So we rated him ahead of Joel Cochran but took a Punt that Dogs and Eagles would not pick him and we where right
Pies pick three at 2024 Draft
Collingwood has welcomed three new players on night two of the 2024 AFL Draft.
Bit of a risk in the era of live trading. If anyone wanted him then they could have traded up like the Suns did. Clearly there were a multiple players we were happy with and not all our eggs were in the West basket at that point of the night.So we rated him ahead of Joel Cochran but took a Punt that Dogs and Eagles would not pick him and we where right

What are his weaknesses? Right now he sounds like Wayne Carey with better athleticism.
Giving me Charlie Dixon vibes , attacks the ball like a bull , albeit a bit more aerobically advanced. Him and your man Ed for many years to come lighting it up in the Black and White.

Nothing says welcome to Collingwood like a thread starting from TradeDraft!
That's where they see the valueNo he didn’t because he never picks anyone above 195 cm as usual. Checkers size talls
They think height is a bit overvalued in kpos players ie the king's, mason cox etc aren't half as good as checkers who knows how to protect the ball drop
It's a calculated strategy to maximise value I'd say

Just checking in this morning to make sure I didn’t dream it - that we drafted a tall forward who won’t be blown over in a stiff breeze and has some mongrel about him.
Mon Dieu - what’s not to like about that?

Welcome Charlie to the Pies. Power forward, who is quick off the mark and bucket like hands l like what l have seen of him, and we have alot to work with here. Very exciting prospect....
How tall do you want him? He’s the same height as McStay, Cloke, taller than Curnow…No he didn’t because he never picks anyone above 195 cm as usual. Checkers size talls

Everything looked good except his kicking. They all seemed a bit pokey rather than the booming kick you’d expect from his persona.
But looks like a great bullocking target that we could do with up front

He does seem to have the attributes to make it. I am confident that our coaches will make sure he develops well.
Welcome, youg fella.

He won't be playing seniors for 3 years as his body is just not there yet even though he has nice frame already. AFL big men are all thick and heavier than him. Also his tank is work in progress and the game would be too fast for him... not everyone can be phenom like Naicos.
Other picks as well like Hayes and Cochran won't be playing seniors nor sniff it for a few years.
But just to temper expectations... we all are hoping Pies got a diamond in a rough scenario here. There are good reason why these players slipped this late. Hopefully all 3 are smart and hard workers because their deficiencies can be sorted out if they put in the work and are smart enough to understand other ways they can contribute.
