Those who have watched the VFL for a few games, do you reckon Harry Arnold is a serious chance to be drafted by us? We probably need another tall on the list and we won't have any high draft picks left after matching Ashcroft and Fletcher. Since he's 23 I figure he'll be ready to step into the seniors fairly soon if needed.

I quite like him. Looks to have excellent composure and makes ok choices.

Haven't really seen enough and it's hard to tell in the sort of matches he's been playing in but he looks better than some of the others who we think are good prospects.

He looks good but I have more faith in Connor McFadyen being a Ryan Lester type defender he’s really impressed me this year

Yeah .I don't really see enough of them to know. The problem in this era is that those on the list who aren't getting Senior games don't get to play a lot of competitive footy. It's a problem that the game should do more to address.

No doubt in my mind that Connor McFadyen will be gonski at the end of the year.

I can see Uosis and Cox gone from the rookie list. That opens up one Cat A and one Cat B spot.

jr is signed as a Cat B rookie.

We can delist a player like Cockatoo, who is contracted for another year, with the promise to redraft him in the rookie draft.

Or leave Lester or TBerry out of contract, as a delisted free agent, with the promise of drafting them in the rookie draft.

Which ever way we go, we have four available list spots to take to the draft.

We trade our first round pick for the highest return possible, and take 4 picks to the draft.

We keep all our 2023 picks intact, so that gives us the opportunity to trade any pick on draft night.

Match the the Ashcroft bid.

Depending on where the Fletcher bid comes, we can look to trade our future first or second round pick out for later picks in this year’s draft, to match the bid.

Or if our late picks still retain points, depending where they land at the back end of the draft, hope they carry enough points to only carry a small deficit in to 2023.

And to carry on from my previous post.

The current commentary about this year’s draft pool and state teams for the national championships is, it’s a little lite on for key defenders, but there’s a lot of key forwards, forward rucks, ruck forwards and rucks.

If we get to late in the first round, and there hasn’t been a bid for Fletcher yet, we could look to trade our future first in to the back end of the first round of the draft, or a very early second round pick, and move our first 2023 pick up a year early.

I’m looking at the “long game” here, if Ashcroft nominates us, and Levi Ashcroft has a good year and good U16 championships, we might look to move our 2024 first round pick in to 2023 down the track.

I suppose it all gets back to whether Ashcroft nominates us. If he does we have him and can then plan around that.

If Josh Carmichael from West Adelaide lasted until one of our late picks he'd be a great pickup as a mature ager

First I was excited and then I remembered that we will evaluate and critique every word he says or does not say tonight.

It's whether or not he smiles whenever he says Brisbane Lions, that's what counts.

 

[LIONS08]

Geez this brings back memories

 

[Hollow Knight]

He’s not suddenly going to use AFL360 to announce he is nominating earlier than expected. There will be enough ambiguity for people to freak out.

They’ll also throw him a carefully worded leading question to get a “I love living in Melbourne” soundbite.

 

[bungalow_bill]

When is the earliest he can nominate?

 

[Elixuh]

If he doesn’t smile but also hasn’t nominated us is that good or bad?

 

[Elixuh]

LOL Sheezel had ‘Sandringham forward’ underneath his name. Ashcroft had ‘Marcus’ son’.

 

[Pns_blister]

Washcroft stated "i'm a Queenslander at heart" in the interview...

 

[LIONS08]

It was a very typical interview…. But I did love the little line he reeled off above!

Yeah i did get a kick out of that. Have to wait and see though.

 

[JasRulz63]

Think Daicos was announced to have formally nominated Collingwood in August last year, but I remember Bailey Scott who had the choice of North, Geelong or GC, nominated his choice after the season (around October).

 

[MacMum]

What about Casey Voss? Are we taking him as well? He's being talked about quite a bit in glowing terms these last few days...

We don’t have a list spot or need in his position (half back flanker).

I was hoping that he would say that he has already played and won two VFL games with the Lions in the last few weeks!
