Adelaide AFL 2024 Midseason Draft

[Danger in Texas]

Ahh ****

 

[Mutineer]

Brisbane snuck in on us LOL

 

[Thunderstruck]

Godamnit Brisbane

 

[Crow till I die]

There you go..someone said a few days ago, imagine if we lose out on a player we want to Brisbane all for scoring an extra goal v west coast to push us just above them on %. Luke Beecken to Brisbane who we have been keen on..fcu kk

 

[Scorpus]

Did we beat West Coast by too much? Lol

 

[Mr MysteryGuest]

Hope Beecken slides to 18

Jinxed it

 

[I Lost My Keays]

Solid selection

 

[Scorpus]

We passed

 

[George CantStandYa]

So there went our player

 

[Mutineer]

Well that’s a buzzkill

Obviously Beecken was it

 

[Afcprophet]

Why not just select someone to make our sanfl side better? It would help our younger players development

 

[Bearded Clam]

Incipid club once again shoots itself in the foot…

“Yah, we smashed those west coast witches hats”.. and stuffed our midseason draft position losing out on a player we wanted in the process.

What an achievement.

Yep, I agree..surely there were some Norwood players we could have taken at the same time weakening them win win

Cause we are run by fukheads that are too smart for their own good.

We just love self sabotage.

 

[Big Cyrille]

Would Murray have been taken by anyone else? Felt the case when selected.

 

[DJ75]

LOL.
Never change AFC, with your stacked list

 

[Danger in Texas]

Yeah I joked that the WCE percentage boost might hurt us on Sunday, I didn’t think it actually would

 

[Billy_01]

Why are we so conservative. clearly every other club saw value in filling their list whats so special about us lmao

 

[jackster83]

As long as we aren't repeating the previous year's mistake of giving absolutely everyone a contract for next year.

We need to actually make some tough calls. Parnell, McHenry, maybe Borlase, etc.

 

[Mr MysteryGuest]

If st Kilda only had one pick why did we need to Murray before Beecken ?

Someone else must have been into him

 

[1990crow]

Lame

 

[Bearded Clam]

Would Murray have been taken by anyone else? Felt the case when selected.

The rumour was that the club really wanted him and told him to “pit the cue in the rack” a few weeks ago to not attract attention to himself..

So they are probably happy with grabbing him at 7..

Its fxxkn it up and missing out on the next player they wanted due to stupidity that looks to have cost.

 

[MRB37]

LOL.

We're gonna be keeping some deadwood on our list next year from the looks of it. Got about 8-9 guys I'd have on the delist pile currently, we're gonna be keeping guys just for the sake of it at this rate.

 

[MRB37]

Someone must have been into him

I would hazard a guess that there was some fair interest in him if they pulled him from playing SANFL.

Yep.. we’re fxxkn special alright!…

Are you serious? You're mad now that we played too well against West Coast? Were we meant to tank that game to move up to pick 17 in the second round of the MSD?

Toby Murray is clearly inevitable. I’d say we pick him with our first. This selection would essentially be the final nail in Himmelberg’s AFC career coffin, freeing him up to sign with GWS as a FA.

The other pick could be any number of players but I’d personally be hoping for Beecken if he’s there to add a bit of dash and skill - makes sense with Parnell to be delisted, Milera’s career up in the air, and B Smith to retire at the end of 2025.

McLennan would be a pointless selection for mine. Looks a classic “really good SANFL, not enough weapons for AFL” type to me.

I certainly wouldn’t be opposed to taking a pure ruck like Pike, but do we really think we’re taking both a fwd/ruck AND a pure ruck in the same midseason draft? I’d suggest not.

Personally I’m glad we aren’t really linked to any true midfielders - chances of hitting a quality AFL mid in a midseason draft are extraordinarily low. Target talls and outside players with X factor.

Decent chance we pass on the 2nd pick and end up with just Murray.

Very on brand. Would’ve enjoyed a Beecken pick at 7 personally.
