Spoiler: 2024 Draft Picks

 

[FootySmartSimpson]

For teams needing mids, it seems like there are some pretty defined tiers in the top 25 picks.

If I was needing to rebuild a midfield from the ashes of a three flag blaze of glory, I would want one of the better mids to go alongside the prized number 1.

This is why I don’t get how Smith isn’t their number 1 choice: lock down your 30 possession high IQ extractor for 15 years.

From there you trade up to get a mid with x-factor like Lalor or FOS who both have question marks but could eventually both carry a team to success.

The mids start falling away pretty quickly at 6,10+11. You are looking at converting an Allen (WA) or Reid or an Travaglia into an AFL midfielder.

Anyway, let’s just pick one of Langford, FOS or Smith to complete our midfield.

 

[FootySmartSimpson]

Chom?
McDonald isnt best 23

Chom forward.
McDonald will have at least until the bye.

 

[Wonderdog]

Ash Johnson DFA from Collingwood. Would instantly be our second best tall forward and comes free.

 

[Disco Dew]

Like what? No, really!

Zero come to mind.

 

[hotchilli]

Pretty clear cut, Luke Parker is the most experienced, respected and best leader at the club. Let him have it for two years while sheez and G.W learn the rope's.

Every chance he’s going to the most influential leader on the list but that doesn’t mean he wants the extras that come with being captain at this stage of his career.

Could just take him with our rookie pick which will be before the pies

injury worries?

North Melbourne: No collection of players has a bigger few months ahead of them - AFL Daily

Michael Whiting and Damian Barrett bring you all the latest footy news on AFL Daily. North Melbourne is under review as we lead into the 2025 pre-season. Cam Zurhaar committed long-term to the Roos, it's on him to lead the way for the next generation of stars coming through. The acquisitions...

We need to pack up the club immediately. Mr Magoo (Damo) has provided his feedback and the glass is half empty, the sky is about to fall in and the sword of Damocles is about to drop.

The only thing I got out of it was the we should be aiming for 6-8 wins in 2025.

He just comes off as a very disgruntled and salty north fan tbh, there are many like him that binned the club after we disgracefully sacked boomer, dish and spud.

The good bye?

 

[GS WARRIORS]

Cool, we'll stick with Pick 2, Ralphy.

Fine we take FOS then. That's the best scenario anyway.

 

[Balardong]

Maybe we could have people scouting such leagues.

Incorrect. 2023 was the first year Humphries nominated for the AFL draft because he was focusing on his anthropology studies

 

[Event Horizon]

Exactly.

FOS fits beautifully in our mix imo.

in fact, im now hoping for this outcome, as Richmonds board have basically cemented him into their best 22 and have been fobbing over him for the last 4 weeks.

The attention has now turned to Lalor and Smillie.

Would would certainly be an......interesting... combination to go with.


In FOS we'd land our version of Josh Kelly in the end. Even if he's not the absolute best player in this draft, he absolutely suits what our midfield lacks. Gut running, exquisite foot skills, outside class, versatility to move mid, back, forward.

In fact, I could see him playing half back next year in the same apprenticeship as Sheezel and McKercher.

We can afford the risk on him.

Apparently if we do keep pick 2, we are set on Sid Draper, not FOS

The evolution of societies forced to shift from tax payer backed vehicle manufacturing to stadium building and government offices pork barreling? Fitting.

Draper looks like such a gun in the making.

Has anyone seen Nostra and Rawlings in the same room?

Might be a chance we think FOS goes at 1 but either way if we’re going one of these two guys our midfield will be one of legend.

Starts googling sid draper highlights

 

[Garibaldi82]

A kid from South Adelaide who has already said he wants to play for the crows.
Surely we don't go risk it again.

He denied he wouldn't play for the crows. A bit different.

Sid - The Squid

Draper - Velvet

Ok, I’m sold.



I will now do the standard BF thing and base my strong draft preferences on 3 minute videos and draft profiles.
