Armstrong are among the best.
It would have been nice to see him get a run through the midfield in the Nationals, having said that he was incredible off hb metres gained over the championship would have to have been up with the best , if not no 1.HB or mid, hen just steps up. We often see pacey HB;s step into the midfield and be incredibly damaging. Saints and Dogs found a couple of jet mids off HB they just do so much more damage with ball in hand.
And even moreso if we lose our 2 fastest players in Shai and Rioli, but even if not, pace is the future.
Lalor is a better kick. He's not a plodder, just hasn't been fully fit. Extremely strong in the contest and in the air.What has Lalor done to be in front of Reid? I don't get the hype with this kid.
Reid was Metro's best player in 2 of the Champs games and won their MVP award in front of Smille, Smith and Ashcroft.
Lalor looks like a bit of a plodder
Prolific output in this game from Moraes who managed to bag 5 goals along with his usual high possession count playing predominantly on ball with occasional stints forward. His forward craft has matured over the course of the season, he showed his capability as a lead/mark target and was especially dangerous at forward 50 stoppages getting on the move, collecting the ball off the tap and rapidly getting boot to ball to snap at goal. I'd still like to see him improve his consistency with his field kicking, but if he can continue to deliver like this he might find his draft stocks rising again after they slid a little in recent weeks.
What if we end with pick 2 and the team with 1 take Ludowyke? What if Ludowyke does an ACL? Sharp, Greeves, Onley and Rodriguez are also very good so what if Ludowyke is more a 5-10 rated player do we reach on pick 1?Is it worth just going all out on mids (FOS, Lalor, Hotton, Travaglia, Reid, Lindsay) this year and then draft Ludowyke next year. Can we make do with Lynch and some mix and match Key forwards for a couple of years whilst we rebuild?
I reckon we try and get Armstrong if we end up with a pick in that range. Then take one of Faull, Whitlocks, Shanahan, Simms, etc. a bit later.What if we end with pick 2 and the team with 1 take Ludowyke? What if Ludowyke does an ACL?

We should grab a key forward this year, whether it's Armstrong in top 10 or someone with a 20ish pick is up for debate. There will definitely be guys in our range.
It would be dangerous to ignore our KPF need again
Bullants are dogshitFirst vfl game shanahan 4G ess vfl v bullants ,, get him in y&b
100%, I would even take 2 if it falls that way.I reckon we try and get Armstrong if we end up with a pick in that range. Then take one of Faull, Whitlocks, Shanahan, Simms, etc. a bit later.
We should be able to get at least one tall forward in the door without reaching.
I agree, we should have the picks for Armstrong unless someone goes super early. Sims would be a nice fit with him. If we do all the trades that are rumoured we will likely be taking 6 or 7 players in the draft. Can get some mids and forwards with the other 4 or 5 picks. Maybe even Dodson comes into calculations.I reckon we try and get Armstrong if we end up with a pick in that range. Then take one of Faull, Whitlocks, Shanahan, Simms, etc. a bit later.

I want Faull, agressive KPF's are gold.I agree, we should have the picks for Armstrong unless someone goes super early. Sims would be a nice fit with him.

I reckon he'll go a bit higher than currently ranked. Mid-late first round.I want Faull, agressive KPF's are gold.
Agree, that's why I'm not that high on Shanahan. Kicked 4 against the worst team to ever exist but was all just lead/mark. I want to see some aggression at the ball and the man for defensive pressure.I want Faull, agressive KPF's are gold.
