List Mgmt. 2022 AFL Draft & Rookie Draft

[Aphrodite]

 

[Jimmae]

We have plenty of genuine midfielders: Walsh, Cerra, Kennedy, Cripps, Dow, Carroll, Hewett.
We also have a group of guys who can pinch hit as mids: Fisher, Docherty, Cuningham, Martin, Curnow, Williams, Fogarty.
We’ve added immense running power across the midfield.
Seriously most clubs would die for our crappy midfield mix.

The problem isn't the individual talent, it's that you could throw a blanket over all of them and Cuningham, Dow, and Williams would run away with the blanket while the rest watch arm-in-arm.

Schizophrenic choices on our part, Saints played it perfectly and killed it. I wish we'd learm.

 

[Walshy_The_Goat]

How many list spots do we have left? Would love for us to take a ruck.

None, aside from the rookie spot Ed’s going to take

 

[Stamos]

Should have been delisted and placed on the reserves list if we wanted to retain.

That is what's happening. He's been delisted and we're picking him tomorrow.

Love that his question mark is "young" lol

Is he 202, 201 or 199? I've read all three in the last ten minutes.

On SM-F926B using BigFooty.com mobile app

202cm according to Austin

My take:

Rapt with the Hollands pick at 11.

Rapt with the trade we pulled off to get Pick 30 after bids for our future 2nd. Really didn't think we could get a pick that high. And then really liked the Cowan pick. I picked him way back as a player i liked. Ranked him around 20 at worst. In fact was 17 0n my latest Board. And we have an ageing core of HB's.

Bit non-plussed with the Binns pick. Can play. I liked his game in the Champs GF. Just a bit surprised we needed/wanted him that high. Still a solid pick, but....

Lemmey was a smart pick. High upsize boom bust with a 50ish pick.

Pleased we could pull off that extra high pick and especially for a very fair price.

Good job Austin and co. We undoubtedly needed extra run and we got it done.

TW, Who would you have picked with pick 32?

Cheers - looks pretty content to me

 

[gandaal]

The only complaints I had was that we didn't pick the players I wanted, that most of the players I wanted had already been selected by other teams, and that Sydney didn't bid on enough players.

Other than that it was a great draft. Would do again.

 

[The Return of the Paf]

Time will tell but what the Saints just managed is the best tactical drafting I've seen, especially given the relatively limited picks they had and the fact that it wasn't a deep draft.

Balance means nothing if you draft players that are rubbish and won’t make it.

Our spine and talls are the least of our worries to be drafting in the first 2 rounds.

We have Harry and Charlie as genuine ready to play key position forwards who could play a role in a team expected to play finals next year. Lemney is a good pick up but won’t be ready to play next year.

We have Weitering, Young and Durdin as genuine key position backs. McGovern, Kemp, Plowman and Marchbank are not capable of playing key position back at AFL level. Akeui is years away from being considered for playing AFL level in a finals aspirant side.

I’d hazard to guess that every other club has more than 6 genuine key position player on their list. I can only hope we intent signing someone like Ethan Phillips and/or Zac Sproule on as a rookie or supplemental selection. Otherwise we look very short of options if the first picked guys aren’t available.

We don't have a list spot

 

[gandaal]

If you're praising what is historically the worst recruiting team in the AFL, while bagging out us, maybe you should possibly reconsider your opinions.

Just a thought.

 

[jackn]

I don’t mind him but is he not too much of the same? I would like someone who can take the number one forward or someone who will command the number one defender.

So with pick 40 something you wanted a forward that would get the number one defender ahead of Harry and Charlie? No pressure Lemmey

 

[Canyouhearthedrums]

Anyway, I rate Lemmey in this draft range, but I rated Keeler a lot higher. Would have been happy to have both.

Is Keeler the ruckman zoned to Adelaide academy?

 

[BigFrizz36]

Mick Ablett wass asked on fox footy which team that he thought had fared best attention draft - his answer was Carlton.
