Best value pick of the draft for me. Chatting to lance and losing your 1st round pick has had zero impact IMO.

 

[VelvetSledge]

Absolute steal for us. Unbelievable that he fell to #20.

 

[TheFrenchCut]

I have no clue about Laverde but Keane and Dodoros massive grin was more than enough for me

It was venturing upon s**t-eating levels. Good luck to Laverde!

 

[Affidavit]

I know nothing about the draft and everyone is pleased with him so naturally I am as well. However, everyone else passed on him so how could he slide so far? Stacked draft?

 

[fishardansin]

Oh god if you want a laugh go to the Blues draft thread on them getting some unknown shittruck leaving this guy for us

Have you seen the tweet by the Scania bagging Carlton and/or Malthouse?

Why did everyone cheer when he was called out was a little strange haha

First thing I thought when I heard the cheer was " he must be from an Essendon family"

Had come to terms with him going at like 5-6 up until about a week ago, and I can't work out why he didn't.

Kid is a star and has a massive bag of tricks

As stacked as when Fyfe went at 20. This will be a mistake half a dozen recruiters may regret - including ours.

We'll just settle on beating you and finishing higher than you.

Surely a Fyfe comparison is getting carried away. However, he played alongside Ellis at the Jets. Who would you prefer and why? I notice at the state carnival he averaged more posessions than Ellis and is taller, heavier and faster ... and looks more dangerous up forward. I do realise that it is only highlights and Ellis looks like he tackles and hunts the ball better than Laverde.

2 questions: Is he quick? How quick?

 

[Brenno]

That side step he has is silk

He's quick - at least as quick as Winderlich

 

[Ashton Agar]

After such a terribly emotional and distressing day for me, losing my boy of all boys, I was stoked to get Laverde. Was over the moon for a little period, before hitting the wall again.

Welcome Jayden. Really exciting prospect.

IMO Laverde has a much high ceiling - he is similar to Ellis but add pace and X factor. I think he will step into afl a lot easier than Ellis. Ellis reminds me of Myers but Laverde had Fyfe/Wingard about him. Ellis will be solid - Laverde a potential superstar. I am filthy - we had the chance.
