Has there been a single mock draft where Sheldrick makes it past the second round yet Obeanie1 ???

[JDWCE]

What was my prediction? Pick 30 >

If Im out by 5 picks I can live with that buddy!

 

[hbk2015]

Even Sam Banks at 37. Ment to be one of the best coming out of tazzie

That crap about Horne being the best u19 in 30 years is crap . He looked average against no names W A players . Dustin Martin followed by Petracca are the 2 that stood out to me in u19s . Petracca finally pulled his finger out .
side note . These bulls are what can turn a GF . Yeo was ours .

That quote was from a North recruiter. They are going to pump him up big time, they need to sell memberships.

[mattyc75]

I tend to agree. Intercept marking key defender is a long way down the list of priorities.

Lockdown key defender is higher on the priority list - and much more likely later in the draft (or into the rookie draft or even SSP).

If we select a tall (other than a ruck) then I hope it is a key forward who slides to our 2nd or 3rd pick (or we trade one of those up to get said player).

Ruck in the RD (state league) or SSP.

 

[UseR2006]

Given next years draft is already looks way more deep for KPP there's almost no reason for us to look at the talls this year, let everyone else have them so we have better chance of getting a good one next year.

Yep - good call

Yeah I reckon Diacos is better than him!

Diacos had a VFL match earlier in the year for the Pies, and I recall reading he had something ridiculous like 35 and 2 goals.

Then went back to the NAB league and had 40 and 2 goals, then a quieter game of 30 and 3 goals.

But Daicos can't be marketed as 'The first Nth Melbourne #1 pick'

Looks very doubtful that the roos make the pies pay full/fair price there.

Didn't coniglio kick 4 goals in a wafl GF ?

 

[Keys]

Didn't coniglio kick 4 goals in a wafl GF ?

And a year before he was eligible to be drafted

Norf would be better to bid on daicos first and let him have all the pressure instead of horne-francis like Adelaide did last year with Ugle-Hagen

 

[Get_The_Gaff]

And a year before he was eligible to be drafted

But he was a number 2 pick so it doesn't count

 

[ArdentEagle]

I was there with my Claremont supporting Wife. It was glorious!!!!

 

[ArdentEagle]

Probably jizz my pants for 6 weeks straight if we get Chesser at 31

Very impressive!
You'd need to change your av to jizzface too.

 

[THE A5]

Hadn’t even turned 17 at that stage too

And like Melbourne did with Nic Naitanui

 

[Obeanie1]

Johnson - balanced mid.
Chesser - attacking HB / wingman.
Banks - attacking HB / wingman.

That trio would deliver sublime footskills, lots of run and carry and all three are great leaders.

Would be a really good draft haul ......... to good to be true.

Looking at who else was there I would prefer.

Johnson 12
Sheldrick at 31
Banks 37

Chesser and Banks are very similar types.

 

[RanaNaved]

Horne-Francis is listed at 183cm on Cal Twomeys' most recent draft rankings, anyone reckon he looks a lot bigger than that? Do socks pulled up a bit make people look taller or something?

He also looks heavier than 77kgs.
