Autopsy 2018 NAB AFL Draft

[TheJackal]

Interesting that of the four players selected to be part of the Drafted series, three of them will go on to be Saints.

Max King, Jack Bytel and Ben King!

alot of mature agers getting taken now

 

[Joffaboy]

Lol you lot have been trolled

Marlion at 61 then I guess? Does he get passed by Freo twice?

 

[BarkerFan]

Yep.. embarrasing.. North upgraded from 54 to 46 by swapping their 2019 3rd rounder for ours...
Why did we not wait? We could have traded directly with bulldogs... We really looked silly there

ok this trade is even more embarrasing now.. we could have taken Hind at any stage, even as a rookie.. Now we lost a 2019 3rd rounder for nothing

Our club really are not smart

 

[geelong sajnt]

Pace pace pace. This draft could make us or break us. Real needs selections.

 

[Sippa]

speed YEEESSSSS

we definitely need more of that

One minute laughing cos we passed on marlion (so far)

Nek minut celebrating who we did take

Sound logic

 

[Sainteric]

Nick Hind!

"Needs to improve his kicking" well he will feel at home at st kilda

 

[Left_Billings]

Nick Hind is our Adam Saad, very handy.

 

[burningdwarf]

A mature age player who can't kick sounds promising.

what you mean? i was laughing given how much he was linked to our pick. i wasn't laughing because i thought it was a mistake

 

[bird_man]

Pretty sure we already have a plethora of HBF players that can’t kick.

None of them have the speed of Hind, he also plays through the midfield. Would be very handy on the wing

 

[Barrels]

Hind’s kicking is fine. It’s a composure thing.


He kicks at full speed, and only the very best can do that well. He needs to slow a step or two before he puts it on his shoe is all.

[PaddyMcClunkin]

Tall forwards n’ half back flankers.

 

[Darrian Barnett]

Essendon would have picked Hind with 60 if we didn't get him then.

 

[bird_man]

ok this trade is even more embarrasing now.. we could have taken Hind at any stage, even as a rookie.. Now we lost a 2019 3rd rounder for nothing

Our club really are not smart

Don't think so, pretty sure Essendon were keen to take him

 

[BrotherofChunk]

turning up to open training in 2019....

"who are all those guys in the yellow jumpers - is that the injured group?"
"no thats the half back flankers who need to improve there kicking's group"......

 

[Sippa]

what you mean? i was laughing given how much he was linked to our pick. i wasn't laughing because i thought it was a mistake

He was linked at our pick 61 lol we didn’t have the pick in the 50s when we were being linked with him lol

 

[bird_man]

Tall forwards n’ half back flankers.

And a midfielder and a speedy half forward....

 

[mad-saint-guy]

24 year old skinny midget defender who can't kick isn't exactly what I was hoping for.

We are certainly averse to just picking kids who played well in their draft year.

 

[Ekomaira]

we have one more pick in the 70s yeah?

 

[SK_MD_#7]

we have one more pick in the 70s yeah?

Pick 61

 

[StCicatriz]

He was linked at our pick 61 lol we didn’t have the pick in the 50s when we were being linked with him lol

correct me if i am wrong but we had these two picks coming into the draft. its the next pick we traded in today?
