News 2022 Media Draft Rankings & Phantom Drafts

[weltschmerz]

Players like Pendlebury, Bont, Cripps and Danger didn't have as strong exposed form as others in their drafts. There's a lot of projection involved in drafting.

Risky to assume that you can pick up a bolter without much form and he'll definitely be better than someone who's been top 10 all year.

Possibly, but they're all risky to some degree

Dont worry Ed, we'll take you at 20 or 26

Trouble is eagle recruiters really want locals this year due to more prevalent go home factor so we might take Allen at 9 or 13 which could be overs. Our club is a bit scared of Vic metro players this year.

 

[Westcoast88]

My top 6 are:
Ashcroft
Tsatas
Ginbey
Wardlaw
Cardman
Sheezel
In that order.
I have no idea why you traded out pick 2…. But Busslinger at pick 8 would be my pick. He is a good QB/style third tall, who could become a CHB in time.

Clark would be the next choice but I wouldn’t take him as WC. Mackenzie or Jefferson would be decent options.

We gave up pick 2 because of the go home factor.

 

[Westcoast88]

lol. Ed Allan a tall? Yeah I guess he is... a tall midfielder that is.
Which makes it 2 mids and a key back i'd say.
You blokes would be stoked with that haul.
As i rate Jones as the most under rated player in the draft. He's a ripper!

It's not too bad I guess, Allen a bit of a reach though.

Do you think we would pass on Humphrey (VM), Phillipou (SA), Mackenzie (VC) and Clark (VC) that could be available at our pick 9 instead of Allan? At 13 would they go Allan over Hewitt? Seems a bit crazy to me.

They'll take in to consideration who the club's between 8 and 12 are more likely to take.

If they want both, and they believe Allan (after speaking to Hewetts' and Allans' managers) is more likely to be taken between their 1st and 2nd picks, they'll take Allan.

I think from what I've heard we would pass on Phillipou at pick 9. Humphrey is VC not VM. Allen could be picked at 13 but I hope not as i think it's paying little overs and he might be there at 22. Clark I think we might take at 9 if he is available and Ginbey is gone to Gold Coast not sure about the others I think we have a strong bias to WA boys this year so Busslinger, Hewett, Ginbey will be high priority. I'd be shocked if we picked Phillipou just from what I'm hearing.

Going off that it could be something like Busslinger at 8/9 unless Ginbey is there and then Hewett at 12/13.

What are you hearing about Phillipou?

 

[RanaNaved]

What are you hearing about Phillipou?

Making shit up

 

[Westcoast88]

Making s**t up

NO need to be rude mate.

 

[Westcoast88]

What are you hearing about Phillipou?

Heard he does not want to go to WA, not sure if it includes other interstate clubs or not though. I have some contacts linked to the club through business dealings.

I doubt Eagles would touch Phillipou anyways.

Why's that?

 

[eaglespremiers]

That's not what he said in a prior interview.
He has previously stipulated "to be honest with you I'd be more excited if I was to go interstate. There's a lot of unknown with that which really excites me. So I'm completely okay with it".

Yes and JHF said he would be happy to play for anyone last year and what happened there ????????????

 

[Ash1337]

Why's that?

It's pretty known they want home grown talent with their picks and there's 6 in the top 30 to choose from. Busslinger, Ginbey, Hewett, Allen, Jones, Gilbey.

 

[RanaNaved]

That's the media speculating more than anything.

I can just about guarantee if he's on the board at their 3rd selection WC will take him
