Mega Thread 2021 Draft

[Lore]

Hey guys, scuse the intrusion. Thought you might like to have this resource on your board (mods might like to sticky):

 

[RossFC]

If we get a ruck, or ruck/fwd, it should be with a rookie pick.

 

[Ford Fairlane]

 

[Grave Danger]

Soon as they saw Bailey's Insta.

 

[Long live PAFC]

Is North saying no to trading pick one thus a reflection on those trades (that seem pretty good if you’re wanting a quick rebuild) or on how good they think JHF is?

And if the latter, what are we trading to get him back to SA in 2 years time when he is out of contract but has 40 games and a rising star award to his name?

For those keen on Sinn, is the thought he would be an immediate inside midfield inclusion and offer some much needed pace? Or will he be a slow burn and start on a HFF or HBF? And why do we see him being a better option than say Draper, Erasmus or Goater who may also be available and have more exposed form?

 

[Revan11]

I’m reevaluating my draft board. Mac Andrew was at 20 but I’m seriously considering moving him up. Here’s why:

* would be the perfect 3rd tall/second ruck for combination with Hayes
* I know 2022 has plenty who could also fill the role but none will have the athletic profile of Andrew
* I know his highlights are misleading because he goes missing in games but we would have Lycett’s life expectancy to teach him football. As we would have a very defined role for him, 3 years should be plenty
* If we are building a Rozee, Butters dynasty, you need to have your tall players in place first- they take longer to ripen- then get your inside mids, flankers.
* I had him at 20 based mostly on Port’s needs- didn’t think we needed him as such. It’s really that that I am reevaluating.

The great unknown is whether Lukosius is a real thing or not. If he is, this may weaken my above arguments and lessen the need to push Andrew up the draft board.

Mac Andrew will be gone by our pick. Purely on a needs basis for other clubs. Good news is that allows another mid to slide to us. Hopefully Sonsie.

 

[Revan11]

Amiss should also get to Freo with pick 6(8).

 

[MrPlow]

Such a crud draft hand. Only pick 12 is worth anything.

What makes it worse is we don’t have next year’s first rounder anymore, meaning over the course of this draft and next we have the chance to pick one A grader.

Better rate the existing youff at the club…

Either I've forgotten something very important, or this isn't correct?

Where did you get that idea?

WRONG!

We have round 1, round 2 and round 3 tied to Sydney (original round 3 traded to GWS).

Future picks (so far): Who you should barrack against in 2022

How do we not have next years first ?? This isn't right.

Shut the F*** up, Sheehan- Jace is a dud who wouldn’t attract a bid for a chip by a seagull at a seagull chip auction.

Big ooft. Sorry I misunderstood the Ladhams trade deal!
I shouldn’t post before 7am

Wanganeens kid on the news last night.
Neither port or Ess are going to father son him

All those years debating and likely won’t even get drafted. Such a shame

 

[VineValerian]

Does anyone rate Mitch Knevitt from Geelong Falcons?

Tall inside mid, good overhead mark, plus good speed and endurance (oops, I just thought of [PLAYERCARD]Ryan Lonie[/PLAYERCARD] for a split second ).

Maybe some available with our later picks that could be worth a sniff.

Medium defenders are the last thing we need.

I disagree. I think there will be a heap of late picks/rookies who will be very good players. With so little football played for these kids over the past 2 years there will be some gems that will fall through just because they haven’t had the opportunity to develop.

I did a comparison of Knevitt v Goater. Goater has similar height and athletic attributes and uses them to break from packs. Knevitt prefers to give the first give and doesn’t use his attributes as much. I very much want Goater- he looks custom made for us. Knevitt isn’t in my top 20.
