He fits a need. Good pick up.

A need ??

A need for SWEID!!!

 

[go_the_dockers]

 

[DragoDelph]

unless we trade up, I can't see Carlton skipping over him

Hopefully someone bids on ison, can get creative

 

[Joose]

An old fashioned rover.

 

[dexter_]

That was the joke

damnit

 

[freo_leo29]

Hopefully someone bids on ison, can get creative

Unless the Ison bid comes after 28 then it won't matter

TBH they probably take Fred at 28 anyway

 

[Docker82]

Pies and blues the biggest risks

Blues might not be if Ison lasts three more picks.

Collingwood have an academy kid around the 30s so might be eliminated from the equation as well.

Roos and Dogs will both love Thredgold still being on the board.

 

[Dayts]

Human meatball 2.0

 

[2big2strom]

A small forward who can tackle, pressure and loves kicking goals from 40 or 50 metres out. Yes please! Just need to start a Sonny's Snap Academy pre training and I'm sold

 

[DockerDerek]

Sweid looks really good in his highlights package.

Gets it in close, hard to tackle, decent kick, smart handballs. A cross between Reid and Dudley!

 

[lint]

Mostly played as a meatball mid but models his game on Dylan Moore

as a half forward, which is where he likely projects at AFL level. Very high workrate..had 13 tackles in a game last year! Known for repeat efforts and sheer willpower ala Schultz.

 

[Lach72]

Human meatball 2.0

That’s what I thought.

 

[Joose]

Abba the Swede.

Thats his nickname. Give him Sonny's No 10

 

[Nothing]

 

[A New Hope]

Abba the Swede.

Thats his nickname. Give him Sonny's No 10

already called it hes sweid as

 

[freo_leo29]

About a month ago I was looking at a bunch of players and thinking this draft wasn't so bad with where they were rated but then it comes to draft night and they all end up top 16 lol

So the draft was shallow it was just a weird order going around for a while


Now I think it opens up and there are some decent players left, reckon you can pick a player you'd reasonably take in the late 20s in the early 40s

Feels like 17ish-36ish are the picks in this draft where you will be underwhelmed, earlier than that and you're happy, later than that and you'll be pretty happy (relative to the pick ofc)

 

[Tony_Clifton]

Abba the Swede.

Thats his nickname. Give him Sonny's No 10

I prefer, "The Sweid"

Its cleaner and the irony is clever enough to sidestep the censors.

"The Swede" is a character from Phillip Roth's American Pastoral.

 

[freo_leo29]

10 picks in round 2 now lol

 

[fnerd]

looks pretty slow lol

might want to check your eyes

 

[freo_leo29]

Verdict on our trade down

Nairn would've been handy but it wasn't the disaster trade it looked like at the start, take that as a W

 

[freo_leo29]

might want to check your eyes

Nah I'm pretty confident he is slow haha

Looks clean though which is what you need when you are slow


Media team just throwing out buzzwords (can't blame them, they aren't doing the drafting)

 

[JunglistPosse]

Like Pat Voss?

Brilliant sir!

Our pick was the Hawthorn pick - WC did that pick swap to move up one

 

[DragoDelph]

JL: so ahh.. Wallsy? You got anymore of those Murphy Reid’s?

RW: sorry mate, fresh out. But I’ll let you try one of these Sweid’s

 

[Docker82]

Best available at our second pick as well I reckon. Just no talls.
