Draft Review 2017 - Revisit the 2017 AFL draft

[MattPalf]

Just finished up our 'Class of 2017' Series on Footy Prophet. Some serious talent in the draft pool this year, especially forward.

Who had a good night and who had a bad night?

Freo absolutely nailed it, you should read our board.

 

[The Joker]

You wouldn't think it down on the Eagles board but I think they were the big winners!!!

 

[Pali23]

Anyone who picked a player late in the draft that was supposed to go lower according to random Bigfooty posters.

 

[Heaps of fun]

I'd like to give a huge thank you to the Fremantle Football Club.

 

[jakefooty23]

Port absolutely killed it. Getting Sam Hayes and Joel Garner with picks after 40 is crazy good.

I'd like to give a huge thank you to the Fremantle Football Club.

Are you cerraious?

I was surprised with the Swans picking Ling but it seems we really targeted running halfbacks who are good kicks and decision makers as we got Stoddard who is the same as well.

We also got McCartin who looks promising, and he also has to be the youngest player in the draft as he doesn't turn 18 for another 5 weeks. Probably has another few centimetres in growth left in him.

I am sure the Swans won't win in this thread, but I am moderately happy with how our draft went as the Swans clearly drafted for needs in all our picks this year.

Fogarty at 12...... enough said

 

[hippyhippy]

Fogerty at 12!!! At least he won't be going home.

Few people I talk to in Club land didn’t have LDU in top 5. One of those bigfooty things. Freo will be wrapped with Cerra and Brayshaw.

Freo did really well Brayshaw is probably the safest bet in the draft.

 

[Wild Bill]

Really happy with LDU. Beating Bris in the last round now stands for SFA. I would have been happy with him at 1. Our next 2 picks were Meh but Hartung will add much needed pace. After LDU the rest of the draft could not have dampened my high.

 

[Bigtrev41]

Very Happy with our first two picks - will allow Fyfe to go forward sooner rather than later. Bit flat we didn't go after a decent KPB, Johnson is done and Hamling needs support, Logue is a third tall, there's a gap we should have drafted for.

Interesting draft for West Coast - looks like they don't think they're any chance of winning a flag any time soon and went hard at refreshing their spine. Good picks with their first two - shocker with the 3rd and then bought it home well with Ainsworth and Petruccelle.

Was humorous to see GCS swipe Wil Powell from the Coasters, they did their best to hide him this year. Hats off to GCS recruiters.

 

[Engimal v3]

Thank you Fremantle! Brayshaw is a gun, but really didn't expect LDU to drop to us. Very happy.

Brander, Allen and Ryan. Surely you're happy dude, genuinely think you did alright. No mids, but two forwards, or one forward, one defender. WCE get a tick in my eyes.

Yep, stoked with no mids and having to waste a pick on Ryan

 

[Harambe Pie]

Tigers bloody killed it tonight.

 

[Great8]

Richmond the standout, Port did well with what they had also.
Quite happy with our selections aswell, seen plenty of the two Sturt lads this year and was impressed by both
