Seen Wilmot before ? Not really what we need early picks either but a good player

Yep ,seen plenty of him, very good running back but we're pretty well covered there unless we jettison a couple.

 

[Mutineer]

Fair enough but I wouldn’t draft Conway with our earlier picks of at all

Neither would I but he'd be a steal mid - late draft with his upside factored in.

 

[Danger in Texas]

He was good . How tall is he ?

Is Knevitt that tall, I saw him play live earlier in the year at Wendourie and didn't look that tall standing alongside Ben Hobbs and Marcus Herbert who had the measure of the Falcons mids that day, certainly not as tall as Goater to my eye anyhow.

193cm apparently, looked quite big (but light) to me out there

That really does surprise me though the Falcons this year have been playing a lot of 19 year olds compared to other NAB League teams.

Pity we're over stocked with "average " tall defenders cos Gibcus is looking more and more like a supreme talent.

 

[Mutineer]

Anyone else watching Metro vs County?

Daicos already racking them up. Hobbs and Goater impressive in the middle for each of their sides, as well as MacDonald

Is Daicos really that damaging through the midfield though, demands the ball but not all that damaging?
I might be wrong but I reckon at AFL level he'll play similar to his old man up forward because there'is absolutely no doubt he's inherited his old man's footy smarts in traffic.

He definitely knows how to rack up the ball, gets in the right places to receive it etc. Accurate and neat kick but I agree that he isn’t overly damaging

Probably works well as the link-up midfielder between inside and outside at the next level, his agility and awareness is superb. Would fit that role quite well

Zach Merrett is good comparison

Hypothetical question and for the record I would not do it because a bird in the hand speaks louder than 2 in the bush, but it appears GC pick 5 is on the table for a good player. If they came knocking for example for say Sholl or Shoenberg, would anyone actually consider that

Without hesitation.

Won't be for those two though

Yes... but I think they're looking for a good KPF, not midfielders. I'd happily put Fog/Billy/Berg on the table, but none of those are worth anything remotely close to pick #5. Even in Mego Red's PlayStation trading world, we probably wouldn't get pick #5 for them as a package deal. TT is definitely off the table.

Nobody's giving pick 5 for either of those lads, not even the GCS's, they'll want a highly proven mid or KPP for that kind of pick and more than likely a mature aged experienced player..

GC throwing some bait out to Geelong, Collingwood, Melb and WB with that pick 5 thing.

 

[Peter Doherty]

GC want a mature aged player for pick 5. Not sure if there is anyone out there who demands that pick who would be mature and willing to go there.

Might have to be pick 5 for a player and late first. Then they still have 3x firsts to trade out again if they want.

 

[Crow_68]

Not much use to Collingwood/Bulldogs, both with F/S likely to go top 4.

might have soured the Suns on any potential Crows' recruits

they can have keays if they like lol.

 

[Brett Cummings]

@Danger in Texas

keays for pick 5 man. you'd take it and run.

Oh of course you’d take that. Not a chance in hell of happening though

Assumed you were just Keays-bashing haha

 

[MRB37]

If they didn't know what they were getting then they weren't paying attention. He's a good player in a good side, but not one who shines in a mediocre or worse team.

I think the Crows' performance tonight would have put all 17 other clubs off any potential Crows recruits. All those years of continually getting our players picked off by other clubs, but now we've finally fixed that problem, at least.

Any reason for Hugh Jackson's form drop off the last couple of weeks not finding the footy as prolifically?

Yeah we have nailed the player retention strategy.

I’ve not seen either of his last 2 games personally but if I had to put 2 + 2 together I might come up with his side being obliterated last week against Westies. Now the thing about that was Westies had midfield guns Kobe Ryan and Tyson Coe back from Sacred Heart. Those 2 did a number on the North midfield which may have knocked him a bit.

This week he maybe lost some confidence from last week? Little Maxy Blacker has also returned for North from St Peters and got a ton of it today, so maybe took some midfield play away from Hugh? No Linke or Dudley for Centrals though with their midfield anchored by an U16. Should have done a bit better I think. See how he goes next week. No injury that I’ve heard of.

On another note have you noticed Zac Becker at Sturt - killed it in reserves today. Probably not a need for Crows but must be rising on draft boards.

 

[Golumless]

Mutineer, who are the key forwards in this draft worth remembering, especially 2nd round onwards?
