Not sure if anyone saw it but Matt Balmer did a live draft chat on the fox footy website yesterday.
Only things of interest that really jumped out to me were-
He thinks Gould will slip into the 20's
He thinks Bergman will be top 15
He seems to think we might pick Bergman over McAsey - letting him slip to Geelong
Chats here if anyone is interested.

Aerial ability..So with what I said earlier, our off season haul of Bruce, Keath and McAsey/Bergman all have one thing in common....
Iceman, is his 2019 draft handle.Bergman has a booming kick as well, can kick 60 no problems. Would be a huge asset wherever he plays. Great size at 189cm, late birthday - could grow a tad more as well.

Hawthorn are rumored to be adding Hartley along with already bringing in Frost. Might be looking for something different to McAsey in the draft.Looks like McAsey will make it through to pick 13 considering in the chat he mentioned that the Hawks won’t take him. I also Don’t think the power will take him - why would they let go of Howard and recruit a guy that’s very similar? I think they are trying to change their list profile with different type of players.

Maybe. But neither of those two are A graders, and McAsey would have an extra 8 years of service in him. So I can see it happening. Also even by adding those two, the Hawks KPP depth is pretty weak.Hawthorn are rumored to be adding Hartley along with already bringing in Frost.

Have said it a few times over the years. One way teams seem to get to us, is by controlling the ball/pace of the game. And you do that by being able to mark well across the ground and keeping it off of us. A few of our guys seem to be easily pushed aside in one on one marking contests or fail to win it in the air. Plus its a downside as well when attacking because the ball spills to the ground or we are forced to be live most of the time and thus higher odds of turnovers occurring.
That’s kind of what I thought. Do we need another? A forward line of Naughton, Bruce, Schache, Dale, Bergman plus JUH in the future is very tall/med in height. Lloyd is pretty medium as well. He sounds exciting yet I’m struggling with seeing the balance.Bergman reminds me a lot of bailey dale from the very small amount of highlights I’ve watched .
I agree mate. But I honestly couldn’t care who we draft this year I’m just stoked we kept pick 13 and got Keith and brucey, so who ever we pick at 13 Is a massive bonus . So i would be more then happy to take Bergman , McAsey or weightman etcThat’s kind of what I thought. Do we need another?

Id prefer a player who could slot onto a wing ( if mcasey is gone)IS there a vid of bergman?
Unless he has the prospect of being really damaging, including under pressure, Id prefer the solid KPP.
Dont let the very rare situation of bagging two good KPPs via trade lull us into thinking we have KPP positions covered.
Bergman is quick and I think has pretty good endurance so they might see him fitting in there. Has the potential to be a real line breaker with his speed and long kicking.Id prefer a player who could slot onto a wing ( if mcasey is gone)
