Aye Aye Bruce.

Agility for a small forward looks pretty average though.

Nice of Tex to lend the new kid his theme music.

The last player left in our talent order according to Hamish. Jonty Scharenburg must have had a terrible year to go from top 20 to undrafted.

Was All Australian. Played plenty of league footy at Glenelg. Bewildering. Some ordinary athletic testing at the combine maybe. Last year was seen as a top 5 pick.

Yeah, he packed up his paperwork after making this pick.

 

[Danger in Texas]

Watching these highlights, he has some serious forward nous and confidence.

Really like this pick

That's not necessarily a good thing, could mean other clubs were drafting very astutely

 

[macca23]

Galucci, Signorello, Poholke, Himmelberg and Davis.

How the hell did a name like Davis get in there.

 

[Squiba]

I know ABSOLUTELY NOTHING about him. Will be interested to see how he develops.

 

[mistylake]

Preferable to jonah hill

Future selector maybe.
Brings his own moneyball

Massive shock. Thought he'd be picked up between 30 - 50 for sure. Collingwood even overlooked him. Surely he gets drafted as a rookie. Too good not to.

Agility for a small forward looks pretty average though.

186cm is pretty tall for a small forward. He is at a pick where quite a few clubs had already passed so I am not expecting to see him get more than a game or two (AFL), but you can see why we have taken a punt on him.

Getting closer to picking SA lads.

Getting closer to picking SA lads.

mate we all get it - now go away.

 

[adelaidecrows]

I thought I saw a bit of Menzel brilliance in him. Looks a talent. Certainly can hit his targets under pressure which probably will see him playing a half forward role. Guess we will get a better idea when he starts playing in the SANFL.

 

[Golumless]

Getting closer to picking SA lads.

Maybe in the rookie draft.

 

[Golumless]

I'm going to guess a project player? I'm content with that this late in the draft.
