[BRL121]

no thanks useless

It was a joke.

 

[CrowCro]

He was talking about James Borlase was my understanding.

He said ....”value one on one more than endurance. Speed would be nice on the lead but with Worrell, Doedee and McAsey probably not a problem”. He put McAsey in the speed category.... the guy runs on a spot

 

[Danger Zone]

Yeah, Richmond sticking with Dusty has really come back to bite them.
I personally couldn’t give a rats about players after they walk off the ground. Simple fact is Chaise Jones is our highest ever pick and got 3 touches in the last game. Him being a “ripping kid” is not helping our football team one iota.

'Chayce' Jones is not our highest ever pick. And he is only two seasons in, with one of those coming amidst a global pandemic. Willing to give him some time.

 

[CrowCro]

I tend to agree if the Geelong rumours are true that we will likely end up with pick 11.

This won't entirely be a bad result for us as realistic expectations need to prevail & if we consolidated picks to trade up we can land up to 4 top 15 picks this season and also end up with an extra 1st rounder 2021.

However it is very early & id say Geelong have higher proprietys then I wouldn't discount Port having a decent crack before Gold Coast come in with the $$$$

Cameron & Daniher will set the tone for silly season

Daniher is a perfect example of an overrated player because of his family namesake and being a Victorian. Brad Crouch is worth more than him.

 

[1990crow]

He said ....”value one on one more than endurance. Speed would be nice on the lead but with Worrell, Doedee and McAsey probably not a problem”. He put McAsey in the speed category.... the guy runs on a spot

You misunderstand. Worrell, Doedee and McAsey are all outstanding intercept marks.
With that in the backline the occasional loss of Borlase man in traffic can be covered. And McAsey will be better in the long run.

 

[CrowCro]

Yep, you're right, North would split our two first picks. Don't think it'd matter hugely, we'd get 2 of Thilthorpe/Hollands/Phillips.

1. Swans - McDonald
2. Adelaide - Thilthorpe
3. Dogs (after North bid) - JUH
4. North - Phillips
5. Adelaide - Hollands

Sydney then fare the best with Cambell and McDonald.

 

[Brett Cummings]

Imagine letting sydney have mcdonald. They can f!@k off after that tippett bs.

 

[CrowCro]

surprised twomey has bruhn and henry before philips in the draft.

It’s about upside, not what yr producing now. What a young player can become

 

[Brett Cummings]

I wont be disappointed if we take bruhn or phillips at 8. Just want the best mid at that pick. Im surprised because a lot have him in the first few picks.

LOGAN MCDONALD HIGHLIGHTS | 2020 AFL DRAFT PROSPECT

interesting highlights package.

Positives:
- creates space to mark
- good kick

question marks for those who have watched more of him than some highlights:
- I didn’t see him crash any packs - does he have this in his game as it is harder to create space in the afl
- does he have a burst of pace - couldn’t tell from the footage as the space he created seemed to be more through agility in close quarters than speed

 

[Brett Cummings]

Daniher is a perfect example of an overrated player because of his family namesake and being a Victorian. Brad Crouch is worth more than him.

Not hard to be worth more than a packet of twisties.

 

[arsene wenger1]

1 adelaide: hollands
2 adelaide: mcdonald
3 nth melbourne: thilthorpe
4 sydney: campbell
5 hawthorn: granger barass
6 gold coast: no idea
7 essendon: hopefully not philips
8 adelaide: philips

We got draft experts claiming Phillips as the best mid in the draft, plus Matt rendell saying he’s another Rowell. Might be a bit under rated on this board

 

[Danger in Texas]

The more I think about it, the more I want the Parfitt rumour to be true. One of the best pressure midfielders in the comp already at a young age, his disposal count will only improve if he gets more opportunity (like he would here rather than at the Cats)

If we remove Gallucci, Brouch, Atkins, Gibbs, Poholke, Knight, Hartigan and Mackay from the list, that leaves 8 list spots. I'm gonna assume Borlase and Edwards will take up two spots as NGA/FS guys, while Newchurch goes to the rookie draft

