    Resource 2024 AFL Draft discussion thread (Wed Nov 20 to Fri Nov 22)

    I do like Lalor as well, but for mine the best player in this draft will be Langford for the reasons outlined below: The only knock on Langford is his lack of pace in testing. Langford compensates for this with elite footy IQ , decision making, and game awareness, physically being able to stand...

    That goes without saying ... Keays spent 4 years on Brisbane's list, and was a part of their academy, so was under their watchful eye for 6-7 years. Brisbane had 6-7 years of data on Keays and didn't project him to be more than a depth player. Additionally, after all of this time they didn't...

    Resource 2024 AFL Draft discussion thread (Wed Nov 20 to Fri Nov 22)

    To my mind the clear standout at U18 level this year has been Langford. The only knock on him is his lack of pace in testing. Langford compensates for this with elite footy IQ , decision making, and game awareness, physically being able to stand up in the tackle and dispose of the ball to...

    Given the 2024 draft is with us next week, who do we all think the Crows should pick at Pick 4 which will most likely become Pick 5 with a bid on Levi Ashcroft? I dare say a number of people would be picking Sid Draper in a heartbeat. For me, I would personally be picking Harvey Langford; the...

    The fact Keays won a Club Champion award at the Crows who finished 15th this season, and Keays wouldn't even make Brisbane's best 22 highlights the disparity in the AFL, and just how shite the Crows list is. I am sure Keays is a great person and a great clubman who tries hard and gets the most...

    If you look at the Richmond and North Melbourne potential pick swap situation based upon the points system, Pick 2 is worth 2517 points. There is a likely bid on Levi Ashcroft between pick 1 and pick 5 which will see Richmond's pick 6 most likely devalued to pick 7 and worth 1644. Richmond's...

    Both NWM and Phillipou are good players, and best 22 players, but they are not stars of the game. Neither have been in the All Australian squad, let alone team, neither are premiership players, neither won the Rising Star award, and neither have won Brownlow Medals. They weren't even top 5 picks...

    Hamish Davis wasn't on there either ... Maybe a few names missing.

    We can place players on the inactive list to free up room for the MSD. If there are injuries over the preseason we could potentially recruit someone as part of the PSSP. Considering experience from recent years, it is fair to say that both options will most likely arise. Given the depth of this...

    Just wondering if Hugh Boxshall is going to jump up a few draft boards after his State Combine performance. To my mind he would at least be a 3rd - 4th round pick, and could understand a case being made for him being a late second pick. I actually thought that WA has some decent talent this year...

    Just wondering if anyone has heard any results from the Draft Combine this weekend? :)

    Whilst I do rate Travaglia, and do think he is worthy of a top 10 pick for the right team, I can see the argument for Langford being the number 1 pick and believe Langford has the higher ceiling. Langford is an elite mark, has a borderline elite left foot kick that can break lines, has excellent...

    If we go back to pick 15 of the 2016 draft, we could have picked Jarrod Berry instead of Jordan Gallucci ... The joys of 20/20 hindsight, but the wish could have been a reality. That 2nd rounder we traded to GWS could have been used on Tom Stewart (instead of Curtly Hampton), and the 3rd rounder...

    Just listened to Gettable with Twomey and Beveridge. Apparently Finn Maginness and Matt Owies might be gettable. Two experienced young players who fill list needs, and wouldn't cost much. Owies with ANB would release both Rankine and Rachele into the midfield. Magginess is a big bodied...

    Cromulant, I said Allen would be better than several currently listed Crows players, but did not mention particular names at that time. You are the one who mentioned Lachie Murphy, and compared Mitch Grigg to Matthew Allen, and after that I listed names. Allen was delisted back in 2019, and has...
