Opinion 2025 Picks 7* and 8* – who do you want?

[Scythe]

Alright, back on track. I've whipped up a quick consensus again – will add the missing ones as they're made available.

 

[Scythe]

Rosman

Holy shit, you nailed it haha

 

[markm106]

what do you mean free for our pick? We pick before them. I'm not on the same page today lol

Oh yep got confused there as they have two picks before us.

 

[I Love Lamb]

Taylor would make up for the Nairn pick in my own mind. I really think we should be getting Sharp though. If we're interested in Nairn and have no issues over his pace then the same could be said for Sharp. If not, we should be meeting with Sharp over the next 2 days and pressure the bombers to take Sharp. Either way, a bit more action and games Lamby.

Sharp will be gone by our pick I feel. Dons will take him along with Farrow.

I would prefer Dove or Grlj over Nairn still, even if we get Taylor.

Use GC1 for Nairn if we can otherwise keep it.

A UFO from Independence Day will arrive.

 

[mrmonkey]

They know we don't want Sharp, so they can take other players before our picks and know Sharp will still be there at pick 9. The joker in the pack is us threatening to trade our pick with the Hawks who would take Sharp.

Seems very childish from essendon, just take sharp with one of their first 2 picks they have before us.

I will be happening

For what it's worth Nairn is a late birthday, 15th of October

... better late than never DoW.

 

[SugarHealey]

If I whipped up a quick Dees board mock draft where posters nominate a team to pick for, would anybody be interested? Would probably need to get it rolling today/tomorrow to ensure it's completed in time for Wednesday.

better this year... to just do a 'pin-the-tail' on any donkey... Scy.

 

[I Love Lamb]

Wonder if our Nairn stance changes if Taylor drops through or if we would be comfortable going 2 mid sized blokes.

This is a great point.

So many unanswered questions.

Not really, just smart drafting and trading by them. Why take a player earlier than you have to?

 

[booshboy]

Twomey has us taking Farrow & Nairn

 

[TheBoss]

Ballsy to go for two interstate kids during a rebuild before Tassie compromises the draft (even more...)

I am sure they will both be feeling homesick if they start showing promise and the club is going nowhere.

 

[danster168]

So a reach with a funny kick and a flight risk. what could go wrong lol.

Oh well, more dealings with Freo it seems.

 

[Crusty Demon]

What's the knock on Grijl besides the f*d spelling of his name? I feel Grijl and Pickett would add speed.

I cooled on him after watching a bit more, he gets a bit out of control Jayden Hunt style imo.

So Headless Chook style.

 

[Proper Gander]

So Headless Chook style.

I want to know what Headless thinks about this

I heartily endorse this event or product.

I thought he looked OK, I would be happy with him. However as you pointed out speed isn't everything, no point adding speed if you end up with a Jayden Hunt Type or Sam Blease if you want to go back further.

Seems to be a better decision maker close in than Jayden Hunt for mine. Better lateral movement to get out of trouble as well.

That’s not how you spell Caleb Windsor.

I actually thought Grlj resembled Christian Moraes a fair bit, but **** I’m happy to take a headless chook after a decade of the 3 plodders.

Yeah I'm not comparing him directly, just saying he can get out of control at times. I think he could be alright but don't think he's worth a top 10 pick.
