BigFooty Official BIGFOOTY OFFICIAL PHANTOM DRAFT

[PMBangers]

 

[Futbolista]

Who needs to match ?

Match was the wrong word. I've got NGA on the brain.

Let's say get in before Fremantle and West Coast. I think it's worth the risk. Pace is ace and he has it.

 

[Thunderstruck]

If we did this next week then we wouldn’t be able to draft cal ah chee

Oh I know, not basing it on that, just grabbing players for the sake of it without being exactly real. Wouldn't exactly be leaving a rookie spot for Welsh either but...

 

[noobermensch]

Bulldogs don't have anymore spots available. noobermensch it's up to you

I've already passed for both Melbourne and Brisbane so no more picks for me.

PMBangers with Carlton then?

 

[Obeanie1]

Very easy one MATCHED - he is so underrated.

Back to you .

How do the Eagles match?

Dont we only have 5 open list spots in the main draft?

This would be the 7th selection.

BTW your 1st three picks........the perfect start for us in this draft, l settled on those three about two weeks ago. Shanahan and Schubert would be a great duo to build a forward line around.

Sharp is just a AAA solid investment in an area of need plus leadership.

Duursma is also an obvious #1 but with massive upside.

 

[PMBangers]

Carlton will pass so its Thunderstruck with 2 picks for Adelaide, then @chris2for Hawks and Pie 4 Life will finish it off

Ah yep gotcha. Totally fair then

 

[Thunderstruck]

Pick 62 - Adelaide Zane Peucker Woodville-West Torrens 179cm

 

[Thunderstruck]

Pick 63 - Adelaide Balyn O'Brien Norwood 187cm

 

[Chris25]

Pick 64 Hawthorn - Marcus Krasnadamskis (201cm ruck)

Few other players I don’t mind as late picks or rookies - Koby Evans, Noah Roberts-Thompson and a couple of the mature aged guys in Harry Scott and Tom Blamires.

But of what’s left, feels like Krasnadamskis might be the most likely to go bolt up early. So I’ll pick him with the view that everyone will marvel at my knowledge in the future.

Was waiting to see if he was forgotten or not, great get

Pie 4 Life to take us home

Taken already at 45?

Pie 4 Life to take us home

In fitting style for this draft, Collingwood selects Koby Evans (Perth)

But in all seriousness, was next on my list of 'could improve with the right development' and probably has a fair chunk of upside considering his injury issues. Bit of a dart board throw anyway.

Draft done!

Had a look and it was Kondogiannis.

Injury free, he will be a star. Nice selection. WCE would be hoping he gets to rookie. The word is he wont.

Eagles unable to match as in this phantom they have already selected 7 players with only 5 open list spots.

Teams like Pies and Port with onky late picks will be looking at those Eagles nga's and Banfield.

They havent left open enough list spots to cover more than one bid.

Risky strategy. If I was West Coast I would be pretty keen on both Banfield and Evans. Not so sure about Williams and Walley and Ryder isn't on anyone's radar.

Yep. Very risky when some clubs dont have their 1st pick until the late 30's.

They obviously dont rate them that highly.

I just don’t get this.

If those kids aren’t rated as top 40 prospects, why should West Coast prioritise them over better kids?

I get they have come through the WC academy, but that shouldn’t make them must haves.

Draft better kids, and if those kids slip through the national draft, pick them up in the rookie draft, or re-list them as over age 19 year old academy kids, and retain drafting rights to them next year.

I think WCE want to have their cake and eat it - banking on the fact that the Vics aren't that keen on the WA boys after the championships.

But I think they are going to have to make an early move on Evans. He's too good to let slip.

 

[Futbolista]

I'll always remember the words of a couple of AFL scouts I spoke to here one day in the outer and they both said "The interstate recruiters just don't listen most of the time". "They're not interested"

Can you expand please.

Here as in WA, and interstate as in Vic recruiters?

Yep, a communication breakdown between those two scouts based in WA working for interstate based AFL clubs, particularly those recruiters in Vic. That's what they said. We can only speculate if they were "not listened too" or "not coming up with information the recruiters interstate liked".
