[apuchar]

I saw him play a couple of times last year for the colts. He looked very outside then.

What do you think of Aiden Grace? He'd have to be a really late bloomer at 26, but he has been kicking goals in the SANFL finals last year and again to start this year. Kicked 4 against WA last week.

Grace is in terrific touch. Didn't realise he was 26.

Carr, a 191cm, 78kg forward, made his debut for the Bulldogs earlier this season and has impressed in his three games as a mobile half-forward averaging 13 disposals and five marks.

Big boi. Hope we can get him as a father son at the end of the year.

 

[Taylor]

I am not sure what the rules are on Carr. He is 20, but I cannot find his name on the nominee lists for any of the last three drafts.

So if he were to nominate for the draft it would be his first, and that might actually qualify him as a father son selection.

 

[Andy Brennan]

What about six months of Nathan Wilson as a forward, his killing it up forward for peel.

He is too fat

Something something Stewy Dew something something 2008 grand final

We're now in the wrong era for unfit footy players tho.

 

[Retzlaff]

Pretty sure he's still eligible as a F/S pick in the main draft. Nominating now where we can't match may stop that?

(no clue, I just know that if you haven't nominated for a draft previously, you maintain F/S eligibility).

The AFL has asked Ty Zantuck whether Jaden Carr should be eligible as a father/son selection at Freo. He said no

This is where I need the eye roll react.

We already were in 2008 when Dew won his team a Grand Final.

Bump.

AFL Mid-Season Draft: Top picks and draft bolters

The mid-season draft has become a regular fixture in the footy calendar, and its next instalment arrives on Wednesday. ESPN draft expert Jasper Chellappah takes a look at who each club might take.

Don't love the amount of Caleb Ernst reporting out there: in a MSD pool with seemingly a fair amount of smaller fwd half players, a tall fwd project pick who's not exactly killing it at VFL level seems like the exact opposite of what we need. I know the MSD pool in general sucks, but our small fwd group is poor enough that there has to be someone out there that can come in and immediately compete for a spot.

Hopefully there are keeping it quiet who they are after I still think winders will be the one

‘Reporting’ is a stretch when it comes to ESPN. Much like who he took over, their draft guy just summarises what other articles have already said.

Ernst only makes sense if we are ruling out Odin, in which case its probably too early to do that

I think half the appeal of Odin Jones was he's able to play ruck.

Once developed he'd be an option as KPF and a last resort as a ruck, effectively allowing us to carry one less ruck on the list.

Ernst is too small to do that IMO.

Before the National Draft this board was going crazy over Shaun Mannagh. He's played one and half games for Geelong and hasn't really looked AFL standard yet.

Reality is that every single one of these players was overlooked roughly 6-7 weeks of footy (and the pre season) ago by every single AFL club. It isn't that much footy.

Besides I don't believe depth is an issue. The only areas we lack depth is where our best 22 is poor. Adding depth players doesn't magically produce A Graders. If we recruit genuine best 22 small forwards in the next 12-24 months I'm more than comfortable the depth will suddenly look like it's there.

 

[FreoMatt]

83 games for us roughly, 130 roughly for port. (Very quick maths, but not eligible for us)

He is Matt Carrs son not Josh. Matt played 134 for us and 50 odd for Saints

Isaiah Winder has nominated for the Mid-season draft as expected.

Treacy already provides that for us though, he is fine as a 4th in line ruck

Jones would actually be an option to play as the number one ruck if all our other rucks are injured though.

Its good to have as long as he develops into a KPF option eventually too.

I don't think Treacy leading the ruck will ever be an option unless we're beyond stacked with KPF depth. Given other clubs will come for our KPF depth if they look AFL standard I can't see that happening - at least not for long anyway.

He must have played ok Saturday again peel?

32 and a couple of goals, IIRC.
