List Mgmt. 2014 AFL Draft Discussion

[Deadeyeroo]

Don't get the fascination. Has speed but is skinny and drifts in and out of games. Pickett, Garlett and Cockatoo are better options to me personally.

Agreed is skinny and can be inconsistent. Merely named him for his pace but would rather Pickett also, I just dont think Pickett will be there at 16. As for Garlett he turns it over too much for me. I hope Cocky is there at 16 as I think this guy has immense upside.

 

[GS WARRIORS]

The utensil reminds me a bit of Goodes in the way he moves. Also the ex Fre player Koops (he sure if spelt correctly).

Smith, where do you think he will go? Around 25 or 36? Has dropped back this year but has speed and hardness. Probably a better kick than he has showed this year.

 

[Harris 10]

I'm happy for us to go best available with 1st pick, no matter what position he plays.
With our other picks being based on needs.

So this thread took an interesting turn...

Surprised it didn't come sooner actually.

Is that what she said? Perhaps.

 

[chaelsonnen]

Someone slides every year, hope it's Pickett. Would be equally as happy if that slider turns out to be someone like Tyler Durdin.

 

[Benno_900]

Cocky seems to go for the fend-off as his first instinct.

May not get away with it at AFL level.

[Mordecai]

The utensil reminds me a bit of Goodes in the way he moves. Also the ex Fre player Koops (he sure if spelt correctly).

Was going to say the same thing.

 

[Dan]

Goodes is more of a utensil...

 

[Johndory]

utensil all day every day

 

[Johndory]

I'd still go weller before utensil though if he's there. Looks like harbrow but a midfielder.

Do not want langford first pick. Can't kick.

 

[GS WARRIORS]

Not interested in De Goey either he fades in and out of games too much. Not as good a kick as it's made out on the draft boards as well.

If we are going to go with a flanker type Duggan is the stand out for me, he has the most potential to make it in the midfield. Probably the bestdecision maker by hand and foot in this draft.

Laverde and Ahern i'd be happy with as well both are at home in the middle.

Looking at Duggan's vid, he looks like an elite kick. Are there any better kicks this year? if so who?

He looks quicker than I thought. Is he quick enough to play with Cunners, Ziebell and Dumont?

 

[KangaFan35]

Cocky seems to go for the fend-off as his first instinct.

May not get away with it at AFL level.

Yeah but you would rather him take the game on.

 

[Kangaroos4eva]

With all this discussion about utensil I am surprised toes hasn't been involved.

 

[Mordecai]

Not as good a kick as it's made out on the draft boards as well.

It looks like a kick he's invented to cover his weaknesses. It bails him out of a lot of trouble.

Just watched the Duggan video and he is a smooth mover. He reminds me of Pendles, always seems to have plenty of time, good overhead and a great kick. I dont think he'll be there at 16, he's likely to go top 10 for me.

Oscar Macdonald looks to be a guy who can play either end of the ground and is also a good mark and kick. I can see him taking a year or 2 though.

Reece McKenzie very impressive power forward. Has strong hands and a big body which makes it tough for defenders to get a fist into spoil. If he's at 25 I want him.

Kyle Langford looks like a decent player who can play forward or back. If we get him for 36 i'd be all for it.

Jordan Cunico looks like a medium half forward who a decent kick, no thanks have plenty of those.

Connor Menadue looks like a pacy type fwd/mid. Had good skills on the right side but suspect on the left. Looks to be a Shaun Atley clone to me.

Hugh Goddard is a tall KPD/KPF. Very impressed with his aerial skills, looks like a key defender of great promise.

Sam Durdin is a KPF who's a great mark and kick although expect it to be a few years before he is cracking into the seniors.

Paul Ahern is a mid who looks like has a good all round game, he reminds me of Bastinac the way he moves. Dont think he will make pick 16 but would have to be the best available if he does.

Brayden Maynard has a beautiful left foot kick and is good overhead. He looks to be a good size also and could slot straight into a lowly ranked side.

Dillon Viojo-Rainbow has got to be one of the best kicks I have seen for a young player. He looks to be a Medium HF/HB with good pace and a bullet left foot. I'd be happy with this guy at 36 he's all class.

Jayden Laverde looks like a very nice mid who's got it all. He reminds me of a Ziebell and if he's available at 16 he ours.

Tom Lamb is a KPF who has good skills, pretty much can do it all. Whether he can transition it into senior football is the question but would be a good late pickup.

Jack Lonie is a quick small fwd who is a good left foot kick. Could possibly break into a lower ranked side but I would rather Viojo-Rainbow.

Lukas Webb is another left footer who plays a Half forward role, has good skill but dont know about his skills on the right hand side, Meh.

Josh Glenn is another silky left footer. Another later pick imo.

Toby Mclean is a high marking Fwd/mid who i'm really impressed with. He reminds me of Stephen Milne only a better mark. Can take a grab the kid and expect him to go 10-20's.

Damien Cavka looks to be a med fwd with good skills. Another late pick for me who will need time in the VFL.

Nathan Drummond looks like a good size mid who has really good skills and is dangerous around the goals. Doesnt look anything flash but does the basics very well.

Caleb Marchbank is a tall Key defender/forward who has excellent hands and is rarely outmarked. He has excellent skills both sides of the body and is likely a high draft pick.

Jake Lever is between a tall defender who also has good hands. Reads the play well and is also a decent kick. Never seen him kick on the left but seems to play on when given only a small amount of space.

Aidan Anderson is a small forward who is an excellent mark for his size. He reminds me of in form Dale Thomas the way he moves. Late pick for me 40+.

Harrison Wigg lol...love the name. Harrison plays as a med defender and he has an excellent left foot kick. He reads the play well and gets off his man more offen than not. Another Mullet clone who i'd expect to go 30+.

Connor Blakely looks to be a mid that can play stints forward or back. Has good kicking skills both sides of the body and reads the play well. Looks to be a good future prospect.

Jordan DeGoey is a midfielder who is an excellent and is very courageous. Theres not much more to say about this kid other than expect him to go early under 20 for sure.

Clem Smith is a small defender/mid who kick exactly the same as Byron Pickett. He is quite dangerous around the goals and is a very good kick. I expect one of the WA teams to pick him up.

 

[GarnerSmash]

Everyone gagging for utensil it seems. Interesting times on the board.

 

[Benno_900]

Yeah but you would rather him take the game on.

No doubt but he appears to still look to fend off even when he has an obvious option to play the 1-2.

Although I'm only going by short clips here.

 

[TennisPlayerAndy]

Everyone gagging for utensil it seems. Interesting times on the board.

You stole my line.

 

[Reginald0]

But we need a kpd
Grima Hansen tarrant all injury prone
Tippett didn't get a game with GC
Goddard surely

 

[GS WARRIORS]

No doubt but he appears to still look to fend off even when he has an obvious option to play the 1-2.

Although I'm only going by short clips here.

When your almost 18 playing against 16/17 year olds, you might just want to use your strength and push them off.

It's the only game/highlights most if not all of us on here have seen.

 

[LB2Snake]

Looks out of our range, but wouldn't mind duggan sliding. Ridic disposal on both sides.
Menadue awesome skillset too.......super smooth
Watching Garlett vid makes me remember Winnie
