Meh, Goddard is overrated. Lumbers around like a ruckman and apparently hasn't done all that good at VFL level, I wouldn't mind Blakely though.I felt the same way about that draft.
Goddard at 19, quality young key defender because we desperately needed one.
Blakely at 27, didn't think he would last this long but went later. Was incredibly sharp around the clearances, released other players into space.
I'm not sure l will ever get over this draft. Ballsed up an excellent draft. Every time l watch freo with Blakely it grates on me.
Last years selections were excellent and shows we have moved forward.

No doubt. I am not loving the current favourites at the moment (as a desktop recruiter) and reckon there will be a lot of bolters this year. Someone like Petrucelli could easily come and pass the current favourites.They are still kids and let`s face it they are not robots........give em time!!!
We basically traded two metre Peter for KJ and Boekhorst. Dear oh dearMeh, Goddard is overrated. Lumbers around like a ruckman and apparently hasn't done all that good at VFL level, I wouldn't mind Blakely though.
The real mess up in all that to me is the decision in the first place to trade down pick 7.
Of the three you've named, only Martin really gives genuine (and consistent) outside run. Darcy Fogarty would be the guy.Hope we target a big bodied mid with athleticism. I know they aren't exactly a dime a dozen, but an Ollie Wines/Pepper-Powell/Martin type who is a big body that can also run outside would be ideal.
Not all of them, they just don't perfectly suit our needs, which is a different thing. Luke Davies-Uniacke is probably the closest match for us but it depends what pick we end up with.It will be interest to see how the champs go because at the moment all of the top picks seem to have flaws.
I reckon you're right - too early to take with our first but unlikely to be around for our 2nd - not that we currently have one. I reckon at this early stage Knightmare has him pegged around the right mark
Without the benefit being able to watch live U18 games I went back and watched last years U17 allstars match held on GF day and he dominated - if I had to equate him to current AFL players, he actually moved and reminded me of Gresham - finding the pill at U18 level is certainly not one of his issues, may be more of a fwd mid at next level rather than mid or mid fwd but time will tell

None that I can find.Any footage of him
I'll be trying to get to the WA games. The VIC country one especially.Yeah, I'm keen to go also.
Punt road game looks like a good start.
Same thing could have been said about Cripps.Said this in another thread but I haven't been overly impressed by Fogarty, the feeling that I get is that he's able to dominate because he's so much bigger than his peers. Looks like Tom Hawkins would if he played in midfield.
