Watching a bit of the SA v Allies game on this morning and Roberts looks very early Daniel Hanneberry ish. Really solid ball player. Wouldn't be disappointed if we picked him

Worried about Van Rooyen going early:
He’s a must. If we got 3 first round picks, lm getting him with the 3

I wouldnt be disappointing if we got both Long & Knevitt with our 2 2nd rounders
certainly an area of need.
7. Erasmus/Ward
15. Goater/Jvr/NWM
17. Jvr / Goater /NWM
26. Long / Bazzo / Knevitt
28. Long / Bazzo / Knevitt

A+ Result

Almost no chance either Ward and Erasmus get to 7, most likely it’s Hobbs/whoever’s in the next group (though our guys will go with whoever they deem best available no matter who it is I think, that’s if we even keep pick 7). So you would have us use 3 picks all on tall mids? Overkill much. We already have RCD developing and you want to add 3 more. That’s a lot of list spots taken up by guys developing to play in a similar position.

I rather hope if we’re taking 5 picks we go: 2 of Amiss/JVR/Gibcus(if he slides)/Williams/Bazzo, 2 inside mids and 1 NWM type that’s an elite outside ball user.

It’s exciting having such a good draft hand, so many possibilities.
 
Reckon we need an elite small forward. Ours suck.

Yep. Spot on. Josh Rochelle is the best in the draft, he’s mercurial but plays more like a medium forward. He will be available at 9 and should be about that range. If all the top quality mids are gone and we can’t move down, would you be happy with him?

Either than or draft Sinn and push Balta Stack forward I guess
 
If we end up with 7 15 17 26 & 28 in the draft here is my current preferred options for each pick.

7 - Ben Hobbs 183cm 80kg Inside Midfielder

The kid just knows how to get first hands on the footy and when put in an AFL system should only improve on that. Would be a nice 1-2 punch alongside the bigger RCD at the coalface and would also allow the likes of Graham Ross & Dow to play more of a hybrid role.

15 - Jacob Van Rooyen 195cm 91kg KPP

With Chol and CCJ departing there is a glaring hole as a young developing KPF. Van Rooyen already has a decent size about him and has shown he can hit the scoreboard with consistency. Would be a perfect foil for Lynch when Jack moves on.

17 - Nasiah Wanganeen-Milera 187cm 70kg Outside Midfielder

NWM provides that touch of class on the outside that would have Lynch & Jack/JVR quite excited as they led up to the ball carrier. A little on the skinny side, we've got time to allow him to hit the gym and put on some size. With the likes of the Riolis Bolton Stack Pickett Parker as mentors the kid would have plenty of support around him.

26 - Rhett Bazzo 195cm 81kg KPD

With our current KPD stocks being an aging Tarrant Balta Miller (1 game) & Nyoun (0 games) I think it's important to bring in another young option that we can develop over the next couple of years for when Tarrant retires. Bazzo is a capable shutdown defender, who can also take intercept marks as well.

28 - Jack Williams 195cm 91kg KPF

From 15 games at WAFL colts level Williams kicked 40.24 while averaging 14 disposals & 6 marks a game. Alongside Van Rooyen it would be a similar tactic to what the Hawks did with Buddy and Roughy all those years ago when they brought in a couple of young KPPs to develop even though they still have some serviceable types running around.

If we could some how manage to pick up these 5 our mini rebuild/refresh will be in great shape as we would have addressed a number of areas that are currently big weaknesses in terms of our developing talent.
 
Hobbs is too slow for AFL footy. Has no speed leaving the contest. Another Corey Ellis in the making I reckon.
 
Reckon we need an elite small forward. Ours suck.

Do you want a pressure forward or genuine goal kicking option? I mean the elite small forwards are likely good at both but they're few and fair between. Personally think you need one small forward who is elite in at one and the other who is elite at the other to complement one another.

Yep. Spot on. Josh Rochelle is the best in the draft, he’s mercurial but plays more like a medium forward. He will be available at 9 and should be about that range. If all the top quality mids are gone and we can’t move down, would you be happy with him?

If we can't move up he or Amiss at the two I like, assuming Erasmus is taken by Freo. Disagree that he plays more like a medium forward, especially with the way his game will likely translate at AFL level. Lacks the forward pressure of most small forwards but makes up for it with his craft. Referring back to my point above to Tigs2010, I think a combination of Rachelle and MJR would work well together.


Either than or draft Sinn and push Balta Stack forward I guess

Stack should be forward regardless. Could be a superstar at either end but a player who is capable of kicking a bag and still having 20 touches should be developed as a forward, much easier to find a hbf elsewhere. No greater evidence than Daniel Rioli being an absolute liability as forward and resembling a footballer as a defender.

Based off of 2 minutes of highlights?

That would be a great haul. Maybe one too many KPP - would rather a mid at 28 - given it seems no one really rates the talls in this draft. Although I do like the name Jack Williams, he really sounds like a real KPP.

Agree with most of these apart from Hobbs who I need to see more of. I have Amiss and Burgoyne in the mix as well

In those 2 minutes he didnt show onxe any capacity to scoot away out of a contest. For me the first 3 or 4 metres to be able to get away from the contest are vital. He doesnt seem to have it. He looks like a plodder at the moment.

Dud delist by the sounds of it [emoji849]
