We'll have a Welcome Thread for Pick 37 when it happens.

That is assuming bigfooty does not lock up and completely stop working like it has the last few years during and after the draft.

Nothing has been flagged, but yeah

 

[Punts]

, rainbow ( doubt ) , Neal bullen , Howe , Nelson , Ramsey ( if tall ) Will not get 1 right

 

[RUNVS]

I want a key defender at least 194cm.

 

[Millky95]

I think we will pick best player at 37. Hopefully its a defender

Neal-bullen will be 25-30 range, possibly earlier but very vanilla. Good steal if he slips however. How's, Ramsey and Lonie should be there. But from what I'm hearing, big moves in first round could net us a slider in the chaos

I don't. Won't be properly ready for at least 4-5 years. Unless you're thinking mature ager.

 

[RUNVS]

I would like Oscar McDonald or possibly Daniel Nielson (though Nielson is 193cm). Howe is too short for me as at best he is a 3rd tall defender and we already have a few pretty good 3rd tall defenders.

Howe has become a big bodied mid

Howe has become a big bodied mid

Which is a position we do not need filling.

 

[strauchanie59]

Key Defender/Small Forward at 37.

 

[RUNVS]

Key Defender/Small Forward at 37.

I agree with that. Those are our two greatest needs.

 

[Membling]

McCartin, Petracca and Brayshaw locked as top 3. after that will be where it gets interesting

 

[swansfan51]

We just drafted a teenage key defender last year, why another one?

 

[Heeney2Franklin]

GWS have another 3 top 10 picks?

 

[Membling]

March back at 6. Gonna get bumpy from here on in

Lever and Durdin still up for grabs

 

[Membling]

Cats pull the trigger on Nakia.

Will be a good duo with Motlop now that they lost Christensen.

 

[Punts]

Few kd left for freo

Smart move.

Laverde, Durdin, Lever, Duggan all still on table. Surprising

 

[Heeney2Franklin]

Smart move.

Is it true that Nakia only played 1 game? seems a big risk factor.

 

[Membling]

Richmond with Ellis.

Geez, they don't get list management

 

[Punts]

Freo mid
