List Mgmt. 2017 Draft - Pick 10 - Poll Added

[1981]

Yes Higgins for me.
Or Fogarty or Stephenson if they slide.

Not sold on Bradshaw. Plays like his bro and as much as I admire them both I think they both lack pace and a touch of class. More tough workhorse types. I think we can do better.

Coffield looks good. Like him. Big lad, big strides, penetrating kick.

Gonna be interesting, doesn't look a standout top ten by any means IMO.

Can you look up the Combine results for Brayshaw and perhaps post again?

Alright I admit it, I really haven't been paying attention, and know very little about the above players (I just did a quick bit of last-minute research.)
So I'm going entirely on who has the coolest name.

So for mine it would have to be either Constable or Bonar as being the most fun to cheer out at matches.

 

[BIGGUS 64]

Don't Constable me. Do you know how fast you were going?

I'll sing you a song and it won't take long...

Those stats don't measure class.

 

[Jimmae]

Those stats don't measure class.

Yup, but he plays faster than his brother.

 

[F_therest]

Higgins strikes me as the type who could come on in a rush, in a similar way to which Zorko did at the Lions.

If he is there at 10 & you let him slip past, you may end up kicking yourself over & over again.

Does he play like Zorko?

For all those worried about height he's about 3cm taller than Zorko and being 18 may still grown a little bit more?

 

[GapInIkonPark]

Top 10 in goalkicking test.

 

[1981]

Yup, but he plays faster than his brother.

And David Clark was quick and how good was he??

There's testing pace and then there's real footy pace. Surely you guys know that. You've watched plenty of football right??

Look we all use different approaches to rating prospects. I look for class and tricks that will set a player apart at senior level. Brayshaw to my eye looks like a plodder.

That's my view.

If you don't like it then move on.

Angus Brayshaw at Melbourne has both class AND is a tough workhorse. It's why he went pick 3.
His kicking is elite and is good on both sides.

 

[1981]

Maybe you should just use stats to judge a player, seems to be how you're doing it.

Really? Looks like a plodder to me albeit a competitive one.

 

[1981]

Reckon the Brayshaws may go the way of the Crouchs.

The older brother being rated higher early on, but the young one becoming the better player.

Well the Crouch brothers were great when it counted weren't they.

 

[1981]

Gee seems a few posters are going to be upset if SOS doesn't get Brayshaw

 

[Neadsy83]

It'll be constable at 10. Lock it in. Dow or Rayner at 3.

Good man, I will be stoked with that outcome.

How do you know Brayshaw doesn’t possess class?

 

[Blue_Fusion]

We can't keep going after 190cm + mids.

Higgins' height does not concern me. Buckenara rates him as the 4th best player in the draft:

http://www.heraldsun.com.au/sport/a...t/news-story/195a8609ff40acb6e2277a69f0e27117

He also has Dow at #15...

If we can end up with Cerra + Dow that would be a huge win! He says they both play like Dangerfield, we'd only need one of them to turn out similar to him...

Anyone think Dow will realistically slide to #10?

 

[bluebrew]

Don't Constable me. Do you know how fast you were going?

Yep Surprised you caught up actually.

 

[Jimmae]

He won't be there, because he's not a plodder. I watched him the in TAC finals and the champs, and I look for the same points of difference as you.

His points of difference are his athleticism, work rate and composure.

This is from the Grand Final. Don't think it was their fault that Adelaide lost. Do you?

Funny that you're telling others that they'll be upset, when it seems that you may have a little shit on the liver.

Just because they're namesd does not mean they were good. Only Cameron was any good.

 

[GapInIkonPark]

In the Grand Final. Was injured early, battled on, not a great impact. Was very good in the Prelim the week before.

 

[SHOWEY]

I would take Miles in the middle with Cripps and Kennedy and our outside runners to compliment, Murphy to the forward line

 

[Blue_Fusion]

So tell me, how do we get onto the subject of Adelaide's best players on grand final day in the pick #10 thread?

[Crippa#9]

I reckon Darcy Fogarty is a star and wouldn't be opposed if we took him at #3. If we get him at #10 he'd be a steal. Great skills, hands and reads the play as good as any kid in the draft.
Endurance is a concern but feel he could make an outstanding lead up forward in time e.g Pavlich.
