CousinAny relation to Sam?
We don’t need Tom Green , wrong type for us . Good player and all butWhat if Anderson is there at our pick - would we risk bidding on Tom Green? - what if GWS passed!!
All the heads are in Melbourne including the Perth onesGreat Hamish interview - some interesting points:
[] When we make academy/FS bids, we have every intention of wanting to take the player bid on
[] We had Will Hamill in our top 20 rankings last year, made several attempts to trade up to get him but got him anyway
[] The way the bLoos pick swap looks like turning out is about how they though it would turn out
[] Luke Edwards is tracking really well but sounded to me to be a bit cagy about talking about him - maybe gels with the not everything is quite right with the Edwards situation?
[] He thinks the 2020 draft is looking promising
Also it sounds like he's definitely living and working out of Melbourne, which I think is good for us in that there's no leaving us to move back to Melb as he's already there, only a matter of keeping things sweet for him to stay with us. But I have to wonder if it means he doesn't get as good a read of SA draft hopefuls as he does the Vic kids?
Why do you think that?? An elite, bullocking big bodied inside mid. Which players do you think would complement our list ??We don’t need Tom Green , wrong type for us . Good player and all but
We would have to trade one or two crouches to accommodate GreenWhy do you think that?? An elite, bullocking big bodied inside mid. Which players do you think would complement our list ??
Lachie Ash has spent a little bit of time in the mids recently by accounts but yeah, doesn't seem like much on offer.I would think because if you can't land Green at 3, which seems unlikely as GWS would surely match, then the next group of guys expected to go high in the draft order are all flankers.
Ash is exactly what we need.Lachie Ash has spent a little bit of time in the mids recently by accounts but yeah, doesn't seem like much on offer.
Ogilvie says we'll be targeting tall mids or outside class, last thing we need are more flankers.
Luko still my first preference for pick 4 + Greenwood
Lachie Ash is the very personification of outside class and a metres gained player, and if you've ever seen him play he has plenty of hardness to his game as well.Lachie Ash has spent a little bit of time in the mids recently by accounts but yeah, doesn't seem like much on offer.

I like the sound of him but haven't seen enough to really comment. Is he worth more to us than Luko or two of Stephens et al. in your view?Lachie Ash is the very personification of outside class and a metres gained player, and if you've ever seen him play he has plenty of hardness to his game as well.
Luko probably not but we could really use Ash's line breaking speed, agility and dare, he's the metres gained guy in this draft. He's a quicker, harder Brodie Smith IMO. And he's a Vic Country boy from up Shepparton from the same club as Jordan Butts.I like the sound of him but haven't seen enough to really comment.

What range would he have gone in last year’s draft?Luko probably not but we could really use Ash's line breaking speed, agility and dare, he's the metres gained guy in this draft.

I still think Kemp goes inside top 10Wonder how far will Brodie Kemp drop due to his ACL and would we be willing to take a punt on him if we end up with a mid/late r1 pick?
That all gets down to personal preferences, put this way IMO he's a far quicker and more damaging player than Jordan Clark in the same role Clark played pre-draft and you've seen what Clark's capable of this year. Then again the player I would have taken apart from Lukosius with my pick last year was Bailey Smith and he went Pick 7. I still think Bailey Smith is a better footballer than last year's No.1 Sam Walsh because of his hurt factor something Ash has in spades.What range would he have gone in last year’s draft?
Theres some great highlights of him on the nab league app from each of his games this years. Same for all other players in the nab league.I like the sound of him but haven't seen enough to really comment. Is he worth more to us than Luko or two of Stephens et al. in your view?
I remember you saying that throughout last year about Smith and I totally agree with you. You were bang on the money. Dogs are building some sort of midfield if they can keep them together.That all gets down to personal preferences, put this way IMO he's a far quicker and more damaging player than Jordan Clark in the same role Clark played pre-draft and you've seen what Clark's capable of this year.

The Vic Country part was what got me interested in him in the first placeLuko probably not but we could really use Ash's line breaking speed, agility and dare, he's the metres gained guy in this draft. He's a quicker, harder Brodie Smith IMO. And he's a Vic Country boy from up Shepparton from the same club as Jordan Butts.
Going by the expert/recruiters, it is (from what I've read).No it's not!!! There's plenty of talent in this year's draft.
There will be very good players like Jay Rantall, Cooper Stephens, Riley Baldi, Elijah Taylor, Daniel Mott, Thomas Dow, Josh Worrell,Cody Weightman, Ned Cahill, Karl Finlay etc just to name a few off the top of my head who are unlikely to go in the 1st round or in some cases later in the draft that have every chance to have very good AFL careers.
From around these parts there's a Mortlake youngster Isaac Wareham that has hardly rated a mention in draft discussions but believe me he can really play and similar to Jordan Butts in his draft year with a very late December birthday [Christmas Eve] he's giving away almost 12 months development to a lot of the lads in this draft.....Isaac likely goes late National Draft-rookie draft. Would be an ideal option for us on a wing/outside mid with his height [187cm], speed, vision and good foot skills.
Hey Bicks I have a bit of a curly one for you. Where do you think Hately would go in this years draft?That all gets down to personal preferences, put this way IMO he's a far quicker and more damaging player than Jordan Clark in the same role Clark played pre-draft and you've seen what Clark's capable of this year. Then again the player I would have taken apart from Lukosius with my pick last year was Bailey Smith and he went Pick 7.

I've said for a while that their is a nice batch of guys in the 10-15 range that I like. Brodie Kemp (if he slides that far), Dylan Stephens, Sam Flanders, Will Gould, Luke Jackson.I won’t be surprised if we trade for pick value.
Binuk’s system values each pick. If we are offered a trade which gives a clear win in pick value we will take it. No emotional attachment to “but it would have been our highest pick ever”.
For example pick 4 for 10 + 13 + 20.
If there was a star top 8 like last year’s draft then maybe not. But it seems this year that after the top 2 opinions differ. If recruiters aren’t locked in then more tickets in the raffle is better.
TBH i've not seen much of Ash, but people seem to speak very highly of him. So looking forward to the footage coming out!I'm a big fan of Ash and also really rate Norwood pair Stephens and Taheny. I get a feeling the crows have their eye on Ash and will definitely get him with the Carlton pick.

Whoever marty says, the opposite
