2019 Draft

[Cotchy9]

Philp is a Richmond supporter too. Liking the sound of taking him. Not many inside bulls are quick. It’s a rare combination

 

[Toadvine]

Reading the write up on Philp makes him sound like an Elliot Yeo type. Now if I could just find some vision of him...

The Nab league ap is shit.

 

[Cotchy9]

We also remember the last inside bull that went at 19 that was a Richmond fan and we overlooked, one N.Fyfe. Although he wasn’t a bull when drafted

Not sure he was considered an inside bull at that age.

Fyfe was a skinny under sized FF that weighed 63 kgs dripping wet and most people thought 2kgs was due to his ears
Nobody would have pegged him to be the inside player he is today.

I have been on Cooper Stephens as our 1st pick since last year but never thought we would have had a chance with a pick outside top 12/14 but missing the year has him at our level.

AFL have really dropped the ball with draft coverage.

All most of us is going off this year is write ups

 

[Tiger_Of_Old]

Agree fully about a Houli replacement (although the club would have high hopes for Naish). Will Day would be my choice there if he gets to us. Rivers would be very good but might be gone. There's also Jeremy Sharp but he might be a reach as he's expected to go mid 20s.

As usual I reckon the Tiges will pick who they see as next best player available on their board.

Yep.I think if it all stays as it is i think our options will be Day/Rivers & Sharp.
Luv Rivers but my money would be on Day.

KPF are bloody hard to find, and as stated in Konrads book they mostly come very early in the draft. We won’t have a high pick for awhile so our best bet is to target one in FA/trade.

As for KPD I don’t believe it’s that dire, Balta and garthwaite have another 1-2 years of development before Rance moves on. Astbury, Grimes, Broad and Flossy will be around to guide them too for awhile. We also have access to Baxter next year who is CHB and has talent, and the club will already be developing him for a KPD post.

We can easy pick up another with our 3 middle picks as well.

They sure are - especially the A grade ones. But then look at guys like James Podsiadly!

Balta hasn't looked much of a defender yet and IMO he could end up being a wingman/midfielder given his athleticism, and potentially backup/3rd ruck. I'm hoping CCF/Chol become 2nd forward to Lynch/backup ruck to Soldo or Nank.

Garthwaite I think won't make it. Not big or strong enough as a KPD, not fast enough to be a mid-defender like Broad. Not enough mongrel either.

I think it's absolutely worth drafting a bloke like Emerson Jeka so late in the draft.

They want in game trades and drama but don’t support it by giving the draft pool any coverage. In draft pick swaps mean nothing if the general no idea who they are. It will be another draft night of idiots like Montagna spruiking kids based of stat sheets and combine results and bloody Sheehan telling us every kid is a star.

What are the chances Richmond trades up to a top 3-15 pick?

19
38
39
41

+ future picks

quite a lot of firepower if they find a player they like

given the list is pretty good currently maybe quality over quantity

A lot of people saying such and such may be gone by this pick is overlooking the live trading aspect of it now. It might be a lot more of this the 2nd time around?

I would be looking to get to pick 9-12 range in an attempt to get Kemp

Shirley it hasn't come to the price being 2 first round picks and 2 downgrades for an undrafted, untried player not even considered in the top 2, by some not even in the top half dozen, players in the draft year.....That is a Silvagni move. Is that you Stephen?

Reckon we’ll end up with someone that hasn’t or hardly been mentioned.

How many punters predicted Higgins in 2017 or RCD in 2018!!!

Both were expected to be gone by our selections so nobody dared to dream

its like Brodie Kemp in this years draft falling to our selection

If that eventuates there’ll be some very happy Tiger fans

Pod is one in how many? There are always exceptions to the rule, but the rule exists because it happens 99% of the time.

Balta hasn't looked much of a defender yet and IMO he could end up being a wingman/midfielder given his athleticism, and potentially backup/3rd ruck.

Baltas best position at under age level was CHB. Cevap_Roll, who is obviously a big deal in the Croatian community, has previously said Richmond have told Balta he is Rances long term replacement. Took Alex 5-6 season to become the god like FB he became.

I'm hoping CCF/Chol become 2nd forward to Lynch/backup ruck to Soldo or Nank.

CJ could be the guy to replace Jack. Chol needs to find a harder edge if he wants to make it. All the skills in the world but tries to avoid body contact

Garthwaite I think won't make it. Not big or strong enough as a KPD, not fast enough to be a mid-defender like Broad. Not enough mongrel either.

Pace might be an issue, from memory he has about 3.05 second 20m sprint, which is about average. But strength will come (took Astbury and Rance years) and mongrel is no problem, Grimes and Shedda have both said he is one of the most competitive players on the list.

I think it's absolutely worth drafting a bloke like Emerson Jeka so late in the draft.

It’s always worth drafting a tall we should be taking 1 a year, with maybe a ruck every 2-3 years.

also trying to do this on my iPhone with the new update is a ****en disaster. What a shit show Apple, who I presume are recording my every keystroke!

Could happen.Someone always throws a curve ball.

Looking like there could be 3 possible bolters in the draft
Sam Philp , Kysaiah Pickett , Mitchell Georgiades

You have to make the deal good enough for the other team to accept.

pick 19 and richmonds next years first, are hardly first rounders too.

I like Green for sentimental reasons but would be interested trading up for Young or Kemp too.

It sounds like a few people are seeing KPickett racing up the rankings

I would take Green over Kemp & Young, Kid will be a beast

Lets hope Blair Hartley is already in his ear with the #9 jumper in his hand

 

[captain cotch 9]

I want Pickett.
That burst of speed and Shepard got me so hard I think i impregnated my wife 18 times

I'm secretly hoping you are Alex Rance.

Agreed. Green will be a Dangerfield clone but with the Richmond DNA cancelling out the dickheadedness.
