Has nowhere near Dangerfields power. He is small stature also.Sell the farm to get NM’s first pick. JHF is Dangerfield with added composure.
Agree. Roberts totally overshadowed tonight but he did have a good game and did some nice things. Will be a solid AFL player imo..horne francis will be next levelWatching live at the ground tonight JHF is elite - which was obvious prior but holy heck he is super impressive - Danger vibes - also Roberts at the same age super damaging.
Sampson has some highlights - not sure why he missed AFL kept South in the game in the first half.
Dangerfield is another 6-7cm taller..Has nowhere near Dangerfields power. He is small stature also.

West Adelaide4, 2022/1 to GC for 3, 19, 2022/2 (GC don't need all these picks)
GC 2022/2 for Dawson
19, 23, 37 (or Kelly compo) to Pies for 2022/1
Then assuming GWS would prefer a KPP,
2, 2022/2 (Giants) for 3, 2022/2 (Crows).
Then we just need JHF to get past North where we hope JHF does his bit.
2021 picks are JHF, Butts and Strachan upgrades
2022 picks are then pies 1st, giants 2nd

FWIW what's the difference between pick 2 and 4...if you are intimating we had a chance to get horne with pick 2 because there is no chance north are not taking him at pick 1
You are dreaming if you think they are passing on horne francis.There was no chance North were not going to take Elijah Hollands or Logan McDonald last year at pick 2, and look how that turned out.
West AdelaideExactly ....North taking Will Phillips shocked the footy world .....Logan McDonald was the obvious selection for North who are still saying they need a KPF this yearThere was no chance North were not going to take Elijah Hollands or Logan McDonald last year at pick 2, and look how that turned out.

West AdelaideIt's interesting .....North Take Phillips last year, when theu should have taken a tall in a talls Draft .....this year another quality mid is at their pick & they will take JFH no doubtYou are dreaming if you think they are passing on horne francis.
But id argue that there was a clear top 5 last year and they selected inside that one of those in that top 5 rated. This year its daicos, horne francis and now darcy as a so called clear top 3. Blind freddy can see how good horne francis is and if there was any doubt dont you think a performance like last night might have sealed the eeal?People were incredulous when they picked Phillips last year too. Not sure why people think it's impossible they take that Callaghan lad instead, who could well be the better player, given how few of you have actually seen him play. I sure haven't.

West AdelaideI'm not seeing the hype on Darcy .....reckon he'll slip, may not get bid on till #7 ....HAW or CARLBut id argue that there was a clear top 5 last year and they selected inside that one of those in that top 5 rated.

Phillips was very very highly thought of.I don't recall there being a clear top 5 last year, I recall there being a clear top 4 with Thilthorpe, DGB, McDonald, and Hollands - Phillips was in the next bunch and was often listed as being taken between 5 and 10.
Darcy has the skillset but I agree, he's not a top 3 pick.I'm not seeing the hype on Darcy .....reckon he'll slip, may not get bid on till #7 ....HAW or CARL
If people think Mac Andrew has some physical development to go (I disagree) ....then Darcy is worse and with very narrow shoulders .....Darcy is 4 years away from playing
West AdelaideNo, Horne won't be overlooked .....but I understand the point NTRabbit was makingPhillips was very very highly thought of.
If North pick Callaghan over Horne they should sack their recruiters.
Pretty sure it was Thilthorpe, McDonald, Hollands and Phillips exclusive of the academy kidsI don't recall there being a clear top 5 last year, I recall there being a clear top 4 with Thilthorpe, DGB, McDonald, and Hollands - Phillips was in the next bunch and was often listed as being taken between 5 and 10.

So was WalshHe was highly thought of, but not as highly as the others, if I recall because he was seen as a vanilla accumulator type midfielder.
West AdelaideYes good skills at junior level, but can't compete at AFL level for 4 years min ......Bulldogs got stuck with another father/son a number of years ago that never put on weight .....Cordy I think it wasDarcy has the skillset but I agree, he's not a top 3 pick.

Phillips will be a good player. Yeah I agree i could see North taking Callaghan and Horne slipping to Gws. I'm sure North would love Horne but not for only 3 or 4 years before he comes back to Adelaide. Horne going to Gws would be a good result for us (if we can't get him)as he would be easier to get back home.People were incredulous when they picked Phillips last year too.

How many SA lads come home ??Phillips will be a good player. Yeah I agree i could see North taking Callaghan and Horne slipping to Gws.
