Who DON'T you want your team to draft? 2023 Edition

[PMBangers]

A new staple of the DTFA board heading into the draft, lets hear about the players you don't want your team to take with their first 1 or 2 picks. Some personal highlights through the years;

Melbourne NOT to draft Luke Jackson at 3.

Ruckmen are not that important, and Melbourne already has a top ruck, plus a competent backup in Preuss.

Would be a ridiculous pick. Will not be re-signing membership if Dees pick Jackson, will get a GWS membership instead.

Dont want any talls except Jackson or McAsey. No to Worrell De Koning etc.
Dont want Weightman or Pickett (low production) or Bergman (too inconsistent not durable) or Bianco.

I don't want Wanganeen-Milera at 9 (11). He looks like a gorgeous kick, but he's not overly quick and he appears very outside. Probably has the biggest bust potential of all the players linked to our pick.

AND OF COURSE, links to former threads to enjoy (please do not troll the really bad answers xx);

We hear about the players everyone wants all the time, but this thread always presents a fun opportunity for people to end up with egg on their face in a couple of years time, or for your views to be proven right and have ultimate bragging power in the future! 2021 Edition 2019 Edition

Bumped - Who DON'T you want? (2019)

The premise has been done before and is pretty simple. Who DON'T you want your club to draft with your first Pick or 2. I remember i replied Blaine Friggin Boekhurst in his corresponding year and believe me i was still getting likes from no doubt wellwishing oppo fans years later. So have at...

[Jhye Clark 13]

Nate Caddy.

 

[TerryWallet]

Our 1st Pick is 22(probably be 26 or so on the night.)

I wouldn't take/don't want:

Darcy Wilson
Archie Roberts
George Stevens

Love this thread each year. My fave was saying i don't want Boekhorst at any selection, let alone our first.

POW....Shane Rogers by KO.

 

[Swanssince91]

Harley Reid

 

[The Nostradamus]

Zane Duursma

 

[Orange crush]

Leake with pick 7

 

[Ash1337]

Zane Duursma

Out of curiosity why not? It's like the team has good forwards.

Gives me cale Morton vibes

Lanky type that drifts forward and mid

We need small forwards and KPP or gun hbf

 

[chopflop]

Zane Duursma
Dan Curtin

Rate others higher at our spot.
Probably will be wrong.

 

[plays tall 1]

Riley Hardeman. His kicking worries me, missed plenty of targets in games I’ve seen. Would prefer a HBF/winger with accurate disposal.

Colby McKercher. Looks a great prospect but I think he’s a very high flight risk due to the Tassie team’s entry.

 

[calder_daddy]

Riley Sanders

 

[Red Black and Blue]

Wilson and O'Sullivan.

 

[ToxicMegaPunts]

Curtain & Watson.

 

[StonesThrow]

Looking forward to getting these wrong.

Sanders looks like a possession getter with low hurt factor. We already have enough of these types.

O'Sullivan because I'm scarred by key defenders using high picks (Curtin has more tools though and I like the look of him).

 

[Pure_Ownage]

Windsor because he has no contested game-gives me Jimmy Toumpas

McKercher or Sanders, not because I don't rate them but because they would be priority targets for Tassie when they enter the comp.

People are reading this wrong.

When Tassie join they will be given some amazing assets to bring in players, they will be flush with high picks and they will overpay in a big way.

When it comes to the AFL and us I never assume anything lol. We would be lucky to get an expired bag or Doritos.

 

[PenAndPaper]

Watson. I just really don't see it for a top 5 pick.

Yeah but think most would rather a 22 year old heading into their prime then getting paid overs in draft picks for 18 year olds

 

[Mofra]

Moir
Nyko

 

[Kangaroos4eva]

Watson or Curtin.

 

[Blackhawk42]

McKercher will be a gun, but I'd be concerned adding him to our list with the number of promising mids we already have.

Curtin also looks a gun, but I don't see where his best position is for us since we're stacked for mids and tall, athletic half backs.

I'm all in on the Wizard bandwagon, so anyone else we pick is technically somebody I don't want us to draft.

 

[year of the cat]

Windsor because he has no contested game-gives me Jimmy Toumpas vibes.

I was initially off him for similar reasons but there's a bit of the Isaac Smith's about him I reckon. Better kick too.

 

[The Gtrain]

Anyone in the top 20 except Reid
