List Mgmt. 2019 Draft Prospects

[Mofra]

Agree, McAsey is looking like a lost cause with pick 15. He'll be top 10 because...Naughton. Clubs won't let a mobile tall guy with incredible mitts who attacks the marking contest slide out of the top 10. Naughton should have gone at pick 3, 4 or 5.

Naughton slid because of his kicking. McAsey doesn't have Naughton's pace, seems more a McGovern type which any club would be happy with anyway.

Part of me hopes he bombs for the first couple of years at the crows and we pick him up later. It's not like the Crows can keep all of their KPDs anyway (Davis, Lever, Keath)

 

[Mofra]

They look like entirely different players. The only similarities is the size/build.

And, reportedly, energy. For a smaller forward you need that energy.

 

[Lindsay_Gilbee]

Would still prefer Kemp. His highlights are top shelf.

 

[LoveDamoBarrett]

I have heard that, from someone who would know.
He's not a need but by god Dev Robertson is going to make recruiters look silly in coming years. He arguably had the most dominant champs in a decade, captained his side to win it all, played half a game with a dislocated shoulder and recruiters still think half a dozen guys playing uncontested rebound football are a better option.

Dare we remind everyone that the last HBFer to win a Norm Smith was a rookie lister?

I agree, crazy to think Deven Robertson slides all the way to Geelong's pick!

 

[CaptainMurphy]

Would still prefer Kemp. His highlights are top shelf.

I find it odd he's tipped to slide, is it just because of the ACL? Surely clubs have a longer term view.

 

[LoveDamoBarrett]

Adelaide's lsit manager said they are really open to trading picks 22 and 23 to move up the order. SAid they have spoken to a few clubs about it.Could we be one of them or are we deadset on Weightman?

 

[Virgin Dog]

Dare we remind everyone that the last HBFer to win a Norm Smith was a rookie lister?

Should also acknowledge that the rightful Norm Smith winner in 2017, who was robbed by the bullshit fairytale, was taken in the preseason draft and is also a half back flanker

 

[Misunderstood]

i understand that mate appreciate the convo.

 

[weltschmerz]

I think it's definitely possible that Melbourne picks up Weightman. In that case, I'd expect Pickett to be there at our pick, and he's pretty freakish too. My gut is that Melbourne will take one of those two and we'll take the other.

 

[True Dog]

Really warming to Weightman, the thought of adding another strong marking player who can kick goals is insane

Amazing to think that this thread next year will have almost zero debate about who we are taking

Think it's worth setting up a Kayo free trial to watch the draft, or will I get just as much listening to the Twomey coverage?

Going to be a boring two years between now and the 2021 draft. Lack of debate of who we should or might get, the fun of the mystery, talking about various different prospects. Instead it will just be about Jamarras highlights packages, the other NGA/FS prospects and what other teams might do. But we won't be complaining too much in the end if he lives up to the hype.

You can watch if you have Telstra Livepass subscription I think

Depending on how early bids come, we may not have much to discuss in 2021 either if we go too far into deficit.

Can't imagine how boring it must be for West Coast and Saints fans this year, knowing their picks don't come until the 3rd round

Unless we tank hard and finish last so we get Pick 1 and then Marra

I'm with Optus. Could try asking my non-footy-watching dad if I could use his Telstra details I guess.

 

[dergert]

All aboard the bergman train

Yeah if not Kemp then he's who I want

 

[CaptainMurphy]

Still keeping my Williams avatar up to make him last to 53. I've got a good track record of avatars of mine being drafted (Richards, Smith). This one is a long shot though.

If we happened to trade down he'd be a good one. 13 to two later picks to Williams and Sharp would be nice.

If I’d just picked up Tim Kelly in trade week I’m not sure I’d mind if my only draft picks were 88, 89 and 90

not if we downgrade from 13 to picks 22 and 23 (from adelaide) and take elijah taylor and Williams/Worrell. That would be my dream scenario.

 

[The Inbetweener]

After wanting Aish over Bont and Coffield over Naughton, I no longer really have an opionion on who will be best.

But one thing I know is it’s an important pick for Austin.

Last years first picks in Smith and West picked themselves. We don’t have much idea on how his other early picks in Cavarra and Vandermeer will end up.

Next year will also pick itself in Jamarra and McPherson.

Realistically we could be a few years in without knowing if Austin is a good judge or not!

 

[lachy]

With the exception of Howard, we have nailed first round draft picks for the last decade. Genuine guns. I am not sure why we would expect this year to be any different, so will wait and see whoever it is we pick, but history shows he is likely to be a gun
