List Mgmt. 2014 Draft Discussion

[Dav1d]

In saying what I did about Cunico his kicking style looks good but his decision making is not very good from what I've seen makes some bad mistakes sometimes. Weller yes I'd like him but unless this trade down pick you are talking about is before GC's we won't be able to get him.

I think Cunico should be rookied

doesn't win the contested ball to be honest, think that would scare a lot of clubs off

 

[Zgope1]

I believe Sam Durdin West Adelaide, should be our pick at 5. He ticks every box for our needs, 197 cm key position player, that plays at both ends of the ground.

Heard anything bp?

 

[Wizard17]

Agreed would prefer someone like McLean in the main draft over Cunico to be honest has more tricks and is a very good user of the ball

What did you think of Cavka?

I've heard good things about Wilkinson
no invite to the combine though he is supposed to have like a 17 beep test or something insane for a player that age

 

[Wizard17]

He has good endurance and kicks goals from the midfield but his field kicking is atrocious really need to work on his kicking. He might draw the attention of a club lacking decent midfielders like StKilda or Melbourne in the ND but it will be at 3rd or 4th round if any. Very strong rookie chance. Think there are some players that will go before him that haven't been seen in many Phantoms so far.

Wilkinson is an underager I think so that might be the reason he didn't get an invite.

pretty certain he is eligible
think I saw Brett Anderson write about him earlier and I think hes supposed to use it quite well
but still nothing too special, more or less a capable player and you still need those

 

[Wizard17]

Thinking of someone elseband you are right he is part of this years draft. Probably will miss out if he isn't in the combine list

I was told on Friday, he looks like falling our way, we are very keen, huge upside, great kid with very strong work ethic, same source who told me, that we would differently draft Bontempelli.

 

[Wizard17]

Would love Durdin. Hasn't shown everything he is capable of doing because of an injury he had earlier in the year but he has huge potential.

Player comparison: Jake Carlisle

Cordy going at a very tidy DE% for someone who played as a KPD

Your DE% is going to be high if you kick it 20m sideways most of the time.

 

[goodcop badcop]

Would mind Cunico but his skills are not the same as some of the fwd/mids that are going to be later in the draft not that his skill set is bad it is just average. Think the Saints will go with him at their third but if they don't I guess we could go for him.

Atm I have Wright/Durdin, Viojo-Rainbow, Menadue, Toby McLean and Cordy. This is before any trade downs or getting players like Jaksch in trade. All are either tall or add speed, skills, goal kicking or xfactor all what we need and there isn't really any reaching.

This would be a good draft. I'm not sure about Jaksch, he's a bit similar to Roberts. Well maybe he has more potential up forward, I dunno. What do you think he would cost?

By the way, I think we might have to take Foster in the main draft. His end to the year has been hard to ignore.

That's a fair call. Could probably do with a guy like Cunico for the rookie draft anyway and maybe grab a ruck as well.

That's what I want to hear! I love him. A blue chip kpp. Appreciate the info bp

 

[Wizard17]

Jakschs would cost a second rounder. Would be worth it if we lost Higgins we'd still have a second rounder if we got Jakschs and help with our KPP depth.

Paige Cardona seems to think that Cordy and Foster will be around the fourth round hopefully they are because it will keep us in the first three rounds of this draft which suit our needs quite well.

Where do you see him playing his best footy if we got him Zgope? I know most people like him as a defender but I'd really want us to develop him as a forward to start off with. Like him a lot though.

I would not be surprised if no one bid on Foster, but I do think we should take him in the main draft in case some other block head steals him from us. Reason being he's not a forward that makes things happen, he needs to be fed the ball for him to have an impact. Calder have a gun midfield, so he was always going to do well.

 

[Wizard17]

Just a reminder, no Paddy Mccartin or Darcy Parish for the Falcons while Taylor Joyce still unable to break into the Stingrays squad.

If we nominate Foster as a Father/Son selection we must take him in the main Draft - we won't have a choice even if no-one places a bid.

If no team bids for Foster on the day that Father/Son selections are deal with (i.e. the Monday before the start of Trade Week) we would be obliged to select him with our last pick in the Draft.

Sorry that's what I meant. Even if no one bids on him in the main draft, we should just take him rather then risk leaving him till the rookie draft.

The moment we nominate Cordy and Foster as Father/Son selections we lose the option of selecting them in the Rookie Draft.
