I didn't want to get into a debate about Priddis - was just providing some counters to people using Priddis as an argument against drafting Constable.
Please. There is quite a few people who couldn't handle another 10 years of another priddis.
We still haven't gotten over this one.

Carry on. I'm enjoying the different thoughts except for this one lol.

Looks like he could be a star half back/CHB. Not sure if he has played forward enough to be a Kennedy replacement.
I’d be willing to take him at 13. Got the size and natural football instincts to move forward. A couple of years training/playing with Kennedy will go a long way. Only drawback is that if he was playing at EP he would more than likely be playing as a defender

On Naughton, what's to say TB or Gov don't eventually play forward full time? TB was swung forward in a WAFL game and if I recall he had immediate impact. I'm all for a mid - big time, but it's hard to pass over best available and we do have flexibility in our talls if we think outside the box.

Maybe just a stupid idea of mine after a few pints

Bailey Banfield has only spoken to Essendon and Guelfi Adelaide so I know WCE are very quiet but haven't spoken to either player ...looks good for Lamb well that's two that may not be on our list but you never know with WCE especially with the Pilbara lad lurking somewhere .

I haven't heard much on him. Where do the "experts" expect him to go in the draft, do you know.
I like the kid and think he has a scope for much improvement.
I have a mid second to late second grade on him.
He has some real points of difference and will cause some serious mismatches.

Agree with ArdentEagle about the "coordination lag" and the sizeable potential upside once he comes out of the "giraffe stage".

Has very good hands and at 195cm his pace is a real asset.
Needs a bit more poise as he hurries his kicks ( but with time the poise will come , and alsohas an odd ball drop.

Really like his hunger for the contest and he preparedness to chase and tackle.

Watched him up close live in the WA V SA game this year at Subiaco and I liked his niggle and attack on the ball.

I would be happy wit him in 32 & 37 pick range.

He is raw but there in a lot to work with and a lot to like about his game.

Not sure where you got the " only spoken with Essendon " mail from but I was told five Clubs Essendon ( correct ), St Kilda and us, dont know who the other two were.
To have got a State Combine invite several clubs are interested.

Bailey was interviewed saying he has only spoken to Essendon and that's what he is hoping for but who knows .

Surprised Callan England and Jake Patmore aren't coming up in people's conversations. England took out the Claremont colts B&F in their grand final team, and is a beautiful player to watch, and Jake Patmore is a jet.

IMO England would be a good rookie prospect .
