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):

 

[Addy23]

I would absolutely trade next year's second for Draper this year if he's there in the second and we have the opportunity.

Yeah if we pick up Sinn at 14 (which by all accounts is likely), I would trade into second round and pick up Knevitt, Sonsie or Draper if one of them is available

Yep. Not really interested with our first but if the option is there to trade back in that would be great.

 

[Sleezy]

A couple of the draft board posters have speculated that if:
- A bid for Sam Darcy slides to pick 3 or lower
- We'll trade our R1 2022 pick to the bulldogs for 23 & their R2 2022 pick
- Which at a guess would be something like 2022 16 for 2021 23 & 2022 35

- Start With 12 & ~55 (after bids) + JB this year, and ~16, ~34, ~48 (Syd) next year
- Ending With 12 & 23 + JB this year, and ~34, ~35 (WB) & ~48 (Syd) next year

Thoughts? Is getting access to a Chesser/Draper this year worth dropping our first to a second next year? If we're targeting a ruck next year then maybe. They seem to drop lower than everyone expects every year.

I like how we traded out Ladhams and have 1389 draft points to show for it.

 

[dav3]

The guys in the Murdoch media mock draft had us taking Matt Johnson, Jase Burgoyne, and Arthur Jones

We traded out a 2nd round LAST YEAR for Aliir FYI.

Clearly we wanted him out come hell or high water but definitely lost that trade .
Should of kept him worked with him but what is done is done.

 

[Enviable Tradition]

By my calculation Geelong have a pick 50 that they don't have the list spots to use.

We should be offering them something minimal for that.

Hard to see how we do it though if we want to trade our first rounder into this year.

maybe we are keeping that option open to see who falls.

Does that include the future 3rd we received as well

That would be awesome. I really like jones and Johnson fits our list perfectly.

 

[Ford Fairlane]

If Sinn and Wanganeen-Milera are gone before our pick, it's likely Erasmus will be our target.

If all 3 are gone then Goater could wind up at Alberton.

 

[RussellEbertHandball]

The best field kick of the midfielders who get a lot of the ball, that are still there at 12, is who I want us to go for.

The Bulldogs ( and Melbourne 2 weeks later) didn't only show us you have to win the hard ball in the mid field, but you have to use it well, to win the big games.

I think we have great kicks in Rozee, Butters, Amon etc (I think Bergman will get there too).

What we really need is someone who can explode out of the front of a stoppage. Melbourne showed us the value of that (and Richmond in the last quarter of the prelim).

Goater please.

They are solid kicks not great kicks. I doubt their kicking efficiency stats are elite ie top 10% for their positions. You want midfielders who win the ball and can it use it, not just feed it out to others to use.

I want a mid who gets the ball and gets it out the front of the stoppage and into our f50 while its still 6-6-6.

Then teach him to kick like Melbourne did with Oliver.

 

[240volt]

We have no Great Kicks in our Team full stop.
I live in hope that one day we will have some footballers that can kick half as good as Russell could.

Houston when in form is one of the best kicks in the league.

The last few days watching his highlights over and over, I can't help but think, when we will get someone who regularly can a) win the hard ball and b) then use it in an elite manner by foot. We have plenty of players who can do a) but bugger all who regularly do b).

I've never even considered Erasmus surely he doesn't fall into our Laps ? Especially with the WA clubs having 3 picks.

 

[Revan11]

Talk of Hobbs sliding. Surely not as far as our pick?
