Is Nath Murphy anywhere near the same category? Know a draft watcher from outside BF who thinks he could be the 2017 bolter.
I liked what I saw a couple of months ago but I have since stopped paying attention to this years crop. Coffield looks like exactly what we need.

Ed Richards is a better kick than him and wins his own footy.
The one thing I saw of O'Brien was he has decent acceleration. Is Richards similar? If O'Brien could add a harder edge, could see him breaking away from packs more.
 
Still really want a genuine burst mid who busts packs open with his pace. Who would we be hoping to slide that would offer that?

Coffields highlights are nice, love his willingness to pull the trigger quickly on difficult kicks.

I absolutely think he is. He is a longer kick then any of those mentioned as well, he can break the lines with his long kicking. That's his X-factor.

I'm a bit up in the air on whether we should take him though. I would've liked to see him play more through the midfield to be completely sold on him. His work through traffic is very good, so he certainly has the potential to play through the midfield. His straight line speed may be a bit of a concern, but he may be ok because he is quite a smart and clean footballer.

I personally don't think so, don't see anything special in Murphy's kicking, or any of his other traits by the same token, but there are differing opinions on this thread. Think CaptainMurphy (?, maybe GCBC) is very keen on him.
 
Wizard17 You're our draft expert, yes? I haven't followed this year's crop at all.

Do you think we should reconsider Crameri with our 2nd pick, assuming that we have to delist him, as a safeguard now that stringer is gone?

I wouldn't say very keen, he's someone I'd consider at pick 16 only. There's others I'd prefer.

I'm a lot more bullish on Bonar and Richards. Both are highly talented, a very good fit for our team and I'm more confident of those two making it. I would very strongly consider those two at pick 9.

What's the chance Jaidyn Stephenson slides to us?

Looking at highlights would be sooooo happy if he slides to us.
 
Hypothetically, where would Lewis Young go in this draft ? At the time some experts we're sceptical of the dogs picking such a young KPP and I could be wrong but was he a chance to miss getting drafted because of his age ?
I'd go as far as saying top 5.

He would not have developed as much this year in the SANFL as he did in a full time elite environment at the Dogs. May have gone high ish but the player drafted at this draft would be different to the current player.

Fair enough. Do you know if he could've missed getting picked up last year ?
