List Mgmt. 2017 Draft Prospects

[Gollo]

That's assuming Dal rates Cerra/Coffield higher than others who might be available. I get the appeal but who knows what the master has in mind.

True, but I would be shaken to the core if we passed on one of those two guys. Just my personal opinion, but I would have both in my top four prospects in the whole pool. I trust Dalrymple's judgement, but I would be utterly shocked for a short time.

And its funny that this season is the only one I can remember where nearly everyone wanted the same player.

In 2012 a lot of people wanted Toumpas, JMac said in an article we wanted Toumpas as well. So we did dodge a big bullet there because Toumpas at junior level was a gun, Aish to.

 

[olimauldon]

What kind of player is Buku Khamis?

 

[Pugz89]

What kind of player is Buku Khamis?

Listed as 188cm, so probably ends up around the 191cm or so mark and can play both ends from all account.

 

[Wizard17]

What kind of player is Buku Khamis?

Tall athletic flanker with a long kick.

 

[Wizard17]

Wasn't really watching Landt in the Champs, can't recall any vision of him, but he sounds like a really good prospect. Lightning pace and, apparently, excellent kicking sounds exciting to me.

Needs to get the ball a bit more often but with his speed, endurance and kicking skills he is one that I like late. Watched a few Calder games earlier in the year and he was a standout amongst his team. If he can be developed to get 20ish touches a game at AFL level he will be a very good player.

I remember being filthy that we drafted Macrae in 2012, although I didn't follow the draft whatsoever, just from reports close to draft time I was pretty unconvinced. Macrae is now my absolute favourite at our club now, just going to show how my opinion can be quite flawed! Still, Cerra and Coffield are my two favourites out of this draft and I'm just praying we can snag one of them.

Can he football tho

Yes he can.

 

[doggies ftw]

Yes he can.

Beautiful. What range is he looking like early?

 

[Dav1d]

Beautiful. What range is he looking like early?

Bit early but right now, somewhere in that top 30.

 

[Pugz89]

Given it is Sam, it is a pretty safe bet you can back this in.

 

[Wizard17]

Beautiful. What range is he looking like early?

Around the top 30 at this stage. Very early stage though so he could bolt up or slide down.

 

[Dav1d]

Given it is Sam, it is a pretty safe bet you can back this in.

 

[Wizard17]

He is not that bad of a player and I'd say Richmond are a 99.9% chance of matching any bid we make on Naish.

They probably do and we probably are just doing our due dilligence checking out players closely.

 

[Pugz89]

Hypothetically, is Brander a type we'd want? What sort of forward is he?

He's pretty well rounded but he hasn't had many performances which suggest he will find it easy at the next level. Probably a similar situation to what happened with Kristian Jaksch, but I'd rate Brander higher at the same age.

So given our need for forwards, would he justify a top 10 pick or would we look at someone else? Someone who seems to have a fair idea on what clubs are doing seems to think he may slide down the draft a bit.

Personally I have always preferred Allen but he might be a bit high for our current pick and be gone by our next.

I think if Brander showed a stronger game one on one he would be more of a lock for top 10. I don't expect we'll take him anyway.

 

[goodcop badcop]

We've met with Jordan Houlihan.

 

[Wizard17]

We've met with Jordan Houlihan.

YES

 

[Dannnnnnnnnn]

We've met with Jordan Houlihan.

Any info on him?

 

[Wizard17]

Any info on him?

Mid sized marking forward. Similar to Hayward from last year but needs a bit of work on his ground level game. Strength overhead is remarkable.
