Adam D’Aloia. Does plenty right athletic ablitiy being the question mark. It does matter for a mid in the AFL.

Teakle says hello

I may have had him to high at 12

Yeah, it becomes hard to pick him early after this year, tho I think the talent is still there.

If he’s available 10-20 that’s a awesome chance for someone to take a punt on someone who could develop into a very good kf.

 

[philthy05]

Is Mattaes actually quick, good engine yeah but not sure on quick or explosive

I have no idea on testing etc but eye says he skates away effortlessly.

Everything he does, remarkable or not looks somewhat effortless for him.

sorry - just looking at the drafting threads on the boards. Phillipou also has a late December birthday and only just qualifies for this draft so he is very young. I have no doubt if we don't take him,you guys will be all over him at your pick if he is still there

Big fan. Footballer and leader.

Could use some of those.

Would be around pick 20's so in Amon compo range, however I assume we go best mid with 1st (Clarke, Hewitt, Philipou) , hence if available we may go Lewis Hayes 197cm KPD with the 2nd.

This is how I see it as well. Unless they decide to trade for someone.

Dunkley for a future first? (might be unders) could see them mix it up.

Just don't see it with Dunkley, been watching him a bit more subsequent to earlier rumours and nothing really grabs me about him. Not sure if I'm missing something standout, as people seem to rate him , if he wasn't surrounded by midfield quality ie as per doggies, would he cut it on his own, not sure?

Probably keep our 1st rd pick as the 3 mentioned all look quality kids.

Next’s years 1st is an issue.
Kens still here and things go further south that pick could be Harley Reid or Ashton Moir and that’s a pretty big deal.

I don’t mind Dunkley but I don’t think he’s someone we should be spending a 1st on.

 

[RangaInTeal]

Dunkley is what the Crows need.

 

[Holden Hillbilly]

Recruiters are split on a few top-end SA prospects.

The state’s top prospect is arguably Woodville-West Torrens’ Mattaes Phillipou, who is seen by many as a top-10 prospect. Phillipou had an outstanding first game against the Allies, booting two goals while shining as an inside midfielder. But the belief among recruits was he only showed “glimpses” across the next three matches. That was primarily due to a back soreness that hampered him for most of the Vic Metro game and likely limited his midfield minutes against WA on the weekend.

Norwood’s Max Michalanney, who’s eligible to the Crows as a father-son prospect as his dad Jim won four flags with Norwood from 211 SANFL games, looms as a first-round prospect. Most recruiters spoken to by foxfooty.com.au were pleased with his carnival as he showed off strong defensive capabilities, including his ability to play on either tall or small forwards. Others had higher expectations and wanted to see more rebound from defence.

North Adelaide’s Isaac Keeler, like Phillipou, had a terrific start to the carnival with three goals against the Allies but didn’t have as much impact across the final few games. Recruiters believe Keeler – a key forward-ruck in the Paddy Ryder mould at 197cm – has as much talent as any player in the draft but just needs to work on his consistency. He’s tied to Adelaide via its Next Generation Academy, but the club won’t be able to match a bid on him if he’s picked within the first 40 selections. When he’s selected remains a mystery – but it’s likely it’ll be before Pick 40.

There’s a lot of similarities in the journeys of Adam D’Aloia – one of South Australia’s best players this year – and Jack Graham

– one of South Australia’s best players in 2016 that has gone on to win three flags at Richmond. Like Graham, inside midfielder D’Aloia starred as his state’s captain and No. 1 ball-winner, averaging 24.0 disposals, 14.0 contested possessions, 7.2 clearances and 6.2 tackles to win SA’s MVP award. Despite his numbers and excellent workrate, recruiters believe D’Aloia looms as a later pick for a club seeking an inside midfielder.

Scouts are hoping West Adelaide key forward duo Harry Lemmey and Tom Scully will be able to build confidence across the back-end of the season. Lemmey was quiet in his three champs games before making way for Scully, who kicked 0.2 from seven touches against WA.

Keeler one that will drop I reckon. Still inside the 40, but will be in that 25-40 range, as opposed to higher.

After a champs where he showcased all the different ways he can impact games?

I thought he had risen? Surprising if he hasn’t.

I’ve banged on about it, but he’s just shown so many ways to get involved in games.

I would be stoked if port added him.

 

[Macca19]

I rate him high, I think he's got a bucket load of potential but i've heard murmerings that some clubs don't see him as that first round type

 

[davesnothere]

Keelers issue is not dominating a particular position. He happens to end up there at our 2nd pick after we’ve picked up Phillipou with our 1st and we have to choose between Keeler/Hayes/Lemmey and that is conceivable, who do we pick?

If Sam still here, Lewis.

If not Lemmey.

If Keeler plays some League footy before the year out, maybe…

 

[Macca19]

I think Keeler has the highest ceiling of all of them at this point, but probably the lowest floor too. Its a tough one.

 

[Long live PAFC]

Defenders easier to find than quality key forwards so Lemmey or Keeler. Harry just seems to have had a rough year and never really got started but has the goods and will make it - that being said have only seen bits and pieces. I just think he seems to get it.


Scully seems to have dropped off the face of the earth. Wonder where he fits now?

 

[davesnothere]

Lewis Hayes last week for the Rangers.
Seems to be building as the year goes on.
Could pick up Lewis and Cowan along with Pasini that would be a back line we could be pretty happy with for a long period of time.

“Hayes’ 30 possessions are slightly inflated due to his kick-out duties, but the rangy defender still marshalled the backline brilliantly alongside Verrell. An intriguing prospect, the 197cm key backman doesn’t play as tall as he looks, with a surprising ability to scoop up ground balls and rebound out of defence. Despite this unorthodoxy, recruiters would be very interested at the prospect of a giant, skilful centre half-back, a rare commodity even at the highest level. If he can put on some size and increase his physicality, Hayes will be just about the complete key defender.”

Have we checked out his lung capacity, it’s not like sams is it?

He covers the ground with seemly no effort at all. He's 198cm so a little shorter than Sam. Not sure of his current weight he looks a little bigger than at the start of the year. They'll sort that out at the combine though. Think hes got 1 more representative game with Vic Metro on Grand final eve along with the rest of the Rangers season.

Sounds exactly what we need.

keep Sam happy then

 

[robbo1981]

I'm on board with Hayes with our Amon compo if still available.
Would like us to get another 2nd to take Lemmey.
Obviously alot rest on our trade period but
1st Best Mid hopefully Phillipou
Amon compo - Hayes
3rd Lemmey or Scully
4th best small Forward available

Gees if we got Phillipou, Hayes, Lemmey and then best small forward remaining (or my man Rye Penny), that’s a ridiculous draft haul.

 

[Hot Port]

Let’s turn to draft now. There is no point playing the old guys now.
We’re currently having pick 8, hope we can get to pick 6 or even pick 5…
