List Mgmt. 2026 AFL Draft

[fargothegreat]

Had a Richmond VFL player come into work the other day who I won't name just in case I may get him into trouble. After I recognised who he was, we started talking about footy and about the draft. He mentioned to me that the tigers are looking to draft Harry Scott at pick 88 or the Rookie draft if he is available.

So it looks like the tigers are genuinely keen on Scott, but I'm not sure if we have a senior list spot available at pick 88 for him? I assume a rookie selection would be the other option.

We'll have a spot available for pick 88 if Kellaway gets a bid before 38, or not at all.

Why?

Because it would add to our growing inside mid collection.

He's not just an inside mid though. He played wing a fair bit this year....

But it’s his move into inside mid that’s made him a draft prospect? He only cracked 20 touches once as a wing.

Just rounding out his game. Plus hes a good mark and kicks goals. Fast.

Also wing is typically a fairly fruitless role in our system, especially at VFL level.

Sam Durham mkII. Im telling ya

I really hope we give Harry Scott a Rookie spot

Kids got tools to be a player

 

[Moonatic77]

Hope we dont call out Duursma's name any of our picks. If he's available at our first and Ess or Melb come knocking then all the better, especially Melb

 

[Tigers Time]

Didn’t know Duursma and Harry Scott were in next years draft

I do like the look of Neo though

We could want for Harry Scott to have a full season to replicate his form in the second half of this year before we try and draft him.

Assuming no cochrane and walker available who does everyone like?

Williams for me.
Pace out of the middle.

SA clubs can't match metropolitan kids though. Did that rule change or did he move house?

 

[Buddy Tambling]

Who will essendon take pick 1 now?

According to Twomeys article the Power can match a bid for Dougie whenever it comes

 

[Calcium Man]

Good for Dougie, if not for the nga and the fact his father played afl footy I’m not sure he would have ever discovered the sport exists and been lost to cricket or soccer

 

[Ctl]

Power will struggle to match unless they finish bottom 3 or trade butters

 

[Ctl]

Arki Butler was always the best player in the 2026 draft anyway

 

[Coach_Required]

Carlton will be happy that another player has entered the pick 1 bid market.

 

[SMILLIE]

What’s the ****ing point

 

[SMILLIE]

Arki Butler was always the best player in the 2026 draft anyway

Hope he’s a metro mummy’s boy like Sheezel was and a lot of those Sandy boys.

 

[Coach_Required]

We need to ask the AFL for some compensation, thats 2 years in a row now our 1st picks will get pushed down the order because of these rules.

Not good enough

We dont need any more talls anyway
