Spoiler: LIVE DRAFT ORDER (2023 Draft Order)

Which big bodied mid would you have considered?

Stevens

 

[owen87]

I am a bit underwhelmed about night two.
we drafted two half back flankers.
Lual showed some flashes at half back especially early in the year but fizzled out a bit in my opinion.
was tried as an o baller which was a failure.
roberts is a prolific half back that has not convinced me he can beat an opponent.
I was probably hoping for an inside big bodied mid.

Can't wait to see him smashing puny guys like Green, Cripps and Oliver out of the way.

Hopefuly with some pants on though...

Stevens

I really wanted stevens too. It’s practically a free hit that late in the draft.

We got what we needed in that draft: a strong marking forward, a run-and-carry defender and a good ball user. Now just have to get their development right.

Yes, but this is Essendon so we're actually planning on playing Caddy as a big-bodied midfielder, bulking up Lual so he can't run or carry, and using Roberts as a lockdown defender.

 

[Atavistic]

Do we go for a small forward in the rookie draft, like Callinan, or go another HBFer, like Phallictides?

If it’s an outside player I hope it’s Sam clohesy

 

[MarkJohnson#1]

Stevens

Question marks on his athleticism and hurt factor and may well have topped out potential wise given his size in the junior ranks. I think the game is moving away from those big slow inside types anyway. Happy to be proven wrong...
