Safe option - Cowan
Swing for fences/who knows?? - Keeler
Could be best player in the draft - Hurstwaite
Funniest - Charlie Clarke

 

[Nutjob]

Start it earlier! 5pm start. Why make the kids sweat it out. Bullshit.

Because the TV ratings would be terrible.

Should be done on a Saturday - start it at 3pm

Hayes or Cowan would be fantastic. Hayes a genuine key defender with huge scope for development. Cowan a dashing half back with booming kick.

I knew I’d miss one of them.

Is there something wrong with the afl website or have we traded back our pick 40 to 56?

We traded it to Brisbane because we weren't going to use it anyway
3rd rounder next year + a nothing pick this year

 

[Bay62]

You guys must be stoked to get these two, making it worth trading out pick 1?

Well done and good luck

 

[Roo Beauty]

It’s nice that Harry and George can string a sentence together, unlike Jason Horne-F***wit.

 

[prodigalson]

Some exciting prospects still left on the board.

Although raw and years away Barnett looks a talent, with some mushashi in his drink bottle he could be a really nice fwd/ruck.

Unfortunately we have a few of his type already on our list so won’t be surprised if we pass up on him.

Hayes would fill a list need for us and develop nicely in the magoos.

 

[Gorman2Geister]

Any potential we trade down a few spots for a future second with the view we have zoned in on McCallum and he'll be available later on?

 

[Disco Dew]

So we win the draft right? Two legit guns!

 

[Harris 10]

What are we left with next year, our first and ports first, but what else?

 

[Nutjob]

Should be done on a Saturday - start it at 3pm

That could be an option.

I personally don’t mind it being split over 2 nights with the current set up, but I can understand why some don’t. A 60 pick draft would go for about 6-7 hours. That seems a bit long and drawn out for me.

What I would like to see is live player trading after the draft. You could then shorten each teams time to pick, which would shorten the duration of the draft and it could be done in one day.

AFL Draft News 2022: Night one draft recap, second round preview and updates
www.heraldsun.com.au

They were the picks which were put up for sale.
Amid all the excitement about this year’s draft and particularly the first 10 selections, there were also clubs which called Monday night’s draft a kiddie pool.

Simply, as soon as it got to the trickier picks in the teens, things got a bit shallow.

It was all the talk in the build-up as Western Bulldogs (pick 13), Melbourne (15), Greater Western Sydney (16 and 21) and Sydney Swans (18 and 20) all walked into Marvel Stadium trying to off-load their choices in the back-half of the first round.

They either wanted Essendon’s pick five, or considered trading out into next year’s draft where it is widely thought the talent runs deeper.
Clearly, the Swans’ jury was out about what was on offer late in the first round when the club traded pick 18 to Hawthorn for pick 27 and a future-second and future third-rounder.

That’s not to underestimate the quality at the pointy end of this year’s crop, but there is a growing belief about the significant divide between the top-10 picks and what comes after.
Greater Western Sydney secured their next poster boy spearhead landing Jeremy Cameron

-clone Aaron Cadman at No. 1, Brisbane netted the next Nick Daicos in Will Ashcroft, and North Melbourne pair George Wardlaw and Harry Sheezel will put lots of bums on seats.

There are shades of Patrick Dangerfield (Wardlaw) and Steve Johnson (Sheezel) in the latest cornerstones of North Melbourne’s rebuild.


But there were some who thought the Bombers’ pick five was the toughest call of the night.

For Essendon, it was a difficult toss-up between Elijah Tsatas, the Dylan Shiel

-style midfielder who averaged 34 disposals and one tackle a game, and 192cm onballer Mattaes Phillipou.

While the 186cm Tsatas has a brilliant burst and stole the show at a training run last week, some recruiters questioned his defensive game.

Tsatas will add some electric run and flair for the Bombers as part of a midfield-forward group which will need to become more selfless, team-oriented and in-synch under new coach Brad Scott after 18 years without a finals win.

But they also strongly considered Phillipou, who told clubs he wanted to help change the direction of their organisation and become the top player in the game.

St Kilda will love Phillipou’s swagger, for it is a club which desperately needs another matchwinner more than most after missing out on Collingwood superstar Jordan De Goey

in the exchange period.

There are high hopes for the next chapter under new coach Ross Lyon but he will be left bringing a knife to a gunfight unless the club can add more stars.

But Phillipou is a midfielder who can punish the opposition out the front of the clearance with his sharp hands and penetrating kick in the same vein as Marcus Bontempelli

on Monday night said Phillipou could be the steal of the draft and the one with the most upside.

If that was the sexiest pick, one of the most unsurprising selections of the night could yet hand Geelong yet another 200-gamer.

That’s the way recruiters talk about local boy Jhye Clark who is the rock-solid, dual-sided and totally fearless midfielder who has moulded his game on Joel Selwood.

It was never going to steal the headlines, but at 181cm Clark might be one of the safest bets of the lot and a frustration for rivals that Geelong landed another star, essentially for free, in the Jack Bowes

2 3rds (ours and Melb) and 4th (Hawks)

2 3rds (ours and Melb) and 4th (Hawks)

And we will just trade out another future 2nd

Could Hayes be turned in to a forward?
