So we could have drafted Brodie Kemp without moving up.... and we didn't take him😩

That's where I'm at right now so leave me alone.

Wells is always spot on with young kids who break their leg pre-draft - just look at how well Darcy Lang worked out at pick 16. All praise to overlord Wells.

Yeah, every kid who breaks his leg is exactly identical to a kid who broke his leg 4-10 years ago.

In fact when you break your leg you become instantly a carbon copy ability wise of everyone else to ever break a leg.
 
My concern is we have built a midfield next gen with no real super pace except Cockatoo, who's body can't get right.

Constable - potential to be an extractor, despite 191cm, not an imposing frame, poor endurance, not quick.
Kennerley, Brownless, Stephens - those 187-188 types, neither huge or small, big engines, but not exactly quick.
Fogarty, Parfitt - nippy, but not explosive.
Narkle - potential to be explosive
Cockatoo - explosive but can't get his body right.

I would've thought Robertson would have all of these guys covered for upside, pace, and endurance.

Every inside midfielder with injury issues in their draft year is also apparently a carbon copy of Joel Selwood.

I basically happy..how could I not be as both were players I mentioned a bit .... what we do with the next two picks real interesting

It could have been worse. I'm not mad on either player we picked but the fact that Robertson wasn't taken with the next few picks placates my disappointment a bit.
 
So you could almost say as it stands
PA goes Worrall or Gould Bianco
Bris Highly into in Robbo
Adel go Worrall or Gould
Adel Bianco Jones

Be very interesting to see what happens to our next 2 picks. Wonder if we try and trade up with our last pick m
 
those that think danger is a bad kick might wanna rethink that after you see him kick, one of the worst ball drops you'll see from a player rated as high as him
Ball drop is not everything... he can kick both sides +50

Better than some of our mids that can't kick more than 40

cooper fair bit bigger than lang lol, he was also highly rated coming into the year where darcy wasnt, sick of this comparison too
 
I dont mind Stephens as he is probably less an injury risk than Kemp and a good player but i dont like De Koning..i do think he is probably the best tall left but he is raw and a big risk and he is nowhere near the best player left imo....robrertson and rivers to name a few are much better imo...by all means pick a tall later for needs but go best avail early.

gonna have to agree to disagree, dont think he can kick 50 on both and doesnt really matter when he can hit a target with a 20m kick

This going to sound really bad but if I were an athlete I'd rather break my leg then tear an ACL. Copper looks pretty fit
