Opinion 2019 Draft Time Capsule (Open)

[Arr0w]

TerryWallet HARKER (Same as last year)

With all the mock drafts doing the rounds, how about we try something different. Pick 5 players that you believe will be considered top 10 in years to come. With your 5th pick, try and select a smokey as such, someone that is not considered a 1st rounder at this stage.

I will kick it off with the following

Lukosius
Smith
B. King
Blakey

Smokey (Sparrow)

 

[gandaal]

Brayden Crossely 10 games
Ed Richards 21 games
Aaron Naughton 18 games
Hunter Clark 15 games
Connor Ballenden 0 games

Went for some different names. Only Connor was missing in action. Brayden playing 10 games as a 19 year old ruckman is pretty good.

 

[HARKER]

Thanks Arr0w

Top 5? O.K.
Confident with;

1. Walsh
2. Lukosius
3. Max King

4. Blakey

5. McLennan. My smokey and the reason why is that I saw a combination of Laird and Docherty in him. Not flashy and not a mid, but just made things happen.


Would love to have Rozee, Rankine and one or two others involved, but these are the guys I feel have the best chance in making the biggest strides

OK 2019

I'll play it safe this year.

Walsh
Rankine
Smith
Caldwell
Smokey: Sydney Stack

 

[Jimmae]

Lukosius
M.King
Smith
Stocker

Hamill

Last year:

• LDU
• Cerra
• Bonar
• D.Fogarty
• Patmore

LDU had back issues, Cerra and Fogarty jumped straight in, though the latter still needs to work on his tank.

Bonar worked his way into the GWS 22 nicely, and Patmore is set to get a proper senior shot this year after playing some weird roles in the SANFL.

William's a smokey? Good try Terry

He's every bit as big a smokey as McHenry, Mclennan, Sparrow, Taylor, Briggs and Stack who have all been mentioned.

Buggered if i know why but he seems in the 20's to 40 bracket with the above lot and behind most.

You know what it is like Terry, unless they see a kid dominating/contributing straight away, they don't rate them

I easily see him as a 1st round prospect

 

[GapInIkonPark]

Top few ...

Walsh
B King
Caldwell
Rankine

Smokey ...

Woodcock

 

[Gingerbread man]

Rankine
Rozee
Clark
Smith
Blakey
Expect them all to be 200+ game player barring serious injury

 

[murphster]

Walsh
Clark
Smith
Rankine

Smokey Tyron Smallwood (or if I can use him as he is not 18 Sam Fisher) Although they both probably won’t get drafted, hence Smokey’s

 

[Coona Blues]

This is the most "bustproof" draft I can remember. So many quality players through the first couple of rounds, and there are only
a couple I see the slightest risk with, so listing would be rather pointless.

 

[SkyhorseTamer]

Sam Walsh
Izaak Rankine
Jye Caldwell
Riley Collier-Dawkins

Smokey - Ely Smith

 

[LemmingMaster]

Walsh
Rankine
Jones
Butters
