List Mgmt. 2016 Draft Prospects(Poll Added)

[Dav1d]

Skipos's observation from that link that no good tall AFL forwards have come from picks later than #20 was interesting.

What's this draft like for tall defenders?

not looking too great right now, but the champs is still yet to be played out
So a couple may still emerge

Skipos's observation from that link that no good tall AFL forwards have come from picks later than #20 was interesting.

What's this draft like for tall defenders?

Mostly half forward/midfield type 180-186ish players this year. Very good draft for Rucks at this early stage.

Most Tall defenders are third tall types.

3 tall forwards but one is tied to GWS.

There hasn't been a draft with multiple good ruck prospects for a while. We need one so hopefully we pick one.

Sweet, Goddard, Ladhams, Meek I think are the ones I can name off the top of my head. Know much about them Wizard17 ?

 

[Dav1d]

Goddard is an animal
The kid is built to play AFL probably close to right away, very good in the ruck contests
Haven't really seen him get the ball around the ground or take contested marks forward or deep in defense, I would hope that he shows something across the ground during the championships because he could for sure go in the first round at this stage

 

[Wizard17]

Meek and Goddard are my favorites at the moment as far as rucks go.

Meek offers more around the ground than the others. Thus he is the one who I'd pick for us.

 

[CaptainMurphy]

I only saw Ladhams in the first AIS game but he seemed to move pretty well for a big guy.

 

[Wizard17]

Maybe another in Sullivan if he gets a shot as a 19yo for SA too.

Am I getting the sense that Romensky is your 2016 McLean/Fiorini?

Romensky I'm just keeping an eye on.

Haven't decided on my favorite for this year yet.

 

[Wizard17]

Forgot a couple (almost forgot your man Karl Dav1d:

Karl Brown (CC) (193cm, 90kg) (KPF) (over age -dec born) -

16 disposal (7 ineffective), 2 goals, 4 behinds, 1 handball receive, 8 marks (4 contested), 1 tackle, 3 frees for

Ben Ronke (CC) (181cm, 75kg) (mid/fwd) (over age-dec born)-

21 disposals (11 ineffective), 2 goals, 1 behind, 5 hanball receives, 2 marks, 2 tackles

This kid seems to hit the scoreboard a fair bit and is very, very quick (2.829 20m). He is overage but was born in December so he doesn't have much age difference between him and this group.

 

[LittleG]

Romensky I'm just keeping an eye on.

Haven't decided on my favorite for this year yet.

Being a Meek fan, I thought you would say:
"Blessed are the Meek: for they shall inherit the Earth."

 

[Wizard17]

I have a few favorites at the moment though

Hugh McCluggage
Lloyd Meek
Kayle Kirby

I can't choose between them at the moment.

Dannnnnnnnnn would like a few of the names popping up on here

McCluggage was impressive in the AIS game

 

[Wizard17]

McCluggage was impressive in the AIS game

I like a few mids that aren't in the AIS and I reckon could bolt up the draft boards.

Matthew Signorello (NK) & Oliver Florent (SD) are the ones who have come flying out of the blocks it will be interesting to see whether they continue to perform.

I'll add them to my watch list. Looking forward to hearing who you finally pick as your favourite.

I'll decide eventually.

Probably around the champs after I see the other states play.

 

[Super Hans]

What kind of player is Simpkin? We aren't afraid to take a player who slides because of injury..

 

[Wizard17]

What kind of player is Simpkin? We aren't afraid to take a player who slides because of injury..

Small forward with bag of tricks and a very smart player. Would have been a top ten pick before that injury.

Still probably goes before our pick though even with the injury. Just might slide out of the top 10 or so.

 

[Dav1d]

What kind of player is Simpkin? We aren't afraid to take a player who slides because of injury..

Think Hunter & McLean, except not as good of a mark but as good or better with the ball and that's how he performs at junior level
He's an exciting & flashy player that has some good agility
How his leg break would affect this, I couldn't say.

 

[Wizard17]

I'll add them to my watch list.

My TAC list alone has about 25 names on it atm and it is only likely to grow more over the year.

Reckon I'll have a list of about 70-80 after the Div 2 and Div 1 champs.

It looks like a good draft year. Lots of players worth looking at.

I've got a pretty simple list with heights, weights and positions with about 80 on it, then a further 40 names with no info yet. Then a much shorter watch list with a few more details like TAC team etc. mainly consisting of tall forward possibilities and a few mids thrown in. Nothing too detailed though.

I generally put players on my list after they perform and try to keep it for our needs if I can.

At the moment I have 24 top age players and 3 over age players from the TAC. When I see both d1 & d2 champs I'll make a list for the other states then I'll rank them.

This is how the breakdown in numbers is looking right now:

Small Forwards - 3
Midfielders - 11
Tall Utilities - 3
Tall Defenders - 2
Tall Forwards - 3
General Defenders - 3
Rucks - 2
