If we trade down maybe, wouldn't be comfortable with pick 5 on him

DGB or nothing when it comes to KPD at pick 5 in this draft. Rather take Phillips at 5 than Reid. Reid is a pick 12-18 prospect.

I am sure we target all potentially suitable players. Just convince them to come. I still remember when we tried to lure Duncan in Ablett's trade. Even Lang refused to entertain the idea and now he is de-listed.
Those were the days...when Cats fans would come in here telling us Lang was the next Fyfe. 🤭

I watch Reid and he is huge, good skills but lacks that 'quick twitch' movement you need to pay in a key position.

He also looks a bit of a finesse / soft player ala his namesake Zac Smith.

I guess you would be happy with McInness for the Pies. Were there any guys you thought would suit the Suns?

JUH is ******* bonkers
 
196cms and moves and jumps like that, incredible athlete.

Weird about Phillips
I'm not sure he's 196. He didn't look much taller than Reef, which has just reached 193. But we won't talk about Reef. He needs to stay under the radar...🤫

But yes, JUH is very athletic for his height. They make the Buddy comparisons for a reason.

But neither did Rioli..

In the last group was meant to be:
Group four
Bailey Laurie
Finlay Macrae
Reef McInnes
Will Phillips
Conor Stone
Jamarra Ugle-Hagan
Maurice Rioli Jr

But I think 5/7 was there.


Or maybe he was there? Looks like 6 of them, and clearly no Rioli. I'm not too familar with Phillips, maybe his hair grew out?

He actually had a man bun in his underage year haha
I didn't pay a huge amount of attention to Oakleigh last year as I just thought Rowell was Rowell and Anderson was just as good. So I only watched the finals and Phillips had a shaved head then so for me its strange to see him with hair haha
 
Doing the sprint on a rubber athletics track is a bit misleading.
Clearly faster than an indoor basketball court where they usually do it?!
Might contribute to a fraction of the sprint times.
Its where all the AFL players do their 2K, at least the pies players do it on this track every year. Not sure if it makes it easier or around the same. They had to do it outside because of covid. Lucky for me, I could go and watch.

Can confirm

My glacially slow 40 time was a couple hundredths quicker on the running track vs the grass field

Speed is speed though, If you've got it it'll show up.

Yeah for sure.
I ran hurdles at state level back on high school - 100% faster on the tartan.
These guys will still be fast though.
