Matt Roberts
Arlo Draper
Hugh jackson

If we are going to dream, I'd rather:

Callaghan
Roberts
Hobbs

I have only seen limited footage too, so I'm trying my best not to fanboi too hard on him without a bigger sample size. But I've just seen a really good blend of traits that I think will transition well to the AFL level.

I'll keep an eye out for the decision making side, I can't say I noticed that when I watched him.

The only clips I’ve seen was a game against Sturt. Couple of hand passes good. One short pass made to look good with an excellent mark by team mate off his boot laces. One kick that gets to Keeler who takes good 1/1 contested mark.

Everything else were kicks that didn’t go to teams advantage at all. Very small sample size though. Otherwise no doubt he moves very well and extracts the ball very well too. Fine player who should go 2nd round.For the Crows around that mark, looking at SA boys I would prefer Cooper Murley.

 

[Mutineer]

Hugh Jackson could be this drafts Schoenberg. Goes in the 20s in the draft but could be way better.

Plays more like Tom Powell and could go just as high, might even turn out to be a more complete player than Powell the more exposure he's getting.

 

[Mutineer]

Not impossible by the end of his contract in 2023.

Wallis was the Dog's leading goal kicker prior to their forward line restructure.

Yeah but Mitch Wallis is already there at 28 years old?

 

[Mutineer]

Did you get a touch of a Lachie Whitfield vibe about him? Particularly the way he moves and disposes when at pace? In the small amount of clips that i've seen I saw really impressive burst plays from stoppage and then a super slick disposal at pace.

Really looking forward to seeing more footage to see if that was a flash in the pan, or something that he replicate's. Cause that's something we are screaming for in our best 22

Can't see the Lachie Whitfield comparison, much more inside the contest than Whitfield and doesn't have the precision kicking of Lachie Whitfield either.

Fair enough, I think it was probably the running/movement style that tweaked it for me rather then the playing style. Again I’m really keen to see more from him to get a clearer indication.

 

[Play On Advantage]

Mitch Wallis type role for Sloanes final years

I'm picturing more of a Liam Picken 2016 finals type player

Sorry thought I’d just add some footage as comparison. This is Matt Roberts playing league football for South. What you notice with Matt is that almost every possession goes to advantage - even if under pressure quick kicks are well placed in front of team mate to give him best chance. The last possession really highlights how good he is - running 40m dart inside 50 hitting up team mate. I’ve seen Matt live a few times and this is a fair reflection of his footy

Definitely the leading candidate for my 2021 draft crush. Solid body work, clean ball take, penetrating disposal and a smart decision maker.

We'd be crazy to give away our first rounder this year in any trades. Roberts looks like a future jet

Yeh liked that a lot. Reads the ball really well. Gets in great position. Clean hands, good decisions.

Oh mate, I'm 100% sold on Matty Roberts (was admittedly a little slow on the uptake on him though). Think his all round game is phenomenal, and that long kick to advantage would be a godsend for our more 'up and under kicking' style mids.

I think Hugh shows a touch more toe and dash from what i've seen, and still is equally adept at extracting the pill. But you may be right regarding his ball placement and decision making. Something to watch going forward.

Its certainly not impossible to get them both in this draft, which could be a really nice complementary set of mids. And with Roberts injured for the championships we might not even have to trade up to accomplish it.

Why some AFL recruiters believe the upcoming draft could be a "bit disappointing"

Matt Rendell has revealed that some recruiters believe this year’s draft crop is a “bit disappointing” at this stage.


Collingwood father-son prospect Nick Daicos is widely considered to be this year’s top draft pick, while Sam Darcy – son of Bulldogs great Luke – has shown strong recent form and could be taken in the top three of the draft.

Rendell, who used to be a recruiter, said the depth in this year’s National Draft had suffered as a result of several promising targets being taken during the mid-season draft.

He said the lack of continuity so far this season has seen some players struggle to put a consistent run of strong games together at NAB League level.

“The other thing that has happened in the mid-season draft, all the tall (players) have been taken out,” he said on SEN’s Dwayne’s World.

“They’ve been hurt on the four weeks off for the players to go back to school and local clubs and then they played one game, then ran into three weeks of lockdown.

“It’s been very different for the under 18s, so hopefully they can get some continuity later in the year.”

Why some AFL recruiters believe the upcoming draft could be a "bit disappointing"

“A bit has changed for the draft."

The same Matt Rendell that said Sam Darcy is 197cm in the Dwayno interview that article was taken from....Rendell is that far out of the loop now or he'd know Darcy is now 204cm.

Lions recruiting boss with Cal Twomey was extremely bullish about this years draft. Loaded with mids and above average

Pick 2 is back on the table

 

[Brett Cummings]

Surely if we got pick 2 then we'd have to do a trade with north. I don't expect reid to be productive though, he's useless. He even let port leapfrog us in the superdraft a few years ago. They got rozee and we got jones. Completely outplayed by port.

Good to have you back Mick.

And let's be honest, Reid has never had an offseason as bad as yours was.

 

[DaKids]

Who would want to be remembered as the list manager that traded away Jason Horne?

Ha ha - not happening

What is he going to promise this off season and not deliver.

I see some similarities to Shoenberg. Not a lot of clean possessions (due to the circumstances) but knew what he wanted to do before receiving the ball.

Very good spacial awareness. Knew where his team mates were at all times.

Why would North, or Gold Coast trade it?

he'll cry regardless when horne asks for a trade.

 

[Brett Cummings]

sa lad and the chance of homesickness. unless they arent taking horne.

 

[Golumless]

If Horne is even remotely close to the talent you're talking him up as, North will back themselves in to keep him and just work through that. If it that bad however, he'll fall to us without us needing to do anything.

if he did ask to be traded home it would be to port. he's a fremantle supporter but also said he wouldnt mind playing for the power. never even mentioned the crows. only way he gets to the crows if if we draft him.
