List Mgmt. 2022 AFL Draft & Rookie Draft

[Wickzki]

For delivery inside 50, that would be fine. Hoops was soft and quite conditional though.

Think history with Hoops would have been vastly different had we been ultra competitive throughout his career. An absolute cream player stuck on a team where he lacked opportunity to play his best role.

 

[Wickzki]

Brave Bombers breaking records again

Hoping the outcome isn't the same. Sydney lost to North in the following GF.

 

[The Old Dark Navy's]

Fight me at the bubblers after school. Don't tell teachers.

You gonna fight like Hoops? I'm there.

 

[El Topo]

good to see clubs with academy and f/s picks being forced to cough up, if only there was a Davey bid as well

 

[Jeremias]

Next few picks will be very interesting. No doubt Nick Austin will be working the phones overnight.

Suspect others may outbid us for the Giants next pick but with a Davey bid surely on the horizon I'd be speaking with Essendon. If a bid comes in the next 3 picks they'll be keen to offload 25, and we may be in a good position to give them what they want.

As a guide, picks 46, 57 and 67 are worth 582 points, which is very close to the discounted points value of picks 22-24. There's a deal to be done there, with only minor tweaking required.

We can then use next year's picks to trade back later in this one as required.

Hotton is the one I'm super keen on here but there's some talent left on my board.

Hotton, Hagan, Van Es, D'Aloia, Ryan, Teal, George, Clarke, Barnett, Burgiel, Bond, Cowan, Campbell, Munkara

All sit in my top 30 and all remain available.

Not as high on Hayes or Cowan but I am expecting both to go soon.

deal with *?

 

[Elmer_Hauser]

I understand the 'strike whilst the iron is hot mentality, especially from all of us success starved, long suffering Blue Baggers here (esp Millenials and Gen Z types, so sorry friends x) but I am of the steadfast belief our list is almost good enough to challenge for a flag next year, however injuries and other undetermined setbacks may arise next season) and we should not try place all our chips in the one gambling plate (least Burt Reynolds' wouldn't)

We should not be pressured into panic trading or drafting cause of moves like Hawthorn's.

This whole instant gratification type of drafting and trading is what arguably cost us dearly in the past.

 

[Revenant1995]

 

[Michael Jezz]

Ooh GWS have gone early on Jones, bold. Must see him as a forward who can weave into some stoppages.

I know the rumour was we'd look at Jaxson Binns - though maybe at a later pick than 29 - and that would match up with our typical draft profile. Not sure he's an AFL midfielder, but can kick and kick well under pressure.

Binns is a running backpocket or a lead up fwd like fogarty has been tried

 

[Jeremias]

deal with *?

If we benefit from it, absolutely.

Really like this. Despite it being Essendon you don't knock back an opportunity to improve your list when there's next to no cost to do so and it benefits both parties. On the surface it's very win-win and would annoy the other clubs with how sensible it is. So if this were possible I'd be all for it.

Essendon don't need that many points, they're already holding 49, 54 and 59.
If the bid comes, they'll be wanting a future pick, and some extra points. F2 + #46 would be around the mark. Other clubs will be keen too.
Not looking so likely that a bid comes, let's hope it does.

 

[The Old Dark Navy's]

Keep F1 now. As it stands, it is #10 as we only have the last season to go on. Not banking on a top 4 spot when future trading for a 2nd rounder.

 

[Ninja Worrier]

Hotton, Hayes, Burgiel, Barnett, George would be nice but realistically they are probably off the board. Probably Husthwaite, Cowan, Davey*

Leaves Binns,. McCallum, Clarke, Teal

Wouldn't be opposed to saving our future picks and doubling down on the other elite runner.

 

[Jimmae]

Order of preference from those who I like in the next batch of names:

Charlie Clarke
Davey Jr
Keeler
Burgiel
Hustwaite
Hotton
Teal
Cowan
Gallagher
Gruzewski

 

[WalshistheGOAT]

Would be very happy with any of Hotton, Hayes Cowan or Hustwaite if we trade in for that extra pick.

Id to see Binns with our 2nd pick, he has real smarts up forward playing the Fritsch role and also works his ass off when playing wing. George if he's still on the board when it comes around

 

[FitzroyBlueBagger]

Some decent players still on the board

Hayes, Barnett, Hotton, Burgiel, Clarke, George, Dowling, Hustwaite, Ryan, Cowan, Keeler, Scaife, Szybkowski, Scully, Gruzewski, Hagan, Drury, Schuback, Gallagher,

I’d have Magor within that group as well, very talented kid, just a natural and pure footballer….

 

[Earls Smother]

Looks good

I can't be the only one that thinks that could be an Olivia rather than an Oliver at the start of that?

 

[I bleed Blue]

Love what Sydney did last night. Played GWS like a fiddle and pulled Hawks pants down in that trade.

Agree. Next year's draft predicted to be stronger. It would be foolish to leave us short next year - both from a trade and draft perspective

 

[myblueroan]

Shades of Houlihan about Hollands, maybe it's just the hair. Can only hope.

Said the same.

 

[HavUEvaSeenTheRain]

unless we are getting two picks inside 30 our future first should be off the table imo. 46 and our future second should be on the table for Burgiel, Hayes, Hotton, George, Cowan and maybe Clarke but that’s it.

 

[Wickzki]

Love what Sydney did last night. Played GWS like a fiddle and pulled Hawks pants down in that trade.

And got payback for Jordan Dawson when the Crows wouldn't have anticipated such a high pick for Max.

 

[Blugazi]

Predictions:

• Trade our F2 for a second round pick.
• Grab one of Burgiel, Hotton, Cowan
• Pick up a key defender, Ethan Phillips mentioned somewhere.
• Select a project ruck or key forward.

 

[Arr0w]

We got the gut runner, now add genuine speed/burst and at least one KPP
