List Mgmt. 2017 draft thread

[Seymour Skinner]

Surely that Stephensen boy won't slide all the way to us.
Would be ridiculous if Twomey's phantom was anywhere near what we actually get.

I'm hopeful we can get Brander, the young GWS lads that I know are a massive wrap for him, we're flat when they lost him and Spargo etc due to the zoning rulings changing.

 

[Charlie Pannam]

Jacob Hopper was drafted early with an exsiting heart problem, and has played good football. Maybe Stephensons issues are more serious but medical procedures are so good these days that as long as it's not extremely serious I'd be snapping him up if available

 

[DoItForCaptBlood]

Hoping we can see one of Coffield/Brander/Balta get to us. Watched Balta highlights ( can be be misleading these packages obviously), but like the look of him. Would take him if assuming the other 2 are gone before 17 and Naish is also not bid on. Any other key def/forw that are likely to be available after 16 and ahead of Balta in rankings?

Ballard/Taylor better?

17- Stephenson
20- Brander
25- Hayes
27- Naish
So this happens november 24th, then a shit load of new tiger babies will be conceived 9 months from this date.

What's so good about this Stephenson guy?

What's so good about this Stephenson guy?

Been a top 5 prospect all year.

 

[Toadvine]

What's so good about this Stephenson guy?

Super quick, goal kicking wingman. Had 30 touches and kicked 5 in a game at the championships this year.


Can play forward and probably has the most x-factor in the draft after Rayner.

17- Stephenson

My sisters birthday Friday. Screw getting her a present. Give me this as mine.

 

[Grockadoc]

I could see Hayes being a cross between a Peter Wright and a Grundy.

I would love to get Brander and 20 and Hayes at 25.

Both were top 10 and top 5 picks at various stages through this year.

Throw in a slider at 17 and Naish after 25 and we could very well have one of our beat drafts ever.

Champion Data have him ranked #2 in the draft.

Zero chance of happening

More of a chance Groupie returning as Groupie.

Not cool man.

Second incest crack from Stengle26 in this thread. Maybe a little Ted Cruz situation here

 

[SA_Tiger11]

Cannot see us getting Stephenson at all. I'd be stoked with;

Brander @ 17
Hayes @ 20
Constable/Balta @ 25

Naish bid to come after that.

 

[GoTigers2015]

Twomey has us

17- Stephenson
20- Brander
25- Hayes
27- Naish

Can we sign for that now?

 

[SA_Tiger11]

Just have this feeling though we are going to get a slider at #17 (not Stephenson) and jag Brander at #20

I reckon Higgins could slide to pick 17. I'd take him for sure.

 

[GoTigers2015]

Twoomey is a massive flog. Hope he is right though

He is generally has been pretty accurate with the first round selections in his final PDs. Stephenson and Brander with no bid on Naish until after 25 would be a massive result.

Yeah if Brander is there at 17 I would probably take the risk that he will still be there at 20 given Brisbane and GC pick at 18/19 and don't have a need for a KPP and might be hesitant on taking a Victorian who they may or may not have done enough research on in terms of potential homesickness.

Spot on. If Higgins, Richards or L Fogarty are still there, take the best available I reckon.

Brander has made it known he wants to play for a big club, so should scare off the Queensland clubs.

Brander loomed as potential Pick 1. Now he could slide as far into the second round, despite being the definition of a football swingman. Brander declared last month he’d love to go to a “big club”, so Richmond — which could do with more talls — at Pick 17 or 20 might be a perfect fit.

 

[Stevi_Tigers]

If Stevenson is there we have to take him imo

If we get who Twomey says we bent the draft over

Would rather pick a player who would have more of an immediate impact

I disagree as far as a ruckman's concerned. For a fwd we will need chop outs next year, but for the ruck we'll have nank still firing with hammer and soldo as cover. I'd rather we didn't just pick the ruck who'd have the biggest impact in the next couple years over a guy that will probably overtake him in a few years and has the potential to be special

 

[Lsta062]

What's so good about this Stephenson guy?

Him and Brander were at a stage touted as possible no. 1 picks if I read correctly.

A no to Bucky's list, but a solid yes to Twomey's list for me. Would be great with all these sliders falling to us.