Leaves six slots to be filled. If we get band 1 for Brouch and band 3 for Atkins, that should leave us with (if you take into account Williams compo) 1, 2, 10, 22, 23, 35, and then picks we'd use to grab Edwards and Borlase. I'm unsure what compo Daniher will get, so I'll leave that extra Essendon pick out

I'd happily trade our 2nd for Parfitt and the WB 2nd for Hately. I think that's a pretty fair price for both, all things considered

That leaves us with 1, 2, 9 and 22/23. I'd be hoping for this:

Bid: WB - JUH
Pick 1: Adel - Hollands
Pick 2: Adel - McDonald
Pick 3: NM - Phillips
Pick 4: Syd - Thilthorpe
Bid: Syd - Campbell
Pick 5: Haw - Grainger-Barrass
Pick 6: GC - Cox
Pick 7: Ess - Bruhn
Pick 8: Carl - Henry
Pick 9: Adel - O'Driscoll
Pick 10: GWS (Williams) - Carroll
Pick 11: NM - Reid
Pick 12: Freo - Perkins

Then select Brayden Cook with our start of 2nd round pick.

Hollands - dynamic midfielder/forward that we've been lacking for, well, forever
McDonald - marking forward that will provide a good foil to Fog and Berg
NOD - athletic midfielder that could turn into a real nice, tall clearance player in time
Brayden Cook - goal kicking wingman. We don't have a lot of midfielders/wingers that can go forward, so it'd be nice to have one waiting in the wings

I'd feel confident going forward if we brought this talent into the club. Leaves us with a nice mix of players to choose between going forward

north will take thilthorpe guaranteed. no ben brown anymore.

henry is ass ain’t goin top 10

 

[Draft Bored]

Question: If we bid on Campbell, can we trade with Sydney for pick 4 or are we excluded from being allowed to trade with them? I feel like we're excluded but I can't remember.

 

[SellarStardom]

I'm not sure I see the hype in McDonald, to me he is too similar to FOG. Not a pack mark, either on the lead or out bodying type marks whilst not particularly quick.

I would rather Thilthorpe after Hollands or Phillips

 

[CroCop]

Taller version of Fog I agree . Also has chunky legs. Again I’d rather Granger BArass and turn him into a forward ala Naughton . Has more speed , agility, mobility and jumping ability then not McDonald and Thilthorpe.

 

[Danger in Texas]

henry is ass ain’t goin top 10

Disagree. I like Perkins better personally but think Henry provides more of what Carlton need

 

[Danger in Texas]

north will take thilthorpe guaranteed. no ben brown anymore.

Will be interesting to see where Phillips slides to in that case. Don't see Sydney taking him, maybe the Hawks do but with Mitchell/O'Meara/Worpel already on board it's probably unlikely

 

[crow2crow]

Yeah, Richmond sticking with Dusty has really come back to bite them.
I personally couldn’t give a rats about players after they walk off the ground. Simple fact is Chaise Jones is our highest ever pick and got 3 touches in the last game. Him being a “ripping kid” is not helping our football team one iota.

just to be clear this is my perception of what our club values/does and not necessarily my opinion of what is right or wrong.

we definitely need mongrel that’s lacking as per your martin case in point.

Would rather Perkins at pick 9. He looks elite and is very balanced. Seems to have lightning pace and is a goal kicking mid.

 

[Thetrader15]

I can't see anyone paying Daniher $750k.

Other than Carlton and North

I think you'll find Fischer McAsey is our highest ever pick...if you ignore Brad Crouch that is.

 

[GROTTO]

After careful consideration of the players available in the draft this year, Ive decided I need Picks 1,2 and 3.

So if we lose Brouch to get Pick 2 and somehow we need to pull Pick 3 out of our arses.

Hollands, McDonald and Thilthorpe would be massive for the AFC.
