Unofficial Preview 2020 Draft Discussion

[TheFourPillars]

Beau muston. Poor bugger. Botched first one necessitated another go at it.

Beau is a real tragedy I saw him play as a Junior the wraps on him were justified pre knee

 

[Wingnut19]

The player I want with our first pick , O'driscoll is making his league debut tomorrow.

 

[hamohawk1]

Take a punt on Mccartin as a rookie (low 60's+ draft pick). Only 24 so has a couple of years ahead to prove something.

This guy looks the goods.

He just reminds me so much of Bont. He's up to 190cm now apparently. In terms of Upside maybe Hollands has him covered, but the ACL prob makes me want O'driscoll more. He was rated higher in the under 16s too. He's got mongrel and is quick and as athletic as they come. Have a look at his chase down in the All stars game in the first quarter.

If he’s still available come pick 21 or 22 I sure hope GW selects him!

From that quick look at him on that clip some of his kicking looked a lot like how Brad Sewell kicked the ball. Wouldn’t be using a top 5 pick on that type of technique.

Don't think he will last that long. But maybe we can upgrade the pick or trade in another first somehow?

He looks off balance in several passages too. And that is his highlights. Not writing him off or anything but the highlights weren’t that impressive for mine.

Those ‘highlights’ don’t do him justice, he isn’t an elite kick but he is a long and accurate kick most times. Kicking looked really good in the game I saw a few weeks ago in windy conditions.

If He has Mongrel then he should be the no1 target!

We need to add some toughness in this offseason.

Yeah I wouldn’t write him off without seeing him play. A few on here have spoken highly of him.

Where would you have him in draft mate?

 

[eDPS]

Where would you have him in draft mate?

I rate his upside, I have him higher than most around pick 5 or so. He has grown 5cm since last year and going off his last game he looked a little taller again pushing 190 I reckon. Really good country boy aswell and a bit of a character reminding me a bit of Heppell so could be a future leader aswell.

 

[HODGEYROAD]

This thread is going to be our most active one for the rest of the season I get the feeling.

 

[hawkheart]

That was legendary. 16 years ago now.

Before my time. Presumably a BF response to Bucky drafting ... who? Buddy?

 

[hawkheart]

When is the actual draft? Has a date been set?

Roughy instead of Richard tambling

Yep, gotta look forward to something, just watching the under 17 next gen game. Heaps of quality out there.

Is the game televised anywhere?

Tbf a couple of those kicks where on the oppo

 

[WWSD]

Small forwards need to be on the agenda in this years draft. We are already getting a glimpse of what the Rioli, Breust and Puopolo post-era will look like and it ain’t pretty.

 

[Wingnut19]

OK, Think I have changed my mind. I want Tanner Bruhn now, who does this remind you of?
Geelong Falcon boy
Under 16 mvp
Missed his draft year with injury
won Geelong Grammar BnF in year 10
Gun state cricketer.
Is absolute class, something we miss.
Its Hodgey all over.

Been doing some digging and apparently Geelong will throw the kitchen sink to get him, its the reason they traded into this years draft. They want him bad. I think he's our man. Unless we try and fleece Geelong for 2 or 3 of their first rounders? I d be inclined to just nab him. It means the draft is 6/7 deep I think. This bloke is most likely to be best mid out of draft according to Knightmare.

 

[Billyc]

This kid looks classy. The exact damaging type of midfielder we do not have.

Swans will get him but if they finish lower than us they probably get him plus another top 4 kid
