Unofficial Preview 2020 Draft Discussion

[Brishawk]

For what it’s worth I rate Henry ......he is as dynamic as Holland’s imo .

I think Henry suffers from not enough highlight videos on you tube

 

[Brishawk]

I s that the bro of the Geelong Henry?
So he's a Mid too? had some notion he was a KPP.
Is he, quick who breaks the lines & is elite on both sides of his body?

He is a mid-sized forward but also plays back. Based on last year some watchers had him as capable of the wing. Got some physical presence so maybe a mid but without games you would only be guessing at that potential.

Let’s not having a running commentary of the Swans game in here.

I’ve not seen the same kicking strength in Henry that Hollands has. Hollands has vision that is first-rate. Henry better overhead tho.

We must somehow manage to obtain another 1st round pick in this year's draft. The more I'm reading about and watching footage of this year's crop of 20-25, the more I'm thinking it runs pretty deep.

Two 1st rounders plus Connor Downie, and things are looking good.

1 ugle hagan wbd
2 sa kid, forget his name adel
3 wa kid, mcdonald north
4 phillips Sydney
5 Campbell sydney
6 Hollands Hawthorn

Actually so angry that Sydney get two bites of the cherry

Edit: hold up, geelong are doing a 2019 west coast

Won’t the Swans need to trade their first rounder to get a look at Daniher?

Swans would have won today if Clarko didn't piss off Papley. He's deliberately missed. 5 times.

I guess, if * match a FA bid

Fair enough didn’t realise he was a free agent, get ready to see another 10yr contract.

 

[PAOKTSIS]

The more I think about it, the more I'm comfortable with the fact that the player we're interested in drafting will be available at our pick 4.

Or we're of the view that we'd be happy with either of the top 5-6.

Hence we weren't too fussed with dropping from pick 3 to 4 today.

as long as we don’t draft DGB with the 4th pick

Splitting pick for for 2 picks between 10 and 15 could be a possibility.

Agree.

This is purely based on the highlights footage, but he just seems like a 3rd tall rather than a pure KPP. We don't need that type of player. We're screaming out for speedy midfielders and KPP.

Spot on , his a 3rd man up which we have plenty of. Use it on will Phillips apparently his got some speed so sounds good.

Doesn't seem like a bad idea.

I know it's a contentious issue, but I'd also really consider trading one of our better players to bring in another first rounder.

Either way, a very interesting off-season is coming up for the future make-up of our club...

 

[VandoHawk]

While our win against Gold Coast was great viewing it likely means we won’t have access to Hollands even if he slides slightly. We’d be hoping that a) Adelaide do not get Pick 2 for Crouch and b) North Melbourne rates Campbell high enough to bid on him. Unfortunately, I think these things will go against us.

You could shuffle around the first few selections but I think McDonald, Thilthorpe & Hollands will likely all be unavailable. Sydney’s Pick 5 will determine who's available for the next tier (I'm guessing Phillips or Barass).

Assuming the ‘worst case’ scenario:

Pick 1 (Adelaide): Riley Thilthorpe
Pick 2 (Adelaide Crouch compensation): Elijah Hollands
Pick 3 (WB matched bid): Jamarra Ugle-Hagan
Pick 4 (North Melbourne): Logan McDonald
Pick 5 (Sydney): Denver Grainger-Barrass
Pick 6 (Sydney matched bid): Braeden Campbell
Pick 7 (Hawthorn): One of Will Phillips, Tanner Bruhn, Oliver Henry, Archie Perkins, Nikolas Cox, Nathan O’Driscoll

 

[TylerDurden]

I've conceded it'll be Bruhn or Phillips. We'll now miss on the absolute cream. We need to look at the next tier. O'Driscoll may even be a bolter.

 

[HAWKSBESTEVA]

Sad times even worse if McDonald or Holland’s fall to 3

 

[HODGEYROAD]

That'll be tough to swallow given we've had to put up with a season of shite.

 

[HAWKSBESTEVA]

That'll be tough to swallow given we've had to put up with a season of sh*te.

We were pretty much shit for no reason, waste of a season.

 

[WWSD]

What is wrong with picking Bruhn with pick 4 if he's selected? We need more midfield depth.

We need a bit of everything, so hopefully we just nail our pick whoever it is.

Imagine this is 2004 and the people upset about winning wished we got got that lucrative pick 3 instead of 5, no Franklin for us.

Complete different situation, that is a poor take
